  1. Re:WOW! on 3D-Printed House Constructed On-Site In One Day (treehugger.com) · · Score: 2

    there is other additive to concrete than portland, they can include styrofoam and fiberglass that not only make the concrete weigh less it also improves the R factor and with double layer walls that have an air-locked barrier between them they will be insulated, the days of the 2x4 pine boards in construction is on its way out and all the ranting by old farts wont stop 3D printed homes

  2. what about booze??? on Scientists Create 'Designer Yeast' In Major Step Toward Synthetic Life (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

  5. i bet he got started using AOL back in the late 1990's when AOL was giving away those CD roms like spam and his idea of the internet is AOL is the internet and that says a lot of what an inept character Pence is when it comes to both politics and technology, he was probably grandfathered in to every position his whole life as long as he plays ball with good ol grampa and does everything grampa tells him to do

  8. Re:yes, this is of utmost importance on Scientists Discover a Way To Get Every Last Drop of Ketchup Out of the Bottle (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    my mom grew up during the 1930's depression, she still cuses FDR to this very day for ordering farmers to take fruit & vegetables out to the desert and burn it when it could have went to feed the poor, (he did it to keep the prices from dropping too much). and she still keeps leftover food until it starts to turn rancid and sometimes i have to go through her refrigerator and throw out old food, i know how the great depression influenced people, she wont waste a drop of anything, i seen that the insanity can go the other direction too, i wont bother to scrape the last drop out of a can or bottle, but i wont waste half a container of good food if it can be frozen and thawed to be re-used

  9. yes, this is of utmost importance on Scientists Discover a Way To Get Every Last Drop of Ketchup Out of the Bottle (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    because throwing a tablespoon of catsup (or ketchup) away in an almost empty bottle is such a crime and a waste

  16. all those big wig IT executives that want to open the floodgates for refugees open their homes and guest houses to refugees, they can sleep in your spare bedrooms and eat your food, use your couch and TV, or if that inconveniences you too much maybe you can buy homes and supply them with the money to live since you want them here so god damned bad

  17. firefox used to be a browser on Firefox Fail: Layoffs Kill Mozilla's Push Beyond the Browser (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    the mozilla team keeps adding stuff to it that normal browsers dont need in order to surf websites, why didnt they fork it off and make a separete browser for phones & tablets, there is a boatload of stuff in the x86 PC browser that i dont need, plus when they screwed up the menus & addressbar & tool bar that was the last straw, i dont want to relearn the interface every time someone gets a wild hair to rearrange everything, fuck em, i use chromium mostly, and occasionally Palemoon (fork of the old good firefox) for some websites that are simple, and keeping an eye on Vivaldi which looks fairly decent. this pic is what firefox is now, it is not a sleek slender fox anymore, it has become a fat bloated old dog http://i.imgur.com/F0qAJrC.jpg

  18. i rather block ads with /etc/hosts file that way it is systemwide and all apps benefit from it

    should abandon making apps for ms-windows and focus on making apps for Linux, make them portable so all anyone has to do is unzip them in the users home dir ~/[my_app_name] and run the executable, and when ms-windows starts losing too much userbase because of their anti-competitive methods of conducting themselves they might change their tune,

    of course it is going to put a hell of a lot of people out of work, not saying its right, not saying its wrong. but just that it will eventually happen, how fast it happens i dont know. just that the technology is there and that is what it is capable of doing, (automating transportation) it might take the next 50 to 100 years to make human drivers obsolete, heck it might even make airline pilots obsolete too
