@pvsundarb It was a joke, not a real question.

@thor Thats probably the most legit reaction anyone could have... its just a bunch of people committing war crimes back and froth and then wording why the side they just committed a war crime on is committed a war crime on them...

@pvsundarb Putin, that you?

@AmpBenzScientist I mean more so if you count that, but hardly needs to be considered. The cost to get the same functionality in the 50s would be astronomical even with 50s tech... more so if you magically had a microchip.

If you built a modern thermostat in the 50's your themostate would literally need its own home.

@wasabi HA! I bet. I actually dont find the french language too sexy... I find it to be unnecessarily complicated, it feels archaic, even more so than latin to me.

@wasabi French people sound sexy, brits sound professional, americans sound like they dont care how they sound :)

Brits are the only ones who will go "its not odor it is odour" and sound fancy as hell

I am certain that 100% of people under 40 who know the meaning of the word loquacious only know it because they watched Harry Potter.

@AmpBenzScientist It is a universal physical law of the universe.

If we ever meet aliens I garuntee you their wise men are also random aliens peekling alien apples by alien lakes.

Puff the magic dragon: A song about a little kid who smoked weed and as he got older he stopped smoking and his dragon friend commited suicide.

The moral of the story: never stop smoking weed or your murder dragons!

@AmpBenzScientist To celebrate Rosa Parks day we are going to make all black people sit on the back of the bus... lol that should go down wonderfully :)

@AmpBenzScientist

Wrong, if you tried to tax billionairs to that extent youd quickly find the money disapears.. when you abusively tax the greatest wealth creators int he world you only stop wealth generation. So you quickly find you have no wealth to tax as you destroyed its generation through excessive taxation.

There is a proper levelof taxes, too low is unfair, too high is unfair. Taxes are already abusively unfair, our issue is we waste the vast amount of that money on military. Fix that first then we can discuss more taxes... makes no sense to give more taxes to an entity that already wastes virtually everything they get on murder.

Im all for handing out free guns to the homeless... not sure it will solve any problems but it will certainly piss off the liberals, and that alone is worth it :)

20/10 vision would mean quite horrible near sightedness.

While there is such a thing as objectively bad vision (such as an astigma) when it comes to normal shaped lenses that are out of focus there really is no such thing as "better and worse"... those kids with 20/10 vision would be completely unable to use my computer at the resoution I use.

I use QHD/UHD monitors at full resolution with no zoom. Virtually every normal sighted person says "how can you see that" to which I reply "rather easily".

You can only shift the natural focal point, it is never an improvement it is a tradeoff every time.

@thor

Next time people try to tell you how affordable homes were in the 1950s remind them, a modern day thermostat provides and contains more wealth than an entire 1950s home.

@dbc3

It seems like a rather exagerated test to be honest... I mean few things would survive that yet would be perfectly fine on an otherwise normal railway trip..

Im guessing it was more a safety test or something?

@icedquinn Not at all, fermis parodox relies on the vastness of the **observable** universe. It is such that no matter how conservative the values you put in, within what feels like reason, you will still get a high chance of life.

However in fermi's paradox you can reverse the equation and find the probabilities needed to ensure the equation shows no life, they just require a very very low ratio. But yea there is a threshold in fermi's paradox where "if life is less likely than this number then life likely wouldnt exis"

The key difference here is now we are thinking about the whole (non-observable) universe and working up. The idea that **any** probability garuntees life, and that from that life's perspective there would be an empty **observable** universe is very much a departure from fermis paradox.

@dbc3

Thats interesting.
