    Grains? No way. Roots and nuts more likely.

    Because it is easier to keep to the diet. I have tried those. After 6 months you will feel malnourished because you aren't eating enough magnesium or whatever but by that time you've lost all the weight you wanted to lose.

    What? Almonds and other nuts? Do not exist in nature?

    Its a 'processed' food. Raw meat isn't. Yeah I know I don't care either.

    'Organic' food is a rippoff for consumers who don't know better. The non-descript items are just as good if not better.

    Native Americans, Texas, Hawaii. Need I go on?

  7. Re:wow on Bill Gates & Twitter Founders Put "Meatless" Meat To the Test · · Score: 1

    Last time the food industry tried to replace some other 'noxious' existing product with a more 'healthy' alternative we got margarine and olestra. I would rather eat meat thanks.

    His right-winged predecessor did a lot of spending on infrastructure and military forces while he was in power. Honestly I don't see where you are trying to go with this.

    You think France cares if Google operates there? Its not like it is the only search engine or e-mail service around you know.

    As for tax evasion of rich people there is a longstanding tradition of changing residence to Monaco to avoid paying income tax in France.

    Google, Amazon, Apple escaping taxes and it starts to add up to real money.

    Amazon does not do a lot of face to face customer interaction. That about sums it up.

    Most of the people working for Amazon are box shifters in warehouses. A lot of people claim those are de facto sweatshops.

    They Russians not sell the engines direct to the US.

  19. Re:"Contract is not up for competition" on SpaceX Files Suit Against US Air Force · · Score: 1

    You fix that by having more than one supplier.

  20. Re:"Contract is not up for competition" on SpaceX Files Suit Against US Air Force · · Score: 1

    The USAF did that. They even demanded to have two suppliers. Lockheed Martin and Boeing won the EELV contest. However they decided to do a 'joint-venture' i.e. a monopoly afterwards claiming it was uneconomic to have two suppliers. Since then US government launch prices went up believe it or not...

  21. Re:He's playing with fire on SpaceX Files Suit Against US Air Force · · Score: 2

    Actually the Air Force when it did the EELV contract considered it a problem important enough that AMROSS got a license to build the engine in the US and got all the technical documentation to do it. They were supposed to have an assembly line in the US. But they ended up not building engines in the US because it was 'too expensive'.

    After what happened in Crimea the 'reset' is over.
