Global warming alarmism is about justifying more government meddling and has nothing to do with science http://www.petitionproject.org...https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
The US need for fossil fuels is no less when you implement regulations.
So any less production in the US will have to be compensated by imports from foreign countries.
Lovely countries like Saudi Arabia, what do you think they care about the environment?
Of course all government meddling causes misery, even in the rare case where it achieves the stated goal instead of causing the opposite result. Which is the common result of regulation.
Security agencies raised several alarms about this before the election.
What did Obama do to stop it?
I guess after the US attacking democracy in so many other countries, one finally managed to return the favor.
There are very good and rational reasons to be against DMCA
I don't see any to be in favor, unless you're a big corporate record label and want to hold down your competition.
Not important to you.
Games allow people to vent their emotions, instead of using violence.
It can help develop skills and foster creativity.
Game development pushes technology further.
People waste their money on all sorts of things:
- Fashion
- Alcohol
The biggest waste is government. They are parasites on society.
The biggest drivers of economy and innovation are happiness and freedom.
Government is the worst enemy of both those.
I don't think we need special rules for muslims, or any government meddling.
Why not ridicule the stupidity of their religion? It worked for Christianity.
Thanks, I like your definition of these words, makes sense.
Maybe I should take things more lightly, it's better if words never provide authority.
The problem of people respecting authority too much is separate and worth fighting anyway.
Christians often get criticized for saying evolution is only a theory.
When a theory is really very well supported by evidence, as evolution is.
But can we really complain when something like this, which is clearly an hypothesis, is called a theory.
"String theory" seems the biggest offender to me.
No wonder people tend to describe any idea they have as a theory.
Where's your evidence that Russia hacked the DNC?
If they did it's part of a treaty Bill Clinton signed with Russia where they both promise to help each other solve crime.
All the information WikiLeaks has provided has been verified to be accurate.
So nothing can be blamed on Russia or anyone else, the Democrats fucked things up for themselves, by being corrupt.
Do you think it's impossible for politicians to avoid that?
What will happen to BitCoin if the energy cost of mining BitCoin becomes more expensive than the coin you get?
Will you just have less miners and people using the coins already mined?
What you need is a less corrupt government. You're not going to get there by creating a few hurdles. The rich are the smartest people in the country with the most to lose and to gain, they will aways find a way around your hurdles. It's naive. What you need is to reduce the power of your government.
"They warn the positives of CO2 are likely to be outweighed by the negatives."
Like the negatives of CO2 are permanent. The increased green will mean more CO2 is taken out of the atmosphere.
I never understood this panic about CO2, it's harmless, there are so many pollutants that are obviously harmful.
Seems to me this is done for women, because they don't want their husbands to spend money on porn.
This is my attempt to understand religion: https://docs.google.com/docume...
Has used political correctness and 'respect' for muslims to stifle the anti-islam debate.
Also governments can't take the moral high ground because they are corrupt.
All power corrupts, we'd be better off without governments, no power to abuse.
Unless you've got enough religious nutjobs, then you just need enough power to keep them from forcing their religion on everyone else.

It's been going on for a very long time.
Now we just have better technology. Macron did it too.
Or do they tap phone lines as well? Meaning they will get all fax messages anyway.

I don't see any to be in favor, unless you're a big corporate record label and want to hold down your competition.
Is anyone actually in favor of DMCA laws and why?
It looks like big corp buying laws at the expense of the people.

But hey, the Chinese are free to waste their money on it if they want.
Are you one of those retards who still believe the establishment media is anything but fake news?

Of course this will only be used for the betterment of mankind.
Not at all for controlling people and hiding government crimes.

As grandmothers are more active on Facebook the young flee from it. Hopefully this will only speed that up.
I'm totally in favor of free markets and companies trying to make profits. But the government should not be trying to guarantee profits for them.
Why the downvote? You may not agree with it, but it's all rational argument...
Can't he make much more money by selling it to Microsoft? It seems this is priced way too low.
Protectionism is only a benefit to bad companies, good companies will suffer.
