Those are some sweet home made racks! Bit of a fire hazard, but even still :-)

Of course, nothing here has anything to do with whether Kurzweil is right or wrong. It's just takes issue with the timescales.

This theory is brilliant. It explains perfectly why nerds and the general public tend to grate on each other's nerves.

Wow, second energy-from-nothing page I've stumbled on today. Did someone repeal the laws of thermodynamics while I was sleeping?

I'm not sure that World of Warcraft is on the same level as the atom bomb, but it's an amusing read.

They designers didn't put enough thought into the economic system. People who got in early grabbed up all the best real-esate and resources, and now they're just camped there farming all the best stuff, while the rest of us have to grind low-level jobs just to get by.

Other than that, my biggest gripe is the lack of plot. There is no story line, no quests, and most of the random "world events" are just nuicances. What genius thought huricanes, terrorist, and global warming would be fun?

Plus, what's with the language-barrier system? I mean give me a break. It's bad enough they allow player-killing, but we can't even communicate with guys in the other factions?

Oh, and the random spawn system sucks. I lucked out and drew Canada for my character, but if you get started in sub-saharan africa you're basically screwed.

According to this clock, we have 430 years of oil left to pump. I call bullshit. That's nearly an order of magnitiude outside of even the optimistic estimates.

Pure genius... but then, what would I know, I'm just a monkey.
