Would you live in a City, floating on the sea?
 

Interesting concept, but sounds like too much like an island to me. Probably drive me stir crazy:2 cents:

No chance in hell. One bitch slap from mother nature, and bye bye birdie.
:2 cents:

Can I install a v-twin on it and cruise the oceans?

only if goodgirl is bare foot and on cam. :winkwink:

I couldn't do it. I need nature surrounding me.

Defiantly NOT. No chance.

As someone who lives in the Tropics (and susceptible to typhoons/cyclones/hurricanes, whatever the label), all I can say is: :2 cents:

Can I ski behind it ?

:1orglaugh Yeah, a V Twin would go a long way:Oh crap

Pretty sure that is the case weather on a boat, island, or land.

I am sure she would be game.

Well, I could run a couple.

Yes,I'll try it for a week or so

"Some of the new political ideas the group is tossing around include legalizing marijuana and making intellectual property communal -- so that everyone would take ownership in art produced on the city at sea."

sounds like commun'ism to me :helpme

island fever?

I lived on various cruise ships for nearly ten years -- and that was more than enough for me LOL

They need to MONETIZE the project--so throw in Online Gambling in the mix :thumbsup Also, another way to make money off this: many server companies are tired of jurisdictional confusion regarding hosting issues--so, offer hosting. Of course, no CP or other shit that's universally deplorable.

The problem I see with this 'floating' international waters host island is where do you get the power to run the system? Solar? Saltwater ionization/chemical reactions to generate power?

sounds like a pipedream..

that's nothing for me

It looks like a condo complex and not much else. Where do people work, shop, live?
WG

they draw pics of one another and share the credit:1orglaugh

Oddly enough my first thought was going to be "where are they going to put their garbage?"

Hell ya. At least for awhile.

no thank you

Sounds like they're trying to create Utopia, but there's still going to that asshole who wants to smash your face and steal your Ipod.

one step closer to getting on the map in the Universe ... harnessing the power of the planet ... etc.

uh nooopppeee!!! too many things in there that eat flesh:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

no surfing for u :1orglaugh

The beer cans will pile up pretty darn quick there...:1orglaugh

looking nice... i would like to try...

:1orglaugh

looks stable enough

The overall idea is good, but the communal ideas being tossed around will doom it to failure. There will ALWAYS be those that work harder than others, and those that will take advantage of the situation just sponge off of others. With no real incentive to create, why bother?

We're not Star Trek.

I bet the pirates are loving this, fuck taking over a ship now they can take over a whole city

Not really for me..:2 cents:

I think I can't survive.

Other than getting supplies and the isolation,it would be cool

Cost prohibitive..

Im sure Obama will give them some money for research.

Im living in a country thats 75% water when we remove the dykes so I guess that would be ok with me as well
