Fair enough Dag

...sucks now I can't deliver p-ponts to alla y'all that are either used to the stroke, or never expecting the surprise...My advice to all y'all lazy motherfuckers that just sit on yer power-points and never do anything with em?? Make someone happy today and worry about whether or not some dumb-ass bullshit belongs up on the front page just because you wanna pop-spit or promote your OWN videos (which I think is completely retarded, unless it's to promote some hella good shit, which most of you self-promoting motherfuckers's shit, ISN'T!?? DUH??)

Oh and Dag?? Fuck a buncha blaming the time zone or not copping to the real-deal timing IS after all, everythhing...I'm no fucking idiot. I KNOW there's a buncha whiny mother fucks, crawling up the sift's ass to burn me, all you poser fucks can fuck the fuck the fuck off and go back to sleep.

You know who you are....Suck my balls and gently carress the taint, rimjobs after I've had some schwarma and spanakopita and sag panneer, motherfuckers. You ACTUAL haters know exactly who and what you are and can't see yourself for the douche in your veins.

Ok. Got all that out. Back to shitting-on-bullshit when it screams, to the consternation of all haters everywhere.

Too bad for all those dead Kronospissant videos I can never fix to help alleviate the carbon-fucking-footprint that coal-burner left behind....because the arbitrary rules here suck donkey-dick!!

(It's no great mystery as to why this site was never able to make any fucking money...self-destructive, narcissistic circle-jerk of doom)

Repeat after me:

There's no such thing as a free market.
There's no such thing as a free market.
There's no such thing as a free market.

Free markets rely on rational, informed consumers. Any dominant player in a free market would inhibit both of these things. Free markets depend on the possibility for competition to arise. There are a million ways for a dominant player in a free market to quash competition before it can get a foothold.

Free markets are self-destructive by their nature. They're unstable systems.

Well, lucky for him, it wasn't in the US, then. He may not think so at this point but one day he will .

His gun was unloaded, He was trying to get police to shoot him. Must be a tough life where a guy has to live with so much anger and pain, that he self destructs in this way. Hope he gets the help he needs so badly.

I do see a fair number of echo-chamber addicts, RFlagg. But the crazier and more extreme the GOP gets, the less they appeal to the other 70% of the voters. This is the self-destruction I'm referring to. 30% of the vote won't get them very far, they'll be the newest equivalent of the Green party, i.e. unable to win any election of value.

I'd like to see a Warren/Franken ticket, in whatever order of precedence. Franken certainly seems clued in enough to capture the non-Luddite crowd's interest.

But yeah, the Democrats definitely have to avoid that defeat problem they historically have had. I'm not sure they can do it...more likely they'll balkanize and start bicker themselves into losing.

I don't see any particular need to demonize anyone, but I am fascinated by the way the Republican party is racing towards self-destruction. There's a dark part of my psyche that just can't help cheering them on...I've never seen a political organization commit suicide before.

Um, well, if that's your only complaint . . Wings can actually be useful for a ship that does both atmosphere and space flight. Like the shuttle. It has wings. And it's a space ship . . . of sorts.

Let's see . . . Lasers. Yeah, we've already had lasers debunked as a weapon in space. Unless there's some breakthrough later on. But, that said, it wouldn't be visible as there's no atmosphere to reflect it back to us. It would be traveling at the speed of light.

Explosions would be limited to the amount of oxygen in the ship being destroyed. They wouldn't create sonic waves or sound, or cause the nearby camera to rattle.

Ships wouldn't fly in arcs. That's atmosphere. In space, a ship can turn 180° and still be going the same direction. Babylon 5 is a good example of newtonian physics in action while in space.

Humans wouldn't be flying small ships. It'd kill us. Literally. Unless we have inertial dampeners like in Star Trek, making those turns and twists would destroy our bodies. Just ask a pilot.

Lastly, anyone advanced enough to do FTL and navigate massive star clusters with pinpoint precision who DOESN'T have a targeting system that can predict a ships movements and then fire a at speed of light weapon and destroy it, well, failed somewhere.

Not to mention, we'd use missiles that would self-destruct. Fire a physical projectile at near speed of light velocities and it not hit it target? Well, you may have just fired a bullet that would take out your space base in 1,000 years. It's be fruitless, require tons of energy and end up killing yourself with your own bullet.

But I'm glad we focused on wings. The only thing that has a real legitimate use in space travel.

I only read the first paragraph of your reply (and I haven't watched the clip).

