  1. Re:Flexible concrete is better and we already have on Iron Alloy Could Create Earthquake-Proof Buildings · · Score: 2, Interesting

    How the hell could you use something like flexible concrete that for braces or medical stents? This new alloy isn't /just/ for earthquakes, you know. And that info's right even there in the summary!

    Flexible concrete is worse for medical stents or braces than this alloy. Ridiculously worse.

    'Then we're going to fscking kill Google."'

    'fsking'? Really? Are you a child, or speaking to children?

    It's 'fucking'.

    What you meant to say is, 'Then we're going to fucking kill Google."

    Enough with the bullshit baby talk.

  4. Re:Overboard on 1st Trial Under California Spam Law Slams Spammer · · Score: 1

    No, what that would mean is that every single ISP that's smaller than something the size of Google would go out of business.

    Those rules would accomplish a couple of things.

    1). Make the risk of operating an ISP so high that only the very largest companies would risk it.
    2). Make the cost of internet access so expensive, due to risk to the ISP, that only the wealthiest individuals and corporations could afford it.
    3). Make it easy to shut down massive swaths of the internet by merely forging email headers.

    Good job!

  5. Re:Let the Games Begin... on Microsoft Announces Windows 7 SP1 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Hmm? Are you trolling? Windows 7 /is/ regarded as the best MS product in years. At the time you posted this, there wasn't any Microsoft bashing whatsoever in any comment to this article.

    So I don't know what you're preemptively responding to, but it makes me suspect you're astroturfing.

    You think autonomous killing drones making lethal decisions based on software routines and algorithms is 'making better decisions'?

    There's something wrong with you.

    Nah, if it wasn't wasted on this, it would have been wasted on an afternoon in Iraq.

    So, they are deliberately targeting American civilians, in cold blood. Premeditated. With someone behind them helping them make decisions.

    Do you even realize how heinous that is? For the love of God, I hope you do.

    Christ, wake up. Haven't you been paying attention for the past year and a half? Letting banks do whatever they want has /devastated/ not just the American economy, but economies all over the world.

    Bad thinks /do/ happen when you let banks do whatever they want, no matter what you personally may believe. You think nothing bad ever came from letting banks do whatever they want? Either you're just not paying attention, you're willfully ignorant, or you're functionally mentally broken.

  20. Re:How is that a win? on Fuel Cell Marvel "Bloom Box" Gaining Momentum · · Score: 1

    It's called economy of scale. Yes, 5 of the first run were $800,000.

    But if this takes off, with mass production, financed by initial investments, that $800,000 figure will go down as both manufacturing efficiencies improve and bulk orders increase.

    Take a power of ten, given the above - 5 of these at $80,000, for a net investment of $400,000. With the same savings of $100,000 over 9 months, they'll break even a hell of a lot sooner.

    And with the amount of power that Google alone uses, imagine if they purchased ten thousand of these, how much they'd save?

    Then whoever's complaining doesn't know what they're talking about. From The Fine Article:

    'If you're a registered broker or work for firm that sells any sort of investment products, you'll want to think twice before blurting out anything that could be construed as investment advice on Facebook, Twitter, or any other social networking site.'

    It's a non-story.
