What's so bad about The Friends' List?
 I hear it's a little of this.  And this.

I've had ice in milk before. It is an odd thing.
Actually, the only time where ice and milk go together is when you're mixing it with chocolates and fruit catalysts. That or espresso and other stuff.

In most regards, the universe itself is like a really smooth running clock. In other words I wouldn't fix what ain't broke. However, what I would do, is create a bubble.
Maybe dump said bubble on top of one of those many warring countries at the moment. And inside the bubble, would be the workings of whatever I can dream up. And I can dream up a lot. I'd make it an amusement park of sorts. Probably be funny too. Drop it on the sites of the East's major conflicts, or what's happening in Africa right now, or the whole shiggy with Russia. And watch the people inside it as they attempt to make sense of things.

Sociopaths United and Sapphire were both shit.
Lurulu and Jacaltastic were both god-tier.
Secular Sevens was the worst.
Never knew much about Sapphire. What made them so bad supposedly?

On records, I'm unemployed. I work mainly at my family owned restaurant, take jobs from my sister to give her a hand with things, and take up work from local contractors and miscellaneous odd jobs around the area. I don't really have one official job.

Haha, jokes on those folks, I signed up for the the friends list the day I was going to get shut out of my account. I got in too. And my legacy will be one of doing absolutely nothing.

Sandtrap, you're implying that cashiers give enough of a shit about that trash tier job to give a fuck.
I've been in the cashier shoes, I can assure you that they don't really give a rats ass about how you prefer to have your change given to you.
I work in a resturant for about 16 hours a day compatriot. IT'S THE SMALL FUCKING THINGS THAT COUNT.

You know what I hate? There's two ways of giving someone money. And without fail, every cashier I've ever seen does it the wrong way. Every cashier gives you your change back like so. Dollar bill, money over top.
NO. FUCKING NO.
You do no put money overtop of the dollar bill. Have you ever tried to fold the dollar bill up nicely to cram into your pocket with the change overtop? It slips and slides all over the fucking place and half the time you lose it or drop it trying to fit it into your pocket or wallet.
REMEMBER PEOPLE, IT'S CHANGE IN THE PALM OF THE HAND FIRST, THEN DOLLAR BILL.

Business is simple. You take the average price that everybody else charges, and you slash it. Not by much, but enough to sway people to go after you instead because things cost less. Better yet, if you could improve quality while still managing to charge a low price, you'd have money coming in over your head faster than the expenses to maintain everything.
So the real question is, what do all the other working gals charge around here?

In the next hundred years the majority of countries are going to be having tough times. Environmental changes aside, if you take a look at the conflicts brewing across every corner of the planet at the present time, you can just see all the wars waiting to start up. Eventually, one of them will really light up. With environmental pressure bearing down on things along with the many tensions around, eventually, things will snap.
And if anything really damn big hits america, shit is going to go down, BIG TIME. We're talking mass exodus, land and water wars, total collapse of major population centers. With the current state of the world now, the US, and by extension a lot of the world governments, in 100 years will be standing in flimsy fucking stilts if they get that far.

The term zombie can cover a very broad area in what it means. In the sense that a living organism that is killed and is restarted and comes back? No, I don't think so. However, the closest I could see is one of those smaller viruses and infections that target insects making the jump to humans. The sole purpose of the infection is to keep spreading itself, so my guess is either the Human host would become hostile if it's nervous system was highjacked, or they would become walking carriers.
Hostility means that an organism is more likely to notice another acting out of the ordinary, so having hoards of infected people acting like they have rabies and are on heavy drug induced cannibalism is the least likely scenario. The most effective way for the parasite to spread itself would be to do so passively. And people, in their very nature, do this. In all likelyhood, the parasite or virus would highjack the hosts system and force them into populated areas, They'd probably develop sores, something that could break, blister, and spread blood or fluids infected with the parasite to the surrounding area.
So, I think in reality, the closest we could ever have a zombie would be one of those slow walkers as portrayed in the old movies. Then again, if we go back to what I said, the general term "Zombie" encompasses a lot of things. And in that regard, another scenario might be something along the lines of 28 days later.
In both cases, the host is not killed upon infection, but their system is highjacked and in all likelyhood their higher mental functions cease.
Realistically, that's the closest we could come. There is no natural occurring event that causes a dead life form to come back to life and operate in any sufficient capacity past it's deterioration of the brain or body.
The general rule is, if it's not found naturally, it is either impossible to create or very, very hard to. There's plenty of diseases that override brain functions and body functions, but nothing that revives and keeps things going.

