  1. Re:Good job. on Japan's Annual Nuclear Drill Highlights Problems · · Score: 1

    kidding me right ? 45 years after the start of fukushima's plant, 3 years after a major disaster, the local clowns can't factor in the meteo to get their evac plan right... YES A DRILL IS TO IDENTIFY PROBLEMS... NOT 45 YEARS AFTER THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE.

    Dear god, I feel like Jane Goodall among those chimps...

  4. Undead plastic bags... on EU Plastic Bag Debate Highlights a Wider Global Problem · · Score: 1

    Where do you get those braziliun years lasting plastic bags ?

    I tended to store stuff in my workshop in hung plastic bags. They usually fall to dust (because of sun's UV from the window) in less than 6 month dropping all their content to the floor...

  5. Re:Thanks Kovid! on Calibre Version 1.0 Released After 7 Years of Development · · Score: 2

    Calibre in French refer to the diameter of the gun barrell/size of the shells.
    Works for guns, battletanks, howitzer... not sure for self proppelled stuff though.

    Yes, that where the scumbags can get their money today and weasel out of the consequences later...

  8. Re:It's All Relative on EPA Makes a Rad Decision · · Score: 2

    Okay, I know you're trying to be funny, but let's be serious for a moment: Why shouldn't the EPA try to limit lawsuits? They cost you and me, the taxpayer, a lot of money. It slows down the entire judicial process, and increases the cost of excercising your rights in the judiciary.

    yeah, fuck people after all... it cost muney and stuff...

  11. Re:Newer tech yes, Smaller reactors no on Fukushima Nuclear Plant Cleanup May Take More Than 40 Years · · Score: 2

    Actually, if you were to check on the matter...

    The quake already disabled the plants, the tsunami just gave the final blow.

    AND NO, NO AND NO.

    THE QUAKE AT THE SITE OF THE PLANT WAS NOT BIGGER THAN WHAT THE PLANT WHAT SUPPOSEDLY BUILD TO SUSTAIN.

    The quake was a 9 something at sea, but much much lower at the coast of Japan.

  12. Re:THIS DID NOT HAPPEN on Leak Found In Fukushima Tank Holding Radioactive Water · · Score: 1

    Thank you for proving that you are a complete knuckledragger.
    Nuclear already triggered at least 2 non survivable contaminated zone onearth. And the mass casualties will only be seen in 10 to 20 years. (or at least mass thyroid cancer patients).

    Plus you are totally ignoring the several workers death by cardiac arrest of cleanup workers or the untraceable illness of the unproperly declared/registered/followed cleanup temp workers.

    Pretty sure shortsighted people were spweing the same advice against helicopters when they first start being used.

    You have to start somewhere. not everything works perfectly at the first prototype... just look how long it took to get the V22 osprey into active duty. the first prototypes flew in the 60'...

    This comment coming from the land of the porkbarrel project is pathetically laughable...

  17. Re:Minitel and trumpet winsock. on Computer History Museum Wants to Preserve Minitel History · · Score: 4, Interesting

    For god sake, when you have no fracking clue on a topic at least be kind enough to keep away from writing aboot it.

    The minitel was never design for competing against the internet. It was put in place in the early 80' way before even rtc modem became affordable at times were few people had computers and barely anyone had heard aboot BBSs.

    In fact, the minitel allowed with a serial cable to be used as a 1200/75bps modem for your computer. At the military/scientific level sure it appeared after tcp/ip networks, but for the public, it was here first and stayed there alone for a long time...

  20. Re:Bad Summary on Japan Plans to Restart Most of Their Nuclear Reactors · · Score: 2

    Check on all governemental subsidies before claiming nuclear power is disadvantaged...

    And don't even get me started on the "Price-Anderson" tricks...

    Once again, it's not the chance of an accident happening the big factor. It's the extend of the damage when such accident happens.

    (Check out "we almost lost Detroit" for a better historical perspective of these shenanigans)
