    the main complaint from disaster victims after riding Thunderbird vehicles seems to be sore necks from head bobbling around

  2. sensationalist rubbish on Buying Goods To Make Nuclear Weapons On eBay, Alibaba, and Other Platforms · · Score: 1

    All those items and materials have legions of legitimate uses in science and manufacturing; only an ignoramus would accept the absurd allegations of summary or article.

    so what if GNOME is broken, we've moved on to better Linux UI.

    The slashdot windows icon should stay, Windows 8.x is an embarassment. Even the hoopla about 9 suddenly being replaced with "we're skipping to 10 next year" is a farce.

    No, these "planets" do not have enough mass to even change the amount of visible matter seen in the galaxy, it's less than a rounding error. They are definitely NOT dark matter

    you're confused and/or ignorant, you seem to only know a few of the many possible current shells

    Not a slapdown at all, they'll just get money for programs the government approves, to be good little corporate droids. Arts, philosophy, humanities, history...what civilization needs that extraneous bullshit, there are products to be made, moved and sold!

    My great grandmother drank a can of A&W root beer every afternoon and ate a small bag of potato chips. Until that horrible habit cut her down at the tender young age of 101 years. Avoid sugary carbonated drinks!

    Never heard of any of those. Fellow fraudsters with a sheepskin are impressive. Rossi has a track recond of taking money and failing to deliver.

  23. The FACTS are that Andrea Rossi takes investor money and never delivers. This is not his first or second or third time. He parts gullible investors from their money. Why do we have to have this junk science on slashdot?

    India is bringing two thorium reactors online next year. India's roadmap is to have 25 of its energy from nuclear power by 2025.
