I never said it was easy, I said it was process was simple and straightforward. Simple and easy are not always the same thing.

Are you kidding? One of the biggest and first steps in terraforming Mars is to introduce massive amounts of carbon and greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere to warm it up on the global scale. We are experts in that field because we are doing it to our own planet at an alarming rate.

Since we know that there is water on Mars, everything else is duck soup. Transplanting plants, especially algae, ferns, trees can turn massive amounts of carbon dioxide and water into oxygen on the long term. It is a fairly simple and straightforward process but it takes a long time.

Or the Love Shack located smack-dab in your own Private Idaho. That is where I keep my Rock Lobster.

The last few decades have shown that the Republican Party is dominated by the craziest person with the loudest voice. Whereas elections were won by who could prostitute themselves to the richest sugardaddy. Now we have a loud, insane guy who is his own sugardaddy.

Then again, I don't truly believe that Trump is as popular as he appears. It is just that the Media loves a side-show. Half just want the comedy, half are just filling time with his antics. Donald Trump is a brand and he really knows how to market himself. They are playing right into his strategy.

Except it wasn't. It exploded on a Starship in the middle of a nebula and created a planet which Spock's body landed on, resurrecting him.

It really is a matter of perspective. If I say China, you probably say Manufacturing, maybe electronics. Middle East, probably oil. Are the economies of those areas more nuanced than that, hell yes. Now think about it on a galactic scale. What is the one or two word summation for the economy for, say, Vulcan. Probably Science. I am sure Vulcans have many industries with imports, exports, defense, manufacturing, pop culture, poetry, etc. But what is most prominent about their culture? Pointy-eared scientists who are logical to a fault.

Even then, I can also see that if there is a world with an indigenous and very valuable resource, that that industry could easily take over to become the dominant economy of an entire planet (main industry plus smaller economies supporting that industry). Especially if it was colonized specifically to mine this resource. We can see this happening in here (as mentioned by the GPP).

Thunderbird. Just because the project will be discontinued by Mozilla, doesn't mean they uninstall it from your computer. You can keep using it for as long as you want to. Hell, I still know people who religiously use VB6 and Office 2000 on their production machines because "why fix what ain't broken." Now, after a few years when it starts feeling old, then ask the question. But by then, I'm sure the source code will have been forked to a new project or two or a new competitor will emerge.

This phenomenon has a name: The Ballmer Peak

FTFY.

I agree, the problem wasn't so much Hayden as it was Lucas' poor writing and lack of direction. The fact that the sets were just giant blue screens didn't help. In the prequels, Ewan McGreggor, Liam Neeson, Natalie Portman, and Samuel L Muthafucking Jackson are all giving lackluster performances. If Sam Jackson comes off as wooden, what chance does a novice like Hayden Christensen stand?

I really don't care for the guy, and I couldn't stand the character of Anakin but I think he just gets too much of the blame for the prequels.

There is still a belief that Kylo Ren may be Jar-Jar. Just look at the mask. Only time will tell.

1) Matter of Opinion. Sony has some damn good exclusives as well (e.g. Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, Infamous, Gran Turismo, etc.) It all depends on where your tastes lie.

2, 3) Kinect is pretty much dead at this point. Since it is now an optional $100 addon, few people are buying it and no one is making games for it anymore. Since a good portion of the media center stuff requires Kinect (such as changing channels on the cable box) a good portion of the media center integration is useless as well.

4) Evil multinational corporation currently HQ'ed in US vs Evil multinational corporation currently HQ'ed in Japan.

On one hand, I totally agree. The fact that seasons seem to be between 6 and 12 episodes these days with some shows going as low 3 episodes, it just seems to be too little content. However, looking back at some of my favorite old shows, I realize just how much is pointless filler. So on the other hand I prefer quality over quantity.

Thinking about it, I would probably prefer 12 really solid episodes than 30 episodes of much more varying quality, half of which are just filler.

As a fan of the House of Cards remake, I disagree. As long as they continue to make quality shows, I wish them the best. Much better than the vast majority of trash that constitutes TV today.

I want quality content and support any and all who care to make it.

They said the same about Battlestar Galactica. While I hate the BSG remake as a remake, it was a good series in-and-of-itself. If it is done with care and treats the premise with dignity, it has the potential to be a good series. It doesn't need to be a "gritty reboot", it just needs to take itself seriously.

That was the major problem with the original series, and a good portion of other series from the era, it was just too campy for it's own good.

I hated that movie, I am so glad that Bill Mumy and Jonathan Harris wanted nothing to do with it. The only bright spot was that they brought back Dick Tufeld to voice the robot. Well, that and the skin-tight uniforms on Mimi Rogers and Heather Graham.
