This assumes a sufficiently advanced civilization could survive itself for a sufficient span...I don't see how its realistic to expect [human] survival into the "millions of years" range.
Crocodiles on the other hand - those bastards are believed to be around 200 million years old...If crocs could somehow work space travel into their lifestyle, this could lead to something...
I'm reading a really good book now called Footfall by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. It's a story about an alien race invading Earth, except the aliens hadn't developed their technology on their own. They learnt everything that they know from these stone tablets that another intelligent race, long since extinct, had left on their planet.
What if we end up being that exinct race? (which seems quite possible, given what we are doing to the environment) The dinosaurs left behind their dead bodies which we used for energy (fossil fuels). Maybe we will leave behind our knowledge which sentient crocodiles will use to colonize the galaxy?
The only reason he was "unbeatable" was because he built a character optimized to exploit a cheap trick that didn't rely on his own strength.
Sounds like the fault lies with the game designers who allowed for such a trick to exist in the first place--not with Myers.
If it was so unfair, then the designers should have nerfed the teleport skill or something.
Anyway there is a rearrangement of the pharynx/larynx at the venerable age of 1/2 years old which is needed to be able to physically speak. Without it you can't.
They should try teaching her to use one of those speaking machines that Steven Hawking uses. Because of her underdeveloped brain, teaching her to read/write doesn't seem possible, but maybe in a number of years it will be. It's possible her brain development just hasn't started yet, since the growth of different parts of her body are out of sync.
A coalition of webcasters have worked out a deal with the recording industry that could temporarily stave off a portion of crippling net radio royalties set to take effect Sunday, according to people familiar with the negotiations. [...] For now, the parties involved in what's described as ongoing negotiations have agreed to waive at least temporarily the minimum charge of $6,000 per channel required under a scheme created by the Copyright Royalty Board, or CRB. The deal, brokered late Thursday, is not final and could change. One person involved in the talks described the situation as a reprieve, and said that "internet radio won't be saved until a workable royalty rate is set."
The major difference between bonds and bond traders is that the bonds will eventually mature.
