It's the classic smart person trap of not knowing they sound really retarded when they try to talk about something outside the field they are an expert in.
The Zizek debate was a great demonstration of this at many subtle levels. He brought out his classic lobster hierarchy BS and Zizek dismantled it in 2 sentences, as well as the basic bad assumption that Marxism means no hierarchies.
The thing is, when real big daddy intellectuals talk out of their specialized field, it's usually because they have really informed themselves about that subject. Jordie really does not give enough of a fuck to do this for almost anything he talks about that isn't psychology.
But even ignoring all of that, he's just immensely overrated as a public intellectual purely because he made a public stand that was perceived as being anti-SJW and the internet epic gamer BEN SHAPIRO OWNS LIBTARD contingent latched on to him as a result. The best indication of this is that books he has written are frankly trash. They're pretty popular but they are trash, kind of like a 50 Shades of Grey. The books by someone like Zizek (I only use him as an example because they shared a stage as if they were equals, when that couldn't be further from the truth, so he's a great demonstration) are of the type that will be studied for generations because they are original and groundbreaking..
As an actual intellectual he's more similar to the level of some cunt like Sam Harris. -

Edit: doesn't remotely guarantee a win though before Republicans start chomping out over the potential of it failing. -

Originally posted by 8stringflinG Yeah, we got a new rover launching next year and actual plans to bring humans to Mars in the next 10-15yrs. Russia has plans to get there by 2040.
Venus poses too many variables and is too dangerous to colonize. A solid rock is what we need. The moon obviously will be the first to actually get colonized.
Sending rovers isn't interest in colonizing Mar, that's just scientific research.
Sending a man to Mars doesn't mean colonization, that's just scientific research.
We were sending probes to Venus decades before the first Mars mission. We sent a moon to the moon decades ago and haven't colonized it.
We don't even have a NASA concept for a person to visit Mars on the same order as HAVOC. -

Mars is more feasible nigga. You think you know better than NASA? Kill yourself you filthy nigger.
It would be easier to mine Helium from the moon.
Venus is more feasible, as shown in the above quote by NASA. -

Originally posted by vindicktive vinny its kind of retarded to think oils are created in a specific time period and stopped.
this is not true. the earth produces oil on a daily basis and it never stops, and oils arent made from dead dinosaurs, they're made from soils, which are feceses and bodies of dead creatures, of not just dinosaurs but also of cows and birds and dogs and trees and your great grandpas.
oils are a renewable form of energy people, and trillions of barrels of it are being produced in the belly of the earth while your asleep.
on a daily basis.
No. Most dead shit turns into coal. Only dead phytoplankton turn into oil, and that takes 100m years. 80% of our oil today was formed in the palaeozoic and early to mid Mesozoic era, i.e. 150-500m years ago, because the Earth was warm and there were a shitload of phytoplankton that died and got buried. Cretaceous period (~100m) onwards there haven't been many conditions for large phytoplankton deposits so the Earth isn't making much oil nowadays. -

Originally posted by 8stringflinG I meant for helium and other gasses.
There's a reason the Venus concept you linked to is ARCHIVED and NOT HAPPENING while NASA and SpaceX both currently have active plans to colonize Mars.
It's a concept program, it's in the name, the point of concept programs isn't to accomplish them, it's to flesh out what it would take to accomplish them.
It's literally easier to accomplish, and that's why the concept was drawn up in the first.ppace, it was concluded and archived ~8 months ago.
https://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/20160006329.pdfVenus as a stepping stone to Mars
• Orbital mechanics:
- Shorter missions (14 month total duration) with similar propulsion requirements
- Abort-to-Earth available anytime after Venus arrival
• Similar technologies are required and/or can be used: long-duration habitats,
aerobraking/aerocapture, carbon dioxide processing
• Serve as a test case for operations to/at/from another world
The reason why there is hype for Mars is because people really like touching down on shit. -

Originally posted by 8stringflinG And you expect balloons to withstand wind speeds of up to 700km/h, in storms that can last for days and circle the entire planet?
The space shuttles used to re-enter at 18000km/h, the wind speed itself won't do shit for a properly engineered shell. Obviously it won't just be a rubber balloon, for example rigid airships use metal structures to resist atmospheric pressure rather than just internal gas pressure.
Ultimately keeping it afloat would be simply a matter of buoyancy and scale. You could build a massive external shell out of steel if you wanted, you just need to add enough volume, which dirigibles are amazing at because you need to add proportionally smaller and smaller amounts of surface area per unit volume as you add more and more.
In terms of physics it's not all that much more challenging than a massive oil tanker. The logistics are the problem.Even if we could somehow keep these cities afloat they'd be dragged all over the planet
Drop anchors.and would make trips to and from essentially impossible to calculate with modern technology
In any scenario we are probably going to be using an orbital station as a waypoint anyway, even though the cities could be stationary.Mars is more feasible and that's why literally every expert in the field thinks your proposal is ridiculous.
No it won't and no they don't, you just pulled that out of your asshole.
https://sacd.larc.nasa.gov/smab/havoc/Venus will be a mining planet. Mark my words. I bet you 5 dolla. We'll be long dead by then so just have your ancestor send the XRP to my ancestor, thanks.
Venus won't be a mining planet any time in the foreseeable future because surface pressures and temperatures make it extremely difficult for machinery to survive, not to mention the extremely acidic atmosphere and acid rain at the surface. The reinforced probes the Soviets sent lasted ~2 hours before being crushed by sheer pressure. You could probably create more reinforced stuff that lasts longer (or withstands the pressure) at a smaller scale but nothing large scale will happen on the surface of Venus any time soon..
And Mercury is right next door. -

2019-09-25 at 5:37 PM UTC in Minecraft is getting biome updates that we vote onI think deeper oceans and higher mountains could be awesome. They should add restrictions on ladder placement (for example you have to prep the side of blocks to ladder them like you have to hoe the ground for seeds) and instead add rappelling lines and climbing gear that degrades and uses stamina. Rappelling lines would be awesome because right now you kinda have to use water to create a quick and easy "ladder".
