You might never see the sun again!
Spongebob-Webster cinematic universe confirmed. Just as Ive always suspected.
In two generations well probably be banging rocks together in a irradiated hellscape and Ill hopefully be long dead.
Creating an enduring positive legacy takes effort, and neither Jobs or Bezos really made an attempt. Guys like Musk and Gates are making that effort and are likely to be remembered, although I think its pretty unlikely Musk will ever be able to restore a positive connotation to his name.
You know their name. Just about everyone reading your comment knows their names as well. Further, when most people hear their names the first thing that pops into their head is something positive and prestigious, not the awful things they did to make their fortunes. Many of their descendants are still wealthy and powerful to this day. It doesn't really make much difference if people spend time looking at their portraits.
I think it was really more that all the other species naturally tend to hate vulcans and like humans. The vulcans desperately needed a popular friend.
Dont buy a project car if you dont want a project. Some people like that shit, but its not for everyone.
Dont use freaking Arch if your goal is to get everything to work out of the box?
You know who should be doing that? The Democrats in the House and Senate. If they cant even do that a bunch of geriatric retired politicians writing a letter to the editor its going to galvanize anything.
Who exactly does he think the former presidents are going to convince? They hate Bush, and the rest are all Democrats.
Everyone has known about this for a quarter century and has expected that this would be the first lever China would pull in the event of war. Sure, nobody was expecting the US to start that war out of nowhere, but such an obvious opening move has certainly had a prepared counter in place for decades.
They arnt talking about selling houses, they are talking about selling mortgage backed securities. That would cause mortgage rates to spike and make housing even more expensive.
No idea. Power abhors a vacuum, and there are a million different permutations that could lead us to the inevitable.
Im just reminded of the words I drunk texted the night Trump won the election: The US will withdraw from the world. Europe will try to stand up, but fall flat on its face. WWIII is inevitable.
Way to go Brussels. A nice measured response. I'm sure history will remember how reasonable you were when they are sorting through the ashes one day.
And that's assuming that this chain of events doesnt end in a shooting war. Those are not great for people or the environment.
If schools used to teach critical thinking skills effectively then older people should be more resistant to disinformation, not less. Since that is not the case we must conclude what they were teaching before was not effective against this threat.
Thats what I mean. If you put 100 people in a classroom, teach them something, and then filter out all the people who didnt learn anything youll be left with a pool of people who have been effectively educated. That works great if you are trying to create an educated class of professionals with specific skills and knowledge. However, if you are trying to improve the education level of society as a whole you are still stuck with all the people who cant or wont learn. You end up with training thats about as effective as a mandatory slide show, which is maybe better than nothing, but also not very good.
The problem being that education is slow, inconsistent and not terribly effective when you cant drop the people who dont/wont pass.
My theory has always been that Vic was actually the "puppy" computer virus from s01e16, growing up and trying to get more interaction with people. That's how he could transfer himself between holodecks and access station systems. In the mirror universe the virus infected an android body and not a holodeck program.
I know, its really a shame about all those low paying STEM jobs. I remember back when I was a kid I used to tell everyone I wanted to be an engineer when I grew up, but all the moneys in literature and poetry so thats what I had to do. Damn you, capitalism!
