Once I've finished a current project I might work on my own iOS and website version of this game which isn't harsh to libertarianism.

It appears I did get the donation in the end so thanks again.

It's biased to an anti-libertarian creator.

But seriously, you don't want people making nukes in their back yard. You especially want to stop terrorist groups making them.

It's a currency? More broadly a security.

@RandyFolds Do you deny inferred is made with photons?

If the earth relied on heat transfer through vibrating particle collisions only, we'd all be melting. In fact when particles in space hit earth, they heat up through friction and don't cool the earth down.

Nukes... nukes release a lot of radiation, don't they? Tongue

@RandyFolds Inferred is electromagnetic radiation similar to light. It is hence made up of photons.

If you can irradiate heat through a vacuum then the Earth would be bloody hot, receiving all that heat over the years but never giving any away through the vacuum of space.

Conduction is done through both particle collision and photons, I'm guessing?

I've heard thing get cold really quickly in space. The temperatures in the dark side of the moon are extremely low while the other side is much hotter. The Earth retains heat in the atmosphere.
1109  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Should individuals have the right to build weapons of mass destruction? on: July 15, 2011, 02:08:31 PM
Why do people give off inferred radiation? Inferred cameras? When we get hot, isn't some of the heat transferred into radiation?

This is common sense to me since I know about thermal imaging cameras but please explain in a scientific way someone.

It automatically thinks your nation must have a massive rich-poor divide.  Angry So it is stupid.

And your nation does qualify for The Lands of Anarcho Capitalism.

I know. And we've seen governments abuse nuclear technology in the past.

But no way can you sit back while you watch people make a nuke without reassurances at the least.
1112  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Should individuals have the right to build weapons of mass destruction? on: July 14, 2011, 10:51:35 PM
Alright then. Extremist people can all the nukes they want? Bad idea. Dangerous.

In the rare case a nuke is useful, people will want to be ensured it is being used safely.

If someone is found to be building a dangerous bomb, sure pre-emptive defence may be needed.

An axiom is one of two things:

1) Widely accepted premise.
2) Self-evident fact.

An example of the first type is "murder is bad".

An example of the second is "I think therefore I am".

Ok, the Free Land of Lazy Fare just joined the Lands of Anarcho-Capitalism.  I don't know how to make my economy 100% Private Sector though, so we may get ejected...

Sorry but no compromises. You simply need to go through the options which makes government do as little as possible. You must hav selected some bad options when you started the nation.
1116  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Just found out bitcoin won't even save us!!! on: July 14, 2011, 02:18:34 AM
Have you ever paid tax before. Have you ever been forced to participate in fiat currency and the scam banking system. Have you been forced to follow a particular rule of labour?

All of those most likely.
1117  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Just found out bitcoin won't even save us!!! on: July 14, 2011, 01:55:05 AM
The youtube channel that has the original copy, has Muslim stuff all over it, so I'm confused.
1118  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Just found out bitcoin won't even save us!!! on: July 13, 2011, 11:50:25 PM
It's a Muslim thing? What is it?
1119  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Moral relativism and libertarianism compatible? on: July 13, 2011, 10:33:54 PM
Isn't moral relativism just an effect derived from moral subjectivism?
1120  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Nation States game. on: July 13, 2011, 08:50:26 PM
I had to eject "The Republic of Prospero and Caliban"; It wasn't 100% private sector.

In real life, things don't work as they do in the game. Public opinion matches the game quite well though.
