What are you doing "gaming" in the living room? Dude, you are now MARRIED. Turn the spare bedroom into your "man cave". The living room is your wife's domain.

Seperating rooms into "domains" is just the first step in alienating your significant other and start hating eachother, have fun with that..

Of course if Einstein's theories are correct then any such cheating mechanism would inherently double as a time machine with rather serious implications to our concept of causality.

Well yes and now, if you travel above the speed of light, by "folding" space/time. You make a time machine, although you are in effect only traveling forwards and a "reasonable speed", you are to outside observers, actually traveling through time... It's not like it's an albecurrie drive powering the TARDIS :P

How does a 500 year data set apply to a 4.5 billion year old planet?

Anthropogenic warming isn't dangerous to the planet, it's dangerous to us. The timeline of the planet is irrelevant.

And by analyzing more of earths timeline, we might discover more facts that could reduce the risk to humanity. But no, if they discover something that might counter current scientific beliefs, they might loose funding or even their jobs...

Comment "free" to play (Score 1) 181

As long as the "free" part stands, it usually gets a "fair shake".

But games that force you to pay to progress, wont be treated nicely. Some games(like NFSWorld), have a free to play model, but restrict the upper levels of the game, to only paying customers. And unless you provide a way for people to grind through boredom to reach the same spot for free. Your game will probably be panned.
