Of all the naff extrapolations we get from pop-sci journalism, the one that shows unchecked population and consumption growth colliding with the limits of a finite resource base is one of the least naff.
"Stop throwing all your shit away," is a new technology. So is, "stop packaging things that don't need to be packaged." So is, "we'll snip your vas deferens at birth, and reconnect it when you're 35. If you pass a few tests."
So yeah, we'll have to come up with something, something other than, "xbox and doritos are a substitute for adult behavior."
Can you give some examples that affected more than 0.001% of the population?
Because while those were sensational and revealing, they're not nearly on the scale we're talking about here. They indicate that someone was stupid, but not necessarily that we are all stupid.
That isn't a justification for open disregard for people's rights. Nor is it justification for allowing criminals to run rampant. Try again, part of the problem.
One thing I noticed was the flash as some of the material crashed back into the sun.
Yup. Never seen anything like that before.
By far the most impressive part of this most impressive video.
Have to wonder what sort of process that involved. Massive billion-ton smear of plasma the size of a planet, yet still essentially gaseous, slapping into the surface of similar plasma but at higher pressure, at ridiculous speed (even accounting for the speed multiple of the video). Was the flash all electrical disturbance, or was there some nuclear-collision activity?
Zune was more a marketing flop. All of those music/video player things are fungible, from a utility standpoint. I've had them all, and the one I still use is a little 2GB Sandisk Sansa Clip, when I'm not just using my phone.

That only works if you don't enjoy using Chatroulette...
Only as long as they are paying for solar upgrades for everyone.
Feel free to flail about and justify another world war to satisfy your feelings of inadequacy.
Germany's a land of dopes, and proved it twice. Never again.
You're denying the holocaust.
If by "supposed good" you mean "bullshit but seemingly plausible", then probably. Especially if they paid by the address.
You do of course know this gives you a license to steal.
Same reason you have to lock your doors or carry an umbrella. Random actors don't care that you think they suck.
If you want to be a target, go right ahead. If you don't, then stop acting like one.
But the corporations they worked for who profited from this fraud haven't. Bill them.
There really isn't any necessary.
The phrase "never again" means "never again".
Germany is on the world's permanent "shut up" list.
And bill the removal to their designers.
They once tried to ban not being German.
I say we don't listen to them any more.
I bet there was at least one salesman who regretted, just for a second, not having won that account.
Nope.
There's no profit in that.
Fortnightly sacrifices on the giant altar at the center of his gold-clad city, however, are more likely.
Save him having to fly around to get on organ waiting lists.

I'm laughing. My ass isn't falling off, but it's on the schedule.
The only certified PMP I know couldn't find MS Project with a map and a computer with only MS Project on the desktop.
Sorry, budget for half a body. IT guy is still up.
Pretty much. Or they're supposed to. That's part of what your FICA pays for. Not that they're any good at it.
Hey. IT guy. Bad cable or something on the server in the crawlspace. Get that, will you?
This is almost exactly what I was going to post, except I would have put the "fucking" 4 words to the right.
Good luck. The only certified PMP I know has been unemployed since we fired him a year ago.
Get some project management experience and then apply for the job.
