  1. Re:Cheaper Maybe on How George W. Bush and NASA Saved SpaceX From Financial Ruin (blastingnews.com) · · Score: 2

    So any capitalist country that is less successful than USSR has been would disprove your argument at once? Because, you know, there are a lot of them.
    Besides, if going from a backwards illiterate agrarian country that has been devastated in two world wars to sending the first man in space despite an economic war against them by the rest of the developed world is not the very definition of success, then what is?

  2. Re:Light Saber on Free Lightsaber Event Now Battling Lucasfilm's Lawyers (siliconbeat.com) · · Score: 1

    It is not a saber anyway. A saber is curved and single edged. "Lightsabers" have no edge at all and definitely aren't curved.

  3. Re: A statement of intent is not an actual plan on Despite Lean Space Budgets Russia Is Headed For the Moon (blastingnews.com) · · Score: 2

    In Syria we have seen that even the T-90 reactive armour holds well against a TOW

  4. Re: SF is the worst on How San Francisco Hazed a Tech Bro (backchannel.com) · · Score: 1

    Eh? I just returned from a 1 week business trip in Romania. Except for stray dogs and garbage littered roadsides it was okay. Then again i skipped Bucharest, but I've been in Sibiu, Vatra Dornei, Craiova...

    sore throat maybe?

    No, not really. Just stop destabilising the bloody Middle East FFS. It has sort of worked before Shrub and O'Bummer. Never touch a running system.

    Blah blah blah.
    The terror attack in Boston shows that Americans don't know how to protect themselves from imported savages.
    The terror attacks in Kunming show that the Chinese don't know how to protect themselves from conquered savages (nothing new there, though).
    The terror attacks in Istanbul, Lahore, Bagdhad, Mogadishu and so on show that even savages don't know how to protect them from other savages. What do you know.

  9. Re: Aren't almost all the deliveries unmanned ? on Unmanned Cargo Ship Reaches ISS On Resupply Mission (telegraph.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    It was launched by an Atlas 5, that one uses new Russian engines.

  10. Re:Maybe they are mixing up the cause and the effe on Heavy Social Media Users 'Trapped In Endless Cycle of Depression' (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    To be honest, no, not the old classic. I was rather speaking from my very own personal experience.

  11. Depends on the depression, I guess. The therapy working best for mine is sertraline + bupropion in varied amounts.

  12. Re:the summary literally mentions exactly that on Heavy Social Media Users 'Trapped In Endless Cycle of Depression' (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    Not really, no. It is not even nearly similar to what I have written. Dr Primack thinks that the reason is that direct social relationship is less energy consuming.
    I have written that depressed people can feel lonely and therefore try to find someone to talk on social networks - there are obviously many more people on social networks who are willing to chat (otherwise they wouldn't be on social networks in first place).

  13. Maybe they are mixing up the cause and the effect on Heavy Social Media Users 'Trapped In Endless Cycle of Depression' (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    It could just as well be that depressed people feel lonely and try to connect to others at least this way.

  14. Re:It is not a justification for more surveillance on Terrorist Attack In Brussels Airport and Metro Station: At Least 34 Dead (mirror.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    This pre-airport security - is what they actually had in the Kiev Borispol airport when I've been there a year ago. Not fun at all.

  15. Re: Suzie can vote. Suzie can get a pitchfork. on Fast-Food CEO Invests In Machines Because Regulation Makes Them Cheaper Than Employees (yahoo.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Or maybe they'll just shoot you and take your wallet. Desparate people are dangerous and social security nets keep the crime rate low.

  16. Re:Good to see this on EU Court Says Hotspot Owners Aren't Liable For 3rd-Party Piracy · · Score: 2

    You'll see it right in TFS:

    "...has said it is not reasonable for owners of public Wi-Fi hotspots to be held liable for copyright infringement committed by users on these networks. Sony took legal action against a German business owner after a third party allegedly illegally downloaded music..."

    But why do I expect people reading the summary in first place? I guess I must be new here.

    It is not about child porn anyway, just about the content mafia.

    It is actually a German comedy act - die Telekomiker. They also own the "T-" brand, as in T-Shirt, T-Rex and T-Bone Steak.

    That "since WW2" makes the things far too easy. Brits have fucked up the whole middle east in first place.

    Well, Britannia has been an unwanted invader for a very long time, this is the price they have to pay for that.

    A 777lr had a 22 hour passenger flight a decade ago. It is just not worth it, too many pilots have to be on board to ensure adequate resting times.
