Fuel rods: we use 5% of the energy and then we discard them.
The trouble is there are companies that all they do is supply these inefficient fuel rods and nothing more. They have a vested interest seeing to it that no other type of nuclear reactor comes online. They employ lobbyists.
Ferrock, there are several problems with it. For example, the hype says it absorbs CO2. If it absorbed significant quantities of CO2, then the structure would gain mass as it aged. How would you design something that starts out at one mass, then continually bulks up over time? Would it's dimensions bulk up as well? FeCO3 is the material. Also,It requires iron powder, not iron oxide powder. Iron powder does not occur in nature. Instead, you must first smelt iron oxide which, you guessed it, releases CO2 into the air. Not sure about the price. David Stone, the principal, says they use recycled steel powder but suspect it would be more expensive than baking calium carbonate.
So if I want to remove the 4.6 metric tons of CO2 that I added by driving my car last year, all I'd need is 9.2 metric tons of magnesite? Whoa, what a deal.
The latest Raspberry Pi model 3's come with Wi-Fi and four USB ports. The OS is on an SD card. You can make up several SD cards for different purposes using any of the many interesting distros available. Raspian is a decent basic Linux OS. As far as using old hardware goes, just retain the mice, keyboards and montors. Give each kid their own Pi and a few distros depending on their interests.

Being on Slashdot, I too had shared the anti-systemd sentiment. All it took to turn me around was watching one Youtube video.

Caution: if you want to continue to happily rant about systemd on Slashdot, don't watch that video! You have been warned!

Describe in single words only the good things that come into your mind about... your mother.
My mother?
Yeah.
Let me tell you about my mother. BOOM!!!
Ooh, Big Studies and Research. Who's the market leader in that space?

Why would anyone name a snack food that rhymes with mercury?
Next time Trump goes to the doctor he's getting leaches!
Unfortunately, the implementation of that is damn near impossible.
Naw, piece of cake: Set up a deep learning algo to classify packets as: 1. Lie, 2. Indeterminant, 3. True. Then just filter out the #1s. Done!
A space force is the perfect thing to create if you don't understand Physics!
You can go up, and if you have some fuel left over you can possibly do something else, then come back down.
If you decide to blow a few things up, it's Kessler Syndrome time!
Wait, free energy in my backyard? I say awww hell yesss!
As long as they support Radial, Boxer, and V8 and Wankel Rotary installations, we're good to go.
Yeah, except Homer found out the hard way that when you wrap an Alpha emitter in aluminum foil it tuns into a neutron source. Doh!
You almost got it right. The daughter product of the nuclear reaction, Cobalt-59, is stable
You would still be able to use the old hardware. In a marine environment for maintaining vessels on station or as an artificial reef.

Distrowatch will let you look at distributions based on hardware type: Distro Watch Raspberry Pi
Yeah and you'll be in charge of delivering the air and fuel to space.
Not sure how useful a graphene-copper composite is... Article doesn't describe any steps beyond depositing the graphene onto the copper.
I disagree, George Boole was false.

SO2 has been considered as an agent for combating global warming in at least one geo-engineering scheme. https://www.wired.com/2008/06/...
This is where Trump gets booted off of Twitter, right?
They should just put a pixelation filter over the earth. That will certainly draw attention to it, if nothing else!
Doublespeak is dead! Long live doublespeak!
