History? What's that? The world didn't exist before me! But honestly, I think we have to form a true civilization before we can degrade from one, and from what I can tell people have just been making stuff up as they go. Our 'civilization' seems like a patchwork that is wearing thin at the seams (institution on top of institution), I think it's time to design a suit(systemic approach) to present ourselves in, you know, all respectable and stuff. You never know when we'll have visitors. Hell, who cares about the visitors, I just don't want my backyard to be diseased and radioactive, damnit.
Harper's doing a great job of dumping anything related to science into the trash. It's a sad thing to see something so fundamental pushed aside like rotten food in favour of short term economic gains.
So much power with less than 40% of the vote... how about some proportional representation up here, maybe? It seems somewhat disingenuous to ignore thousands of votes and still claim to be a healthy democracy.
I can certainly see them 'lying through their teeth' but at least they aren't charging me per GB. Throttling would be a better symptom of their corruption than a bigger bill.
This seems like a much better choice for bandwidth management than the UBB BS that is happening. Until the infrastructure catches up with video demand I can understand a little of sacrifice for other people.
It's all Chaos. Nothing is perfect. All the rules and predictions can't prevent something eventually going wrong.
That clock comes close simply because we've controlled it to the extreme.
Well It's pretty clear to a lot of people that those in power are usually committed to staying in power. These people work hard to sell themselves and the ideas that they adopt so they are more popular then the other guy. Certainly these people gain skills in people/business/image management. However these skills don't necessarily prepare them to be the best at managing a society/city. Collaborative input from others with different perspectives, I believe, is essential. These writers, whether they write sci fi or science fiction, are adept at seeing a situation from a much broader perspective then the limited scope of politicians. Reality, of course, cannot be ignored and a business manager is a good first step for managing a city but if we never think of the possible big picture then we'll have a tough time changing our day to day lives. Getting policy ideas from the guy with the most money sounds utterly insane to me.
It's the scope of the quality idea that matters. It's one thing to work hard to build a plant in a certain district so you can get elected again next year and quite another to plan for a society using generational ideas that span more than the length of a politicians career. We need more dreams, like the Apollo program, to drive our creation and innovation or our society will stagnate and destroy itself. Until we manage our natural desires of pride and selfishness we must rely on our natural talents like curiosity and growth to protect us. Technology is an amazing part of our lives, but it can't fix everything.
Ideas, created with pure thought and imagination, that are offered to the government sounds like a much better process than those offered by politicians and lobbyists.
Generational ideas are what can improve our place in life, not those created from greed of power.
Drivers like these are the reason I can't wait for cars to drive themselves. Their need for instant gratification and communication put all of our lives in danger, not just those who are comfortable risking their lives in their metal cages. There is no respect and little awareness for the other people on the road, much less the pedestrians and bikers.
I'd much sooner trust a tested computer system with multiple environmental sensors to drive everyone around. They won't get distracted by conversation, food, drugs or the dead people at the side of the road.
I just bought Final Fantasy IV Advance for the game boy advance. It's an early christmas present for myself and I'll be enjoying it for a long time. Edward just joined my party. "You Spoony Bard!"
HAHAHHahahahahHAhahahHAHAHAhahahahahahHAHAHAAh.
So when I wiped the tears from my eyes I had to think of all the less intellegent students that will come out of Kansas. Then I thought of the increase of poverty, crime and abortion that is sure to follow and the tears returned.

It makes me sad. I really enjoyed both previous games, and replaying them whenever I want is a pretty big issue for me.
Yah it's pretty messed up. For sure. Lower quality of service is a better choice than raping my bank account.

One is a genius the other is insane.

I'm impressed. Sounds like an easy hand out to potential customers. Smart, and effective I bet.
www.gamasutra.com is an excellent business video game website. You'll find everything you need here.

It's another "tragic failure of leadership". The time to impeach someone is long overdue.
The writer of this article had a midnight visit with Bush, or at least some of Bush's croneys.
