Plastic also interferes with RF a lot less and makes antenna placement and design easier. First thing i want my products to do is work for the intended purpose. Next is cost vers features that I will use. Battery life is pretty close to the top of that list for most portable things and that typically means smaller screens. Feel is only interesting if all other things are equal. A lot of people above seem to equate heavy with "feels better" fine, add some lead then.
The 3d printing is going to take over everything crowed are terribly misinformed at the scale and cost of modern mass production. 3d printing is not going to replace injection molding any time soon for example. Cycle times measured in seconds and a mold that will last for 10s of thousands and often far more. They are literally stamping 1000 to 10s of 1000 of units per *day*. Think about it, you can't sell 10million phones in a quarter without making a hell of a lot of them in a day.
And as for everyone owning one and just printing their own. We are decades away from that at the very least. There are not even prototype 3d printers that can do metal and plastic in one print. Let alone any electronics or even IC or displays.
Well i want to know how a tablet is not a Personal Computer? Seems to me that nothing much has changed other than we can good stuff that is both smaller and costs us less disposal income.
Of course not. If you have an iPad you should also have a Mac Book air or whatever its called. And 2 iPhone and you can't go wrong with a few of those massive apple monitors for pluging that air into when your at your desk.
I am in a office full of apple things. However in a more serious note. Everyone i know gets a tablet after they have a laptop. Quite a few people i know didn't bother with a new one(no ipad 2) after the first tablet when they discovered it wasn't as useful as they had hoped. But Meh... whatever people like. I am looking at the convertibles right now. I just wish there where a few with a stylus.
Every other western nation has seriously controlled guns and their level of gun violence is dramatically lower than in the US.
I live in Austria. I am over 18. I can go in and buy any kind of hunting rifle or semi auto rifle I want without a license, ammo as well of course. Side arms are a little more difficult. I have to sit a test and pay 100EUR then i can buy any pistol i want. They are not even all that expensive. I do need an extra license for military style weapons (automatic rifles). And they have some funny rules with pump action firearms. But otherwise it is trivially easy to get guns here.
Yet the violent crime rate is ridiculously low compared to the US and gun crime is almost non existent. Similar things are true for other nations of Europe and other western nations. Of course some have strict gun control laws. There simply is not a correlation with gun control and gun violence across nations. Other factors are more important.
LFTR accidents are more likely to be similar to industrial chemical plant accidents than to TMI or Fukushima.
So false its funny. A core breach is just as bad in Th as with U, you have the same decay heat etc.. Any water around and that reacts with the salt...... Sure you don't get a core fire like for the graphite ones. But still something like Fukushima is a possibility. TMI kinda worked the way it should when things go south... contained in the containment building.
When things go wrong. The go wrong in ways that *don't* match assumptions. Add miss management and a bit of cost cutting and all bets are off.
If its sooo hard to deal with for a bomb... then its also soo hard to deal with for reprocessing. If you can do one you can do the other. Also they *did* do it. U233 was used in a bomb. Also its a gamma emitter that makes it hard to deal with... it does activate other materials.
Even then there is the fact that a reactor is still a high intensity neutron source. This is and always will be a proliferation risk.
This is a liquid Fluoride *salt*. Also it reacts with water especially when hot and produces hydrogen/acid. Getting water in there or on it in the case of a core breach would be bad. Very bad.
A breading ratio of one has not been shown. Modern numerical simulations show it will be rather close... That would be a bit of a show stopper if you are not prepared to add a little Uranium to the mix.
NZ has no freedom of speech provisions in any form of law. Germans care about it a lot more than your typical NZ'er. I am a NZ'er currently (for 7 years now) living in Austria with a *lot* of German workmates.
They can make their own internet. The UN can make its own internet, try to charge excessively to pay for the exorbitant lifestyles of its member politicians, and see who uses it.
New Zealand has some of the most expensive and crappy internet in the world. Also the original version was completely funded by the US.
