    Your sources are sorely out of date, you dipshit.

    "Clicking titles to article just opens a new Slashdot front page, not the article."

    I guess my public report of this last time went unheeded because of faggot moderators not figuring shit out when they were modding.

    " New articles appear underneath the top text advert and have a big yellow box around them."

    That slashdot is managing to show this same stuff to me, thereby telling me they're actively circumventing my ad-blocking security measures, tells me they're violating CFAA. Perhaps I need to file a report with the CA OAG.

    HIV positive refers to the presence of the virus in the blood, not that it has infected any cells.

    1. We've got mass-produced triple-junction panels with 30+% efficiency. 34.5% for diverged and targeted color bands using 4 junctions isn't exactly special in comparison.

    2. Far more economical to just coat your roof with cheaper run of the mill 22-25% efficiency panels as-is, it's still more than enough solar power to handle all but the most hungry or ignorant of power users.

    I would consider this more 'targeted' than 'focused' because you're splitting the beam into its primary components and then targeting your cell junctions for high conversion efficiency in that wavelength range.

    You seem to know nothing about me. Try again when you actually do. I consult on everything from programming (when I'm not making my own game) to mining (when I'm not working the four mines I own) to horticultural consultation (when I'm not growing the best medicinal cannabis in SoCal) to remote development (again, when I'm not programming my own game.)

    Just read the comments.

    Youtube is literally stealing other people's earned ad money with no justifiable cause, and either keeping it for themselves or giving monetization rights to the entity filing the false claim.

    And they know it, and they do nothing about it.

    Google/Alphabet needs to be shut down. This blatant theft is too egregious to be allowed to stand.
