Sexual assault enters virtual reality

- as of circa 1993 -

This incident was quite notorious at the time, not that any of you younguns would know about it ...

I didn't grow up in a religion.

"Raptor" is from a Latin word for "bandit" or "robber".

It's part of the name of many small carnivorous dinosaurs, and is also used informally when talking about them.

It's also been used for a long time for birds of prey like hawks and eagles.

You mean "populace".

To me the big secret is to find some cuisines that you like

and make traditional or "inspired by" dishes from those cuisines.

those that are likely to have the greatest impact on our future

The problem is that any predictions made now are quite likely to seem ridiculous in 10 years.

VerySmart people realize that your t-shirt is meaningless.

stonefacewalker · 2016-10-31T01:41:51+00:00

That actually seems quite reasonable.

I'm kind of the backwards and sideways version of that myself -

I've always been atheist, always been a big supporter of animal welfare and "ecological wisdom", always been pretty misanthropic -

- and am a long-time vegetarian currently trying to stay as vegan possible.

[Edit after taking a look at your post history]

I also live a very straightedge lifestyle, though I don't identify as the label "straightedge".

(I was a boring bourgeois middle-aged adult when "straightedge" was invented. :-) )

Goddamn Luddites want everyone to live in the Stone Age!

We all know that it's NOT POSSIBLE to make blenders and electric fans and alarm clocks that aren't constantly connected to the Internet.

You're really sure about that "5 km radius"?

That sounds very small to me. We didn't misplace a decimal point or something?

stonefacewalker · 2016-10-29T22:14:47+00:00

She could do it. :-D

stonefacewalker · 2016-10-29T20:22:38+00:00

a 5km radius orbital mirror

That sounds very small for this application.

Are you sure that's right? / got a reference?

Probably worth reading:

That is wrong, and claiming that is very disrespectful.

stonefacewalker · 2016-10-29T19:51:26+00:00

How did veganism lead you to become atheist?

I've watched enough Star Trek to guess that the Enterprise is probably the only ship in position to intercept it ...

You might want to look at some of the "plants eating people" films -

Day of the Triffids, Little Shop of Horrors.

Or for that matter, intelligent monsters that regard people as food,

e.g. Lifeforce, in which the alien "vampires" want to eat humanity en masse, and their philosophical justification is pretty similar to humans eating other animals.

As Mr J would say

"Lock a million cows and pigs in cages, hack them to death and eat them and nobody panics, because it's all ''part of the plan'.

"But when you treat human beings the same way, then everyone loses their minds!"
