I kinda want to bring up my communications system idea again, but it's a lot to type out.


Also, do you think they will add block accelerators for making torcreep tubes or escape pods at any point?

what are you hitting it with a feather duster? how do you not kill a bug in 1 hit

Come to Australia, we have ants that you have to cut up to kill. Great things to find you are camping on in the middle of the night.

I hate it when we run out of data and our speed goes from faster than everyone I know to terrible.

From what I've seen the naval part of this could have been implemented in a better way. Like having separate land and sea decks that you choose and create separately.

When I was in the US I only said it when I was at one private school, none of the public schools ever did it to my memory.

I guess what could be counted as similar at my current school (In Australia) is that in assembly, the chaplain reads a name from the book of old students who have died in wars, then the headmaster says "At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them. Lest we forget". It's for a seemingly different purpose though.

The only time we ever have a moment of silence is on ANZAC day and on Remembrance day.

Is this like an orienteering thing?

There is a camera on the MRO (Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter) that is specifically designed to take high resolution images.

Idk, it seems like a good idea to me. They can use that money to improve the country as opposed to stuff like ballet and games which can can easily fund themselves. This is what the US needs to do.

Read further down the page, they are cutting things like the AFP, and cutting the foreign aid budget.

How about instead of arguing about semantics, you could discuss the topic on hand, it will end much better for everyone.

I've noticed a lot of overweight people are generally pretty rude and ungrateful and just generally unpleasant people. Like they push in front of you in a line, or everything has to be their way. Not all of them are like that I'm sure, but some of ones I have met are prime examples.

Steemer's advice seems useful. I'm wondering what I should do to increase my endurance.

I'm no professional, but perhaps doing rather light exercises (jogging) for a period of time in the area you want to increase your endurance would help. Make sure they are not to repetitive though. Also, your stance when running long distance is pretty important, it's more relaxed than a sprinting stance.

I wonder if Siberian Husky will come back to rebut our points.

You should really use a SVG: They are smaller than raster images, and can be scaled indefinitely.

I have a chance of getting stung by a bee (their all loving around here because the neighbors yard is all FLOWERS) and getting a really bad fever.

Bees aren't particularly aggressive: they are only going to sting you if you hit them or something. They don't hunt you down like bull ants, and you know where they are generally.

0/10

2, I could get hit by a forgetin car because our yard is only like what? Four feet from the house?

I go on school camps (in the middle of nowhere) where any one of us could: get bitten by a snake/spider (of the Australian varieties), fall while abseiling (which has happened), get injured in whitewater rapids, and many other things, all hours from any hospital. I have only ever seen one person get injured in 5 years of doing it. You are worrying about things that are not that likely to happen, people aren't going to drive into your yard, and if you are really worried just go to a park or something, they have those fitness things for this exact purpose.

This is probably the best reason, but it still is pretty terrible, considering how easily it could be mitigated.

3, I sunburn very easily.

Sunscreen, Hat, Collared Shirt, Sunglasses. Where I live sunburn is much easier to get because of altitude, I've only ever gotten it when I played cricket.
This is a pretty weak excuse.

4, What the forget is their to do? Sit here and bake in the sun as I start to loving drown in sweat?

Go for a run, long distance is probably easier because it is a more relaxed pace, just practice pacing yourself in laps around the block or something.
If you want to do sprints, do Self Deletes, and if you want to upgrade that, do Self Deletes with pushups at one line, jog back, situps at the next, jog back, burpees at the next, jog back, sprint to the next, sprint back. Repeat. They help your agility, along with your sprints.
Use one of those fitness things they have at parks to do some stuff on equipment.
Go out to a national park and go hiking for a few hours with a bag (that fits properly).
To stop baking, drink water not any of that bullstuff sports drink or soda. Sports drinks are only good for recovering after heavy exercise where you have lost a lot of salt

The only real excuse here, if google didn't exist. You could even ask your gym teacher at school if he recommends anything.

Some people cant get exercise because of issues like weak legs, very little energy or even heavy discomfort while exercising that causes back pain for a day or two afterwords.

Weak legs, an issue of not doing enough exercise, just work on them with leg exercises.
Very little energy, eat a more balanced diet, get enough sleep, do exercise (it will help your endurance)
Heavy discomfort, this will go away, I used to find most exercise difficult, but no more. Also, I had to walk 48 kilometers with blisters on both my feet, cramps in my calves on the second day, and a heavy bag. I could hardly walk for the next week. It's just something you have to push through or else you get nowhere. No pain, no gain.
