Many scientists believe that there is a one in a billion chance that this theory is NOT the case. Evidence rests on the fact that the universe conforms to laws of mathematics (which, to me, doesn't really count as evidence), just like it does in the less advanced types of simulations we have now, and that the level of intricacy of matter that we know of isn't infinite; intricacy only goes down to the subatomic particle level and we cannot see beyond a certain point with microscopes, and us being part of a finite, pixelated simulation would account for that. The hypothesis suggests that our technology with bio-engineering and computer programming, which ties into artificial intelligence, will inevitably merge and allow humans to simulate life... less

Well, Missy has always been a natural therapy dog; when Ruth was director of the local women's shelter, Missy would go unerringly to the woman in greatest physical or emotional distress, and just stay close.Then when Ruth got up in the morning, she was frantic; where was this precious old dog, could not find her anywhere! "Ruth, come in my room a minute..."* * *The next night Missy came in at bedtime, looking me over and sniffing...I must have passed muster, because Missy never stayed with me again, before or after that night I was S"O"O"O sick. less

What he in fact did was issue a rather vague executive order asking people to try to mitigate some of the effects of it, in making some people's premiums go up. He has not torn it up.

He promised to, and has, tear up the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal which took President Obama seven years to negotiate. If the USA is no longer situated to be the major trading partner in the region, the Chinese will be only too happy to step right in there, and take business away from the USA.Our British government is always trying to negotiate trade deals with Asian countries, including China.

Smh.

Many wannabe Samaritans are injured or killed by criminals What's your stance -- good neighbour or self preservation?
