  1. Re:Why spread the dysfunction? on Project Icarus: an Interstellar Mission Timeline · · Score: 1

    The universe is vast, most of it beyond our reach (we can get to less than 1E-22 of it which constitutes the observable universe). no need to worry about "spreading" anything, we can take all the stars and asteroids we want and not make a dent

    Are you saying space-time can't be warped? that would be false, we observe it is. are you saying we can't make exotic matter that would warp space-time? that would be an opinion on what future discovers would yield.

  4. Re:Better than that on Project Icarus: an Interstellar Mission Timeline · · Score: 1

    wrong, we know how to halt nuclear fission easily, just some cheap-ass TEPCO corporate knobs didn't want implement the means properly, and they're paying and paying the price. We do fusion in particle accelerators and fusors, there is human made fusion machines operating right now. Net positive energy is another matter, but that is a problem being actively worked.

    oh, you know what kind of energy is being injected into the universe to cause it's expansion to accelerate? you know what particles make up the dark matter nebulas around galaxies? you know what kinds of exotic matter can be built with future accelerators? all these things you know will never cause our current models to be abandoned? wow, you are one smart dude, let's halt all physics now and just listen to you.

    You certainly are ignorant of engineering and science. We already have the means, with existing technology, to make two types of unmanned starships, with transit time to nearest star of mere decades, not even a century.

  7. Re:Escape the Solar System, and Galaxy on Project Icarus: an Interstellar Mission Timeline · · Score: 1

    Since the earth has centuries of fossil fuel supply, that's hardly a concern. And contrary to what you believe, it is possible to jump into nuclear, solar, wind power with only wood power, bellows on a charcoal fire can smelt steel, and a nuclear reactor can be made with natural uranium, carbon as a moderator, and concrete. Your knowledge of the history of engineering is atrocious.

    The alternatives to Unity in Ubuntu either suck, or, like classic-mode, will only work until the next release, at which point the choice become suck or deep shitty goat-hole suck. I loved Ubuntu to five years, but now they show they will ignore user feedback and instead go with developers who only talk to each other in a vacuum. fuck that, a user centric distro is the ticket and Ubuntu is no longer that.

    GNOME shell is still a bit shaky. for now the best thing is to just select "ubuntu classic" on the login screen. THEN plan the move to something else (Mint is staying with old school GNOME for now, Arch is nice, FreeBSD is nice, etc., maybe xubuntu?) at a leisurely pace over the next six months. That's what I'll be doing unless Ubuntu changes heart.