All I did was post how lots of stupid shit is shown on TV. Since you're clearly familiar with steady diets of bullshit, you should understand that as much as any of us.

Maybe Yogi was blowing off your replies, but my personal beliefs are more inclined to be untrustworthy of the collection of sanctioned media outlines our society has, and if your posts are any indication, you share the same perspective.

Let me summarize in case you skip over most of my post like I did yours: I'm more than likely someone who holds the same beliefs as you do, so it's not only self-destructive, but self-absorbed to see anyone who doesn't immediately agree with your position as a threat. Be less drunk when you post.

I don't like necessarily Israel's tact on this issue nor how much force they are employing. But, on the other hand I really don't know what else they should be doing that would bring about a ceasefire with people that don't seem overly concerned with focusing on things like "good intentions". As @bcglorf said this is a complicated scenario and it has no easy solutions. I'm even more afraid, ultimately, that it will always be true that if either of these sides (or countries if it ever comes to that) decide to break their ceasefire, even for something "minor" (something in the Cold War that wouldn't have provoked us or Russia into action) it may lead to conflict. Conflict like we now see playing out.

To be truthful, I have no advice for either of them, but I do think the world community including the U.S., someday, should agree together to tell ALL of the Middle East one thing, "Grow up!". Until we can agree unilaterally the Middle East will continue to be a powder keg. Though if Iraq truly becomes powerful, self-reliant, and democratically free then perhaps they can work opposite Israel to reign in groups and even countries that have "contracts of death" created for the purpose of destroying Israel. But, these are all long-term scenarios...

For now it really is up to the people in that region to decide: do they want war? Or would they rather they had peace? Israel is guilty of acting immature for a country that should now better in some circumstances. But, those around Israel are guilty of blind idiocy, pure ignorance, and following a self-destructive mandate (destroy Israel) that is the key to what leaves them behind the rest of the world. What a mess--one both sides need to clean up and eventually decide who is wrong...maybe a bit of both...

But, like that would ever happen...

In 1981, Frank Tipler[3] put forth an argument that extraterrestrial intelligences do not exist, based on the absence of von Neumann probes. Given even a moderate rate of replication and the history of the galaxy, such probes should already be common throughout space and thus, we should have already encountered them. Because we have not, this shows that extraterrestrial intelligences do not exist. This is thus a resolution to the Fermi paradox—that is, the question of why we have not already encountered extraterrestrial intelligence if it is common throughout the universe.

A response[4] came from Carl Sagan and William Newman. Now known as Sagan's Response, it pointed out that in fact Tipler had underestimated the rate of replication, and that von Neumann probes should have already started to consume most of the mass in the galaxy. Any intelligent race would therefore, Sagan and Newman reasoned, not design von Neumann probes in the first place, and would try to destroy any von Neumann probes found as soon as they were detected. As Robert Freitas[5] has pointed out the assumed capacity of von Neumann probes described by both sides of the debate are unlikely in reality, and more modestly reproducing systems are unlikely to be observable in their effects on our Solar System or the Galaxy as a whole.

Another objection to the prevalence of von Neumann probes is that civilizations of the type that could potentially create such devices may have inherently short lifetimes, and self-destruct before so advanced a stage is reached, through such events as biological or nuclear warfare, nanoterrorism, resource exhaustion, ecological catastrophe, pandemics due to antibiotic resistance.

A simple workaround exists to avoid the over-replication scenario. Radio transmitters, or other means of wireless communication, could be used by probes programmed not to replicate beyond a certain density (such as five probes per cubic parsec) or arbitrary limit (such as ten million within one century), analogous to the Hayflick limit in cell reproduction. One problem with this defence against uncontrolled replication is that it would only require a single probe to malfunction and begin unrestricted reproduction for the entire approach to fail — essentially a technological cancer — unless each probe also has the ability to detect such malfunction in its neighbours and implements a seek and destroy protocol.

She was clearly referring to the quasi-Rousseauian undertones of Obama's pre-election promises when compared to his autocratic yet Hegelian dialectic of historical materialism as demonstrated by his attempt to governmentalise the auto-industry.
This woman is clearly a first generation Frankfurt school type critical theorist as she quoted the now infamous Adorno and Hawkheimer work "Just study it out". Far from a derogatory phrase she is merely asking the American people to abandon their nationalistic self-destruction and embrace internationalism as entolled by Tolstoy and Lenin.
Kudos comrade.
