I love the Slashdot headline "Feds Want Nuclear Waste Train, But Don't Know Where It Would Go". A most provocative issue of nuclear energy, stir in a bit of Fed-Fumbling with the idea of a ghost train and you have the perfect movie plot and Internet meme.

Drawing on most recent experience with politics in America, the way illegal immigration is being "handled" -- I conclude this announcement means that the Nuclear Ghost Train has Already Left The Station.

It is currently circumnavigating the continent. Soon it will pass through Your Town.

Folks like me who live near the tracks know of ones like it, those trains that pass through in the dead of night and (creepily) did not blow their horns, for you awaken to the low rumble of wheels that seems to go on forever. Yeah, those.

Every night the Ghost Train pulls onto a siding somewhere and dark figures with flashlights roll up and couple another boxcar. By 2015 the Train will be pulling more than half of all spent nuclear fuel in North America, and nuclear plant operators will sleep that much easier at night, since relieving them of this awful responsibility is the ONE thing the Federal Government promised to deliver all along.

It's going through Tennessee tonight. Listen for it. Pleasant dreams. Is this so farfetched? Could some one come up with any other examples of government action just as ludicrous? I see a lot of hands raised here.

I see a few others have brought up radioactive train movies, some of them with plots blatantly obvious and goofy. After all we're talking about a system of containment so secure that even a head-on with another train would roll the casks off the train and dint them slightly, as they wait to be picked up again. Cue up video of protesters dressed like skeletons with nuclear death symbols who caught a whiff of nuclear transport and scream "Not in our town!" as thin-skinned railroad tanker cars of chlorine gas, sodium hydroxide and cresol pass by.

If you're protesting, do not step out in front of the Nuclear Ghost Train. It has been instructed not to stop under any circumstances. Cleanup crews are on standby in all major cities and your bodies will never be found.

The Nuclear Ghost train does exist in a movie, but it's not a goofy disaster movie. It is a Argentinian film entitled Moebius [1996] made by Gustavo Mosquera. "Recent stories, fears and oblivion seen through a metaphor. A 30-passenger convoy vanishes in the closed circuit of the Buenos Aires underground system. Research will be initiated towards finding the cause of this dematerialization. A young topologist (surfaces mathematician) leads the investigation based on some lost maps and technical data sheets. He cannot find the whereabouts of the old scientist who designed the intricate weft of the subway web, until the unexpected aid from a young girl will ease the obtention of the first clues. Everything seems to be futile, but a random event that will risk his life gets him into an impossible train, were he will face up the amazing final revelation." This is an amazing movie though you may need to resort to [extreme] [methods] to see it.

Never mind those too-obvious disaster films. Moebius [1996] is the perfect one to take in while you ponder the meaning of the Perpetually Moving Nuclear Ghost Train.

Which has already left the station.

One thing I've noticed is that any print magazine you may want can be downloaded from your favourite torrent site in just a few seconds. e.g. here are the latest issues of some popular ones... http://kickass.to/national-geo... http://kickass.to/the-economis... http://kickass.to/scientific-a... and of course http://kickass.to/penthouse-us... These are pdf files of only a few tens of megabytes and with hundreds sharing new issues hot off the press, they appear almost instantly on your computer. With this going on, who would buy a paper magazine? NB: these are page for page exact copies of the real print magazine so all the ads are intact. I even wonder if magazine companies are uploading their own publications to sell more ad space based on how many torrented mags are shared. If I was in the magazine business I would do this for sure.

Twin doctors, one eats nothing but fats and the other eats nothing but carbs, for a month. They document it, they work out, they do tests.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programme...

The result (spoiler alert), either is not great. Eating only fat cannibalizes your muscles, and makes you not get any enjoyment out of food. Whereas eating only carbs makes you feel hungrier all the time.

But their conclusion had a twist, the main problem is processed foods that have a 50/50 mix of fat and carbs. An excellent example is whipped cream. Your body would reject you drinking pure cream, and also pure sugar. But mix them together, and you cant stop eating it! Same with many of our favourite foods, ice cream, doughnuts. All have the 50/50 mix that vendors long ago realized was the most addictive mix. Your body basically never gets the signal to stop eating.

