Nor can your really say that "all" scientists agree on this.
My point is mainly one of lack of information climate models are improving, but for them to truely be correct they will far more data then is availible at this time.
Mostly they would need a control case to compare the effects with. So we need to build another earth without humans on it.
So we need to get meglomanical mouse to construct some sort of Chia Earth
The southern states were annoyed that a president could be elected without a single southern state voting for him. (Annoyed is a mild word really. Enraged would be closer)
The dividing issue was slavery, but it really was a clash of cultures between the industialized North and the agricultual (and yes slave dependent) South.
Personally as a southerner the stars and bars is mostly about a sense of history from a time when the social contract that keeps the nation together broke down. Its like an old scar over a bad wound. A reminder of why our union is more important than our personal views on the ways a country should be run. I think that is a view that many down here share about it. Which is why there was such an uproar over getting rid of the flag in South Carolina.
Some, yes, give lip service to rallying around it again and regaining our "lost" independance. They have as there battle cry "The South Shall Rise Again". My response to them is typically, "Yes it shall, and the rest of us are working on it so why don't you get off your ass, go to school, and make something of yourself."
This said if the flag was totally barred, its possesion illegal, I myself would probally embrace it even if I had to do it under the motto of "The South Shall Rise" just because I see the need to protect my country, and if there was ever a USA that banned the flag it would be a USA that is no longer a country I could support. I would take up arms against my brother Americans to protect my ideal of America where a person can do what they believe is right even if it "offends" others or causes "emotional distress". That however would be only the last tatic of someone who has done all they can to reason with the "tolerant" bigots that declare all that hold different views from them to be intolerant.
America is just to large and powerful for it to be used as a single nation in abstracted games since whoever had it would either have an advantage due to its production or a disadvantage due to a fixed amount of units per country per turn.
And what happens when the local dictator seizes control of all the replicators to make weapons and food for his soldiers, and his friends?
Or the local religion declares them to be the tools of the devil?
Or the complexity of recreating a replicator causes the pattern to be corrupted?
Oh wait I forgot this is magic technology. It never malfunctions and is always availible to anyone anywhere even if they are in such a back-assward place that hasn't even invented toothbrushes yet.
While the research used statistical analysis based on past elections and demographics, how else do you verify that a paperless voting system is working properly?"
Exit polls.
While the results differed from the early exit poll numbers once the total number of actual voters is known the polls become much more accurate due to the statistical processes involved.
Frankly I wouldn't rate anything coming out of Berkley as anything more that a partisan distortion. (But that is just my personal bias.)

The point of the link is to be viewed from sites you aren't sure about so you would need to open it from untrusted sites for it to matter.
Yeah.
Nothing to see here move along.
Does not affect Firefox.
Not to be a troll, but it wasn't about slavery.
It was about representation.

I think that was more of a game balance issue.

Sigh.

Imagine what we could do with a beowulf cluster of overclocked New York Times!
At one point every scientist believed that the world was flat. Strangely it turned out they were wrong.
Capitalization is the difference between "Helping your uncle jack off a horse" and "Helping your uncle Jack off a horse"
Actually you are missing some commas there also.
Should be...
"Helping your uncle, Jack, off a horse"

Feh.
Walmart will just switch to selling bulk matter and replicator patterns.
Until someone noticed that it was printed out by a color printer.
Oh and look there is your serial number encoded in nearly invisible yellow pixels.
Or maybe one that runs off the CD so doesn't format the hard drive when the unsuspecting user just clicks through the prompts.
Bah just make the condoms out of carbon nanotubles.
Mmm microscopically thin and blocks things smaller than a virus.
Huh.
Thats strange this post was blocked by my adblocker.

I would prefer super intellignent shades of the color blue.
Yes!

That all of them aren't coders.
120 people seems to include all the artists and map designers as well.
Art works a lot more smoothly than coding when you have a large number of people.
The reason it gets less dense is because it is phase changing

The only reason they are doing it is because they won't start to be effected by its limitations until after it has been ended.
Meanwhile they get a nice little substity out of it.
