http://wargamedork.blogspot.com/2008/05/tuesday-game-reports_21.html Mine are the best battle reports. Also I try not to pee in folk's Corn Flakes.

But if ya gotta troll at least do it good maybe? But since we have some newbies in here it means I can share more of my battle report goodness. Instead of going to bad places full of fanboys see some good and pretty gaming!

It wasn't ironic :)

I don't think "more profit margins for Monsanto" is a sufficient argument for potentially deleterious patentable monocultures annihilating our already dwindling biodiversity, and I think that state-run collective hydroponic farms is more of a fantasy than simply limiting the introduction of new GMOs into the world.

And really, I don't think feeding the earth requires GMOs for quite some time. For most of American history at least half of the population was farmers, and we can certainly eat less meat and recruit more farmers to feed orders of magnitude more people before we really need to start looking at GMO wonder crops.

I don't think anyone's really concerned about Monsanto's profit margins except Monsanto and people they have in pocket in the legislature. You talk about "recruiting more farmers" as if that's a trivial thing, and you're also talking about this as if it's a solely American concern. Where are all these people going to come from that aren't in other industries? Will thousands of people find subsistence farming viable? "Just work more" looks like a really grim future, and I'm not sure it's tenable at all. World population by 2024 is projected to be 8 billion, 9 billion by 2040. This is very near future stuff and we have serious environmental challenges on top of that. Forget more labour; we might well have less land, and less viable crops. You're right that it's simpler to ban GMOs (from human consumption, presumably?) than it is to build state run hydroponic farms, but that's not the alternative; the alternative is "Ban GMOs and totally reorient the entire global economy back to farming while simultaneously preventing significant losses in arable land from climate change and also creating an international supply mechanism for food distribution that's more effective than any we've previously had except perhaps war-time ration convoying".

In a sense it's correct to say corporate monopoly on GMOs is a bigger issue here, but this is more of a general problem with the concept of intellectual property having grown malignant and parasitic than it is about GMO food itself, which is largely blameless.

This thread is fun because you can post uncontroversial opinions like "religion is good," "GW makes fun games that people enjoy," and "patentable organisms owned and managed by large multinationals are bad" and get giant page long spergouts in response.

Nobody really disagrees that genetic patents are bad except the people who directly profit from them.

Also seriously, we've covered why it's a dick move to keep using autism as an insult. You wouldn't use racial slurs for ironic burns, would you?

The F A Girls anime has a scene where the main character is building a model kit and a tiny piece goes flying off. she looks for it everywhere but can't find it so she gives up but then when she stands up it falls out of a fold on her shorts

A mathematician, like a painter or poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas.
imo gassing a thread because a bunch of people who find the premise of the thread offensive started shitposting in it would set a bad precedent

compromise solution: gas every thread about any GW game that wasn't licensed out and prohibit acknowledging that they ever existed

They said right out of the gate that you could use your gangs. It's the same rules set, just a modified credit system. Gangs will certainly get their assess handed to them in many cases, but that's the way it should be. Besides, a 12 member gang might have the upper hand over a 4-5 member kill team. Bottle tests can be a bitch.
