  1. I'd say that mere physical reductionism of neurons, genetics, and brain chemistry alone cannot account for human behavior.

    Much more intelligent and educated men than you and I believe in physical reductionism. Why is this a valid argument? Until your thought is intrinsically on their echelon your opinion is inherently meaningless. Is my opinion meaningful? Of course not, because I too am not nearly as intelligent as Gauss, Einstein, Faraday, or any number of men who did more in elementary school than I have in my whole life in terms of academia. This is why I don't even bother to argue my Lo-Fi opinion.

    Why, then, am I dual-majoring in physics and chemical engineering? Simply because I seek the ability to manufacture a nanomachine that facilitates neural processing, protocol, and networking; this can potentially allow myself and others to have the ability to think on their level--and, perhaps, facilitate the assimilation of knowledge in the human race.

  2. And Agares, physics is not plug and chug memorization, it's analyzing how the universe works. You can't just memorize equations to solve something like this, there's a lot of analysis and interpretation for physics like this. I analyzed what physical phenomena the described setup produced, and then synthesized multiple equations together based upon an approximation I had to come up with on my own. There's a difference between rote math problems and physics, Agares.

    Very well said.

  3. Actually, I did this stuff senior year of highschool. Also, just looking at the problem briefly, shouldn't a numerical answer be the final? I call shenanigans.

    High school? Oh wow, how impressive! What's the name of the school? Also, the final equation is all that is necessary--a scalar value doesn't show much.

    Since you're a veteran at this, how about an easy one for you to solve:

  4. Aryte wasn't a marshal and sukasa wasn't in charge of the ground division tho. Aryte was in charge of the ground division and sukasa held no notable position.

    I think you're right about Sukasa... As for Aryte I'm almost certain he was a marshal--equal to Lurdan and Anthony.

  5. There was once a time when many of the higher-ups were in the Mercz, myself included. Aryte was a Marshal, Joseph was in charge of the air division, and Sukasa was in charge of the ground division. Seriously.

  6. As our Order matures and assimilates into every one of us, members come and go as a perpetually passive introspection that we all find apparent. However, ever so often we are blessed with a follower who is inherently a beyond-wonderful addition--an individual such as Ms. Kiranov. Rarely do I submit my deepest regards for anyone; Aryte being the first, Syl the second. She is fully qualified for Praetorian, and would have been my first and only choice.

  7. Fairlight's weapons have been refined exponentially; well beyond that of most weaponry found in Second Life. If anyone has enquiries regarding Fairlight industries, one simply needs to ask Julia Faulkland rather than do some colloquial investigation brimming with fallacies.

    I hate the media.

  8. [10:38] Endra Ashbourne: The group was created prior to the ejections though. The roster included quite a few Ordo members (if I go down the list right now, for example, we have: me, Euro, Faril, Keller, Krow, Lestat, Rygad, Tandem, Tenaki, Thunder, Zero, and Zrazor). It was created to be just a group of friends, though it is entirely possible that the purpose of the group can or has shifted.

  9. A new group has spawned from the mess of fail: Eclipse.

    Currently stationed in Lighterdark.

    DIGNITARIES:

    Eclipse CEO: Josey Bingyi

    Eclipse Prime Minister: Lordbob Boa

    Eclipse President: Revenant Graves

    Eclipse Commy: Iven Chesnokov

    Eclipse Facist: Fox Absolute

    Eclipse Consort: Sinsali Tripsa

    COMMANDERS:

    Dagger Exonar

    Lestat Umarov

    Arch Graves

    Keira Skytower

    Sinsali Tripsa

    CREW:

    First Officer: Endra Ashbourne

    Second Officer: Trevor Russell

    Chief Medical: Anlysia Gregoire

    Chief Engineering: Rygads Hax

    Warden: Mithril Matzerath

    Notice how Dagger is listed twice under the command section. This group is most probably of the same brew as Erebus.

    Some familiar Erebus names: Arch, Revenant, Butthole...

    The sim they use seems to be Lighterdark, it would be appreciated if someone could retrieve further information regarding the owner, parcels, the nature of the sim, et cetera.

    This will be the official thread regarding this group; post any information here.
