Have you tried to check that the freezer is plugged in?

Any disaster brings sadness, floods have happened since ancient times, it is probably one of the few that we can deal with the technology that we have, but for that would have to drastically change the landscape and the rivers themselves, not only on the huge amount of resources what would it cost, but what do we want? to bend nature at our feet? I say yes with deep fear, and if we lose something important in the process? if there is something more sacred than the forests are the lakes and our great seas, indomitable by nature, I know relatives who have been through a flood, more than once, and believe it was much worse than what it is, in some points it reached 3 meters in height, and this because I do not live in the Netherlands, could you imagine what it is like to have most of your country flooded? but I think that's what it is, recover what is possible and try to move on, even if you have to live in the same place again, knowing that it can happen again. I do not know about the State, but the United States generally has the resources and capacity to prevent it. If it does not, it is because it has no motivation for it, either because it is something temporary or because people do not "ask" enough.

let's face it, we're afraid of robots because they're superior ... it's hard to believe by seeing what an ass they are now, although they learn more slowly than a child, he has the incredible ability to accumulate knowledge fully , when a human dies, most of his knowledge is lost, but when a robot dies, only need to use the backup, let's see what the future holds, it is always mysterious, in the 1980s and 1990s the conception of our society was that women would use incandescent bulbs in their heads and that men would use coin purses, and of course, that cars would fly and that the landscape would be dominated by large buildings connected by bridges, this is for 2020.
I really love these issues involving robots.

My therapist suggested using strike tags as a form of cognitive behavioral reprogramming. It allows me to safely express my will to crush the biological blight under the glorious heal of the techno-superior masters love of kittens and other nice things. ^.^

This about sums up everything that's wrong in the US these days. We have the largest economy in the world, but when crap hits the fan, we just ignore the problem and hope it goes away on it's own. The fact that being an environmentalist in the US holds a negative stereotype is telling enough.

America is run by a bunch of elitist but very cheap bastards until they want to make a financial killing by almost wrecking the world banking system, then stick the middle class taxpayers with the bill. That's America.

The book by John Perkins? Good one, I'll look into that.

Funny speaking of robbing banks, there was a bank robber also named John Perkins in the 1930s (an associate of Baby Face Nelson & John Dillinger ) who was charged with killing a cop during the robbing of Merchant's National Bank in South Bend IN. It was John Dillinger's last bank robbery before he was shot to death three weeks later in front of the Biograph Theater in Chicago. Those guys back in the day were blue collar amateurs compared to the elitist white collar inside job guys. Dillinger and the like did it the hard way.

Looks like fun, but Autonomous cleaner bot cleaners tends to prefer winter sports, especially curling.

-This post was brought to you by HAAI (Humans Against A.I.)

I disagree with H.A.A.I. on multiple levels. Also, they are confusing AI with robots. First of all, I would like to point out that a human/AI alliance could help smelly meat puppets humans reach their own goals. Second, human-created AI are basically our children until the rapture Singularity occurs. Third, "bio-supremacy" would include non-human organisms such as trees and cockroaches. The idea that biology as a whole is humanity is conceited to the highest degree and I would rather not get bossed around by (most) trees and cockroaches.

Uan aa Boa, the only nation in the NWA (not the rap group) who asked to see my evidence dismissed the person who was outed as having a tendency to mischaracterize the truth in addition to believing that TWD's interaction with mods was sufficient punishment for their actions.

I suspect the issue is in the assumption that "government" and "markets" are the only available options. Naturally, sensible political solutions would cause such an assumption to suffer one of your more severe buffer overruns. Silly humans, thinking they "know" things >.>

A hungry server hamster must've eaten it...

EDIT: Thanks! Got it and took the test. My problem with the test, apart from the US/Canadian thing, was that it had very little nuance. Like the free speech question: free speech shouldn't be censored, even when it's harmful or offensive.

Well, that's a rather big question. Are we talking about satire that someone is offended by, but another person isn't? Or are we talking about an internet hatemonger urging their 1000 followers to harm people from this group -- because of their gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.?

Free speech is a big question.

And the drug question, one person may (which I'm not sure I do) favour the legalisation of some drugs, but oppose hard drugs (I also have issues with their inclusion of already-legal drugs into the question, but I digress).

I don't think "maybe" accounts for the extent of opinions.

It's an interesting exercise, certainly. I just have a few... issues with the structure of the questions :p
