Now, she just pisses me off. It's ok to claim ridiculous feats for your OC, it's not ok to diminish those who strapped themselves to unproven tech, at great personal risk, to explore the unknown. --- System error, signature not found. |

| Mussurana 11/07/25 4:39:21 PM #19 | darkace77450 posted... Republicans are too feckless to make him Julius. Plus, Julius didn't have bone spurs. I agree, it's a terrible insult to Julius Caesar. A man who slept on campaign on the bare ground, wrapped only in his cloak. His hardiness, an inspiration to his troops. None of this in anyway reflects Cadet Bonespurs of course. The thinking is more towards Julius as Dictator. His flirtations with the trappings of the deposed Kings, and the limits of his term as dictator. Everything resonates, challenging his term limits, Xcrement posts where he has a crown, it is all the same. You might not recognise it, but I do, and so do Steve Bannon and Steven Miller. I recognise it because I love history, they emulate it because they love that history. Once Europe and the Near East was a patchwork of city states, each with varying degrees of representation, and a constitutional crisis all their own. Then Rome came, all fell under it's sway, until the great men owned so much, they bought the state itself. You're at this point, and your Julius constantly seeks to see if you'll let him have his crown. I suspect he'll fail, but an Augustus will crown himself without you realising it, just as Octavion did. --- System error, signature not found. |

| Topic | Why not just start seeding planets with life? |
| Mussurana 11/07/25 3:52:39 PM #28 | Tyranthraxus posted... I mean it's the single biggest block to seeding life. Things only get more difficult when you start talking about trying to send people to those planets. By restricting this exercise to unmanned craft and something like bacterial endospores, assuming unlimited resources making this strictly an engineering problem, the water is your stopping point. Sure, but assuming you solved all that engineering shit (a lot of assuming). All of that tech has heat as a by product of work done, and assuming you landed on an ice cap (be an idiot not to), you will be producing a great deal of waste heat from your day to day operations (aka your reactor, and all of your machines) to produce water from that cap. No doubt many many difficult hoops to navigate, but water supply isn't necessarily one of them. --- System error, signature not found. |

Not going to lie, not in the mood for research tonight. Arguably potential water resources on various bodies? Not that this isn't all incredibly challenging, requiring enormous investment in tech, time, resources, and possibly critically political will. Nb.

You can't just fire a couple million tons of manure at the moon and expect it to turn that airless rock into a rainforest in a couple billion years or something like that. Well... about that... A whole bunch of microbes might be what you need to get a breathable (by our standards) atmosphere. One of the first mass extinctions here, was because of that disgusting, corrosive, toxic, gas, oxygen. --- System error, signature not found. |

| Mussurana 11/07/25 1:37:53 PM #32 | Honestly TC? If eating out is a treat, rather than regular, just accept the extra salt/fat/whatever content as something to pay off. Most professional chefs do add more salt than necessary (salt is tasty, plus if you get used to the flavour, it's natural to add even more). As long as the restaurant isn't your primary food source, and you eat healthily at home, it shouldn't be too big an issue. --- System error, signature not found. |

A debate does not require that everyone else involved has to agree with your core premise and, if anything, if a debate is to be real then if someone makes a fundamental mistake then even those that agree with you should be behooved in pointing out your fault.

Prospective system scouted by probes : insert time frame of centuries here. Some form of colonial transport constructed, whether generation ship, crogenic sleeper, gene bank, blah, blah, blah whatever, also centuries. This time frame is longer than our civilisations usually manage (quite outside the many many technical challenges), in an age where the political news cycle changes on the hour.

I find the "God is benevolent and loves all of us" viewpoint actually insulting given the state of the world, but maybe that's just me being weird about it. Maybe he's a scientist, observing the bacteria in his petri dish? Or a child, pulling the wings off butterflies, if you're feeling pessimistic? Alternatively, fairness, justice, equality etc, are entirely human constructs, and do not exist in nature. They are artificial, and yet, we can achieve them, by our own means. This doesn't make such concepts lesser, quite the reverse, they are ours. We created them, we aspire to them, and with effort, we can possess them. --- System error, signature not found. |

Everything was written down while Muhammad was alive and there's not multiple accounts of the same event and so on. It's very concise. Just no. Much like Christianity, once a great political power had hold of it, a great deal of editing ensued. It's a common myth, I blame Gibbons personally, that Islam sits on firmer ground than other religions. It doesn't really. Just like the others, only edited texts centuries after the fact exist, molded to fit the needs of ruling powers. Not that the German theologians are allowed to look at ancient Korans these days, caused too much trouble (no, I don't know why it's always German theologians, apparently those lads are super keen on kicking away the flimsy scaffolding of belief, it's their thing ok?) Letting proper scholars at your holy book is generally a bad idea, ask Christians, or indeed the Jews (I believe it was a Jew in Cordoba, who first proved that Moses could not possibly have written Genesis.

Now he employs a team of superheroes of all religions (and lack of) to end suffering and create utopia. He doesnt want to be worshipped anymore as he feels guilty. So instead of going by God, he goes by Guy. Cuz he just feels like a guy now. Isn't this essentially prophets plus a touch of Deism? --- System error, signature not found. |

I'm over 50, and that's easily achievable stuff (I quite understand that others have picked up injuries or conditions, got more than a few issues and twinges myself, just not enough that these minimal conditions would present much of an obstacle). Of course, the youngsters ought to do much, much better. It's a not unreasonable base fitness level tbh.
