How could anyone seriously consider this idea to be better than a standard wind turbine?
You're right, all these people with degrees in engineering and practical experience in this area are obviously wasting their time, and you, dear Slashdot AC, once again have all the answers!
From my reading, the new article does indeed contain "reused" images:
In one case, an image described as a cloned stem-cell colony is reproduced in another image, where it is labeled an embryonic stem-cell line derived from in vitro fertilization (IVF), not cloning.
Mitalipov told the journal Nature that the label is wrong, and that another labeling mistake explained other duplicated images.
...
...two images - genes activated in IVF stem cells and in clone stem cells - are suspiciously identical. Mitalipov said one image used the wrong data, and that he and his team are correcting it.
It then goes on to discuss the 2004 paper's issues.
Oh, only the law abiding people's guns went away? Nuts.
If that's your "argument" against gun control, there'd never be any point banning anything, would there?
On the face of it it doesn't seem outside the realms of possibility that bringing in gun control might also make it easier (possible) to seize those weapons and prosecute those who own them.
Did Australian gun control increase or decrease gun crime/murders?
volunteers wishing to help in the recovery can coordinate rides to prevent area roads from becoming clogged. The site also helps connect volunteers with homeowners who are willing to house out-of-towners.
Not that I don't believe we went to the Moon, but suggesting it couldn't have been faked because some video technology didn't exist at the time seems a poor argument. It would have been cheaper and easier to develop said technology in secret than to fly to the Moon.
There's no way so many people could look at her life and so few find a problem.
I think you're over-estimating the objectivity and/or integrity of "people." There's also a big difference between "look[ing] at her life" - whatever that actually means - and conducting an inspection of the hospitals she ran and the methods she used.
Don't blame the editors. It's not their job to read submissions, correct any errors like broken HTML tags, fix grammatical errors and otherwise tidy up so that we are presented with a clear, concise summary of the subject to be discussed.
Or at least I assume it isn't, because they never seem to do so.
They have simplified a security process enough to the point that anybody can use it
Yeah, and look what's happened to Slashdot now it's so simple that anyone can use it:
the market of the next generation of a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/tarunwadhwa/2013/05/22/why-we-should-
Please, submitters, check your summaries (I say "your", though this is just another copy-and-paste job) for things like borked HTML, because the editors clearly aren't interested in editing anything.
I heard or read something about a macroscopic object being put into a quantum state of vibrating/not vibrating. Not sure if they managed it, or just thought they could.
Same as all money - it's convenient to many people to act as if they have value. You're at liberty to deny the value of the dollar, the pound, or a lump of gold, same as a bitcoin. You could also decide to use shiny pebbles as currency, as long as you find at least one other person who'll buy into the fiction. Of course "real" currencies have the weight of law propping them up (must be accepted as payment of debt, etc) but ultimately it's all made up.
Okay, makes more sense. What's with this "franchise continuity" bit though? The production has to follow the original production timeline, or something?

Their flying wing can hover under its own power, for example.
Emphasis mine - it only goes into powered flight when it has to. At other times it seems to act just like a kite.

Praise be to the AC!
Right. Oppression should be privatised!
it took him only 30 days to build... a very basic word processor
Lame. I could write an even more basic word processor in 30 minutes!
So, an "anonymous" reader worded their submission as "at least at PubPeer .. we can". Sounds like this was submitted by someone from PubPeer.
Just as likely hastily copy-and-pasted from PubPeer.

It seems like a simple message: the Police don’t want you killing people (duh), but moreso, Police don’t want you to kill yourself.
As for gangs, they only get a passing mention:
Sydney has a massive problem with illegal firearms and gangland shootings, that much we already know.
volunteers wishing to help in the recovery can coordinate rides to prevent area roads from becoming clogged. The site also helps connect volunteers with homeowners who are willing to house out-of-towners.
Yeah, totally useless.
There's an alchemy joke in there somewhere, and Dog knows the world needs more of those.

The double-slit experiment can be done with electrons and atoms.
somewhen in the Seventies... Ere then I'd thought it was among synonyms for "happy".
Well, that's what happens when you get frozen in the 1800s and wake up in the 70s ;)

Your communique might have slightly more than zero impact if you explained why.
Evacuate. Seal buildings.
Seals are great swimmers. They'll be fine.
Recently the media has been saturated with overly-hyped reports that NASA's Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer may have detected dark matter
So here's another story about it. Brilliant.
These claims may have some justification if the word 'may' is shouted
The word is "emphasised." Try it now - read that out loud and shout the word "may."

Actually, objectively, I *am* right.
The overwhelmingly positive reviews - and I mean from professional critics - would suggest that plenty of people disagree with you.
What objective measures did you use to assess its quality?
