  4. Re:Not sure I would categorize this as a "Failure" on NASA Morpheus Lander Test Ends In Explosion · · Score: 1

    No, A failure of a lander means a failure of a lander. But it can be a success for both the flight test and the mission. I mean they probably learn a lot from this, but the lander still exploded.

    Even murderers know that republicans are crazy!

  6. Re:Awesome! on Australian Billionaire Wants To Build Jurassic Park-Style Resort · · Score: 2

    Yes, dinosaurs have never existed and any fossils is just to test our faith.

    DrXym meant dragons and inucorns. Dragons did exist, the bible says so, But there is no bones or fossils after them.

  7. A small step for mankind... on Controlling Monkey Brains and Behavior With Light · · Score: 1

  9. Re:Many are going to Nigeria on Why Junk Electronics Should Be Big Business · · Score: 1

    You have to compare the manufacturing, packaging and shipping of the new LCD/LED with moving an old CRT nowhere.
    Using the old CRT doesn't have any additional manufacturing, packaging and shipping costs(both environmental and $)

    Why would anyone want to ethanol up two perfectly good cups of water?

  11. Re:Neon on Asteroid Crashes Likely Gave Earth Its Water · · Score: 1

    1. There is a lot more of Hydrogen and Oxygen than Neon.
    2. Water have a feezing point of 273.15 K, while neon is 24.56 K(Under standard pressure, but it doesn't change much). This means that water can form a solid closer to the sun, and crash into things like Earth instead of just get blown away by solarwind.

  12. Re:Rotating round thing? on Why Did It Take So Long To Invent the Wheel? · · Score: 1

    I think you are right about the mill. But I was actually thinking about the rotary hand quern, but that still only date back to something like 500 BC.

    The slow pottery wheel(tournett?) might predate the wheel, but I don't think that it counts as a wheel.

  13. Rotating round thing? on Why Did It Take So Long To Invent the Wheel? · · Score: 2

    When was the flour mill invented? I mean that kind with a rotating stone wheel on top of another stone.

  14. Re:Mix it up! on Test-Tube Burgers Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    The only good thing you can do with old horses is burgers and sausages, so why not do that? Ok, you can also use the hides/leather, hair(for paintbrushes and bows for string instruments) and I think there is some way to make glue out of them. But my point is that it's a waste of meat not to slaughter horses (even if it just end up as dog food).

    and no, this is not a slippery slope towards soylent green.

  18. Re:Why don't I feel upside down when at the S. Pol on Is the Earth Gaining Or Losing Mass? · · Score: 1

    It's because of evolution. Animals falling towards earths center have the evolutionary advantage of not floating off into space.

    There is even an xkcd comic that's slightly on topic:

  23. Re:Queue... on Taliban Seizes and Burns PCs, Cell Phones To Stop Obscenity · · Score: 1

    It's a trap!

  24. Re:The EU is not taking concrete action yet? on EU Moves To End Surveillance Tech Sales To Repressive Regimes · · Score: 1

    The point is that there would be no cellular network without surveillance tech. Keeping track of how much you call(minutes), when you call(day/night time), where you call(loca/national/international) is a kind of "surveillance" and the "tools" comes as standard so that the providers can charge you the correct amount.

    If the protesters(or whatever) don't want to be tracked via cellphones they can choose not to use cellphones. We(the EU) shouldn't deside that for them.

    "NO CELLULAR TECH FOR YOUR COUNTRY/PEOPLE THEY CONTAIN SURVEILLANCE TECH!!!!!"
