QuantumGPerhaps so many people are ignorant of space, and physics, because it hurts too much to read stupid comments like these http://t.co/jbPVOae03:12
streetyThe idea of strapping a rocket to the ISS and launching it into higher orbits / lunar orbits / deep space is "interesting"03:42
foucistQuantumG: i only see one comment regarding sending ISS off into space lol03:45
-!- augur [~augur@129.2.129.32] has joined ##hplusroadmap03:45
QuantumGthere's sooo much stupidity in just about every comment03:45
QuantumGI mean, even the *story* is stupid.03:45
foucistQuantumG: well you're a stupid twat for reading it and getting all uppity about it :)04:01
QuantumGgo fuck yourself04:02
streetyThe story seems to be entirely factual, what's stupid about it?04:07
QuantumGlet's put it this way.. if I asked you when the next Presidential election is and then went on to report it as news, would you think that maybe I was a little ignorant of the political process?04:14
streetyI'm not sure that's an entirely fair analogy.  This is more a news story about how the next presidential election is to be run . . . a roll out of electronic voting for example04:17
streetyWe could probably assume that the ISS would be eventually de-orbited but the details are news.  This story is certainly thin on details but it does hint that the time between abandoning and de-orbiting probably isn't going to be all that long04:19
QuantumGexcept that they're reporting details that were announced 2 years ago.. it's only news because a Russian said it in an interview and they thought he was saying something new04:19
streetyokay well I and likely millions of others missed the earlier announcement04:21
streetyor perhaps saw and later forgot about it04:21
QuantumGif you were a journalist and you thought you had learned something new about the space program, would you maybe.. I don't know.. call the public affairs office of NASA and confirm it?  I just have an unrealistic expectation of journalism I know.04:23
QuantumGand ya know, when a story that isn't a story and has an obvious subtext is posted on Slashdot, I once again discover that it isn't the Slashdot I once knew.. :(04:26
streetysure it would be nice to see some indication that this has been discussed for a while but I still think to call it stupid is a little OTT04:44

stragesso I'm embarking on an experiment.  I have a research colleague exactly 12 hours from where I am.  My plan is to do a braindump of everything I worked on for the day in an e-mail so that he gets it when he wakes up and have him do the same, so there's near constant work being done on a given topic.06:38

AlonzoTGOf course they are! They don't talk about it that much these days because it generates a backlash from people such as myself but the assumption underlying everything they do is that everyone will be uploaded very soon after the singularity.12:13
AlonzoTGTry to find even one of them who will tell you that's not true!12:14
kanzureno they believe everyone will be *dead* very soon after the singularity with some high probability12:30
