  • Guess he has read 1984?

    Not that it matters since this is such a different scenario.

  • I thought it was arch?

  • If you're that intelligent you'd know how to frame your thought process, ideas and way of life for others. If you don't know then don't worry, you're just average.

  • Thought they were just starting their war on it?

  • The ones who went to hell might appreciate the extra water.

  • Though there's no such thing as reverse discrimination. It's just good, old discrimination.

  • Imagine using that money to teach people our language and culture so we then have productive members of society instead of the equivalent of a prisoner costing the country £50k a year each.

    There are parts of the UK where you could get an entire house for that.

  • Folks who watched Star Trek and didn't understand this missed a good chunk of Star Trek. I'd argue most of it.

    Star Trek addressed our present a few times. It's essentially portrayed as a dark age.

  • The truth is out there too.

  • Hard to take you seriously when you start your post misinterpreting my post to such an extent. The sun doesn't produce electricity. The electricity we get from the sun is very much a limited supply. I'll just assume the rest of your post is pointless to read.

  • Elon Musk is a lottery winner in the business world.

  • Coordinated yes. Carefully? Questionable.

  • Imagine Steve Jobs taking to Twitter calling all doctors pedos for trying to fix cancer with chemotherapy instead of fructose syrup.

  • Imagine Microsoft saying fuck Google, Internet Explorer is back, boys!

  • I can't begin to imagine how people like this draw pleasure from life. This sort of evil is so extremely shallow. Have they ever even considered what they will think in their death bed? Or do they also just wanna kill themselves before it gets too bad, a la Hitler?

  • There are many arguments to be made here but this isn't one. The money can have conditions attached to it. For example, give an amount now and agree to some target being reached within 6 months and so on.

  • Didn't expect the current government to get something right. The funny thing about the right is that they at least support nuclear. Probably for the wrong reasons.

    People are too optimistic about renewables. The world has a limited supply and if the richer countries keep competing over it when will the poorer nations ever get the chance to ditch their coal and oil?

    How many countries have invested into production vs just out buying the poorer countries?

    The intermediate solution to our problems will be a mix of nuclear and renewables. Being so against nuclear despite our massive issues with climate is a nice gamble people take on other people's future.

    We are both far from meeting current electricity demand even in the richest nations and switching away from oil in transport. We need multiple solutions. And as we have seen from the current energy crisis in Europe, no government or population is willing to have a discontinuous energy supply, something common in most renewables.

  • Shit

    Jump
  • At current pace we most likely will. But it won't be cheap, both in terms of resources and lives. But it's unlikely to end human civilisation.

    Keep in mind that being a climate doomer and giving in to hopelessness is pretty much playing in the hands of the ones causing it.

  • Let's not forget Liz Truss. She may not have been as good as a lettuce but she was nonetheless.
