I've been saying that Pokemon Go is going to go the same way as the Kinect and the Wii. Fun for the novelty, but beyond that the fundamentals are very bad. Therefore, once the novelty starts to wear off....

You're paying for a super ninja ultra special internet connection as well? Yikes. Interesting concept though. So your strategy for scaling up is building a data center then?

Follow up to the above comment. After making this comment two users (dogma1138 and ommunist) showed up that reinforce my point. On one side, according to dogma1138 (it appears from his comments) that any change to the environment is inheren

The question of "are there any circumstances under which ..." is dichotomy. The circumstances either can conceivably exist, or it cannot. And I still haven't gotten an answer from you, so I guess there's no point continu

For humans. So you do agree that some conditions of the environment will have negative consequences for humans, or don't you?

Well, you SHOULD understand. I'm speaking in term of "loss of lives over the long run". Your words. More "loss of lives over the long run" is the bad alternative, when an alternative exists of less "loss of liv

> The destruction of natural habitats can also have a negative effect on human lives Simple question: do you concede that in some cases keeping the natural habitats as they are might be worse than changing them, in terms of loss of life

So you do agree that some conditions of the environment will have negative consequences, or don't you? You rhetoric style makes it really difficult to have a rational conversation with you.

> why would you think just stripping and entire habitat Again, you completely misunderstood my position. I'm not making a comment on deserts, or this deserts specifically. I'm making the following comment: "it seems to me

The dichotomy that I'm pointing out is not that people are "all for deserts" vs "all against deserts", you misunderstood my position. I'm pointing out a false dichotomy which is "all for environmental pres

How can you say there is no environmental concern? If my environment is unlivable (for example because I can't find water, or air etc), isn't that a concern? Look at Beijing and its atrocious air polution, of Flint and its water p

Ok, so your argument is to object to my claim that things other than humans can have an impact that leads to loss of lives? I ask this because of your final comment that "bears and trees don't do that".

I think your arguments against desertification have some merit. But then what's the argument pro desertification (from people who want to keep deserts desert)? Shouldn't you want to NOT preserve deserts, and instead turn them into

But much like you say "humans have an impact on what's around them, causing it to change, and eventually that could cause loss of lives", you can also say that for anything at all, can't you? Replace humans with X = bear

I have two issues with your comment: A) You provide no evidence for your major claim (that the people fighting change are doing it for selfish motivations). Neither in general, nor in the case of this specific desert. B) Even if the _motiva

I see in some places people are trying to stop deserts from turning into something else and in other places people are trying to stop something else from turning into deserts. Are we always trying to stop things from changing, and a posteri

Wikileak's philosophy is not that all information should be public. Assange has been explicitely asked about this. The real idea is simpler, that you should know who you're voting for.

Regarding your second paragraph, awareness amongst the US population should be risen about that. For the past 3 or so years Russia has been getting more and more nervous about the US defence shield. Its argument is that the US can use it fo
