Comment on: The University of California (UC), Davis scientists are inventing a prototype for an ‘anti-solar panels’ that would work opposite to a classic solar panel.
I suspect that these would work best in desert climates since they use thermoradiative cooling.

Except that instead of uneducated Euros we have masses of angry, entitled blacks being displaced. They can't and won't adapt. We'll be forced to take care of them. Any idea how?

Comment on: Is poal.co just a fork of voat's code?
Putt's justification was that closing the source made it safer since apparently the bad actors were running the github source against code scanners to find vulnerabilities. I disagree but it wasn't my call.

Comment on: Is poal.co just a fork of voat's code?
Yeah, I hear you but it became a matter of self defense. When you allow people to say whatever they like it's bound to piss some people off. Voat had an impressive record of staying up and keeping its data safe considering its shoe string budget. Am I disappointed? Sure. Do I blame Putt? Nah, that'd be like blaming the rape victim. I blame the faggots that can't stand the idea that somebody out there is allowed to be vocal about disdaining them.

Voat started open source and .net framework, converted to .net core thanks to hard work from the community and then went closed source.

Comment on: Virgin Hyperloop completes its first test with actual passengers
If it's a thing before I'm an old man I'll be impressed. There's a lot that goes into the technology and the legal/planning aspects can't be over emphasized. If something does go wrong, can you imagine the catastrophic damage to the immediate area from all of that kinetic energy? I hope to be eating my words but I have my doubts.
