Hm, one of the platforms on which those games will be available is sort of from that lineage... (compare DC controller with original Xbox one; S controller and X360 aren't that different?;p )
PS. And that NASA "misplaced" the blueprints is just a myth...
While thermodynamics doesn't change, new tech would allow operating conditions requiring huge modifications anyway, if you want to exploit that new tech. Plus Chinese rockets aren't very similar to Saturn...if anything, they might be similar to von Braun designs by way of German engineers who ended up not in the US, but USSR.
"Everything about that sentence is wrong"; equating singularity with only big ass black holes, a bit convoluted meaning of "about to", and "puff!" being suddenly an explosion which could harm you while you were far enoug not to be ripped apart by tidal forces (assuming it was a notable black hole after all)
"Charge and angular momentum" aren't that hard to come by near supermassive black holes, after all - massive accretion disk certainly can add angular momentum; and with large part of it being ionized one way or another, we might have appropriate charge in some cases...
What if naked singularity would turn out to be behind quasars; generally some unusually active cores of galaxies or relativistic jets?
Hm, from the data in Wiki article (and external links from there) it seems that Pentium bug is always wrong in one direction, giving "less" than the proper result. This might mean Intel is actually hiding that the Earth is flat (hey, even better site;p ); alternatively, it was an effort to make the number describing curvature smaller...
For all we know now, it might have been just as well an avionics (Korean most likely?) error; not unheard of in first launches of modern rockets...
But anyway, with how Russian programmes are notoriously underfounded (and considering that little tidbit - still doing great), it's safe to suspect IMHO that Angara is not quite "ready" / Russians found acceptable partner to give rocket technology to in exchange for funding and opportunity to more quickly refine the new design.
Strangely, this actually seems to mean that N. Korea (I guess among the so called "third-world country better not able to produce intercontinental missiles") has quite comparable luck with launches, perhaps even slighhty better one.
The issue is that too many people surely understand it that way. Fighting, bloodshed - those come naturally to us, they are the easy way.
And yes, my point with the quote was (and what you said in the last sentence) that it basically might just as well mean "active ones take over" - well duh! Not attaching moral value wasn't about the word per se, but about the group which it represents - the original, unmodified quote just used one little trick in different part of itself to arbitrarily attach moral value to "indolent"... (and c'mon, they can easily have many exploits; passed over and solid enough to last a few generations, for starters)
I'm not sure I follow one initial premise in your post; typically the far left and far right tend to be...hard to distinguish, really. Generally all kinds of trouble stemming from assuming left, right, and moderates between axis... (what's stopping "moderates" from such actions) A show. What such society ultimatelly wants.
It is also my opinion that it's about an effort of societies towards self improvement. But...a "fight" might be a poorer choice of words than you suppose; it might work against the goal. Isn't it also a nice keyword feeding those primitive reflexes?
Hell, regarding dinosaurs vs. mammals there wasn't that much of a difference for quite some time after the split gicing rise to those two groups. The group which eventually led to mammals was actually dominating for quite a while before the one which led to dinosaurs, but...it lost that domination due to major extinction event (sounds familiar?)
Pushed into some niche over millions of years, it adapted night life of small animals, ones very often being prey. That means one "good" characteristic (thermoregulation) showed up fairly quickly in our lineage; but OTOH we're stuck we some detrimental things... (short living animals didn;t need more than 2 sets of teeth, for example)
We can't be certain dinosaurs wouldn't led to some form of technological civilisation (can we be certain there wasn't at least some primitive one?...)
In a way, be don't come even close to bacteria when it comes to modifying the environment we live in. And we would probably have a hard time recognising some form of their, say, swarm uberintelligence anyway;)
OTOH this possibility of adapting environment to us...actually means we lately we tend to undermine our survivability, somehow. How intelligent would that be?
Plus generally, as for our impressions regarding our intelligence - I suspect my cat often has an "impression" (as far as it goes) that I'm incredibly stupid;)
Maybe. OTOH an exoskeleton (or general "badassness") might be simply...standard thing in their environment; easy to have due to certan factors & reckless not to have. Body armor was quite a bit more standard at some point in Earth prehistory, too.
I'm not sure one can look at those others like that. While those singular wars / campaigns can be easily considered to be just...how can we disconnect them from other actions of the US at roughly the same time? (*) Which one takes precedence as the "true" manifestation of US intentions?
(*) Barbary Pirates - the mess with Canada. Civil War - push to the West; also not that far from mess with Mexico or Indonesia. And even with Korea - many people forget that S. Korea was...also basically totalitarian then, and for a few more decades - but on "our" side; there were even, essentially, ethnic cleansings on the side of S. Korea... (apparently with knowledge of the US); and generally large part of the mess due to supporting Stalinist Soviet Union - not exactly better from Nazi Germany, and with considerable overlap of occupation areas for the next few decades.
Chosen terminology can influence people to too large of a degree to dismiss it (ever heard about propaganda or loaded words?). BTW, don't paint it as "us" vs. "them"...what do you think, from where "them" usualy originate? It's optimally an effort, a long term one, of society trying to keep healthy...itself.

What choice do they have, if they feel they are being strong armed into this posturing / half-baked actions / whatever you call it?
But you embrace it. Things that "count" are in relation to one particular culture (yours)
Hm, one of the platforms on which those games will be available is sort of from that lineage... (compare DC controller with original Xbox one; S controller and X360 aren't that different? ;p )
This case doesn't apply here.

In that episode they also said "Everything about that sentence is wrong", or something close to it...

Cool, a way to power warp drive.

Actually, I suspect rare enough...
You demonstrate the problem if you think those are the primary issues we're dealing with now.

And how can he line up political support? Are you sure it's just about "him" or "them"?
(accidentally, also putting politics in the terms of "fight"...well, just look at the mess)
Struggle perhaps; effort would be even better...
Chosen terminology can influence people to too large of a degree to dismiss it (ever heard about propaganda or loaded words?). BTW, don't paint it as "us" vs. "them"...what do you think, from where "them" usualy originate? It's optimally an effort, a long term one, of society trying to keep healthy...itself.
But also - bloodshed is the easiest, natural thing for us. Are you really sure people putting themselves into "fighting" mood is the best of ideas?
