+1 - I worked there in the past, you are correct about the discount.

That is all.

But i'm very happy with findings like these, if this gets us any closer to understanding the soup, maybe we can figure out
the math for what happens inside the event horizon of a black hole. That will be a revolution. (har)

*effects, ahem, no, i've not smoked anything, and i bet you can't prove it!

You take a few puffs and you're high, maybe you take only one, but you're high just the same.

Through years of dealing with marijuana users (and having been one myself), I've not seen it to be
about the amount, but rather the quality. I've been amongst those to smoke for hours consecutively, and never get
as high as i was up until the first contact set in.

I have no links, anyone chime in here, these are my own
personal experiences.

I believe measuring this will be difficult, aside from looking for how red/closed/open the
individuals eyes are, yet different strains produce different affects...

IANAPP, but have been a = average musician for a while, and from what i gather from TFA, they're creating a resonance that "maximizes the loss of electrons in a sample". It looks to me as if they've found a "harmonic" frequency for a given Element, that can either be used to coerce electrons out, or avoid as they need. I used all those words broadly, i'm just trying to picture it. The idea of Quanta is something that has always had me going in circles. Max Planck Ftw.

Or Borderlands Transmitted Disease, i've been wary not to go screwing around with the public, shit's rough nowadays.

Mod parent up "*this"

5 Minutes and no takers?

I don't doubt that, i think he's just leaving out details... how much of the wealth of our country is held by that 5%? 60%?

Something smells fishy here, smelled like that 4 years ago too.

20,000 leagues under the sea?

If you're gonna use THAT much energy, and plan to (are able to) fire more than once, why not just nuke it from orbit?

All funnies aside, seriously though, i love the idea of a rail gun, but all the energy needed to use it once would make it
only reasonably useful if it was MASSIVE, and in an extinction level event.

In my country, we have silos FILLED with conventional arms that are more efficient, and through their development, maintenance and storage,
have a significant bit of our economy locked up. (In the US we need everything more than we need more weapons imo, use it for science :)

No, the Real ones, not TFA.

After a line like this there needs to be math, lots of math, it's the whole "extraordinary claims require..." bit.

I'm probably the layman here (i still have some faith in /. apparently), but i thought this was about testing our ability to confirm relativity (warp up space-time), rather than breaking it (FTLT, that would be excellent if we had infinite energy, if so we would have infinite time so the energy would be negligible?)

Stuff like this is the reason i frequent Slashdot.
