Sometime in the 22nd century. Depopulation does wonders for the environment. Look at the DMZ or Chernobyl.

What responsibility means in your life recognized as a unique and special one?

Hi,

what does /sci/ know about the relationship between the natural sciences and the Roman-Catholic church in the middle ages?

From what I heard the church funded much research (and of course education among its members) and wasn't at all repressing scientists to the extent that is popularly portrayed.

A common misconception:
>Historians of science David Lindberg and Ronald Numbers point out that "there was scarcely a Christian scholar of the Middle Ages who did not acknowledge [Earth's] sphericity and even know its approximate circumference".
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_Flat_Earth


Please let's have a civil discussion that focuses on actual facts and not on namecalling.

Not really.
You're a worthless piece of shit making lots of a worthless currency that you will use on worthless things. You're probably trolling anyway.
So, no. Nobody cares about your shitty job doing nothing and making money except to condemn you and spit on your feet because you're a leech.

If it was faster than sound that doesn't necessarily mean its slower than light,
fucking idiot.

Hey /sci/
theres a particle thats actually faster than the speed of light and sound.
which proves einstine was wrong with his theory of e=mc2..

>Does america even have enough oil to sustain its army?

Yes, actually. There are vast reserves, and, in a time of urgency like the proposed scenario, I highly doubt there will be much opposition to harvesting the massive amounts of oil currently protected by nature reserves and such

You don't seem to understand the purpose of child support. The child-less partner does not pay child support as some sort of punishment or something, but rather to ensure that the child has the best possible life in spite of the separation of his/her parents.

Yes, they are. :P
I just prefer "spatial" because I always read "spacial" as "space-ee-ull." >.>

He said SPATIAL dimension, not temporal.

I suppose it's just because math, unlike all the other subjects, must be APPLIED to real world situations. Every other subject is FROM the real world, whereas math must be put into the real world. This disconnect should not be an issue, but unfortunately math is taught quite poorly in most schools.
(On that last note: honestly, after a single year in college, I felt as though I would make a better high school math teacher than most. Math is high school is just "hey here's an equation memorize it here are some relations memorize them oh don't bother with how they are related or why they are just remember them kay?)

This situation can be easily understood if you keep in mind that the length L of the rod initially slightly less than the distance D between the portals.
In welding the ends together, you add some small length of material to the rod, such that L=D.
A) The rod does not move. It is being supported by itself (were the case that L<D, rather than L=D, the rod would acceleration downward).
B) The rod is crushed. Imagine a stick: you push the end toward the center, and what happens?
C) The closing portal slices the rod. [If I recall correctly, the game would not allow new portals to be formed if there was an object in a portal. That this would be the case in real life seems implausible; as such, slicing of the object in the portals is what would most likely happen.]

Care to explain why my 2ly long, 1.5ly circumference dick is no more than a pipe dream?

30Mb/s is better, but the extra 75Mb/s down is not worth the massive decrease in up, as well as the inconvenience of living in Russia.
