I live in The Netherlands (Amsterdam actually). There is probably more roof surface in the Netherlands than there are roads. Even if there were less roof surface than roads, the lower cost and increased efficiency of roof mounted solar panels outweighs those of road mounted panels. It is a nonsense idea.

Do not speak on my behalf. I don't support FIFA at all. And no I don't watch football either.

It isn’t Smith, look at the white fingers.

They said a while ago that they would not report on kickstarter projects anymore, yet here we are...

Did anyone check whether the microwave was off in the cafeteria?

You are talking nonsense in this case. Nespresso uses their own process to reclaim the aluminum from the pods when they are sent back to the store. You can even watch a movie about it in the store and probably on their site too.

Add to the windows patches all the Java, Adobe and other updates and my work laptop is a daily hell of updates that I need to do immediately or postpone.

Same thing happened to me last year. They withdrew several thousand of dollars, but the bank refunded everything to me.

This guy would be great in an origin story about Raymond in “everybody loves Raymond”

Sorry, but that fish isn’t actively hiding. Parrotfish sleep during the night. They can't close their eyes, so it looks like it is holding still to avoid the Sharks. In reality this fish is totally oblivious as to the presence of the sharks.

He went to Youtube and looked for the trailer.....

They are making a motion picture not a documentary. Scientists are not at the helm here, so it is useless to expect absolute accuracy. Look at what happened to interstellar.

That's not at all what he is saying.

Sciuma doesn't mean "scum". It is Italian for "foam" or "froth".

I worked with these a lot in my biochemistry days. A guy in my research group did not balance the rotor properly once. The rotor flew blasted through the housing and ripped a 20 foot gash along a concrete wall. That was before there were balancing checks on these machines.

Rather Hollande than Le Pen....

Nonsense. Lufthansa and GermanWings both have excellent maintenance records. If you would know what you are talking about, you would have mentioned that low-cost carriers cut costs through secondary-hub contracts and service cuts, but never maintenance. Actually low-cost carriers usually have the newest planes.

Usually low cost carriers have the newest planes. They purchase them new and use them for a short while to sell them on before maintenance costs increase. The way they lower costs is not by skimping on the planes, but on service and by flying to and from secondary hubs. In addition high volume low-cost carriers such…

Chemistry? It's a load of scripted and rehearsed bollocks. There is nothing natural about anything of the latest episodes. You could give me the script and put me in the studio and I would have the same kind of rehearsed chemistry with Clarkson et al.