Anyone who is interested should check it out.

Enjoy

I appreciate the links, but you don't necessarily need a separate site for every work you want to obtain: https://kickass.to/usearch/Orwell%2B1984/

Some comparative benefits of using torrent sites like Kickass Torrents include near-immunity from US tampering (thanks to foreign hosting), ability to share with others (and thus help keep important works in circulation, and out of the sole custodianship of corporate "imaginary property" cartels and their so-called "vaults," left to decay and be forgotten), and the diversity of works I mentioned earlier — particularly those that have been dropped from sale/publication out of greed.

As for that "six-strike" nonsense, as far as I can tell the whole thing was a psy-op, or is otherwise completely ineffectual; I upload ~120GB per day (six-month average) and have yet to receive a complaint. Though, I think it's worth noting that since that program began, I've been avoiding public trackers and relied more on DHT and PEX, and I've always used anti-P2P IP blocking and forced protocol encryption.

Couldn't find the download link there.

Movies and music are NOT free.

Coulda fooled me.

Get that through your head.

Nah, I'm stubborn and thick-headed.

No matter how you rationalize what you're doing you're taking for free what someone spent money to produce and is trying to sell.

The poor dears... I hope a portion of my United Way donations are going to feed MAFIAA's neediest.

You are not entitled to free shit and you are not a delicate unique little snowflake.

Sniff... You monster... Now I need something to cheer me up.

I know...

Some free movies! .

That's not exactly how it started. But it is a sham, fraud, joke, etc. However it's a cult with a lot of money and a VERY vindictive streak.

If anyone is interested, I recommend the following two books I read recently: Beyond Belief or Going Clear

Both are excellent insights into this cult. Going Clear is more or less a history and documentary, and Beyond belief is from the perspective of a lifelong member who managed to escape.

Hey Jeff, I couldn't find any download links on that website of yours. Here are some proper links:

If you can't figure that one out yourself, I don't think I'm going to be able to help you via a post on Slashdot.

Or was your meaning more like: it won't make any difference whether we give the finger or pretend to comply (TPB vs. Kickass Torrents), either way we will be eventually "shut down" (and California has the same chance of shutting down bitcoin as Internet governance has of actually shutting down TPB or KAT), so we might as well have some fun first (before we have to dissolve and reform)?

[Facial recognition software] will probably NEVER achieve the reliability standard of a fingerprint, let alone DNA.

Fingerprint matching has no "reliability standard" to speak of, and is likely far less reliable than you may have been led to believe.

Please see PBS's Frontline: The Real CSI for an overview of some of the terrible shit that happened (and is still happening) thanks for forensic "science" — to quote from Twelve Monkeys, "Science ain't an exact science with these clowns." I've provided links to the aforementioned documentary below:

Moving to Kickass.To posted 14 Jun 2013, 14:42 by KickassTorrents

We had to drop Kat.ph as a part of our global maintenance and move to Kickass.to. This was a hard decision, but it was necessary for the further development of KickassTorrents. Stay tuned for more news.

Maybe they gave it up and the Government are now taking credit for it after the fact. Either way, hasn't screwed with their service, still working great. SickBeard Torrent version might need an update, maybe Couchpotato too. - HEX

Please don't give me the excuse that, if you look long and hard enough you may find a handful of legal torrents on the site.

I'm not sure what an "illegal" torrent is, but you might be interested in this: Law and Order SVU S14E24 720p HDTV X264-DIMENSION

1560 hits to, presumably, mostly illegal torrent files, as found by Google and directly linked to the .torrent file:
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&sclient=psy-ab&q=rick%20astley%20filetype%3Atorrent

Big nasty illegal downloading site: 61 hits, presumably a small subset of what Google finds.
http://kickass.to/usearch/rick%20astley/

Neither site hosts the actual .torrent files.

Please explain why one should be considered illegal and the other not?
