I thought he was making peace with places like North Korea, not war.
Well, he went after ISIS and wiped them out. Not sure what you'd call that... Same shit as previous assholes POTUS? The good old mentality of the US "if there is still a problem after bombing then use more bombs"? It's not like USA can do anything but wars. There is no need for us to drive you psycho with war. We have driven you and millions others into full psycho mode. Just by electing Trump. |

No, they really are not serious. Neither the governments or SpaceX.
For example there is a predicted large asteroid impact in 2104 that can be prevented. But the application of kinetic energy to this threat in 2020 can be done with three orders of magnitude less energy than later in the century.
Is the 2020 opportunity going to be used? Nope. What is the name for this asteroid? Any relevant links? I was wondering the same. Apophos, one of numerous extremely dangerous rocks. https://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/sentry/details.html#?des=99942https://cneos.jpl.nasa.govGeneral theory of impact speed calculation. http://www2.mae.ufl.edu/~uhk/ASTEROID.pdfBut these rocks establish over millions of years, a resonance with the orbit of a planet. For example, one may precisely loop then sun seven times, while the Earth loops six times. This happens over and over. From observations, we calculate the rock's elliptical path. Three observations is the minimum, and the more there are, the more precise the calculation becomes. First it is established that its path in the ecliptic crosses that of Earth (2D). Then it is only a matter of whether it passes in front of the Earth, or behind the Earth, or strikes the Earth. |

This brain disease (aka religion) affects us all, poor, rich, smart or dumb. The only solution is a complete eradication, to the last scripture and last preacher. Each affected person is a victim in a way.
The only difference between now and back then is that back then, 100% believed in this shit/superstition/witchcraft, etc, today about 80-85% of people still cling on to such irrational beliefs.
Obviously, we have a long way to go to eradicate this plague.
I don't agree with this but am very familiar with the arguments, being pretty much an atheist. The details don't fit in this thread. But let me just say that if you did "eradicate this plague," then you have to face what comes next. And as that is the uncontrollable product of a type of revolution, it's likely it would be worse. There are many historical examples of this. Why anything has to come next? What are you talking about? Why does it have to be a "revolution"? Keep the social structures, economic systems intact. Science and technology is the only way forward. Religions will not help us land on Mars, develop new cures or ways to survive on this increasingly polluted rock. When we cured polio, there was no revolution required. Same thing here. You help people who need help with this mental disorder. Because stamping out religion 100% has been tried numerous times, and forcing adherence to a state religion has been tried numerous times. History is your friend. |

The climate scientists are themselves deniers--they deny the prehistoric records (going back to millions years ago) which show climate change comes in cycles, and that we are presently in the peak of such a sycle. In fact, during the past 1 million years, we've had 10 of such cycles. Instead of a global warming, we are facing 100,000 years of freezing--a new ice age.  https://www.agci.org/iron/history/climate-change-prehistoric-eraThe ice age is inevitable, because they are based on orbital dynamics, as opposed to small things such as percent of gases in the atmosphere. It cannot be predicted exactly when this ice age will start. It might be 10,000 years off, or 300 years off. If the climatic effect of CO2 is extreme warming, it will delay this ice age considerably. If the effect is weak, it will delay it weakly. Anyone who denies this .... Is a denier. |

The ability to replicate a million copies of Wikipedia is based on device architectures that are not required to go through someone's Cloud. Survival skills may be quite different than what you think they are. Here are a couple examples. A) ability to build a wood-gas engine for a vehicle B) ability to make a battery C) create a manual control for a device which had an electronic control D) device means of communication, short and long distances Survival seems heavy on electrical and computer engineering, doesn't it? You just gave 'them' the list of the things 'they' need to focus on so we, the people, never get knowledge of...  I'm sure you can extend the "They tried to take our {guns} away" list. Just be sure to use the capitalized "They." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JI8AMRbqY6wGuns... 3D printing Files... 'Problematic' Books... 'Illegal' manifestos... 'Forbidden' archaeology... The right to speak your mind openly and the right to share it online... The right to be wrong. A lot of things ' They' don't like. Sure. But my point was that a recovery from such an apocalypse would not be a return to huge mills crushing trees to make paper, and it's distribution to cities and then to users. It would be simpler and easier to return to tablets, computers and keyboards. The recovery would not have the intermediate steps which we had historically say from 1500AD to the present. Another poster mentioned that MAKING fire wasn't the difficulty, it was the utilizations of fire in processes that had to be mastered. That's a very good point. |

