    "I suspect that's the tricky bit that brought down the wrath."

    That is NOWHERE in the purview of the SS. Maybe FBI. That's about fucking it.

    The fact the SS got involved proves that the SS is no longer under control, but is nothing more than a rogue Clandestine office doing as they please. Every last one of them needs to be wiped out.

    We can make new agencies to protect the President and our nation's currency - because these assholes sure as fuck aren't doing a good job of it, taking on cases like this where there is no emergent threat to our money or leadership.

    Oh, and for you SS goons watching/reading - come get me if you've got the balls. Bet my titanium bones beats your brass-jacketed lead anyday. You'll need DU rounds at minimum.

    being able to direct where electrons go could be a huge improvement in efficiency for LEDs. Being able to funnel the electrons directly to the quantum wells built into the p-n junction could result in an output increase of great significance.

  9. Sasuke means what? on What's Wrong With American Ninja Warrior? · · Score: 4, Informative

    ""Sasuke" means something like "excellence" in Japanese."

    No, Sasuke has no translatable definition. To say excellence in Japanese, it's shuuitsu, shun, or shunei.

    Sasuke is the name of a revered warrior, Sarutobi Sasuke.

    Go figure neither editors nor article writer have any real fucking clue about the Japanese language, and thus would have NO clue about the origins of the name of a 'ninja-based' show.

    Oh, no, the Mormons were caught sending letters out to their congregations telling them how to vote, getting directly involved in politics illegally, and pretty much extorting funds from companies.

    The Mormons had more to do with this than the minority vote.

    The Menuet kernel is far superior. Which is why it's used in my production systems, and not Linux, or OSX, or Windows, or BSD.

    Don't expect to take your hardware much further even if it still does work. Apple will phase out the support the version after (judging by the timeline of your Apple OSes mentioned) and you'll be fucked despite having quite a capable system.

    In the meantime, I still have a hyperthreading P4 that handles *ALMOST* everything just fine. I paid $800 for my PC versus your $1300 iMac. I'll still be able to run a few more upgrades of my OS (plus the one I've built myself) and you're stuck like Chuck.

    I've got my irrigation systems down, no worries there.

    And I see you worked on the same "Solar Insolation Emulation" theory that I'm currently using. Emulate the best parts of the sun for a given crop, and boost power to those wavelengths specifically. It works really well for vegetative plants.

    Actually, I do a bit more than LED horticulture. I also do ZERO-LIGHT horticulture and had my parent company featured on the BBC for it, and while it only works on grasses for now, we're getting it expanded to work on other crops.
