When it comes to architecture....and actual engineering....computer science....medicine.....cooking...and in fact most things, we are assured AI will sweep away, the reality is all bathrooms, and no kitchens.

All I can think of is Monty Python updated for 2025 tech-bros. Listen. Strange men lying in ponds distributing words is no basis for a system of education. Supreme educational power derives from a wealth of rigorously informed skeptical scientifically minded mandates and informed inquiry from the people, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

He was one of these guys who started off very low key and having been a former evangelical preacher absolutely wrecked that demographic because he was just unafraid to drop some biblical knowledge in the middle of obliterating someone's clutched pearls.

I suspect we don't. Although wouldn't it be something if we either mitigated that - or if we're not able to prevent massive sea-rise / temperature changes, deconstructing cities , I know that global warming means 30+feet of change for sure, which is devistating to the eastern United States, and especially eastern China.

Well, I think if Manhattan is a water-feature, so New York, Boston,Charlotte, Miami,New Orleans , Tianjin, Shanghai, Dakka , Mumbai, and Bangalore all goes the way of Atlantis, and Beijing, Princeton and is beachfront propertt.

And as time would have it - turns out Adama's opinion is sometimes more of a suggestion.

Miracl3W0rd3r - I have to say your colony is amazing how many colonists do you typically run with?

Think of it as a public service, you're getting Alex to put his tounge to a FAR FAR better use, and if you have to get tail-up/face down for the good of the country than by God man, it's your patriotic duty to do so, I suppose you can think of England if it makes you feel any better :)

IDK Part of me sees that really as Alex's Best Destiny - some people deeply know what they really want to do in live - so if you're the sort of dude in the greater Houston area that enjoys a bear of a guy chowing down on your tail , than it sounds like Alex is just your kind of guy. Most people aren't usually that public about it though.

He IS a murderer - negligent/indifferent murder of hundreds of thousands of Ivermectin and hydrochloroquine drinking people died un-necessasrily.

It's odd , I don't domesticate bonding animals , but once upon a time I did, I still find the game a bit ridiculous given the violence inflicted on your hapless colonists, the only luck in the universe is whatever you can make for them.

Maybe someone should write a book from the perspective of Dapple and Rocinante.

I actually did have occasion to harvest a couple of lungs and a kidney or two on this run, but like most things, once everything got what they needed we don't advertise the talents of our colony's surgery practices.

Exactly, although I must admit to the idea that I'd like him to experience incarceration however pleasant. If Martha Stewart can do her time, so can Donnie.

It isn't can be a bit harsh - but it's about a good bit of keeping low.

Sorry conviction vs. convication - it's a cofefe moment and I recognize that.

It is , perhaps 10,000 years from now it's just two old gaucho's taking a moment to reflect on the natural beauty of an impending eclipse.