Why don't you first start by admitting that Islam is a supremacist ideology? And stop playing this "we are the victim" game.
Is it wrong to own slaves? Is it wrong to stone adulterers? Is it wrong to kill homosexuals, Jews, atheists?
Was Allah wrong when he recommended these punishments?
I think you have quite a bit of work to do BEFORE you start looking OUTSIDE of your own political system aka Islam.
Hint: You can start by saying that Allah did not really mean it, and gave those laws only to people in the 6th century.
There have been numerous Muslim apologists do this, by noting such things as "such and such an order in the Quran to kill infidels" applied only to a particular issue or battle during the life of their Prophet. Regardless, I do prefer the Christian montage, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." It would be easier to reform this system in the age of ignorance. You would just say that the angels came to the Caliph and told him to amend the Quran and everyone would accept it. Today, we have cameras, audio, and infrared recording equipment so no one would believe such claims. So moderate Muslims are in a bit of pickle. On one hand, they cannot undermine the authority of Allah and risk of being killed and on the other, they do not want to look like the ignorant, sadistic idiots of the 6th century who assembled this book (20-30 years after Muhammad died). It may come as a shock to you, in this age of cameras, audio and infrared, but this is as much an age of ignorance as any other age might have been. |

Muslims have been responsible for some 31,500 terror attacks since 9/11. www.thereligionofpeace.comRight, the OP thought he'd be clever and made up what is called the "straw man" logical fallacy. your brain already washed by media sir. all i know about truly muslim is they teaching love to people who ever they are, whatever they are like christian The count now is 34,385 terror attacks. They are each individually documented on the link provided. |

.... As the quran if you'd dig deep into it. I think the difference is that there are a lot of apologists and leaders who interpret the bible differently scrubbing out all the bad things there while muslim leaders are somewhat purists, sticking exactly to their holybook quite literally.
Maybe it is you that should dig a bit deeper? |

..... I used to love TV. Loved all the funny commercials, etc. I had my TV ON almost as a screen saver all day, volume down, because Hey! I am paying for it might as well keep it on. Very strange when I think about it now. It is not easy to get out. Once you understand what they are, Time Vampires, sucking up your energy, then there is a path in your mind to cut the Beast off your life. Reading gives you time to reflect. TV was built to shut you down mentally. Well, I could watch 10 hrs of stupid cat videos on YT but... That's another story...  I cut the cable/satellite connection ten years ago. There's been a minor inconvenience now and then with someone wanting to watch a football or basketball show, but aside from that it's totally positive. Now I find it easy to identify people who at home have some news channel on nonstop. They are programmed drones in a fishtank. Yes. The 'beauty' of it is the drones are watching drones on TV... This is how the Left used to think. What a reversal... From when some of the Left had vision- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFLy8eGtSYo |

