holy crap, context please.
I mean, I know there are people that don't like the GCC compiler, but I never knew there where people who just refused to admit it's very existence.
Oh wait, you're talking global climate change.
re: (#45854281):
There's a lot of dumbasses on teh intarwebs. THAT'S THE JOKE.
Let's not forget the episode of the X-Files spinoff "The Lone Gunmen" about a government conspiracy concerning an attempt to fly a commercial aircraft into the Twin Towers. The episode title was, coincidentally enough, called "Pilot".
Reality is not just stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we CAN imagine.
Who the hell's on the writing staff for reality these days?!! These damn character names would embarrass Ian Fleming.
First we've got a guy building ICBMs right under the government's nose with the ridiculous name "Elon Musk". Now we have a lily-white uber-hacker with the eponymous name "Edward Snowden". I'm sure "Julian Assange" must be a ludicrous double entendre in some language, but I haven't tracked it down yet.
Not Courtney Brown or the Farsight Institute by any chance? Weren't they the ones that got Ti and Bo all hopped up about the aliens riding comet Hale-Bopp coming to beam them up?
Crackpots and their interesting theories are kind of a guilty pleasure of mine. Like the guys that thought LSD would make a dandy truth serum. I heard they threw great parties^W^W did some interesting research.
Back to the Soviet angle, they also researched the LIDA machine, which was supposedly an electronic sleep inducer.
Philosophers have long theorized that the Big Blue Room contains everything that is not Your Mom's Basement. Strangely, the portal will transport you to either the Big Blue Room or the Big Black Room depending when you transit it.
wow, talk about bad timing. I don't see how they can sell this in our post-Snowden world. Who wants some creepy NSA intern SEXINT'ing all over your pharmacy purchases? Much like "the cloud", the NSA's killed this idea deader than a doornail.
So much for American innovation creating new industries to lead us out this great recession.
For a $100,000 car sold by some Ian Flemming villain, I expect the damn thing to be giving back more than 1.1 KW just sitting in my driveway. And v2.0 better be able to hover.
1. No mention of where they're sourcing their imipolex G from. Ex-NAZI rocket scientists are hard to come by these days.
2. China & India, you really need to step up your game. It's not quite as big a boost to national prestige when hobbyist makers are getting their stuff launched. If SpaceX starts providing unused space for hobby payloads to fly standby, every school science project could get launched.
Too much of this BS going on these days to be merely negligence , ignorance and incompetence. Yeah, the NSA would never abuse all that personal data it's hovering up.
This is why we need to get books on the law now that make robot rustlin' made a misdemeanor.
That way, it's less hassle to build a replacement robot than it is to recover one hijacked by the disaffected. Actually, drive the price of robots down low enough, and people won't bother to secure them. You could just have a free global pool of robots, and just find one nearby when you need one.
This disgusts me.
Walmart, and the other retailers, shouldn't be forcing their employees to come in and work in a madhouse like that on Thanksgiving day.
These people should be at home with their families, beating them up.

Asimov was right, nanotechnology is sexxy!
Move over Natalie : Raquel Welch, tiny and miniaturized, in a skin-tight diving suit.
Fantastic!

Are you sure you're not thinking of Ted Serios? I don't think he was a Soviet, in fact WP states he was from Chicago.
I wasn't aware nensha was a thing beyond Ted. Hey, you learn something every day.
random numbers tend to be treated almost as a religious argument rather than a technical one.

Time to send in the Phone Cops to bust some heads! Starting with Dr. Johhny Fever.

When the last tree has been cut down, the last fish caught, the last river poisoned, only then will we realize that one cannot eat money.

The US dollar is backed by the full faith and credit of the US government . Bitcoin is backed by absolutely no one .
I'll give you one guess as to which of those two I put my trust in. /Frohike
Ted Nugent disagrees.
engineers are not as highly respected in Korean society as they are in say, American society.
Wow. Talk about damning with faint praise.
