Warefare has always been largely economic. It's what you are fighting for, it's how you win. See Sun Tzus Art of War for an early example of military focus. Because of the well known destructive nature of war; more wars have been

I would not be supprised if Teresa May was placed in power with the express goal of fumbling the exit.

It's a two way street. I had to leave the US as my US tax bill on foreign income exceeded my US income. I would have prefered to stay but I draw the line at paying to work.

Liberals are not very libertarian; especially under Malcolm Turnbull. There is a small strand of libertarianism and that's the Liberal Democratic Party. Australia has an unsustainable property bubble that has made a large chunk of the

Newtons dabbling in Alchemy made him very sick, so there was definitely a risk there. He also invested and lost his life savings in a speculative stock bubble. The bet that really paid off financially was his occult connections that got hi

The reduction in productivity is not a bug, it's a feature. Your boss spends a lot of time in meeting justifying why he needs a bigger headcount. Having more productive employees makes his job much harder. Colloquially it's called

I have clearly done none of what you accuse me of. I have never said, or even implied, that Russia is an innocent party. Nor have I suggested that US blunders excuse Russian war crimes. I consider Russia to be an oppressive, dysfunctional,

Ha ha ha ha, perhaps I have better things to do than provide you with particulars. Especially when my assertions are easily searchable. I'm guessing you're a member of the spoon fed generation. I comment on topics that interest me

Would you like me to google it for you? The idea that British pre WWII history is irrelevant betrays your ignorance. Considering that Britain is the most recent world power to collapse, there is much that can be learned from them. Also cons

Revolutions are reasonably predictable, after all, history rhymes. From my point of view I would agree that Libya was better off with Gaddafi. Gaddafi was negotiating a surrender with free elections but Hillary Clinton blocked it because sh

Does covertly overthrowing a democratically elected government, installing a dictator only to later invade count as two democracies going to war? Otherwise it sounds like a very big loophole and one the US uses all of the time.

America intentionally exported the War on Drugs. It would sanction and threaten to invade those who didn't want to join. Which is the height of hypocrisy given the CIAs involvement in facilitating the drug trade. A good example is what

I wouldn't hold my breath. Maybe for causal reading but not for day in day out 8 hours a day. It's also solving the wrong problem when it comes to immersion. I fly FPV which is a fuzzy intermittent analog 640x480 screen and it

Sadly VR is useless for reading :( I wish it wasn't so. You're much better off with a high resolution screen with the ability to zoom in and out between landmarks. Maybe a head tracker to make navigation more intuitive.

I'd like to host this terminal in a 3D environment. Any plans to enable this? Perhaps with a signed distance field texture. I'm building a 3D game in Rust and would like to be able to drop this in.

Investors know this and won't invest. At least as won't invest at as high of a valuation. My preference is bootstrap, that way I can make my own mistakes and not someone elses, which is what happens when investors meddle.

You can't read in VR for very long and it's probably the number one thing you do with your screen.

More high paying American jobs going overseas :( In a serious note; I'm from a country where reputation is king and a handshake seals a deal so I was not used to the shadyness I experienced living in the US. Homeless people with made u