Rest assured, the ONLY options which are presented for consideration are those amendable to corruption...
We only have 12 years left to live according to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez... Have you paid your Carbon Taxes lately? Participating on a popular forum like bitcoinalk has an irreversible impact on the polar manbearpig population living inside Al Gore's pocket. Pay up, do it for the children... Note that we ARE NOT TOLD to worry about asteroids destroying the Earth, or about Carrington/EMF events. I conclude that not only are the only SOLUTIONS presented for consideration are those amendable to corruption, but the only PROBLEMS we are told to worry about are those amendable to corruption. You can force people to pay a tax for an invisible threat. It is impossible to do so for a total civilization killer event everyone can see approaching day by day. The corrupted rats are always the first in their elite underground bunker anyway. It is by design. The Derinkuyu underground city. It was built for specific reasons. Only a guess to why such gargantuan work had to be done, but I guess there are rooms ready for AOC and Al Gore... Neither asteroids nor Carrington/EMF events represent certain total civilization killers. Asteroids vary in size and hence in effect, widely. There are countless more 100 meter sized rocks that are a threat than 1 km sized. In all cases, though, they are fairly easily handled 10-100 years in advance. It's fairly true to say they cannot be diverted or destroyed on the final swing inbound even with the largest hydrogen bombs. Also we have not developed delivery systems to handle these threats. ICBMs won't do it. EMF threats from enemy nation states have known radius in which electronics is destroyed. Infrastructure can be hardened, few or no nations have done that. Recently Trump ordered it for the USA. Carrington events AFAIK do not present a known scale of intensity, because we understand solar thermodynamics very poorly at this time. These events might affect a part of the planet, or the largest part, depending on several factors. Hardened infrastructure is the solution here, even if a country does not have an enemy that presents a nuclear threat. It does appear that the alarmists of climate doom, their paid Internet posters and their countless sock puppets, are a pretty cheap investment to keep the public from actually thinking their way through realistic wide scale threat scenarios and likelihoods. I made a joke about the planet being 6000 years old here somewhere. This is the classic, tired old joke some people make against Christians and their Bible. A few days later I realized the oldest modern civilization known from historic facts was the Sumerian's. Beginning around 5,500 years ago... Göbekli Tepe maybe 12000 years old but we don't know much about it (by design?). It is strange that glimpses of what we know as 'Technology' and our thirst to understand our reality started less than 13000 years ago, and our written history 6000 years ago. Before that we were what... Totally stupid, running around naked being eaten alive by giant moths? Yet we are the same humans with the same brain size for at least 50000 years or way more. Memory loss. A civilization dies with its last survivor and its knowledge accumulated inside him/her. Other humans across the world will be fine surviving. It does not have to be a massive solar flare or an impact from outer space to kill a civilization. The Story of the Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918..... I get your main point. Getting paid to keep people locked in the killing field of lies, deception and darkness may be a strange occupation in life at first, but it is simply part of human nature. We can't control our ultimate demise, but we can feel like we can control others before everything ends for us... Yes and no and sort of. Examples. We're not losing the art of making fire, gunpowder, IC engines, many things. Consider. I have wikipedia, 90+gb, on a device. (kiwix.org) worried about the end of the world because of solar flares? Put that device in a tin can, along with a solar panel, seal the tin can. Done. Wikipedia survives solar flares. I thought about the bio issues but did not include them, yet the answer is likely the same. Until and unless people take control of such things, and put the knowledge in permanent blockchains not secreted by one government or another, high levels of risk exist, both in the possible events that may happen, and in the response to them. There will be a need to keep critical engineers inside secret tin cans too if we want to keep nuclear power stations from melting down, or future curious teenagers from locked CDC bio hazard labs. We would need a couple more solar panels buried too because of their degradation. If we think a few years after the event, then yeah everything will be more than OK. If we think in centuries then I don't think much past knowledge would survive. Right now how many people do you know personally who can start a fire from scratch? How many people can hunt for food? Yes we get some good knowledge with Wiki, only if we are ready before everybody else pulls out their solar powered Wiki after the event. It would be too late by then. Today's school system is not created to push for basic knowledge, but for total obedience of the masses through ignorance. What would happen if a million starving humans find out you are the only one able to restart the factory, thanks to your working Wiki machine? Critical info is here permanently and isn't going away. One copy of wikipedia can be a million copies in a few days. The survivalist who is proud he can twirl sticks and make fire is simply wrong. The schools are simply irrelevant. The disasters of which we speak require considerable care and advance planning. That's not happening and it's likely governments can not be trusted to do it. A typical number quoted for a Carrington event that caused across the board power grid shutdowns in the US is 90% of the population dead within the year. That's preventable. A hundred meter rock hitting a populated area would create a two mile wide crater and a blast wave that would decimate a hundred square miles. That rock can be nudged if it's done 10-20 years in advance. These issues are not being discussed and public attention is focused on some Climate Apocalypse storyline that's been ten years off for four decades. It's not only a scam in it's own right but is directing attention away from real issues. |

Recently there's news that concerns some of the people around the internet so I though if it is worthy to open up a discussion and share anyones opinion about it. According to the news "Scientists are calling for a widespread cull of feral cats and dogs, pigs, goats, and rats and mice to save the endangered species they prey upon.
Their eradication on more than 100 islands could save some of the rarest animals on Earth, says an international team.
Islands have seen 75% of known bird, mammal, amphibian and reptile extinctions over the past 500 years.
Many of the losses are caused by animals introduced by humans.
Not naturally present on islands, they can threaten native wildlife." https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-47721807https://www.smh.com.au/national/war-on-feral-cats-australia-aims-to-cull-2-million-20170214-gucp4o.htmlFrom what I believe culling the animals will drastically drop the chance of said species to go extinct but it raises a question if it is a moral thing to do. Neutering the animals is also a good thing because it lowers the birthrate but they are still capable of hunting endangered species around the island. well that depends on point of view, some people want to have a more "catish" world |
