If you want to make a really dramatic movie, have it survive in giant rock fragments knocked into orbit around the sun when the Chicxulub meteor struck the Earth. The inside would hopefully remain very cold and shielded from external radati

Yes, I think the use of the term "invented" as well as the idea that the invention was unfairly copied are a bit disingenuous. Credit where credit is due. Pulling together the different technologies and making them into a manufact

It's also worth noting that biological photosynthesis is very inefficient. A human consumes on average about 150 watts. The earth gets about 1400 watts of sunlight per square meter. It's not completely impossible to one day have b

You had me in the first half, but your conclusion confuses me. This UFC level of response is what happens when other researchers smell blood in the water. It's the exact opposite of blind belief. Similar but less interested to people o

I realize it's just an EDID EEPROM so if it gets hosed, it's not a big deal, but it still gives me a not good feeling to have a bash script blindly programming it. It's also possible to do this by probing with the appropriate
