I travel by train. That book does not remain unopened.

In this case, kill would have been less specific, more sanitized.

I think being specific was better.

Without capitalism, maybe they wouldn’t have continued when they found out there wasn’t enough DNA for complete dinosaurs.

Or maybe they would have had enough time to think things through, and use safer/more appropriate replacement DNA.

Just spit balling.

The first one is supposed to be chemtrails, or other weather manipulation from conspiracy theories.

And a great developer, with an active and very friendly community.

Or, the next president, with any luck a democrat, will be so afraid of the backlash from radical Christians, that they won’t change it back.

Won’t be the first time something happens.

Henry Kissinger.

The Postman by David Brin is an interesting novel about rebuilding after an apocalypse, marred by superman.

That’s as much as I’m going to say.

Next step, modesty rules.

Comparing to most other smartphones, I agree with you.

But compared to previous Fairphones, this is a downgrade.

But yeah, there are other issues, like the USB downgrade, which is not great.

When I read that, it decided me on the phone. I was almost completely certain my FP4 replacement would be the FP6, but the USB downgrade makes it a no-go for me.

Too bad, because I love the easy repairability.

Meaning what, that movie adaptations are not necessary? I know that.

The posted list put Dune in with movies that were made based purely on the success of their predecessor, which is not the case for Dune.

Now, while the sequel wouldn’t have been made if its predecessor hadn’t been successful, the books are the driver behind making the movies.

Dune messiah a franchise exploit? How?

It’s based on the next book in the series. There is a reason for it to exist beyond making money.

Maybe the plastic of the bottle flexes more, whereas glass doesn’t move, so the cap scrapes against it more.

WHAT CAN THE HARVEST HOPE FOR, IF NOT FOR THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?

But, if you trust her, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Or is it that you (in this hypothetical situation) don’t truly trust her, otherwise you’d trust her around people you don’t trust.

And that’s okay, just don’t pretend it’s actually trust.

A mocha pot? But then I’d still have to buy coffee beans, which are a luxury, right? Not buying a mocha pot means you don’t have to buy coffee either, thus saving even more money.

And that could go for all luxuries, to the point that life is just working to be able to work.

And none of this would be necessary if wages were higher overall, and there was a good social safety net.

Tell government to tax the rich, instead of telling people to forego their pleasures.

Why though? Why not just give yourself up, and prevent your friends from getting guiltridden in the process?

Sounds like a bad friend to me.

I was joking, though. There are actually people who wear sandwich boards with religious messages on them, specifically to fulfil the call to proselytise.

They often stand near shops.

I almost respect people who really try to talk to me more for actually fulfilling the spirit of it, rather than the letter.

It’s a bit like being told to go out into the world and tell everyone about your religion, and you do it by taping a cardboard sheet to your front and back with “Jesus is Lord” written on it.
