Using a dirty bomb to trigger an overreaction in your enemy and use that overreaction to get more allys is a double edged-sword, really. Trading blows using conventional and makeshift bombs is one thing, but using a dirty "nuclear" device is clearly crossing a line. That could provide the perfect casus belli and warrant an invasion, even in the eyes of those would could side with Daesh in the first place, by virtue of the same mechanism that makes people go nuts when they hear the words "dirty bomb"

For the record, the operators at Chernobyl are not completely responsible for what happened, the RBMK reactor had serious design flaws, and the facility lacked containement.

Ah no, damn, I was talking about the second one, which you clearly stated was old.... stupid me.

Dude, that first video is accelerated 50 times!

That can be very serious, especially in children. My son has a mild hyperphenylalaninemia, which could severely impair his neuronal development if untreated. Well, there is no treatment in the strict sense, appart from thightly controlling his phenylalanine levels and since this amino acid is found in proteins, that can get tricky. One thing's for sure though, aspartame is completely prohibited.

About 80% of France's electrical energy comes from nuclear power plants, with fossil at under 10%. So while power plants do technically emit as a whole, the problem is largely mitigated. Now, there's nuclear waste.

25k USD already sounds expensive to me. In my country (France) one can graduate from a very good private school for about 15k EUR (and that's a 5 year course). Or stick to the public university and merely pay a ~500 EUR fee per year, including healthcare (but excluding books of course). Then again, the US has higher ranking universities (though I'd like to see a fair comparison between average graduates from an employer's standpoint)

Most haven't seen Nietzsche's ass.

Even the name sounds cheesy. The tech behind all this is probably nothing to scoff at, but the looks are just not what I used to like about Ferrari. I'll have a 250 GTO over this anyday (yeah that's more than 10 times the price, I know)

Not at all. A papercraft Moon base would have been awesome IMO.

And still no Captain Piccard jokes. You know, I'm really getting worried about you, Slashdot.

Yet, among western countries there's massive support for Tibet, which, last time I checked, was a theocracy.

Is the nature of the regime REALLY the ONLY problem here?

That's actually pretty good if you're in the south of France.

If you're in Paris, "Peek-pie" will do.

Oh God,

Nevermind, I found out on my own. Damn it.
