  1. Re:symbolism over substance in the realm of secury on OpenSSH No Longer Has To Depend On OpenSSL · · Score: 0

    funny how this is perfectly accepted in RL in airports.

    I think it's because TSA screening actual goal is get the sheeple accustomed to be harassed by their government.

  2. Should have gone with thorium on Cost Skyrockets For United States' Share of ITER Fusion Project · · Score: 0

    If they would have TRIED with something like LFTR (liquid fluoride thorium reactor) we would have something by now. They HAD a reactor working but moth-balled it in the 70s.

    Bravo 1%'rs. Profits are in. Progress is out.

    Within 10 years China/India will sell us thorium-based solution for a massive profit.
    Just watch.

  3. Re:They do. on Navy Creates Fuel From Seawater · · Score: 1

    And since then, the existing Nuke industry have made puppeticians create laws to PREVENT new nuclear tech from being developed.

    Only the military can get around such laws against progress.

    This is why this is geared towards military needs.

  4. Too bad it's impossible* to reuse nuclear waste on What Fire and Leakage At WIPP Means For Nuclear Waste Disposal · · Score: 2

    Too bad it's impossible* to reuse nuclear waste.

    *Impossible because the rules in the US are as such that you are not allowed to do anything that could result in threatening the revenue stream to current nuclear energy giants. Guess who helped write them?

    Technological solutions exists but China will have a solution within 10-20years and we will buy from them because of these "Super Important" laws.

    When that happens, the US will rightfully become the banana republic it so desperately want to become.

    I agree.
    Government corruption is best measured on how bad whistleblower laws are in that country.

    Please tell me how you installed Windows 8.1 on an existing Windows 8 box and I'll agree with you.

  7. Re:magic on Dinosaurs Done In By... Dark Matter? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Remember folks:
    Dark Mater is a THEORETICAL stuff that weighs a lot or is all over the place to explain why entire solar systems don't fly out of the Galaxy as they spin.

    What if there was no Dark matter and Gravity could distorts time in a way that would explain it all.

  9. I'm Sorry. I have ZERO faith in government. on FCC Planning Rule Changes To Restore US Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    I'll believe it only if it survives the many lawsuits that will come from the corps.

    All this translate to in my mind is:

    The only reason why /. need great big pictures is for displaying ADS.

    Big fonts help too.

    Then they will slip in a "story" that is actually a paid Ad and voila! They make "Bank" !

    Then the community of /. goes to a less BILLBOARD-LIKE site. /. is not a TV channel. DIGG is a TV channel. /. beta IS a TV channel.

    This is what happened to DIGG.

    History repeats itself in the name of greed.

    Maybe Taco was told about the forced changed coming and bolted before he would suffer karma/reputation damage.

    It seems Dice want to repeat history:
      The demise of DIGG and immediate exodus to Reddit.

    Reddit is the closest thing to /. if you can tolerate the twerps.

    Putin might be a thug but in America thug in government are a plenty.

    Until a critical mass of corrupt politicians and their conspirators die off or a revolution occurs, there will be no whistleblower laws.

    beta.Slashdot.org is /. way to go Internet v2.0 to look "hip"
    beta.Slashdot.org is almost as useless as Digg is currently.

    IT DOES SUCK! I think beta.Slashdot.org is a scarecrow for new users.
    Just create an account and then you can change the look to "Classic".

    If Reddit would "Digg" itself, it would die, too.

    Reddit's layout sucks for newbies until they understand why it's like that.
    You get used to it within 2 days.

    I go to Slashdot for the comments. People are smarter and more experienced.
    People go to Reddit for the contents but the users are way less mature so you will see penises everywhere in the comments.

    Just make music trading paraphernalia illegal

    This is the TRUE solution. CD/DVDs, USB sticks and drives, computers.
    All of if has to go. Shutdown the libraries. Burn the contents.
