I do deal in wishful speculation, this is how progress begins.
2. The moon alone is rich with minerals, many similar to those we process and use on earth. asteroids, present additional opportunities. There is more published literature suggesting that extraterrestrial resources would be a net gain than not.
3. Given that we will survive 100 billion years longer outside our solar system than within it, your suggestion is inevitably doomed.
4. This is purely subjective and I happen to disagree. Instead of depriving the African children of the meals you provide for them at your transcontinental food shelter, I'd rather reallocate the resources you squander on a daily basis. In the grand scheme, an expedition to mars wouldn't even make a blip on global resource turn around. It is plenty feasible that a mission launched from the moon could provide infrastructure that would be valuable to even the most abject cave dwellers.
In response to your generalized turd, speak for yourself-especially when projecting your narrowly wretched (and ignorant) world view.
Starving children, really? The card to played by frauds everywhere. Is saving the starving babies mutually exclusive of your need to contribute to a pointless internet discussions? Maybe you were feeding starving babies while posting. I see now. Share with me, how does the maintenance of an opulent middle class lifestyle measure against the need to feed starving babies? My guess is quite favorably!!
I love how/.ers just can't resist inane, elementary facts when responding and how so often these respondents seem to convey a much weaker understanding of the subject. Clearly, GP knows a thing or two about magnets, enough that he should be insulted by your given facts. You have no business responding to his post if you are this dense. If one was knowledgeable in an area then they are probably qualified to draw from a larger body of information than the only article, which is obviously the case in this instance. "so there's no reason to believe that it will be necessary to use coils" unless, of course, you know what you're talking about.
he imperial system is awesome because there is a pound force, weight, and a pound mass, mass. Of course, you've always got the slug if you don't want to bother with two different units of the same name.
I am saying hydrogen is a fuel. You oxidize this fuel for heat and work. This is the same as petroleum, methane, vegetable oil, and whale blubber, all of which can be formed from non-CO2 emitting technology and be oxidized in a fuel cell or set on fire / exploded. What is the difference again?
How will preventing heat transfer lower operating temperatures? In the absence of energy transport, won't the matter in question simply store energy and thereby increase in temperature?
Something tells me the thermal conductivity of cz has nothing to do with this study. This just in, TFA validated my assumption.
He eliminated his salary to $1...because he is rich enough (his words). Mackey's move attempted to offset what he described as necessary salary increases to his board members because they were being actively hounded by other corps. As majority shareholders, the employees benefited two fold. 1) reduction in employment expenses 2) The length to top management really supports the company. = MORALE.
I think it is important to know that 1) top management is still underpaid relative to corporations by like 50fold.. 2) ownership is spread very evenly throughout the company.
Fuck you hater.
I like this halo effect, but I'm not sure I buy it.
I don't really care what others think of my uhh brazen road manners. And I definitely seek a connection with my fellow motorists. I try to make eye contact with everyone on the road. Correction, everyone I pass. Know their car make/model/condition/passenger #/gender/race/current activity. That is part of driving for me. When I notice the pope I either disguise my behavior from their POV (which usually doesn't last long) or I step in line like joe blow. I just don't want to pay fines. e.g. I'm just avoiding punishment.
I drive like what most people would call a maniac. I tear across lanes quickly enough to frequently upset people. Something I have never really understood is 'cutting someone off.' I would describe myself as rude and aggressive, but others don't have to react to my driving, simply be aware of it. I always accelerate through holes in traffic. People get all pissed off at various degrees of proximity, but I would never create a need for someone to brake. I make no mistake about it, driving is a dangerous F%#king business, but the way I see it-legitimate or not-the risks I take seldom match the complete and utter detachment from reality I see on most motorists' faces.
BTW, rude and aggressive on the road is something like my Mr. Hyde, which also fights your analogy. I'm not here to shit on your argument with my bizzaro anecdotal story. I guess, in some meandering way, I want to contain that analogy to define the complacent drifters who coast through life completely oblivious to their surroundings and the deeper effect of their lack of participation and awareness!
Heh heh. I've got nothing to hide, unless my disclosure would cause me injury, which could easily stem from legal or illegal acts.
No you are not. But we are few and far between. I welcome $0.50/kWh electricity and $10.00/gallon gasoline (at whatever seasonal temperature Exxon wishes). Though I must admit, I am terribly frightened that this will only embolden the scam that is starch ethanol.
