Hi All,
Mars seems to be the place where space probes go missing, so if we get a message from Mars by some hidden life form will it be "Quit dumping your junk on our patio!" when translated ?...

Being a non-technical but very imitative species, they'll reverse engineer the hardware and discover that the transtator coils are the basis of subspace warp travel and build a starship.

Marc, my friends and I know every line, every word, every scene.
Once, a NASA friend and I had a complete conversation at work - and were able to get the important points back and forth, only speaking in Star Trek quotes.
Those were good times.

Maybe the martians are repeatedly shooting down our scouts hoping to prevent future invasions.
And I don't even want to know about all the lost probes in Uranus

Apparently just the European ones. They really have evolved to the next level.

Considering Europe history of invasions I'd say they're wise.

VOLA - Gutter Moon[^]
Spotify recommended this to me. Really awesome debut full length album by Danish Vola!
They play a technical kind of metal with clean vocals.
The entire album is great, but this is my favorite track by just a little bit.
One of the best albums of 2016 so far

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I really don't know why anything about it has to be censored 
Try this one: VOLA - Gutter Moon - YouTube[^]
Same song, just not the official video. It's just the album cover for 4 minutes

I hate such organizations.
I'm on of the people who still watches DVD's/blu-rays and I always go for the English menu's only because BAF/BREIN (our GEMA) let's you sit through some anti-piracy commercial. I know I BOUGHT the DVD SO LEAVE ME FRIGGIN ALONE!!! 
You can't even (legally) listen to music at work unless your boss pays for it (that includes radio, YouTube, Spotify...).
We pay a piracy fee for empty CD's and USB sticks because this anti-piracy lobby figured we'd use it for illegal copies anyway.
Companies here pay a tax on printers because, heaven forbid, you'll print something copyrighted! You must prove you don't or pay a fee.
Don't even think about a little music for the hold line on your telephone, you have to pay.
Guilty until proven innocent.
The worst part is that they're making so much more from it than the actual copyright owners.
They're a bunch of good for nothing, money craving, corrupt, inadequate, a-holes.
Anyway, that first video I posted was from the official VOLA channel.
Good thing GEMA blocked it, because you wouldn't want artists to advertise their own stuff.
And what's worse is that people link to it on forums that are visited by millions of people.
Could you imagine all the exposure these artists could get!?
Before you know it they actually make money and that would render BAF/BREIN, BUMA/STEMRA, GEMA and all these organizations obsolete!
Luckily disaster has been averted here and you can stay blissfully ignorant of the awesomeness that is VOLA
I'm not a big fan of these copyright wolves "protector" organizations by the way.

Toreador?
To + read (study) + or (alternative) = Toreador or bullfighter.

Ole!
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.
