What if we added some kind of artificial spontaneous transmutation to housing? Maybe (this is really dumb but bear with me) every year 200 randomly chosen houses become the property of whoever is living in them at a random moment. What woul

Did they change how the census worked? Is any bureaucracy required to claim that you're in a building? Do census forms get forwarded to ICE?

AFAIK it's an autistic person thing (correlating with hackers (for obvious reasons)) to go on little thought tangents (like this one) all the time and parentheses are how you express that in text (much easier than writing prose (effect

So Neanderthals had copyright law and if they didn't, their society would have fallen apart? Is that why it did fall apart?

Does stapling it to your neighbours' fence lines and painting it like the wood count as creative? I wonder if you can couple to your local distribution grid, and not get arrested.

A 500kW LF amplifier? Things do have to be designed to their individual requirements, you can't just buy a car stereo amp and turn it up to 1000.

It's like the moon rocket. At any time we could have restarted that program from scratch and run it again, but what would the point be? We don't have the direct ability to make one but we have the ability to gain the ability to ma

I thought the license fee was a tax. You have to pay it, except in extremely specific scenarios that are basically just the bureaucracy's way of saying it's technically optional even though it isn't. AFAIK you have to own no

These aren't just any vacuum tubes. They are each the size of a small fridge, and extremely specialized for use in radio broadcasting.

Except nobody has a radio any more, certainly not one that receives LF. People have cellphones, and cellphones have a mandatory feature that lets the government display a message on everyone's screen, usually accompanied by loud and sc
