Soviet Shuttle Buran Found In a Junk Heap
gruenz noted the somewhat sad photo slideshow showing what appears to be the Soviet Space Shuttle Buran, lying in a Moscow suburb junk heap. Of course I don't read Russian, so it might also be a carnival ride rusting.

Donald 'Duck' Dunn: We had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline.
THIS. IS. SLASHDOT!
If you were blocking sigs, you wouldn't have to read this.
I've heard good things about this small, obscure start-up that's done a lot of work on machine translation and has a pretty good site available. Maybe you should give them a shot ;)
"Space Nutters," now THAT'S a show name! We'll get Ron Moore to produce, Scott Bakula to star, and Syfy to air. Quick, Jimmy, get me Hollywood on the phone!
SJW: Someone who has run out of real oppression, and has to fake it.
For example if you drive around Sofia on the ring road there is a fighter jet in a reasonably good condition (much better than the Buran on the picture) parked in one of the laybuys. It is nowdays prime location on the ring road for "truck stop and servicing" by practicioners of the oldest human profession.
Great, I discover this after I spent all of my time in Burgas!
Extra medication for all!
