I guess you dont know history then....

We were mere moments from World War III in 1983, one russian man saved your ass.

The Bikini Atoll still has enough radiation that you really should not be there very long.

No but I wonder what kind of insects will emerge that have been gone for a very long time frozen as larve in the permafrost. We might get some very old bugs coming to life once again.

Marketing wont help. when 90% of the population are functional morons when it comes to science you cant say anything to convince people that just can not understand why warmer planet means more dramatic cold during the winter.

How about we stop at the top of the kelvin scale then?

So we can stop at 2000 degrees?

I have a 6 month old Bluray player and it's not connected to ethernet in any way. not even wireless.

the "smart" functions of a bluray player are a sad, sad joke compared to a Roku 3. Why would someone intentionally use the horrible half assed crap internet capabilities on a bluray player?

I have it to play the random Disc I may or may not get, a huge amount of video is not available online so I have to get it on a spinning piece of plastic.

Most bluray players run linux and never get updates. the OPPO Bluray player has an rs232 port on back that if you power cycle it and are fast enough, you can get a shell login as root.

NEC TV sets are the same way.

The government is acting with sense and doing so in a honest way that fair to citizens.

This is not right, so I firmly believe that the world is coming to an end.

Sounds bad for rich people with beach houses. Won't somebody think of the rich people with beach houses?!!

Many things may be possible at some time in the future. But I was responding to a post that specifically mentioned "50 years from now".

Exaggerating climate change to alarm people isn't working. Stop doing it. If you want people to take the threat seriously, be honest.

If you just want to troll people, divide people, and score petty political points for your side until the next issue gives you a new opportunity, then keep it up.

Do you think they're panicking there? Or do you think they know how to live comfortably on land that's below sea level?

Sea levels rise about 2-3mm per year when you're not using your imagination.

What do you mean "what about" them? If you have a point, what's your point? If you have a question, articulate it.

Your idea that most of the world's population leads backward, benighted lives is about 20 years out of date. Prosperity is widespread.

It's not going to be too bad. Think about it. We all have handheld computers that are continuously connected to essentially all the world's information. We have the ability to shape our world as never before in history. People move across and between continents routinely. The advantages of modern life make otherwise catastrophic problems into mere inconveniences.

And that's now. This article wants you to worry about hundreds of years in the future. We can expect technological progress to continue to improve things for us unless some sort of government totalitarianism puts an end to it.
