I guess Moore still DOES live.

If they want to use it for “Climate Change” modeling, I have a random number generator they can have for free...

If Co2 is reduced to less than 200 ppm, all carbon-based life on the planet will die because there is too little CO2 to allow photosynthesis to continue. Then, with no plant life to maintain oxygen levels, only silicon-based life could continue.

Thus, could not one accurately predict that a silicon-based intelligence would use its own silicon-based supercomputers to run programs on those silicon-based platforms to produce results from the 23 global warming programs to produce results yielding those very CAGW policies that would, eventually, lead to the destruction of all carbon-based life, right?

After all, are not the silicon-based solar power and renewables energy program the ONLY ones supported by the silicon-based supercomputers?

"...the “Sierra” system will produce at least 100 peak petaflops for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory..."

So, Ben Santer can have a bot run by this computer to spar with him in preparation for issuing more realistic pugilistic threats regarding apostasy/heretical denying of CAGW by outside agitators?

What does this have to do with energy?

Anyway, in 10 years your phone will have more computing power.

even if we all pitched in to win a war, if our leaders are traitors to America there is absolutely nothing we can do....

preparation be damned...if our leaders are traitors...

votes have consequences...voting obola in was the worse horrific move Americans made and most won't even admit it...
