An Inconvenient Truth

[Xhumed]

Your base personality changes every 7 years as do your bones.

Sourced or just your personal opinion? I confess I'm intrigued if that's true.

Sourced for skin and for bones. Personal opinion with some backing evidence for personality. Just tracking the source now. Every 7 years, there's a life-definining stage which shifts how your brain processes information based on your survival.
0-7 : Idea of Self
7-14 : Strengthen Self(for puberty)
14-21: Idea of Others
21-28: Idea of Society etc.

Wasn't that Erikson? Originator of the concept of the mid-life crisis?

Within most of our lifetimes, we'll all own computers that are smarter than us.

I think so, it's been some time since I did my Psychology exams and Google is no help when it just sends you to pay sites.

Why do people call them Ruskees anyway? Where did that term come from? It takes just as long to say "Russians" as "Ruskees" so why the necessity for a change?

Because Russian for Russian is русский, or 'rooski'. So they started it.

Humans aren’t causing climate change.

Communism is good; people who run communism are bad.

Bill Clinton was the last democratically elected president of the USA

You're welcome. I'm just pleased I got to put my keyboard in to Cyrillic mode. I wonder if I could mod my keyboard with a giant Soviet-era red button to do that, rather than the ol' pointy-clicky I do now...

the US put the taliban in power in the first place, during the cold war. irony

The Earth can only sustain less than 2 billion human beings on a long term basis (or even less in most theories).

Only one thing to do:
Suicide pact! You first!

Communism is good; people who run communism are bad.

The original idea of communism was genius, it just didn't have the right people in charge.

The most inconvenient truth is the one about us dying...
Everybody dies.
Our lives, ticking away.

Scientists theorize that there is an infinitely small but non-zero chance that an atom can spontaneously wink out of existence, which, by extension, means that there is an infinitely small but non-zero chance that a molecule can spontaneously wink out of existence. Further this, and there's a chance that you could wake up tomorrow wondering what the EFF happened to your genetalia. Either that, or everything you know and love could just dissapear, litterally.

The large hadron collider is supposedly capable of creating black holes. The people running the machine think that they can control any black holes created this way.
