Give me 5 hours of access to your emails and social networks, and I will construct for a convincing narrative of several illegal activities you may not have even known you are doing. Those, passed to the right agency, could get almost any digitally active citizen in the united states thrown into prison.

It's called quality of life.

I've done this without any real issues several times. Just watch your holding hand and don't chop your thumb. It's quite a visual impact and handy at society parties.

You just made it weird.

After reading this article I'm reminded that people with questionable scientific literacy shouldn't write these kinds of articles.

Here's a tidy map of all your "overpopulation" etc.

Is it me or does the apprentice version look a little better?

I'm pretty sure there were earbuds before 2001 and that Apple did not invent them.

See my previous answer. Those were not commercial grade reactors, they were experiments. Not quite up to snuff.

Hydrogen fuel has been extremely promising for the last 30 years. It'll probably remain extremely promising for 30 years more.

If you're talking about the Oak Ridge molten salt reactor experiment, sure, they had a reaction going, but it was far from a commercial grade reactor. We're decades away from that in terms of raw study and engineering experiments. The other issue that's going to be hard to deal with is uranium-232, which is a…

Well, as soon as we figure out how to run an efficient thorium reactor, we should be all set then. Let me know when that happens.

If you read the claims really carefully, they do an amazing job implying benefit without actually saying you will get anything. Check out Airborne's nonsense:

Hm. Looks like this line of reasoning here and elsewhere did have an effect: http://gizmodo.com/code-dicks-par…

It's not a hypothetical question. The answer has an effect on the situation.

I'm not trying to be negative or anti feminist. I'm literally wondering if the objection is grounded in objectification or sexism.

Out of curiosity: Are we more upset that this involves sexual objectification in general or that this specifically objectifies women. That is to say, if this site had a counterpart aimed at women, would people feel that this is more acceptable?

From my understanding, this was less of a concern than you might think. Although the pipes were lead, within a few years they were thoroughly caked with natural mineral deposits from the water they were transporting. Roman pipes are still (safely) used in some rural European towns to transport water from streams to…

That is correct. And the situation is made worse by the fact that law makers are generally illiterate in matters economical and scientific.

I recommend tuning into the skeptical movement and reading a bit more about Monsanto. Most of the claims against the company (much as I may dislike the company) are bogus and just as insubstantial as any given conspiracy theory. It's good to remember that modern "documentaries" on any given subject are basically…
