a boat + demolition material are way cheaper than a rocket + demolition material, but that's not counting micrometeorites and such.

still seems like a daft idea all in all, or a very distant one at least.

hey at least someone is listening to it XD

I've got multiple hours of music in different genres and get 50 views in 10 years...

Becoming that which they would fight against might be a good strategy to get masses to move XD

if we can not do the things they are afraid of and just pretend we do :p

- Bad parenting is bad, we should have a permit for it --> are you ready to get denied the right to try having kids?

- Thou shalt not kill --> except those really bad people I don't like!

I use Explorer Patcher for this, works well enough (though I had to uninstall it to update windows then reinstall it)
