I know about the oceans thing. But I mean the exploration that is more likely to provide an immediate benerfit- more living space, shit to dig out of the ground and so forth. Because unless we actually have a rapture hidden away somewhere in the bermuda triangle, I don't see the immediate benefit of exploring deeper and deeper into the oceans when we have a very good understanding of the way the Earth works and that technology (Which isn't all too different) could be used to start sending people into space.
-Gas Hydrates
-Rare Earth Metals
-Black Smokers that have unique life on every single one (and deposit a shit-tonne of minerals)
These are three immediate benefits. These would solve our future energy crisis, our reliance on China for most REM's (used in practically anything and everything technological), and you get to study an ecology that is literally found no where else, even on other similar structures. Saying it has "no immediate benefit" is almost insulting, especially when you consider at currently, we can do equally as "little" with space exploration at the moment. (Don't get me wrong, space exploration is a passion of mine, but we've missed tonnes on the ocean and it's easier to get to and doesn't have as much requirements on equipment and crew to do.)
You could say the same about all three for space. If we get to the point where we can at least have automated drones working their way through the asteroid belt, we will not need to dig any terrestrial minerals up again. If scouring the oceans for resources was so easy, we would be doing it already. The fact that our space exploration is much more advanced than our ocean exploration says something, to me at least.
the advancements needed are similar although resource management would be far simpler in the ocean, space is just more interesting.

He still is.
He kinda does look like Obama in the face.
Everyone's face when Obama is just a midget in a mechanical suit. . .

Doesn't this break that whole impersonation rule?
Oh wait mods don't like Elegiac so I doubt it does.
Speak for your(former)self, I quite like elegiac.
So explain how this is not impersonation?
Because it's clearly not elegiac, impersonation is where you pretend to be the user in question.
This is a parody alt, which isn't technically against the rules.
But the account is clearly created for the purpose of harassing another user.
And you're pulling this from where? They've never even talked to each other and Elegiac hasn't said a word about it so far.
Elegiac doesn't like being called a dingo
He said he doesn't care about being called a dingo.
So I can go make an account called Lord Faggot right now, right?
go for it!

I could, but I'm having an existential crisis.
just know that you're going to be ugly when you're older anyway, may as well kill yourself now
Goddamn, it's like you're looking for a ban.
Let me help you on your way.
4 more days and college starts back up
I'll be loaded so I doubt I'll be able to post as much as I was able to last semester.
what are your classes?
boring gen eds, calc, and intro to engineering 2
what's intro to engineering entail? I assume its something similar to techniques in physics. I'm working on the general physics half of my dual degree and am just now taking my first engineering class this semester.

I feel kinda dumb for asking this... but I'm actually clueless.
The inflation on these interest rates, how can that relate to the inflation of produce or is it entirely unrelated?
I'm pretty dumd when it comes to economics so you're not alone.

What did you think of the SpaceX barge landing attempt?
Was that the one today where the thing fucking exploded?
Yep. Although the entire thing was a huge success, apart from the rapid unplanned disassembly.
Yeah, I gotta hand it to SpaceX. They're doing amazing work, I just hope the general public isn't turned off by the occasional fireball.
Word, that's the nature of rocketry, makes it interesting. How do you feel about govt. funded science and research. In general I would say it's one of the more legitimate uses of public money.

A scientific law is a verifiable statement
No.
OT: That was actually incredibly interesting. Is there any evidence for black-hole production efficacy correlating with life production efficacy? Could you explain the link some more? I'm no physicist.
No?
If you'd like I can link you a non technical paper after class. In the most general of terms, spacetimes that have laws that allow for maximal black hole production over their lifetimes also allow for stars, so nuclear physics and chemistry. Biology tends to follow from there.
What would it mean in such a reality if it were possible for sufficiently advanced intelligent life to be able to create artificial black holes?
Any good Popperian knows it's all about falsifiability.
The only real problem I can see with this idea of black holes engendering universes is that information is not lost in a black hole--the thing Stephen Hawking famously got wrong. In light of this, how would an informational transfer occur from the original universe to the new one?
 I wouldn't know where to begin. Really smart people, smarter than me are working on it. If shape dynamics is the more fundamental theory perhaps it travels through the wormhole umbilical to that would link the parent and baby universe. This would mean information isn't conserved locally (in the one space time) but globally (over all space times), whether this makes sense I couldn't begin to tell you.

Bait is bait. There's no discussion to be had when somebody playing devil's advocate because being a bible thumping retard isn't a valid point of view.
There's nothing to learn from objectively wrong views. Like "gay people aren't gay cause of genes lol". They are. Thinking otherwise isn't a "point of view" it's just retarded. Fact denial does not teach anybody anything and there's no learning going on of you act like an idiot. Simple as that.
Actually it can be both genotypically determined and phenotypically determined due to exposure to certain hormones in the womb, at least in males.
