second account
hi all. I played on the php? site 5 years ago. I've just signed up to play on here and I've found my old account still appears to be active. can I delete one of them and how? don't want to be accused of having multiple accounts (which I suppose I now do have but only want one).

Moderated/Directed games
I got a bunch of my friends interested in playing diplomacy today, and was wondering if it's possible to moderate a game with them playing.

Gray Arrow Question
I saved my orders for my next move, and when I click "Show server side stored orders on the map," I see a gray arrowhead on the opposite side of one of the red arrows indicating my intended move. Does anybody know what this means?

the first life in the universe has been discovered on Wolf 1061 and all you care about is shade throwing. They even got images of the first human being found on this planet using high tech satillite. See for yourself.

"planet is habitable" does not mean "planet has humans on it"

I'd be very surprised if there were any humans anywhere beyond Earth's outer atmosphere.

in a Universe that large you really believe that....? Earth is just positioned correctly relative to its star. All stars have a habitation zone, and all planets based on mass/density can support life depending on how hot the star is ect. There is likely not life on Wolf 1061 and even at 14 light years it would be foolish to imagine us ever seeing it with human eyes.

I dont know, humanity doesnt strike me as the natural evolutionary perfect ending. thats too pathetic. Humans elsewhere in the universe is a possibility however, our building blocks of evolution are possible pretty much any world with water and oxygen that had been hit by a comet for example, and orbits a star in a habitation zone. Age of the planet would also matter. But in what 13 billion years anything is possible.

No, more like a 'evolution is not linear/directed' comment. There's no impulse to make humans in nature.
brainbomb (295 D)
17 Dec 15 UTC
Right so evolution on another hypothetical "life sustaining" world could arrive at entirely different options. I like that idea better however it is comforting to think our scientific method has discovered some facts about how humans developed under "repeatable" circumstances. I will concede however that our science could all just be andcdotal to our planetary understanding.

Oh I don't know - mine created 2 little humans so I'd disagree (hint the impulse is in my pants)

A perfect ending to a sci fi story would be they discover another planet with life. And its just utterly boring divided paranoid humans like us. no little green monsters.
Lethologica (203 D)
18 Dec 15 UTC
Lemme put it this way: the only way humans exist out-of-system is if humans were seeded/uplifted on Earth by an advanced spacefaring civilization to begin with, a la the Protectors from Larry Niven's Known Space universe. Nature isn't going to evolve humans elsewhere.

' "The conditions would not be pleasant: Gravity is something like 1.8 times that on Earth and the planet is likely to be tightly locked...'

Ugh... whoever wrote this doesn't know anything about what they're reporting on and should be fired or re-assigned immediately.

@ Tolstoy

What makes you say that?
Lethologica (203 D)

Well, "tightly locked" should have been "tidally locked", so the reporter messed up there. That's the only issue I see.
Tolstoy (1962 D)
18 Dec 15 UTC
And that is the (IMHO, fairly serious, as it demonstrated the reporter's dreadful ignorance on the subject) issue to which I was referring.
Octavious (2802 D)
18 Dec 15 UTC
Dreadful ignorance? Does it even matter? The major issues were explained pretty well. If you wanted to be strict about correct terminology you'd drop the goldilocks nonsense and swap lightyears for units that people actually use. At the end of the day, though, who cares? The major physical problems were well covered.

In the spirit of computer building advice...
What is the cheapest way for me to build a media server for myself? Should I just try buy second hand? I have a laptop that's currently running plex media server and I stream it to a Roku. However, it's super noisy and can't keep up with HD streams. Any suggestion for a student on a budget? The plex website suggests a Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz as a minimum.

Evidence of life found on Mars.
I'm interested to know how people's opinions may (or may not) change in relation to the Earth's creation and the nature of life Earth, if we find evidence of life on other planets, such as the current investigations on Mars.

For those with belief in God, will evidence of life on other planets change your views in any way? And what would the increased implication of other complex life in the universe mean for you?
