I remember hearing a radio show where they said that most people can only sustain around 50 friendships.

Holy shit. 150 friendships? Good luck with that. 150 Acquaintances you get along with, yeah okay. 150 friends you chat to, meet at social gatherings, send birthday presents? Impossible. I'd put a fairly hard cap at ~30ish.

The problem is, that isn't just friendships. It's relations TOTAL. Your mother, that's one right there. A father, a sister, already from relatives you can lose 10. This refers to literally everyone you can think of.  Quick, name 150 people you can name. At all. that you know. it will certainly be less the 150. It refers to whom you are capable of seeing as a individual capable of independant action as opposed to generic people in the halls. Example, if you have a crazy neighbor you hate, he occupies one. He certianly isn't your friend. but you're capable of carrying out social interactions with him.
 
In a small enough town, you could know literally everybody, but everyone, regardless of your affection for them, takes up 1 in your number. Also eep inmind, it isn't a hard cap. You can have fewer, or more, but It's hard.

Looks like just another normal man carrying out a conversation with a robotic fetus. What's so weird about that?

I wonder how a kickstarter for this would do.

Wasn't the Death Star's ultimate purpose to combat some vague alien threat that's only alluded to in some of the more obscure canon pieces?

If by 'vague alien threat' you mean 'citizens of the empire'.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

You're right. Snelkoppeling is a pretty WTF word.

I am afraid that anything that is WTF enough to make someone go WTF about Japan, knowing how WTF is normal for Japan, I think that link is going to be so WTF that it is NSFW.

I ment that there's two steams in the folder, but one steam at the bottom.

And hey, it's litteraly translated into "quicklink". No, we do not have "slowlink".
