Hey Pegg, you've got a bit of something brown there on your nose.
I would pay TRIPLE ADMISSION if JJ replaced all the headache-causing lens flare with just 5 minutes of thought-causing idea.
I'm not knocking lens flare because I'm smug. I'm knocking it because it fucking hurts my goddamn eyes and leaves me with a half hour headache after the movie ends. No way am I seeing this in 3D.
While I'm griping... has JJ Abrams ever done ANYTHING without dragging fucking time travel into it eventually?
The universe developed intelligence as a way of making entropy wind down faster... which will destroy all intelligence... which is a tragedy because the winding down was necessary to create us... and the universe WANTED TO SEE US SUFFER.
Considering that "dutch oven" is a term that is literally older than you are, it is downright stupid of you to brand anyone who misses your silly slang defintion as an aspie.
No, it all comes down to "why do we care who solemnizes a marriage? It is a legal contract between two individuals, covered by the laws of the nation state in which it takes place." In Massachusetts anyone can solemnize a marriage upon payment of the appropriate fee.
Converting methane at the bottom of the ocean to CO2 in our air is a bad idea. The only way it's a good idea is if you assume the methane would end up in the air anyway, which is only true if warming is unstoppable (in which case the hydrates are doomed to melt by themselves). So, if you argue burning hydrates is a good idea, you've implicitly accepted that warming is real and unstoppable. Which is something most "drill, baby, drill" folks tend to deny.
This only makes sense if the warming is unstoppable and there's no way to prevent the bubbling. Taking methane out from the continental shelf and burning it ADDS greenhouse gas. It only makes sense if doing nothing would allow all the methane to escape anyway.
I have numerous times seen OS/2 ATMs REBOOTING. If they "were started once and just kept running, and never needed to be rebooted" then why did I see an OS/2 startup screen?
any EA game, ever again. As if we needed any more reasons. EA games were fun, once. We need to remember that with fondness and respect, as we scatter the ashes of its burned corpse so it can never infect us again.
Since the heat "locked up" in black holes hasn't disappeared from the universe, just become locked in a black hole, no, the average universe temperature doesn't drop.

If you use up screen time with pretty colors and snappy writing, by definition, there is less time for careful exposition of complicated ideas.
or 5 billion inane Slashdot comments per hour.
I prefer the open bar.
Built them with your own bare hands, did you?
How about enormous aboveground supercapacitors? We could call it .. cloud storage.
If you're on your fourth dementia already, your brain probably has enough holes in it to carry current and function as its own LED.

It looks like he took a search-and-replace axe to Time Cube.

I call bullshit. I have definitely seen ATMs rebooting.

You are Stephen Baxter, and I claim my Space Mammoth.
I had a fairly rich friend (Cherry Hill, NJ) with a microwave oven in ... 1979, I believe.
Yes, and swimming pools are kept clean while the Pacific Ocean contains dangerous predators and sometimes raw sewage. No thank you.

No.
