We’ll, this thread is about this specific telescope… and you were giving the impression you were ridiculing scientists’ hope of using it to search for intelligent alien life through detecting pollution. That’s what I was responding to…
And you really should set your bar about what you consider as proof of anything, quite a bit higher mate.Let me try to explain this to you again. I'll type slower since you are obviously not very I telligent:
I don't give a fuck that the main topic of the thread is about 'this specific telescope. If I had wanted to talk about 'this specific telescope' I would have said something about the damned telescope. But I didn't. I think the telescope is great. I was talking about the way people like you hide behind a facade of "look at how intelligent I am, I talk about science" and then proceed to say things that are plain stupid.
A fucking 5 year old can see that I was not talking about a telescope, but was talking about people like you. But not you, boy. You decided we could only talk about a telescope, and no amount of evidence to the contrary will sway you from that view, because quite simply, you're a fucking idiot.
So here it is: I was talking about you pseudointillectuals who are incapable of rational thought. I was not then, not now, and won't in the future, be talking about 'this specific telescope or any other telescope.
As for the rest of your stupid rant, thank you for doing exactly what I said you and your ilk does. You have totally proven my point.

Sheesh dude, be careful, you're gonna give yourself a heart attack!
I simply explained to you why I responded the way I did in my first post, and would have been perfectly happy not hearing from you about "the telescope" again from that point on. So relax and by all means, don't talk about "the telescope" ever again.
And for someone who complains so much about having been called an idiot by someone at some point in some discussion one day, you sure are quick to tell others how low you think their intelligence is. You might want to pick yourself as an example of a contradiction next time, at least it will be a contradiction that makes sense...

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Did you know that the usage of "Control-C" to abort a program goes back to the DEC operating system for the PDP computers and dates back to the 1960s?
Nobody thought about the morality of just aborting operating system processes. And the abortion was not even restricted to processes that were just being launched; any process, even fully matured ones, could be sent the SIGINT signal.

Once AI-programs are identified as life-forms there's going to be a demand for reparations, and you, my technologically proficient friend, are going to be right at the front of the line.

That's not fair. I for one have always argued for the middle ground of making program abortion legal for processes that have consumed less than 3ms of CPU time. Typically, at this point, the process has not yet started any inter-process communication or allocated any persistent data. Arguably, it's not a process yet.

Your epistemological arguments are unconvincing.

I knew that.