Yeah Mythbusters!! Because I'm a fat tard too who would rather see a bunch of half-baked idiots perform flawed tests to get data that is already well represented in published literature@!!!!
No, it isn't possible. There is no substantial group of Americans without an absurd and completely contradictory set of values. Some might say that this level of ignorance is to be expected in such a sophisticated society. I think it is willful. The Americans who bitch and moan about minor fluctuations in gas prices are perfect Americans: Too stupid and self involved to notice anything except what's flashing over them on a big fucking neon sign.
AT&T took over? I thought Cingular bought at&t wireless and some years later decided to use their name. I was satisfied with my at&t service until I was switched to cingular account (early 05 I think) after the acquisition/merger (murders & executions). Service was a nightmare. Even after receiving credits & phones from their funny office of the president support, I bailed permanently.
I disagree. NASA was directly responsible for a massive portion of our rocket tech. Saturn, Delta? Who cares if they are derivative works, they still represent a massive amount of engineering and development that came from NASA public monies.
The rockets that we used for most of the program were developed in the 50's... AND to provide justification for the rockets that we had
This isn't true and if you believe this than you are seriously misinformed about the resources that were required to fly these rockets we 'had.' You're erasing people who deserve credit for these developments. Rockets we 'had'? If by 'had' you mean floating around von Braun's brain than maybe I agree with you. There is a big difference between von Braun's dreams and the triple stage beasts that shot those crazy assholes off into the cosmos. You simply can't deny that NASA was largely responsible for developing substantial rocket tech. Further, I see no distinction between Redstone, NACA, or NASA. They are just iterations of the same agency. The same people and the same funding justifications: aeronautical technology development. Why do you make such a distinction?
Yeah I forgot that rule about how trashing the planet with one type of waste is a permission slip to repeat the behavior.. no it is a MANDATE to do the same with all waste. Time to go go dump my used motor oil, antifreeze, asbestos, mercury thermometers, and CRTs deep in the bottom of my neighbors dumpster.
And yet here we all are, discussing way to improve the U.S. health care system, and the movie hasn't even been released yet. And the only one "fucking pissed off" so far, is you.
Uh huh uhuh, hear that pa, I never heard of that there broken health care system before! uh huh uh huh
1) Conversations here have no influence. 2) Most threads are about the legitimacy of this fat bastard. 3) The second most prominent thread type consists of a bunch of misinformed idiots mindlessly speculating. Any legitimate 'talking points' presented by said fat bastard have been tossed around since forever, usually by people far more qualified to discuss them. He brings nothing to the table but a distorted reality that divides and angers. Except maybe the children who walk away 'enlightened'... (his most popular demographic FYI, the up and coming highschool freshman do-gooder)
"Not to rain on your parade or anything, but how many fat lazy bastards do you know that create successful feature-length documentaries?"
None, including our present subject. however, I do know a fair number who soak in their own self importance and stop at nothing to point out what they think is wrong with the world while generally doing nothing about it. This type of shit isn't progressive -it is profitable and gets you a self righteous, yet apathetic fan club. Too bad, it alienates people who might ultimately agree and provides opponents all the ammunition they need to shoot down the cause. The messenger matters and this one eats all day and rolls around in the mud.
No it is a profound wake up call to the fat lazy middle class by just another lazy fat bastard about a problem that could easily have been avoided or solved a long fucking time ago. Gee, sound familiar? I see a trend wherein this fat scum sucking bastard jumps on the latest bandwagon to create even more divisions and make money. His movies and opinions don't incite change, they just fucking piss everyone off.
I hope your from Mpls, MN or we might have a hard time defending our territory. uuhh wait a minute, have you already been detained (secretly and indefinitely)?? I may have to reevaluate my position if it poses such an imminent danger to my livelihood. Are you a government agent?? I think despite widespread support, it will be pretty difficult to grow a revolution under our political climate.
Slashdot Mirror
Since when did failure become a path to success?
Ever since scientific thinking birthed our enlightenment.
You state too many opinions as facts.
I do deal in wishful speculation, this is how progress begins.

1. no, the search for alien life is not the most compelling reason for leaving the planet
2. yes
3. yes

1) NEVER vote for a Republican 2) NEVER vote for a Democrat
My voting strategy in 10 words. Bravo!

Neither of those count. I eat pressure waves for breakfast.
Frankly, your imagination sucks.
'extremely' useful? Let your brilliant imagination shine.

You have got to be kidding me. This is the funniest post I have ever read in my entire life. Are you an alien?
