Re:Is There More to Cold Fusion Than Failure and Fraud? on Friday October 30, 2026 @05:07PM (#50310147)
George Musser takes the credit.
Nothing will change, except for the whistleblowers who will be killed.
... while companies post record profits. we all know what is happening.
So, he lied the first time?

  What’s actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people. 

  The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches.

Read elon's answer on twitter, it's infuriating.
Re:Reforming English Spelling on Friday October 23, 2026 @12:22PM (#50211478)
Yep.

  For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.

  Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivli.

He is right: it's easy to break a complex system than to build a complex system.

But impeachment and removal from office would be a good start.

We need to investigate DOJ for not following the law. Release the Epstein files.

They need to add a touchscreen and menu to access the fire extinguisher, probably with auto-subscription. Then all will be well.
Super! Not easy to select or center on a planet though.

Re:Toyota is finally taking its best-seller electric on Thursday September 24, 2026 @11:21PM (#49839838)
This is exactly right. 2026 Nissan LEAF is at 30k point, once it drops down to 20-25 it's over for internal combustion cars.
That's how you double profits, indeed.

At some point the customer base is going to shrink, especially when the AI slop hits the market, right?

It means only one thing - the company is going down.

A standard Japanese EV station wagon beats pretty much any Porsche at fraction of the price.

Relative to high IQ of the Stable Genius, it is.