Why do they think they can take over something that does no belong to them? Fucking Nazis.
You Godwin yourself and lose at the internet for the day. Congratulations.
I sure wish you weren't a New Zealander... You seem to be attempting to be as ignorant and as arrogant as a Texan, and mostly succeeding.
EVE is not really a space sim. To me, space sim means real time flying and dog fighting... specifically things like having to lead your target.
Which is a lame requirement. I mean we have tech to fly across the galaxy but not for a proper targeting computer? Seriously we had mechanical ones even back in WWII.
Have you gone through the airport with a cell phone... Guess what, that can easily be used as a timer and remote detonator for a bomb. Do you seriously think that bomb timers need to have blue and green wires all over the place like some Hollywood movie? There is no justification for charging him.
Its pure 100% "of course we are right" even in the face of facts to the contrariety. Otherwise *everyone* with a watch or phone should be charge. Because they can be used in a bomb.
Just turn up with a Iron Maiden T shirt or something. That "worked" for me. Next time around having a Masters Degree worked as well.. too educated was the claim from the prosecution. Now we don't want that in a jury do we.
By worked i mean i was not allowed on the Jury, the quotes was because i am happy to do my Citizens duty and be on a Jury.
Real physicists publish in Physics Review or their like. Not that crap that is Nature and Science.
Pro tip, Nature and Science don't care about good science, they care about citations, aka their own impact factor. That often means controversial/political topics (to a point), wrong, or so short that there is no science in the paper (massive supplements don't count).
You are seriously comparing this to plane crash that already killed many of them left them stuck 3600 meters up in the Andes, with practically no food where some of them where already dieing from the cold, and they knew that no one was looking for them. To top it off a bunch more of them are killed with an avalanche that hit the wreak/shelter. They were not rescued for 2 *months*.
This loser on the other hand could find a bunch of buckets but not proper containers? And for what... so he can run the generator for the xbox. After... er a day?
You fail at the internet for the day... and without a Godwin. Congratulations.
I don't know the deal in the US. But in NZ all purpose does not mean dangerous substances. Having worked at a gas station I know we are not permitted to let anyone fill just any old container, it must have the proper markings that make it safe for gasoline. In our case that typically means a grade of plastic that won't dissolve and must also be conductive to avoid static discharges. There are clear laws about what must be on the container that signifies that its compliant.
You would not expect these buckets to be ok with acetone do you? Or how about red fuming nitric acid? Typically its the same set of laws. That is each class of "dangerous substances" gets the appropriate type of container rating.
Hate to brake it to you. But the computer literate is a minority and most of the young don't give a crap and are also a minority. Perhaps the young you know. But that is not the same thing. So all in all he is unpopular and even though that shouldn't change the "outrage" of illegally busting him, in practice it does. FWIW the tech guys i know also think he is an ass, but dislike the 3 strikes stuff that is producing quite a bit of paper work (many of them work for ISPs... )

There is something else wrong with the US.

Most of these issues are solved in the LFTR design, from what I recall.
Don't you mean potential solutions have been *proposed*? They certainly have not been demonstrated.
If its sooo hard to deal with for a bomb... then its also soo hard to deal with for reprocessing. If you can do one you can do the other. Also they *did* do it. U233 was used in a bomb. Also its a gamma emitter that makes it hard to deal with... it does activate other materials.

Then how can the US use the information?
It costs me nothing to transfer information over the Internet to any destination in the world.
You get a free internet connection? If not then i don't think nothing means what you think it means.
They can make their own internet. The UN can make its own internet, try to charge excessively to pay for the exorbitant lifestyles of its member politicians, and see who uses it.

You know a lot of countries do have legal limits on yellow/red times. I find it odd that the US does not?

Its probably easier and cheaper to just get/pay/invest in a more reliable network. Don't forget all the software that would need to be DTN aware.

since at least C++ voodoo can allow a highly trained programmer to accomplish some really cool and unusual things.
Stop being a pussy and use assembly already. x86 assembly no less... the best kind.
