You would think that, however Article I, Section 8 over rides that via several decisions of the Supreme court.
To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;
Webster's American Dictionary (1828) defines commerce as:
an interchange or mutual change of goods, wares, productions, or property of any kind, between nations or individuals... by barter, or by purchase and sale; trade; traffick... inland commerce... is the trade in the exchange of commodities between citizens of the same nation or state.
"The Commerce Clause is intended to give Congress the power to regulate all commerce and trade at the international level as well as in certain applications at the state level."
> So we need to shift the blame on movies, computer games, music, you name it.
This has been going for on for at least the past 100 years. Americans historically love to play the blame game. Some made up bullshit excuse instead of finding & treating the root problem. One small set (or sect/group/cult) of society tries to blame an inanimate object for all of society's woes and spreads their propaganda to anyone who will listen.
Every "next technology" is always scapegoated.

Shoot the messenger instead of listening to the message!Sarcasm: Yeah let's ignore the problem hoping it will go away!
What a sad, dysfunctional, and completely fucked up society we live in.

There is that old joke...
There are 2 problems with C++
1. Its design 2. Its implementation
C++ started out as an awesome C with classes extension! Every C++ programmer should read these 2 classics:
* The Design and Evolution of C++ * Modern C++ Design
Today C++ is an over-engineered design-by-committee that unnecessary includes everything and the kitchen sink (translation: clusterfuck). Basic problems of idiotic archaic baggage such as "long long", lack of a proper binary literal (which took years; over-engineered user literals*), macros that aren't type safe, no standardized name mangling nor run-time functionality to query a mangled function name, etc.
C++ when used sparingly can be a great tool. A balance between the simplicity of C and the power of C++ abstraction is ideal.
There are many things that Science doesn't have a clue about:
* The 2 missing fundamental forces * White Holes * Actual Intelligence (not that joke that passes for Artificial Ignorance) * Bi-Location * Teleportation * FTL * Mineral Consciousness * Plant Consciousness * Animal Consciousness * Time Travel * The true purpose of dreams * The Soul * What happens before life * What happens after death
At least these stupid troll articles will finally end in 2024 when we no longer have to worry about this crap.
If you spent less time flapping your lips and more time listening to you mind and body you might actually develop a relationship with your higher self. But since you apparently already know all the answers on how to communicate with your sub-conscious there is no point in having a constructive dialog.

The price of vanity has never been cheap.
Uh NO. Fuck Gary and his idiotic 8.3 filename convention -- it set computing back 20 years.
My old Apple DOS 3.3 filesystem had 30 character filenames WITH spaces in it.
ProDOS had even 15-character filenames and directories.
CP/M was total shit.
That's a really beautiful description!
Please mod parent up as insightful.

You don't actually have the first clue about consciousness do you?

Relationships.
The sole reason any of the universes exist is to teach consciousness about relationships.
Interesting. You wouldn't happen to remember who the speaker was by chance?
I've heard his show only a few times years ago. Too negative, circumstantial evidence, and full on nonsense conspiracy theories for my liking.
Cheers.
I've never played Sid Meir's "Alpha Centauri". Sorry.

Science will discover them once we can see Quantum Energy and the flow back and forth between black holes and white holes.
Geo-Thermal and Ocean Waves are better non-polluting infinite renewable sources of energy.

Why does someone else's free will over ride his???
It doesn't apply to drinking yourself to death, to smoking yourself to death, why cancer??

Kurzweil's Singularity is a nerd's wet dream. 2024 will show what nonsense it is.

Sound frequencies below 20 Hz is omni-directional -- in layman's terms that means you will feel it more then hear it.
Oh look at that, even modern movies such as Wall-E have "deep bass"
Basically you don't know what the hell you are talking about.
> Then why do most the religious/atheists people try to push their ideology
FTFY. Not everyone has an agenda.
Insecure people are insecure. Fundamentalism / Zealotry knows no bounds -- be it fundamental theism, or fundamental atheism.
Those that do, are doing it because they think they are trying to "save" you.
> Most audio systems out there cannot reproduce much above 16Khz
Don't you mean 20 Hz ??

There is only _one_ path to The Source / God / All-That-Is / etc.
The path YOU take.
Along the way you may discover things that work, and things that don't work for you.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results.
If a particular path (theism/atheism) doesn't work for you, find a different one.
All roads lead back to Know Thyself
