The Moon constitutes a fine colony for Her Majesty. My only hope is that the probe will be self-replicating and speaking plain English. The British are ridiculously good at drilling.

But it was too late. Philae has landed to the comet.

Actually watching the live Rosetta event from Darmstadt. And I am about to drink for the success of this mission right now. Still can't believe it happened. SO much work, 10 years of work. This is how international large scale co-opera

I was born in one of those parts. I can compare. And I am very glad to see that the EU is capable of space missions of such magnitude.

Yeah, m8. With Musk to Mars!

Because taxpayers are able to pay that much taxes today, because Newton and Leibnitz were playing toys like that some time ago.

It really is mind blowing. The degree of intergovernmental co-operatoin is incredible. The lander electronics has Hungarian know how, brought there by Hungarian scientists. Radiation-protected processors are American. The whole thing is sup

You won't believe how much attention the EU gives to poverty issues. This is why there are no many poor people in the EU.

This is huge. In both technical and political ways. And bringing all the details into live online event is twice as huge. I just watched the guy reporting the unsuccessful initial anchoring of the probe, and I felt so happy that I could see

Donated few bucks. I encourage everyone to do more than me. Lads, this tiny bit of freedom is in your hands. Please do the proper thing.

This is just in time. When everyone but the clergy forgot how to read those, they are putting 'em online. I especially like Old Slavonic ones, where notation for numbers is purely alphabetical with tilde. A+B is not boolean there. It r

I always wondered what a fantastic resale value Apple gear has and always had.

That's easy! Inequality matters until some people are more equal than the others.

Unfortunately, Apple is always right and in this case you cannot even help yourself, like Apple hardware consumers do in Apple discussion forums. This is indeed soft and smoky dead end for many businesses.

A lot of that was once at AEMMA site, but long gone. I am glad many titles are back again.

I cheated it from Russia. UKIP is not my political fav.

Ponzi 2.0? I can't see any reference to domain mapping, migration of the existing websites and heck, links to existing websites on "the grid". UPD: multi language support, hey, I want Hebrew/Arabic dual-language e-commer

It worked from the UK IP for me, but not from the US one. Anyway - returned 502 after request.

In 1886, if memory serves, Dmitry Mendeleev, the father of modern chemistry, set limits to growth of Russian big cities to 50 years. Because he saw no solution to the horse poo collection and storage problem. He thought streets in 50 years

Quite the contrary, Russians are very much alive. They won the WW2, but lost the Cold War. It all led to shrinking the nation from 250mln people to 130mln (less than Nigeria). But Russians never lived that well, like nowadays. I saw it with

The guy just bought the wrong phone. Nokia 1100 could save him a lot of money and bring a life changing experience - the monochrome screen! I kid you not. And it has superior battery life.

Upvoting this for the beautiful storytelling of the true craftsman. However, FF Franziska definitely lacks Cyrillic glyphs.

For the bears this company will supply intrastomach vacuum feeder, once supplied from the salmon cannon, it will fire every fourth salmon directly into bear's guts.

This device in its usefulness reminds me the squid gun of the infamous Vector superhero from Despicable Me. Normal people build cascades around dams for salmon. Once built these require zero maintenance.

I upvote this. Especially the Wine option. IMHO it should be advertised that "You can run Windows programs on Linux by using Wine".

Soviet probes were not just attempting. In fact these were the only ones which delivered lunar soil to the mankind for research. Almost everything we know about the Moon geology is from success of the Luna robots. The author is very ignoran

You should really know how the soil and weather works before starting to farm. Otherwise you will end as a seasonal worker.

So Python is the new BASIC. Being widely introduced in the universities, could be the mark of ageing and obsoleteness. Since the university is normally teaching something very irrelevant to the real life, shouldn't the student look aro

Yup. I like your analogy about the cable junction.
