Nuclear isn't clean by any stretch
*sigh*
Actually modern nuclear IS relatively clean and can process existing nuclear waste, thereby making the world *less* irradiated.

Why does Pluto look brownish? Is this false colour, or would it really look that way to the human eye? Wikipedia says the surface is 98% nitrogen ice, which seems to be basically white, so wouldn't one expect it to look white?
As far as I can tell, DuckDuckGo is a private company and so not vulnerable to a hostile takeover. If they were, it would kind of defeat their purpose. The second they got bought out by the likes of Apple, privacy would go down the shitter.
IKR? Looks like you can do any fucked up test you want on mice. We wouldn't allow this with cats or monkeys or the precious homo sapiens.
Isn't TRIM support disabled by default in Linux? They must have set the "discard" mount option.
I can believe you, the way Skype does things.
It's my biggest criticism of Skype - you have the "All" list which pretty much shows everyone you've ever talked with on there and grows massive. And then you hav the groups. What you DON'T have is an "Ungrouped" category, which is desperately needed. What am I meant to do, go through "All" and remember who I haven't grouped??
That's news to me. They host their binaries in various locations, and their source code on Github.
Why store "waste" when you can process it in a fast breeder reactor? It's totally the wrong strategy.
So let's build IFRs then. Wasn't their research cancelled by the Clinton administration to "send a signal"? An anti-science one, presumably.
Learning to code is like learning a second language.
As someone who knows (with varying degrees of proficiency) English, French, C#, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, and VB.NET... no it isn't. Human languages are WAY harder to learn, both in terms of having far more information, and in terms of being highly irregular and unpredictable (and that's not to start on trying to understand people pronouncing things quickly and slurredly). I'm still crappy at French after 15 years, but I've learned several programming languages to a decent degree, even as an adult.
Labour might consider it now. With the probably long-term loss of Scotland, FPTP doesn't really give them much benefit over proportional representation, but it benefits the Tories a lot.
Cameron has a plan to get us out of Europe? Seemed like he wanted to keep us in to me.
I don't have any good solutions
How about not continuing with the dictatorial oligarchy in the US that right now passes for a democracy?
Sadly due to a very lousy school system in the US many Christians simply can not understand their own faith. They get suckered in by all kinds of nonsense sects that offer teachings about 100% opposite of what Christ asked of us.
So what if Christ had asked people to believe in creationism? Would that make it any more valid?
Is there actually a way for US businesses to prevent themselves from hostile takeover? Like, can they be "private limited companies" and just refuse to merge? If so, I think these guys should tell EA to fuck off, on principle.
Without life, Biology itself would be impossible.
