You guys, Anthrax Live is pretty fucking awesome! Their shows can get loud, but they play all... oh, not the band. Never mind.

So, what you're saying is that if someone builds a drone with RF shields on their motors, with hyper-quiet rotors, GPS only autonomous nav, and perhaps an invisibility cloak system they too can evade the drone-police? Thank you, good sers!
SourceForge, the code repository site owned by Slashdot Media, has apparently seized control of the account hosting GIMP for Windows on the service, according to e-mails and discussions amongst members of the GIMP community—locking out GIMP's lead Windows developer. And now anyone downloading the Windows version of the open source image editing tool from SourceForge gets the software wrapped in an installer replete with advertisements.
Great Cloud Bubble you got there. When these site go under, BOOM, cheap rack hardware.
Seriously, I stand to make lots of money doing work for these places, so go on ahead and build out those clouds! I'll find new work when the hype is over. No prob.
Go deny science on some other web site, dufus
NDGT is awesome, if you could not "find" something to back up your ignorant stance we're not all that surprised. Studying the cosmos and doing some related science IS being an astrophysicist. Did he need to discover some comets or asteroids and get them named after him to reach the "high bar" in your own mind?
"freedoms that we used to have"? Oh, now I get it. You're still angry with the black man being president. What a fucking idiot you are, guy. Get reading some science books and DO something with your fucking life other than to bitch about a great nation that is filled with cool services that you probably do not take advantage of, or better yet claim "those other people are stealing your benefits!" Fucking grow the fuck up, take responsibility for the fucking mess that is your life and read some fucking books other than the bible for once in your miserable existence. You are not fit to smell NDGT's shit. You fucking ignorant asswipe.
Fucking science deniers are the cancer of our great nation and our world. Fucking backwards dipshits with zero info want to rework science to fit their fucked up views. What a sad bunch of assholes. Proper science is self-correcting and reproducible via peer studies. Fake science is easily discounted. But don't tell these asshats that. A corn-spiracy passes as fact with this lot. Fucking impossible to set them straight because they failed to learn the first time around.
Bullshit, guy. China is just got it together to get to the moon in 2013; fucking 40 YEARS later and without any live crew (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landing#Chang.27e_3_.28China.29)!
And they did that with the many plans they stole to build their knock-off rocket tech. Get a clue before you spew, buddy.
You might want to look up this while you're getting new clues: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M...
Now, tell us again why getting to the moon 40 years late is "racing ahead"? Idiot.
We already do, if you count stealing business and science data "collaborating." In most other accounts China is a hotbed for faked scientific information gathering. Every single "new science discovery" from China is just some fake data popped up by a corrupt government and their tightly controlled media.
According to investigators, Grishin, Nikolayev and Gudkova in 2011 were tasked with installing the angular rate sensors on the Proton rocket that are responsible for yaw control. "As a result of their violation of technical discipline envisaged by engineering and technological documentation, these sensors were installed incorrectly / at 180 degrees from their correct position/," Markin said.
The installation error accounted for the vehicle's wild trajectory, causing its crash and destruction. During the investigation, Grishin and Nikolayev partly admitted their guilt in committing the crime, he said.
In his turn, Nasibulin guided by the fact that over a long time no violations had been found during the installation process and also amid the job cuts withdrew the control operation from a respective list. He did not monitor the process and the sensors were installed without the due control.
Note that they didn't sabotage anything intentionally. They only did bad work. In the U.S. such incompetence would certainly get them fired, but no one would dream of prosecuting them under these circumstances. It appears that Putin's government has decided to make them scapegoats and an example to everyone else: Do your work right or else!
Along these lines, Russian government officials have also indicated they are considering imposing fines on manufacturers for any future failures or delays.
Both the criminal indictments and the fines would surely work to prevent further disasters. They will also work very effectively in preventing any risk-taking or innovation from anyone. Who wants to build something new and untested if there is a strong possibility its failure will get you in prison?
Do not expect much creativity from the Russian aerospace industry in the coming years.
Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
