You mean in contrast to the anabolized antibiotics beef grown by today's megacorps? Same goes for most animals. It's definitely valid for dogs, and not unlikely humans as well.

I'm saying we have the option. There's little reason in modern Western society to eat meat.

What a weird statement. While possibly true, it's like saying we should ride in carriages because without the wheel, we wouldn't have the car. You're basically saying we have to eat the animals as thanks for their meat making us intelligent and advanced. Have you ever wondered why?

Agreed. My biggest problem with meat is the industry itself, not so much the fact that it's dead animal. This is why I try to eat vegetarian if I can. And by hunted I'd prefer it to be hunted with a challenge, not by a fat bald middle aged sociopath in a tower with a sniper rifle. But sadly...

Survive up to one year? That's a ridiculously short amount. Have fun emerging into a world that was annihilated by nuclear war one year ago. Not to mention the tension that arises in a community of 200 strangers. Yeah, no, I'll build my own shelter buddy. But thanks!

No, I need it for editing. But I seem to have forgotten even the basics. I'll have to spend some time with it.

That's not the point! I was referring to the appointed officials, i.e. generals and such. You can't just replace elected people. Again, bail!

I used the words equally competent.

Put all your eggs in one basket... Anyway, don't most of the (appointed) officials have equally competent backups and replacements?

I used to know how to install them, but I forget. Basically, Virtualdub comes completely devoid of codecs, and you need to install them manually. Can anyone provide me with a download link and some instructions for the most common codecs? I've googled around without success.

That's the whole fucking point! He wouldn't know what the fuck to do! If you had read my posts you would also know I mentioned this at least twice. Also, you seem to be clinically unable to differentiate between probabilities and absolutes: It's just far less likely than if his parents were...

In theory, yes. But it usually isn't.

There's plenty of that stuff all over the Internets. Just sayin'

Einstein apparently had a fairly average IQ. Around 130 according to some sources. But again, it doesn't really matter if Einstein had a high IQ or not. It's irrelevant to the discussion, especially as none of use know what IQ he had. I'm going to stop speculating about it, anyway. That's...

Kinda gross. 5/10 for the Fallout.

Exactly. Crni, don't ever equal IQ and intelligence. IQ is a measure of abstract logical thought, something you develop a lot in Western education, with maths for instance. An IQ test measures just that, something you probably wouldn't learn in a rural environment, or at least not focus on...

It most likely doesn't, but there's no reason it couldn't. But that wasn't really the point. A major factor for IQ being "hereditary" is social situation that doesn't change. If you go back a hundred or so years to rural Europe, most people you'd meed would have a fairly low IQ. We got a...

I doubt he had big issues with it while it was happening. You don't know if those soldiers will feel remorse when they're in their 80's. I've read the adrenaline rush of combat does that to people. They seem all excited and happy while it's happening.

Crni, you're an idiot. If you raise a black child in a Western European family, he'll run a higher chance of having a normal to high IQ than if he had stayed in Africa. It's not a black thing, it's a society thing. There are high IQ people in poor African countries but they're fewer. Lack...

D- is still pass. I'd call it F+. And how do you know it has improved? Sources?
