one can debate the solar panels - but this seems like a hands-down defeat. |

re: nuke thread: decimation has it. nobody (save possibly pakistan) fields pure fission warheads today. not even for the tiny 'dial-a-yield' things fashionable in usa & ru. too 'dirty' and not considerably cheaper than 2-stage affair |

decimation |
at any rate, as I wrote later, it seems that the actual amount of U in the ground isn't really fully known |
| 00:36 |
asciilifeform |
the interesting thing is, as i pointed out in link, 1) kinetics (how quickly energy is delivered) matter far more than thermodynamics (how much is delivered) |
| 00:36 |
decimation |
yeah, 8 mm of water vaporization would zing if delivered in a few microseconds |
| 00:37 |

2) not only flesh but infrastructure - are fragile. 'tsar bomba' knocked out power lines for many km despite being tested far from civilization (emp by zipping charged particles through van allen belt, a well-understood effect.) picture just one of these over, e.g., new york |

MPEx did pioneer many things in Bitcoin derivatives and they deserve credit for that. However, I find it unlikely that an exchange with such a high up-front fee just to participate will ever find mainstream acceptance. |

That depends on the function you are going for. SSL doesn't serve as a way to verify each party and obviously has some contentious things going on with cert authorities. |

'groupbuy' implies nothing about proportions. |

consider autonomous submarines (torpedo-sized) alternatively. far easier to hide in the ocean, esp. if you're small, electric, and in no hurry whatsoever - than in the air. |

(can eject payload on quadchopper once reach enemy shore, yes) |

submarine has the virtue of not falling down and exploding if it runs out of juice |