I can't say that it's been smooth sailing. This year is like walking on a tight rope. But so far I've managed to stay upright for things. It's sure as hell no picnic, but I'm not complaining. Things could always be worse.

Until yesterday, everyone in the international community was laughing at this engine and its inventor, Roger Sawyer. It's called the EmDrive and everyone said it was impossible because it went against the laws of physics. But the fact is that the quantum vacuum plasma thruster works in the lab and scientists can't explain why.
Basically it gives us the ability to have fuel-less engines in space, we would no longer be limited by fuel limitations in terms of space travel. We could keep them on and keep going faster and faster, a trip to mars could take a week instead of 6 months.
NASA doesnt know why it works, its troll science, but they were able to replicate it like the Chinese did. Its reality but we dont know why.

Is there a limit on the exponential increase to propulsion over time? Other than the speed of light that is.
The limit is the amount of energy you use to increase the thrust force. As far as I know, when something is flying through space, it doesn't just simply speed up out of the blue. Over time, I believe there is a gradual increase, but this is extremely slow. In order to go faster, an object needs more of an opposing force to push it along. But as long as an object keeps going without being disturbed, it will keep going.
So, really, we're still at the same level here. In order to make a satellite go any faster with this engine, assuming it works, you'd need a power plant on board. And if there's a power plant, there's a limit to how much electricity it can generate, effectively capping the speed of the satellite.
Of course, this could be overcome by something else. Giving the satellite an enormous burst of power at launch. And the only way to do that would be to hook it up to a space elevator and launch it from the very top, so that you wouldn't have to fight gravity so hard and the boost from having all the power dumped into the engine wouldn't be wasted.
I believe this was done on the Simpsons, I'm down for operation elevator music.
Having an orbital elevator is the only way to go if we're to ever achieve anything space wise. The cost of sending something up through the atmosphere in rockets is too high, and unclean. Instead, you build an elevator where the launches can be done in low gravity conditions.

I want this to be on Kickstarter so it gets attention, then bought by something larger so it actually gets done.
Needs to be an animated series. Done in this style. It's too perfect.

One step closer to making contact and inevitably tapping that hot alien ass.
Or an overzealous alien alliance comes to tap our asses.
Give or take, as long as it's pretty, you can bet your ass somebody's gun git fucked silly.

Our industry, as it stands today, aren't fans of game changers. They're comfortable currently as is. This is a thrust engine. That means it can be applied to to more than just satellites. Missiles, aircraft, maybe even ground transport. And it's cheap, light weight, and uses NO fuel other than electricity.
Come on, don't tell me you don't see why a big multinational company would want something like that buried or restricted. The fuel business is incredibly lucrative, and if that engine was ever streamlined, it could put a big damn dent in their profits or even outright kill them. If the engine ever gets off the ground, chances are one of the big corporations out there will purchase it. But they won't use it right away. They'll keep it in the backroom until they need it. So long as there is fuel to be sold, they'll sell it.
The number one rule any corporation in a capitalist system lives by is money. Make money, make more money, and spend as little as possible. They won't introduce the engine because it's practical or benificial. They'll introduce it when their current big well dries up, and it's time to move on.
Cheap and lightweight? According to whom? Powerful magnetic fields and superheated plasma don't sound cheap to me.
And no, I don't think corporations would try and bury it. The design is only owned by governments and educational institutions, no one has the ability to hide it. I'm sure there will be corporations who will pick up on the technology, and there will be corporations who cannot adapt who will lose profits. If it is economical, it's not going to be buried.
From the article itself. "Shawyer's engine is extremely light and simple." They wouldn't drop that line in the article for no reason. Simplicity implies that by current standards, the concept of the engine is simple to understand, and therefore simple to reproduce. Hell, you can create plasma in your microwave by microwaving fire. Don't do that though. And don't give me that it's economical stuff either. The fuel economy for a lot of vehicles today is rather poor. Big companies don't care if it's economical, they care about how much money they can generate. And poor economical vehicles is one avenue of income. And it's like a big board game to them. If and when that engine gets off the ground, it won't be released until everybody is good and ready. It won't ever be buried completely, but it'll be kept in a waiting line until they can make the maximum amount of profit while losing as little as possible.

Neat
a bit more than neat lol...... am I the only one excited??
Our current system doesn't like game changers, especially ones that are cheap, and can potentially provide the world with a relatively easy to manufacture propulsion system that could be implemented in any manner of craft.
So, assuming it gets past the scientists, it's going to get run into the ground by corporations and governments and buried, OR, kept exclusively to one specific branch while everybody else doesn't get access.
What are you on about?
