    Or well, I assume you may have better oversight of it all, but who knows, and I don't trust your people more than the russian people.

    We might even see new nuclear power plants, which is definitely a good thing.

    Nuclear power plants is totally unrelated to nuking things outside a reactor. No contradiction.

    Oh, and as for using any relevant amount of nuclear weapons on the surface at once -- say, the amount that would be exchanged between India and Pakistan in a nuclear war -- um, no. That would be a Bad Thing(TM).

    Looks like a decent solution to the global warming issue... Also if more people starved and died it would leave more room for other species and kick of more evolution. An extra bonus would be even more evolution, again, thanks to all the resulting mutations.

    No, it's not the norm, because it doesn't exist, but it have to start somewhere.

    By that logic any new TV show/games/.. would fail everywhere to because they haven't been seen there before.

    And there are atleast gaming contests in other places, even if they may not show on TV.

    Because:
    "This gives cells with up to 20 percent efficiency" don't give them as much money when other technologies gives up to 40% as "twice as much."

    Three times sounds wrong, unless it's over 20 percent now and much less than 10 percent earlier, your 30% figure don't make sense either.

    When the Sun runs out it won't matter how much coal we have, (or any other energy source) unless we've used it to ship out far, far away from this solar system. Nothing is truly indefinite so your argument is mostly pointless

    120% isn't relative coal, it's relative the sun lights energy. And it would probably be cost effective yes. But 120% would be impossible.

  15. Re:Flashme on Disassembling the US Nintendo DSi · · Score: 1

    He was talking about flashme, not flashcarts, flashme is a modified firmware which allow booting from slot 2 / gba without a passme device (which identifies as a game and then start processing from the gba slot in DS mode) and also disables the warnings.

    Though, for this purpose having flashme on a DSi don't make sense at all, but I guess he meant a firmware replacement without copy protection / which made it possible to load a flashcart. Anyway, lack of hardware and probably very different firmware makes me very sure flashme won't work.

    And there are flashcarts such as the Acekard 2i which work on DSi, or did work, for how long? No idea, maybe Nintendo can fix so they don't, maybe not.

    DealExtreme sells them for 18 $ with free shipping.

    And btw, what flashme / passme devices did was to let things loaded from the GBA slot use the CPUs in DS-mode. But the DSi don't have two CPUs longer so that don't make sense either.

  16. Re:I wonder how well this would work.... on Chimpanzees Exchange Meat For Sex · · Score: 1

    Most beer around here is supposed to not be filtered with any animal biproducts.

    Most wine is, but for whatever reason most "cider" (which over here most often mean wine based drink mixed with aromas, sugar, colors and preservatives) is claimed to be ok to which I find somewhat weird and doubtful but ..

    Sorta all hard booze is ok though, though not things like carmine, dairy, snakes and such in them of course.

    But most shots and drinks would probably be ok, kinda all beer over here, most cider and pre-mixed drinks (such as bacardi breezer), most wine won't.

    Though with things like bacardi and other sugar based products you may have an issue with the sugar canes refined using bone char.

    But then, most vegetarians don't care much or know about the issue (which would also involve gelatine and egg-white), and some vegans know that life won't be lived perfect and accept that and try to do what they can when they can.

    We are still better people ;)
