I too am sick and tired of the overabundance of leftist narrative and agenda in media these days but wasn't Star Trek always filled with progressive leftist viewpoints? I liked the new discovery the only thing that stood out was no cisgendered white male in a major role (kid of sexists and racists isn't it?)
You are forgetting the medium in which they will have to act. We are not talking about bacteria on a Petri dish but bacteria that is in a human body, which has an immune system that does not take kindly to foreign objects, beneficial or not. So for these custom bacteriophages to work they will have to kill their targets faster than the immune system would kill them. Kind of reduces their effectiveness IMHO.
It's not always about uniting the public through an external enemy. Sometimes it's just finding an excuse for those hyper-expensive defence programs. IMHO China isn't there yet with its military hardware, while Russia which is putting out new military hardware and making a big noise about it (maybe some exaggeration included), it just what the doctor ordered.
Not after next generation, but after Enterprise and b4 TOS. If you notice when the 1st officer calls a list of Star Fleet's greatest captains both Kirk and Picard are noticeably absent. Also, the blue uniforms are an extension of Enterprise's uniform design.
The neighbouring country, Ukraine has plenty of oil, so does the recently annexed Crimean Sea. For some reason, Russia isn't worried about oil from the middle-east.
From wher do you get your facts? Ukraine is an importer of gas and oil. Coal they do export but that's not what this discussion is about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... . Has it really come down to creating facts to support your viewpoint on a country?
Just checked the vk.com site. It is true that you have to give them a mobile phone number for them to complete the signup process (They send an SMS to confirm the number). Isn't it possible to use a virtual SMS number to defeat this? Just googling "online phone number to receive SMS" game me a whole lot of free sites that provide such a service, free.
Wasn't Star Trek always SciFi with a political/social agenda? Not a hardcore fan but that was always my take on it. Except for the movies. Especially the last three.
The problem with U.S. Russian relations today is that there are too many people like you making decisions with regard to Russia. This "alienation of Russia" foreign policy only hurts the weak opposition that there is to Putin. You, neocons, are more his lapdogs than anybody else today, providing him with an easily identifiable enemy so that he can appear as the protector of the Russian people and Russia's interests.
Come on mods, Flamebait? I thought that he was honestly voicing his opinion. If you don't agree with his opinion that doesn't make it a flamebait. IMHO the DNC hack was a service to American democracy, despite the result. (not a suppoter of Mr. Trump)
The "woman" in the background in both pictures looks like the same person in the same clothes. Maybe this is a men's room and the trans person in question is the one who looks like a woman? Just asking since you linked to the photos only without any caption etc.
You watch, Turkey is going to be the first country to ever leave NATO and its going to happen in less than four years. And Cheeto Mussolini is going to cheer it on too.
Sorry to bring you the bad news but France already did. 50 years ago.
Do you think that most child porn is made for economic reasons? Or is it mostly pedophiles filming themselves and distributing it? Haven't seen it but I highly doubt that it is like normal porn with professional actors etc... What I'm trying to say here is that IMHO the incentive for making child porn is not economic, and getting rid of it will not stop the sickos.
Samsung had a concept short on the sort of thing you mentioned (2013). The add is rather the stupid but the tech showcased is rather interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
What evidence. Russian IP[ address? Same signature and attack vector that has allegedly been used by Russian Intelligence in the past? https://www.wired.com/2016/07/...
Does it really matter who did it? IMHO what matters is what was exposed. Blaming the Russian is only trying to shift the focus of the public away from the e-mails. And our great 4th estate is helping them.
Wouldn't using more wood help to take some of the carbon out of circulation? Grow some fast growing trees. Cut them and utilize the wood for building material etc... Plant more trees and so on and so forth....

I thought that the engineers used metric? I know that the U.S. military does. It's just the general population.
0 Troll? Come on mods. Even if you don't agree, his point doesn't seem trollish despite the language used.

You're all missing the main point here. What would be more likely to generate funding?
1. Study of microbiological life in the Atacama Desert.
2. The possibility of life on Mars explored by studying Mars like conditions on Earth.
Take your pick.
53+47=100. I think the results mentioned were percents and not the total number of voters.

20 years is not a long time. Some projects take that long to complete.
Wow never knew that G.R.R. Martin's slashdot nick was omnichad. So how's "The Winds of Winter" coming along?

No it's just a multithreaded post.
And so begins the zombie apocalypse.

You got it wrong. Churchill commented on democracy not capitalism. “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.”
