I've never heard anyone with first hand experience complain about living in North Korea. They literally can't complain.

I'm not convinced that just cash will solve homelessness or poverty. It may help, but it seems like a "give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime" kinda situation. Give people the fish so they can eat, but if you want them to actually be independent, then you gotta make sure they have the tools they need to do so.
I think the reason you've taken so much flak is that money isn't fish. Money can be converted into tools. Yes, of course you're right that some people won't use the money in a way which will end their homelessness, and may benefit from 'other programs'. But the meme was specifically about people objecting to the idea of giving poor people money so that they can solve their own problems. Rolling out 'other programs' is great, but the 'other programs' will be much more effective if they're not clogged with people that can solve their own problems with a bit of cash.
Have they looked at masers? Basically rf lasers.i think they're much cheaper than lasers and could be steered at drones but would only need enough power to interfere with guidance/ controls
What about a shotgun shell but each pellet is crimped around the midpoint of a bundle of carbon fibers
Don't write that down. Do you hear me?
We hear you loud and clear.
Yeah true, but I think they actually use wavelength of red shift, which is distance.... traveled by light in the time it takes to make a full cycle. So I guess we're back to seconds again.
I think they use this for distance and time because at scales being dealt with they have the same implications.
I think you need to be more specific than 'long distance', yes they use parsecs for 'long distances' but I believe only for intra-galactic objects. I think other galaxies are too distant for parallax seconds to be useful.
Don't they measure distance and time by redshift (ie colour)
Mate it's a meme from 17 years ago, not 2017. It's from 2007.
It's the
... like such as the Iraq...
Clip right?
Anybody else feel like it's pretty sexist to liken the anticipated performance of the vice president of the USA to a teen beauty pageant contestant?
"What'S SUP"
Anyone interested in this should check out superfastmatt (YouTube) he has a video series where he converts a Dodge Viper for offroading.

This goose has adopted my parents, and is attempting to establish residency in their cabin. We suspect it is domestic and escaped from its coop. It's a seasonal cabin and they're planning to close up soon. What should they do? Central Ontario. Near Bracebridge.
UPDATE: A neighbor of theirs is set up for chickens, so could accommodate a goose. And shortly after making that arrangement an ad appeared in the community message board. So the goose is going home.

THPS 1+2 (the HD remake) is excellent but they decided not to do a THPS3+4 remake. Presumably due to low numbers. BUT online is broken. What I mean by broken is that you basically can't log in to the server if your console is connected to the internet through a router. As far as I know Activision never acknowledged that failure. Do you think this problem might have hurt sales/microtransaction revenue?
