    I am wondering if it can run XBMC. If so that would make it useful as you could control it with an Android phone.

    There is 4.2 grams of protein in a 5 ounce serving of broccoli and 22 grams in a serving of beef, a serving of ground beef being 3 ounces. It's about protein per serving and there is no question that meat rules.

    I'm a carnivore. I eat plants very seldom. I'm sure it means I'll never see 90 years but my Dad is 90 now and seeing him I think I'll be good with about 70 or so. I eat meat because I like the taste. If they can make the bugs taste like a grilled medium rare aged black angus ribeye steak then count me in. If it is like most of the bland tasteless shit veggie lovers always prattle on about they can keep it. I see no point in suffering just to live a little longer.

    They developed the system for the war effort originally. Thus the secret classification.

  9. Maybe we could send someone to negotiate with them. They can go over and give them whatever they ask for in return for an end to the conflict. When they come back they can declare "Peace in our time!" They'll be a hero....for a little while.

    The cause is that people are fucked up. A large number of western young people have flocked to the ISIS banners. These people are largely from middle class backgrounds and good families. Many are from Muslim families that fled the same area because of the bat shit crazy fuckers currently causing all the hell there. I know most Muslim people want to live in piece but there is a sizable percentage that think Sharia law is peace. There is no reasoning with those. That so many people from so many backgrounds flock to it shows that it's not any one thing feeding this insanity. I doubt there will ever be peace on this Earth as long as humans remain on it.

  11. We keep losing rights to good causes. Pretty soon we'll be out of rights.

  12. You don't have access to ISIS's view point? Have you not seen the dozens of video of beheading they show? Have you not seen them ranting all over social media? I haven't heard a single rational statement from a single ISIS leader, ever. I remember when the PLO were the big thing (yes I'm that old) and they actually made an attempt to reason with their enemies. They had a goal and that goal didn't include the subjugation of everyone on the planet. ISIS want to subject the world to Sharia law. Their leadership has stated this over and over and if you haven't heard it then you're either deaf or have your head in the sand.

    I don't want my router putting out a lot of power. It's more secure if it's not reachable from outside my house. I already use wire where I can.

  21. I pretty much agree. The problem with construction on the moon is you will be in a gravity well. It's only one sixth that of earth but still a problem. Best to build in high orbit and take it one step at a time. I hate to think of working on a project on the moon and realizing some contractor sent the wrong size panel for a module under construction. It's not like you can just drive over and get the right one.

    You should look at the definition of tolerance. You don't have to like something or someone to be tolerant. Hell, you can despise someone and still tolerate them. Tolerate means that even if I hate your fucking guts I just leave you alone and go along to get along and keep the peace. A person that does that is by definition "tolerant."

  23. Hell, as long as everything is majick we could just grab a passing asteroid and mine it for metals to make the spacecraft.

  24. I noticed when I was vacationing in Hawaii (Oahu) that houses there cost a bitch load of money. A dump that would sell for 30 grand here was over 300 thousand there. I can't see how you could possibly live on Oahu at 15 dollars an hour.

  25. I saw one video of buses loading up in Turkey and it looked like a defeated army. That's just what Europe needs. I can't wait to see it.
