    Numbers grew quickly and seemingly out-of-control? No end in sight? Keeps mutating? Sounds like cancer to me. Can we get some chemo up in this thing, please?

    Talk about stretching an analogy to breaking point and beyond. Facebook is a fucking web site. Human beings are not animal cells.

    BTW, I have never had a FB account, and probably never will.

    I'm surprised people still want props for that. Nobody fucking cares mate, sorry.

    Does this mean that the BBC is not a legitimate news site?

    Your best example is a movie? Got anything... important?

    EM Drive is perfectly safe. It does nothing whatsoever.

    TPP was stopped because the EU left the table. Fuck all to do with Trump.

  6. It's not just Slashdot, but the whole world that's getting dumber. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

    We're drowning in idiots and you're not sure if it's a good thing or not?

    Wrong. Go ahead and link the study you're talking about. It doesn't say that.

  8. lol. Your book is fiction, and if the jokers who wrote it could see you now they'd be laughing their asses off.

  9. That a troll as obvious as this got quite so many replies is a very bad sign of the intelligence of slashdot posters.

    "Europeans". If that's the scope and nuance of your thinking, looks like you can safely be ignored.

    That claim will be all the more laughable after Trump/Putin get a crack at running your shit for four years (minimum). lol.

    Genuinely cannot tell which 'side' of the argument you're on. That probably means that you didn't make your point as well as you might have.

    If you'd googled it, you would have seen galactic rotation curves, which are rather neatly explained by hypothesising invisible matter in a large spherical halo around the galaxy. You'd also probably have chanced across the bullet cluster.

    The changing g you mentioned is known as Modified Newtownian Dynamics (MOND). At present it is largely discredited, but who knows, maybe it'll make a big comeback one day.

    DM is a bit like climate change on Slashdot. Lots of people get really angry about it. Honestly not sure why.

    Let me clarify. Yes, we know some of physics has to be wrong, or at the very least incomplete.

    We don't, however, know this because of the EMDrive. We don't know if the EMDrive does anything, or if we have a bunch of experimental apparatuses with anomalous thrust.

    GR and Quantum Theory fundamentally disagree on many things, mainly that in GR quantities are smooth and classical, and in QM they are descrete and quantized. In most contexts the differences don't matter, but in some high-energy environments (big bang, black holes) the disagreements become huge.

    I don't see an application for the EMDrive at the moment, the effect size is at least one order of magnitude too small to do anything useful with. Well within the reach of experimental noise.

  21. E-Cat is probably still going. The highly trustworthy Mr Rossi is getting a full career out of that bullshit.

    Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Better to have something that you've a reasonable expectation that it will do something. This isn't there yet, probably never will be.

  23. You can't "pull" if you cannot "push" yourself. You'd imagine that'd be obvious.
