It was dumb fun. Lots of groan-worthy technobabble (the Deepak Chopra platitude generator makes more sense talking about quantum mechanics), pretty good action sequences, the usual "let the villain...

Or... When you buy a gun, you register the serial number. You are liable for anything done with that gun until it is sold and re-registered, so if a crime is committed you're liable. If it's stolen...

Not to mention that the Empire is depicted as a miserable hellhole, largely due to the theocratic authoritarian government. "Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment." -some excessively...

That's pretty obviously been the goal all along for the energy companies. Deny until it's too ate, then throw up their hands and say it's too late to bother changing. Keep those quarterly profits up!

They've been shutting the reactors down over the last few days. Response time makes a huge difference compared to Fukushima. A shut-down reactor doesn't need active cooling, so even if the pumps get...

Yet another 2nd Law violation debunked. Who woulda' thunk?

Nazis ⊊ Fascists ⊊ Authoritarians ⊊ Evil fuckers.

Note the order of the proper subset relations. There are plenty of evil fuckers who aren't authoritarians, and not all authoritarians are...

It's appropriate, actually. The US systematically violates human rights, both in prisons and in the use of torture. We don't deserve to be on the HRC. Neither do some...

Not without a direction specified. 15 kts is just a magnitude, and thus a speed.

I'm not an aeronautics engineer, and so this is a massive WAG. I suspect it's to provide a slightly greater range on the angle the thrust vectoring can get to for yaw. It could also be structural /...

Traveling wave tubes are still pretty awesome. Much higher power handling capability for a given amount of cooling than transistor amplifiers (at high frequency, of course). As are photomultiplier...

No one ever accused Xeno of being smart.

The Librarian would be very disappointed in you. Also angry. Humans are great apes, not monkeys. There's a difference. Do not anger the orangutan, for he will twist your head off.

Action movies are pretty much all formulaic. That's pretty much the point: have fun fight scenes with a "plot" to provide an excuse for why there's fighting. If you want intellectual stimulation you...

In the comics apparently the soul gem contains the souls of everyone it kills. Adam Warlock undoes the kiling, and shows Thanos that he's always allowed himself to be defeated because he knows he's...

Is Duckslayer trying to get a job in the Trump administration? He's certainly a cabinet-level poster.

Lithium isn't exactly rare. It's expensive to mine cleanly, but pretty common. It's more common than lead & tin.
