Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Which it probably won't be anyway. China and India aren't going to keep having a billion people forever, it is the nature of modernizing societies to reduce birthrates.
As soon as I posted that, it occurred to me that there's not much point to a meeting shitting on a roomful of people who think they're exempt from the shitting.
Article: A cure for grey hair which means millions will be able to throw away messy dyes may not be too far off, researchers have said.
Treatment Discovered by Scientists
A cure...may not be too far off

you wanna explore neil degrasse tyson's dick
Just a note for him if he finds those schematics. You can make an AR-15 lower without legal issue. But the NFA still applies to homemade weapons, so he's going to need to make it a semi-automatic.
It's like the expeditions to the antarctic around the turn of the century. Hundreds of people died doing something expensive and pointless!
Then 50 years later we flew in with B52s and landed on top of the south pole like bosses. Human race #1.
Um you clearly take points from strength or constitution first : (
In space!
SpaceX has a mostly-working supply system to the ISS. Beyond that, commercial satellites have been taken care of by private industry for a long time now.
Doing manned stuff is way more expensive (past suborbital stuff like Virgin Galactic anyway) and there isn't any money in it yet. No money in pure science stuff, either.
Conservatives are pretty often not ok with body modification.
Like some yes. As long as it doesn't transgress social norms.
But uh, yeah.
It is, but it's also their nature to dramatically increase per-capita resource consumption. If the Indians and the Chinese don't have a single baby from here on out, but still continue developing, that alone is going to put existential levels of load on already-stretched global resources.
Never mind the environmental impact.
It seems like whenever people get out of the subsistence standards of living, birth rates drop like a rock. Get rid of the Catholic Church's no birth control, ever attitude, and things should start to stabilize out pretty well.
Of course, our current numbers do a pretty good job fucking the planet all on their own, so that's still a bit of an issue. But we don't need to start exterminating / sterilizing people to save the planet.
I'm going to add here that no one is saying homemade guns are new or anything. I only mentioned what the company did to add context for the quote.
No, not a requirement at all.
boobies all flopping in odd directions
cumshots just dribbling out of a penis and kinda hanging there
Because that's how science journalism works.
"We have found a gene which seems to reduce the incidence of certain kinds of leukemia by ten percent in this strain of lab rats"
"A cure for cancer just around the corner? This paper says yes!"
i think we need to curb birthrates so there aren't any people anymore
It's just interesting that there is hysteria over 3D printed guns when the tech is considerably less mature than and comparably expensive to basic cnc equipment.
I suppose it's because people can envisage 3D printing being a true consumer technology (in the "one in every home" sense)? Or they're just not thinking that hard about it.
Basically I think that if you were a generally bad person looking to make (as opposed to buy, or steal) an untraceable gun for nefarious purposes you'd almost certainly buy or rent a CNC machine and use that with any of the freely available schematics online before you'd even consider 3D printing.
And those modern Chinese and Indians are going to begin demanding clean water, electricity, heat, a house with two cars and a white picket fence.
body modification is disgusting
an affront to nature and god
OH MY GOD
SOMEONE DO THIS
THIRTY FOOT AWAY FACIAL
i don't think that stuff is launched by gravity
Or just constitution in older systems.
Charisma is the way you work with what you got.
Neil deGrasse Tyson had managed to seduce an entire impressionable generation of youth into enthusiasm for space exploration.
Damn you and your conspicuous resemblance to Billy Dee Williams!
People still find the idea of genetically modified foods scary, even though it is most of what we eat
I think it's more that people just aren't aware that making guns isn't some super tricky arcane art that only wizards can do.
They think that, and then see 3D printed guns and go "oh shit!"
If George Lucas is right, then space chicks don't wear bras.
Far be it from me to defend science journalism! It's horrendous. But there is a difference between a treatment discovered and a cure developed. The treatment for grey hair might be lethal, for example, killing everyone who gets it. That's not a functional cure for anything!

I think you'd have to like, launch yourself into the cum nebula to get a good facial going
I'm kinda surprised someone hasn't rented that commercial version of the 'Vomit Comet' and made a zero-g porno.
And you know people have gotten it on in space.
There is an article on this.
The truth is that you can't not get a boner in space.

Nope.
And I'm not looking up quotes from astronauts about this again.
Ropes of semen hanging in the...cockpit.... like silly string
A giggling man floats by, hand over hand across the bulkhead, narrowly dodging a sluggish pale tendril
maybe YOU can't
It's still misleading, especially for people who won't consider the difference between "treatment" and "cure". It's like those articles every three months that promises cancer/heart disease/diabetes delete where appropriate is about to be eliminated.
Right. The Polish Resistance turned out large quantities of guns during the war without access to large scale manufacturing. The 3-D Printing aspect is just a tech panic. Right now they have managed to make a single shot disposable gun. Which might be useful for Hollywood assassins I guess.
