ctrl-f? Just do a search for "heal."

Global warming and/or climate change says "Hiiiii~ Hope you didn't like whatever seasons you had beforeee~ You stupid monkeys kept dicking around, so we're going to be changing some thiiings~ Hope you like it! Ahahahaha!"

Cyan-grey is probably pale.

Battleship, definitely~ Novik if it's got longer range than the Lotus. Because range is love. Don't even recall if it's terribly helpful in the game. Just like outranging people because that's sexy.

So, question. Can you get a ship and keep it in reserve? Because if so... go ahead and get the carrier too, unless a better one will be available by the time you get access to fighters. Planning ahead~

E:Also upgrade weapons yes, definitely. Moar dakka moar betta.

... I always got the food to go, because I could stuff more food in a box than I could eat in one sitting (and the price was the same, so...). Mind you, I wasn't on a meal plan or anything (Because hahaha, no. Shit was 2-3x more expensive than just cooking for myself most of the time.) so it was pretty rare but still. It wasn't that bad of a deal to occasionally not have to cook for two or three days, which was how long I could usually stretch a food court takeaway. Food was pretty meh in terms of quality, but the quantity was just right.

Sounds like the best kind of bet to make, then

But okay, what would you lay down as a fair bodycount?

the whole Middle East is going to be involved in water wars in a few decades.

I would bet money that this will not come to pass.

Seriously though maniac, give me a more solid number on "few decades" and I'll take that bet. Maybe have it passed down via estate or something after death, if it's too far into the future.

I'm saying... ten USD we have violence over water shortages in that area in question in... 50 years. Double or nothing for full out war by 2100, barring technological advances rendering the issue moot.

I won't even take the skwiggly route to it. Explicit conflict over water.

And while we're taking that bet, I'll put another 10 down for no conflict against anyone that wants to take the bet. Anyone? I'm feeling hedgey.

Because there are plenty of ways that crises can be averted and they have the money to do it.

Problem: Ascribing foresight to people in power and them actually attempting to avert anything. Prediction: Great deals of "Got Mine" in the future and thirsty thirsty poor people.

There's no reason to fight over fresh water. Its a solvable issue to desalinate water on industrial scale. And considering most major population centers are less then 100 miles from a coast, desalination is the obvious way to go.

Has anyone done it, though? Is it economically viable yet? Mostly playing devil's advocate with this, but it's a serious subject I haven't noticed much public awareness of yet. Population vs water supply is another one of those potential issues coming up the road, especially with ol' global warming saying "Hi~"
