  1. Re:flop waiting to happen? by Bertie · · Score: 1 · on ICANN Approves Two More Top-Level Domains

    .tv's pretty popular. And anyway, it's not solely for TV stations, it belongs to the island of Tuvalu, who have sensibly decided to cash in, and the money from it's been funding quite a bit of regeneration of the island.

    Not if you do something like this instead of using regular solar cells.

    I've always wondered how widespread this relatively simple technology is.

  3. Biomass by Cybrr · · Score: 3, Informative · on World Nuclear University Launched

    It's cheap, organic, carbon neutral and doesn't have nasty waste which could attract terrorists.

    Plus you can make gas, oil, alcohol, paper, etc. out of a lot of it. Take hemp or algae for instance.

    When life gives you algae, make algae paper.

  7. A link. by precize · · Score: 2 · on Wave Driven Generators

    Some background about this method of energy production.
    I also saw some stuff about Wavegen developing "Powerbuoy...an offshore multi MW floating wave station in conjunction with the oil industry...".

    All of these sound neat, but how many of these things would you have to have to actually produce serious (enough to power cities) amounts of power?
