Re: Why can't we just keep accelerating in space?

So where do ion drives (as recentlyish tested fit in) - Slow acceleration, but velocity can carry on increasing until fuel spent?

All of those had weaknesses
1. The Borg were defeated,
2. The Replicators where held indefinitely in a statis field.


Now the Q - beings that were only (as I recall) weak against their own kinds - now THEY could be definite contenders.

Re: How much of a role does alcohol play in your lives?

Plays a bit of a role, in that on Shabbos we have a vodka or whiskey shooter after service for a lechaim.  I make a point to stop at one (maybe 2 if wife driving).  Otherwise I will have maybe a beer at a family function.   

There is nothing inherently wrong with alchohol - but drinking to the point of being drunk is not drinking in moderation and rather that person shouldn't drink - period.

Don't confuse zero interest rates as free loans - they are not - they charge a 'profit'.

If you follow a religion, well then you want a place to worship.

Since govt don't just give money - some form of donation is required.  Now a religion that says you _HAVE_ to give X or go to HELL or otherwise - thats just not kosher.

If you're a developer don't forget
fileseek @ http://www.fileseek.ca/ - the free version is very good ... and fast.
don't recall anyone telling you to get openoffice @ http://www.openoffice.org/ / libreoffice @ https://www.libreoffice.org/ if you don't already have a fully paid m$ office.

My gmail was hacked once in the past, got it resolved very quickly and never happened again. That was back before they had 2FA.

I wouldn't be so confident that Microsoft doesn't scan emails.

Happened to me too, they changed password and secondary email recovery option - BUT forgot to change the SMS recovery option.

Now happily on 2FA for most of my gmail accounts.

Re: Colonizing Mars

I just want to live long enough (and in good mental and physical health) - to see the first person put foot on mars (and preferably still be alive to see them come back!).

As to actual colonising Mars with anything more than a handful of people - I thnk that is decades away given all the supporting infrastructure that would be required.

Stop caring what other people think - if it works for you great.

Re: No Devcoin Payment for round 33 and 34
by
golem
on 21/04/2014, 17:34:27 UTC
Please after registering on devtome and writing my contents, is being two rounds now (33 and 34) and when the round of 33 receivers account was posted, my name( asaretheo ) or account wasn't part and when I put in my user name on the countdown page, it shows zero for all the two rounds.

You can check my user page on devtome (http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=wiki:user:asaretheo). I please wanted to ask that is there something that I am not doing right or what. Also my account has not been rated on devtome.

I was approved by "FuzzyBear". I have tried to message him but any time I do  it say I have to wait for 360 seconds.

 Please help me because I am worried.  Sad  Sad  Sad  Sad  Sad

Hi,
 Direct your query to http://coinzen.org/index.php - thats where most of the DVC stuff is handled.
The 360 thing is just cause you not allowed to do multiple posts in a short period as a newbie.

  Good luck, I'm also waiting! Smiley

Re: A warning to all

Some of you may not be happy with the positive powers coming over earth.  Even though, you should be.

This is a warning that if any of you attempt to kill me, all you will do is prove my reality right.  In which that moment I would gain supernatural abilities.

Either I will float, you bullet will go through me or you will die from your own terror before you could get yourself to kill me.

You cannot kill love.

Accept the change.

Hi,
  I'd like to give you this magic prozac pill - no emotion no love.  No need to kill you, and the men in white will be over shortly.

Re: What If Life Was Just A Thought?

Row Row Row your boat, gently down the stream merrily merrily  merrily, life is but a dream.

I think (regardless of the true meaning) - that the idea is - dream or not - take an active stance in your life and _DO_ something (row the boat) not just sit around pondering if its a dream.  It really doesn't matter.
