  1. Re:Stay away on $30,000 For a Developer Referral? · · Score: 1

    Maybe it could be a good approach for someone like me who has no reputation. It would be a fair price to pay for being able to stay off social media.

    Ah but eating them creates the demand for more cows that fart. Less demand for beef, less cows will be bred, less cows will fart.

    The ocean acting as a buffer isn't a good thing, this causes ocean acidification which chemically attacks coral and shelled sea creatures.

    Maybe it was a honeypot attack by the US. V-22 Osprey? Flying those could thin out the Chinese ranks pretty quick. And the Chinese military could bleed itself dry trying to build F-35s.

    Yeah hopefully he can get a nice job from the publicity. If it was a 5-digit prize that could be a life-changing amount of money for a Gen. Y'er.

    Swappable car batteries have no future outside of motorsports. There are many problems which are pointed out by the EV-haters every time the topic comes up, and very soon cars will have enough range not just for the average commute, but exceeding the range of a full tank of gas.

    If the meat industry wanted to undermine vegetarianism and veganism, they could do nothing better than to quietly take over PETA and keep running it exactly the same way that it's being run now.

    Whoa maybe you're onto something...that could explain a lot.

    Funny, but on a serious note, eating cow is very environmentally harmful in practice. They release tons of methane and South American rainforests are cleared to raise them on (this is where the "grass fed" beef comes from...fun fact: they serve that in the Google campus cafeterias.)

    Yep we lost one comment to the Scientologists already. Although since their operations manual has leaked out revealing that their strategy is to threaten lawsuits wantonly with no intention of following through, I'd hope that Slashdot would call their bluff in the future.

    I'm having trouble finding a good source on it but the raw material titanium alloy used was smuggled from Russia.

    Best source I can find is this quote from Skunk Works by Ben Rich:

    "Our supplier, Titanium Metals Corporation, had only limited reserves of the precious alloy, so the CIA conducted a worldwide search and using third parties and dummy companies, managed to unobtrusively purchase the base metal from one of the world's leading exporters - the Soviet Union.

    The Russians never had an inkling of how they were actually contributing to the creation of the airplane being rushed into construction to spy on their homeland."

    As for your premise that " there most likely is other life out there", until there's real evidence, the odds are just as likely that religion is real.

    I'd say the existence of aliens is more likely since life is known to be possible within the physical realities of the universe, while deities are not.

    Only problem is, that when stuff crash from the sky, usually the Government is there to collect it. Then we never know.

    The government's very best cleanup efforts still aren't perfect. When an A12 (SR71 prototype) being tested from Area 51 crashed, it got the full MIB-style coverup. They spread the story that a bomber carrying a nuke crashed to keep the locals away, and then tried to clean up every single piece so that nobody would find out that it was built from exotic smuggled Russian metals.

    And if you can find the crash site today and look hard you can still find pieces of that metal.

    Thank you, so many of the people who criticize his detainment haven't seen the violent and batshit-crazy stuff he was posting to his Facebook wall (the part about Bush's secret pedo-castle was my favorite part). Kind of puts it into context.

    And if he snapped and made good on those threats the same people would probably be saying "ZOMG how did nobody see this coming, why didn't someone at least question this nutjob!? THANKS OBAMA >:-( "

    Oddly enough I have a '91 Toyota that has both on the gauge, but I'm swapping in the gauge cluster (among many other things) from a sportier variant of the same car that was sold only in Japan, and the gauge on that one only has MPH :-\

    And it goes up to 180 when 150 would be plenty enough...
