In architecture you use geometry to calculate strenght, then symetry to make it look pleasing.

 

That looked like a homework only kind of math.

symetry

[Seraphi]

To be fair, symmetry is one of those words that's difficult to get right, like Parallel and a couple of others, and English isn't his first language.

[The_Mather1]

Thanks, Ross.

Also Dungeonal, you're not the one to correct anyone.

[Seraphi]

Now now, theres no need to start a fight over a simple mistake.

 

Given the track record, it's probably best if you two just ignore each other.

[a_bert]

you guys are dolts

 

i was mocking the fact that he is stating that symmetry is definitively the way to make a building beautiful

 

besides which: my spelling is near faultless mather

[Iconic]

Leave Mather alone, your spelling is not flawless and your not bilingual. And 'I' is meant to be capitilised.

Symmetry is what makes things stay up and look good although aysmmetry can sometimes work.

[The_Mather1]

I am not saying symmetry always betters looks, but it does so more often than asymmetry.

 

And spelling is but a mere detail when there's a lack of capitalization and punctuation.

So much for quitting and blocking the website, ehhh?

[a_bert]

truth paul, truth

[The Dark Lord]

So, who here is a fascist?

[Iconic]

Imagine it as a gradual loss in inacivity.

 

Not me, I disagree with the government having all the power.

[Retech]

I think a regime based on taxation would be awesome. Think of it as cap and trade for all kinds of stuff.

 

 

Of course it would need a dictator to make it happen.

[a_bert]

my reaction too rocco

[Iconic]

Someone doesn't understand fascism. You've been taught that democracy is teh pawnage because the government is the bad guy. In reality, I'd be just fine living in a dictatorship if the dictator was rational and fair.

 

inb4 power goes to your head etc etc not necessarily you're making generalizations.

democracy/facism/whatever I was attacking. Do you really think that less than 0.01% of the population should be in charge?

I believe in pure democracy, unless I am in charge lol :)

I think that

[The_Mather1]

I think technocracy would be ideal.

[The_Mather1]

No, idealy the smartest rule their fields until they are surpassed.

[Iconic]

.01% will never know what the 99.09% want. Not just the 0.01% best rule while the rest get no say. TbH all laws should be discussed, points raised and than the public vote. Just like the proposition system in America. That's the best because everyone chooses what they want. Also ballots should be done on a 1234 system instead of just choosing one person to lead but ideally laws should be voted on by people.

[The_Mather1]

One cannot be smart at people so there'd be no social ruler in a technocracy, only scientific, economical and diplomatic leaders. Think steampunk gouvernement.

[Iconic]

Guy kills 27 people than rapes someone and sets fire to a building.

What happens?

[Seraphi]

A person will always want more than the person next to him.

 

It applies both ways if two people are standing next to each other.

 

Which is why we can't live in a world without a government, as Rocco stated.

[The_Mather1]

In that case there'd be put up a wanted poster and it'd be the comunity's common responsibillity to catch him. He'd then be put in a mental institution or lobotomized.

[Iconic]

Yeh, that doesn't work.

You want the community to sort out problems, fine in the short term but than it gets easily corrupted and such, who decides what's right or wrong? The cleverest one? That's not a fair system.

Also lobotomy's what the absoloute [bleep]! So you want to attempt to brain damage bad people? That's sick and barbaric.

[The_Mather1]

The comunity decides right or wrong. And lobotomy on a serial killer, rapist and pyromaniac is not extreme.

[Iconic]

There are thousands of flaws I can see in your thing, mainly the fact that an uneducated bunch of dumbnuts will just come up with a torturous punishment (such as lobotomy).

And therefore the community will be bribed and influence each other, basic lord of the flies situation. And your uneducated bunch of dumbnuts will than change there minds and than people commoting minor crimes that weren't even crimes a week ago will have there brain cut our or set on fire or whatever else the community decides.

 

And soon you will be saying that we should leave him in a pot for a week, maybe set fire to him and than execute him by a 1000 cuts or a breaking wheel. Because serial killer and whatever else has no rights. It's not extreme.

And this is why no intellectual would support your system.

 

Constitution allowing slight changes depending on relevance to time period than voting on all other laws is my idea for a good system.
