Just_a_Reader6mthReplied to LazycowYou can be certain that there are no real grunts on board. The privilege of the rich also ensures who is allowed to work and who isn't.It is no surprise if they cheat a few more of their people on board
Based on the laws of the Earth Federation, 2,500 passengers and 500 crew members on SS Origin would be prosecuted by the Federation Court for "treason", and the assets under their name would be returned to the federation treasury. The World Federation Reserve and Its partner banks would list the assets for auction.- Just_a_Reader6mthReplied to Zeke12344
Remember that the theory of electricity is much more complicated than whatever is thaught in school. If you think that you could explain it as just a flow of electrons, remember as well that theory of atoms were not proven till the end of the 20th century.
It was like getting Watt from the eighteenth century to understand the alternating current from the end of the nineteenth century. There was no way to understand something invisible, and it was the problem that scientists from all over the world shared. - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
The parents will have an interesting surprise
"Tomorrow, I plan to take you, uh... to get to know them." - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
will he ever get the chance to enjoy that side as well? Will he get the chance to strife for a potentially even better future and fight on that side against the bugs, or will the apocalypse be a way out for them should the need arise. Like he kept the rich from building a space ship to flee, but has a personal world he can run to.
Originally, he thought that he would perform some dangerous and glorious task on behalf of the General, but he did not expect the mission was just to enter and exit a luminous door while blindfolded. Then he took blood tests and laid down in the scanning cabin for a comprehensive examination. In the end, he was inexplicably awarded a battle medal and praised by the general. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to SquareDao
But does that matter for machines that much? You don't have to move people regularly, so even if it is a week for them it is not much of a lose, but more a win in time. You get 7 days for the price of 2 or 1. How often didn't we all wish that the weekend wouldn't end with just 2 days?
Celestial Trade could build two or more "portals" with this technology between the Earth and Mars, and then use the time-growth nature of the neutrino channel. The journey that would have taken a week to complete could perhaps be completed in three days (outside time), or even one day. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to SquareDao
But isn't there also a connection between speed, mass and time? The closer you get to light speed, the heavier you become, but also time passes slower for you.
In the neutrino tunnel, the material moving in the direction of the neutrino experienced more time than the outside world. And this also meant that the material moving in the neutrino tunnel moved faster than the outside world. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to
Maybe nothing would happen, or it could shred the whole solar system to pieces.
What if... two doors opened in the same world? - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to Lemon_Square
Fitting, considering they have to fight Tyranids.
The ultimate goal of Celestial Trade was to eliminate all borders and upgrade the Earth Defense Alliance to the Earth Federation. So as the "emperor", or the "president" of the Earth Federation, he not only had to consider the interests of Celestial Trade, but also the interests of the entire Earth Federation as a whole. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to FactsOnly
Using gas the bacteria creates an insulator while also warming itself up high enough to live. It takes in gas and creates a liquid, where the process itself is amazing as it is exothermic
"Using methane and ethane as reactants, the metabolite black alkane is generated through a biochemical reaction, and the reaction exotherms the heat needed to sustain life activities of the bacteria. The black alkane itself has a strong thermal insulation effect and fills the rock mass that the loose and porous bacteria is attached to. No wonder this kind of bacteria can survive in an environment with an average temperature of minus 180 degrees Celsius!" - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
the enemies and anti surveillance agencies will do the cruelty
"...No need, I came here to confirm their safety... now my goal has been achieved." Emma shook her head and looked at Bernice seriously. Then with pleading in her voice, "I hope you can keep your promise and not do cruel things to them." - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
imaginary? Only in the sense that no cold war or hot war broke out between them, but still a geopolitical and ideological enemy. At least for the people, the super rich they are buddies.
Not long ago, Celestial Trade defeated Hua's imaginary enemy, the UA. However, he did not feel the obvious joy from the above, but rather, the reaction had been incredibly peaceful. - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
He already has everything else he could want and could colonize it alone, but it's great to have friends.
"I'm not maliciously speculating about our allies, but I really want to know, why are they doing this?" - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to
The beacon of humanity, helping them navigate and always find their way home to the cradle.
Perhaps it was his illusion, but Trump felt that Jiang Chen desired far more... - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to woodzrox
To much supply. Not even the whole forest would be able to get rid of all that quickly.
Even after a week, the bodies were still not cleaned up, and they started to smell. Two months later, people could still find rotting corpses belonging to the rebel army on the mountain from time to time. - Just_a_Reader2yrCommented
Transform into a space marine. Never miss, always perfect, just like a real Astrates.
"PEERLESS—" - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to woodzrox
It is made to run from the enemy, not towards them. At least that is what I would be telling myself as an engineer, without knowing the MC.
It was the last insurance on the custom-designed Luer vehicle, a T-3 power armor was built into the back seat and occupied half the trunk. Not only that, the armor was reinforced with titanium alloy. It was also changed from equipped from the rear to equipped from the front, so it could be assembled quickly. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to Beta_Tauri
nope, pure capitalism also doesn't work. It is a profit driven approach, if it were cheaper and more profitable to slaughter children after birth, by the capitalistic system that would also be done. That is why I said that I do not believe any pure system will work. Socialism divides the cost by all people of the society, while trying to equalize the chances. Communism equalizes everything and divides not only the costs, but also the gains. So higher productivity does not give a direct noticable gain per person. Capitalism does not divide anything, it amplifies any differences in starting positions and drives. It also gives a pretty direct link between the work you put in and the rewards you get out.
Never expect the capitalists to have any morals. They would cheer for their own interests and encourage the patriots to charge forward, but they would not shed even a single tear for this country after its fall. - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to Beta_Tauri
Democracy itself isn't, only the illusion of it is. But whatever, neither russia, nor China or USA are democratic.
"We will assist the people of the UA in amending the Constitution and give Congress more power, such as returning the right to declare war to Congress. For example, amending the antitrust law. The UA after the war will be more 'democratic' than ever, and it will be easier for us to control... - Just_a_Reader2yrReplied to Kaiser_Nephilim
no more than a while bottle in a day, but take it weekly, for 3 months. so 12 bottles. At least that is how I would understand it
"You only need to take one bottle a day, once a week, for three months," Jiang Chen smiled, before he continued, "Then you will find that you are a lot younger than you are now."
