This is literally one of the hardest choices I could ever make in life. I’m not even joking…

The quake is pretty scary. That’s not big enough to cause entire buildings to fall into a massive crack in the ground. But it’s still scary.

Especially when somebody you know is visiting San Fran. :'u

Always the correct answer.

> This is literally one of the hardest choices I could ever make in life. I’m not even joking…

Lol, it reminded me of that commercial. There both good, but Snickers is the best, imo.

Just seen it on bbc news bloody good actor loved his films.

> You guys hear about the DDoS attacks on PSN and XBL? Well now the group claiming responsibility have issued bomb threats.

& you thought DDoSing to cheat in Halo was bad…

People were getting worked up over a potential security breach, but thankfully, that’s not what a DDoS attack is, it just denies use of the service. A pain? Yes. Completely threatening? Absolutely not.
& the bomb-threat is just going too damn far. Not only were the claims of a bomb attack void, but they caused the flight to be re-directed, well at first at least.

Reading about Tesla makes me sad…the man was not only born in a time that limited his amazing ideas, his ideas were pushed out of the way for money…

Literally the man did so much yet is not talked about as much as he should be.

It makes me upset because even if you spend your whole life trying to do good you are not always assured the credit you deserve.

All my this ^
The amount of ideas that Tesla brought to the world is astounding. If you’ve never read about him, have a browse through this. I’ll need to head back to New York some time and see the Museum :slight_smile:

Edison…this…that is my issue with Tesla’s story…

I wish I had a Ghost (destiny)…he of all people deserves another go at it all.

I’d like a Ghost as well, because who doesn’t like to listen to a techy version of Peter Dinklage? But seriously, I quite like Ghost, mainly his design. Bungie have always been quite good at making constructs look robotic.

I was saying that because the ghost can revive long dead people and Tesla deserves another go.

But indeed to all of that about the ghost.

P.S The ghost is the only thing in Destiny that I have 0 complaints about.

Well, this is embarrassing.

Nah, your fine ^.~

Can you imagine what Tesla could do in this time?!

Can you imagine where we would be if Edison yoinked off?!

Can you imagine what could have been if people took notice?!

On a diff note: Ugh, people who measure success by wealth piss me off. I do not understand why people care about money so much, I used to be like that…when I was yoinking 10.

Free energy for everyone \o/
I haven’t read up on it much lately, but I wonder what’s stopping us (besides money hungry corporations) from setting up his machine…

> Free energy for everyone \o/
> I haven’t read up on it much lately, but I wonder what’s stopping us (besides money hungry corporations) from setting up his machine…

That is indeed what is stopping us(from what I know). Yoinking money is all people care about.

I hate money, I really do. I’d love a world where money just didn’t exist, though I guess we’re already heading there as it’s all basically 1’s and 0’s now.

Money is simply an object given value so it can be used for trading, if we didn’t have money we would trade with something else.

> Money is simply an object given value so it can be used for trading, if we didn’t have money we would trade with something else.

That is exactly what I speak of, we put too much value in objects.

I’ve been reading on paradoxes lately, here’s one for you.

Can ‘‘God’’ create a rock that he can’t lift?

If God can create a rock that He cannot lift, then God is not omnipotent. If God cannot create a rock so heavy that He cannot lift it, then God is not omnipotent. According to this argument, omnipotence is self-contradictory. Therefore, God cannot be omnipotent.

> That is exactly what I speak of, we put too much value in objects.

Perhaps, but we put value in them to gain a better life from them, the more money you have the more you can spend it on, of course money is not the only thing to judge how good your life is but it’s one of them.

> Money is simply an object given value so it can be used for trading, if we didn’t have money we would trade with something else.

Very true, it is our current evolution of trading. I’ve tried very hard to imagine a world where money didn’t exist, but it always ends up back at money. Greed consumes people, I hope we can evolve past this.
Urgh, you can tell it’s Monday. Sorry WayPoint, I’ll try and bee a bit cheerier. Here is a picture of a happy cat

Money is not required to have a good or happy life
