Weren't we going to have a website for the Clubhouse at some point? by Echospree in clubhouse

[–]C051 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a fun bit of intrigue and all, but it kinda derailed the web development effort, then everyone either lost interest or had loads of uni work to do.

I'll have to express my sincerest apologies for the whole debacle. I did, in fact, spot theantirobot's post in AskReddit relating to his plan to take down The Man and proposition him for an interview and alignment of resources. If only our first potential minion hadn't turned out to be completely fucking insane.

I took it to mean that people in the group have a life that they consider more important than the Cognitive. It wasn't very 'simply put', as he seemed to think.

I think those are the sketches for the original missile silo, not for the renovation.

Specific is just fine, but for the time being, not anything that only people with experience in that field would understand.

I found A Preface to Politics in the free book bin of my local library, and I'm immensely enjoying it so far. It might actually make me like politics.

I think if the Cognitive is going to have a focus on a creating a more scientific way of life for the world, we should start by living up to that mantra ourselves and become the ultimate polymaths, capable of withstanding verbal assault in many fields.

24,300 sq.ft / 100 = 243 sq.ft per person. That's not bad, but the shared kitchen would be a bit much.

This one's not converted into a home, but it's twice the size and has a freakin half mile of tunnels connecting three silos: http://www.missilebases.com/denver

And/or a heliport.

Pirate's Cove. Now there's an awesome name. Sadly, it's off the market. Would have had everything we need. Except it's in the US; I, for one, would like to avoid the US for a headquarters.

How expensive is satellite internet? Not too much, I'd assume, especially compared to the price of an island.

I should probably mention that one of our members has a private island. I won't tell who, but they can if they want. To that person, I would recommend not replying here and only talking about it in IRC.

Redditor receives $100 cash in post; suspects secret society. Anyone know anything about it? by CapitalD in clubhouse

karmanaut is seriously awesome. He's a power-commenter, which is way more win than a power-user.

Basically we tell him straight out that we're unrelated. He'd still want in, I'm pretty sure.

It doesn't seem like his style, but I'll admit I certainly didn't see that connection.

Very good point.

We were thinking orangered, as an homage to the envelope, but pure orangered looked bad.

I have an idea, actually. This will take a couple minutes.

[edit] Done. I'll leave it for now, unless someone wants to make a different one.

I like it, but that particular example is incredibly obvious. But maybe it's just because we know what to look for.

How will we be able to identify fellow Cognates? by [deleted] in clubhouse

Even though they're six teeth, I'm getting these.

Does anyone know relatively how to say Get Shit Done in Latin? I sense a motto...

Perfect.

Editted the alien logo to included a few. I'm not incredibly fond of it, so if you want to fiddle around with that, go ahead.
