- kingo123, on 08/01/2008, -1/+234I have my crowbar ready for any unforeseen consequences
- DeskFlyer, on 08/01/2008, -1/+83This is the most badass device ever constructed.
- perhapsimcrazy, on 08/01/2008, -0/+77Probably some of the coolest images I have ever seen
Science is an awesome thing - DeskFlyer, on 08/01/2008, -1/+72Tell your mother I love her too.
- dcbebop, on 08/02/2008, -1/+57Well worth it for the chance to unlock some physics secrets.
- TheStrongForce, on 08/01/2008, -5/+58Some people complain about the costs of building the device...I cannot imagine the cost of cooling all those magnets with liquid helium. At 500 US dollars for 100 liters, you can be sure that this is going to be the most expensive to build and operate science project that man has ever dreamed of.
- geoken, on 08/01/2008, -6/+59Hopefully the universe doesn't implode. (fingers crossed)
- beng123, on 08/02/2008, -14/+62but will it run Crysis?
- Alucard010, on 08/01/2008, -12/+58I, for one, welcome our black hole overlord.
- Veni_Vidi_Vici, on 08/02/2008, -2/+40God I wish we could favorite comments.
- lololwut, on 08/02/2008, -12/+49It probably won't run Crysis, though.
- Jegzzy, on 08/01/2008, -1/+35She says to pass on to you, that in the next life your small penis isn't such a big deal.
- fooken, on 10/01/2009, -3/+30Out of this world!
- browwiw, on 08/02/2008, -0/+26http://www.toothpastefordinner.com/070708/turn-off ...
- Jegzzy, on 08/01/2008, -6/+32Tell my mother, I love her :-(

- conblex, on 08/02/2008, -0/+22This is the kind of things we need to be spending billions of dollars on. Not war.
this kinda technology is the ones thats gonna bring us into space. - Bkaufman, on 08/02/2008, -0/+21I'm pretty libertarian, but I am fine with our government spending money to fund science. Emphasizing science and math are the keys to continue our prosperity.
- Wootstapler, on 08/02/2008, -0/+21THERE'S ***** SCIENCE EVERYWHERE!
- Sornos, on 08/02/2008, -0/+18Trivia: The Mist (short story by Steven King) inspired Half-Life!
- Freps, on 08/02/2008, -2/+19Even bigger news is the 10,000x faster-than-the-Internet connection that will be used to transfer the data to research centers around the world.

The Grid will be our connection to the world in the next 5-10 years. - inactive, on 08/02/2008, -2/+19my large hardon is ready for colliding
- drato, on 08/02/2008, -1/+17Actually, it's designed to run Half Life 3.
- inactive, on 08/02/2008, -1/+16What did she say about me?
- PintSki, on 08/02/2008, -0/+15but it will give you a ping of -250 with the network they have :D
- maxiscool, on 08/02/2008, -1/+15dugg for one page
- Narishma, on 08/02/2008, -0/+14Looks like something from Black Mesa. They should look out for a resonance cascade when they start the experiment.
- inactive, on 08/02/2008, -0/+14The Switzerland particles will remain neutral while the French particles retreat and surrender. I'm waiting for the South African Collider The Long Back Mamba to give Hadron Collider a serious complex.
- nates, on 08/02/2008, -1/+14Cost of the LHC: Around $6 billion
Cost of the Iraq war, per month: $12 billion
Think of what we could do with the money we're incinerating in Iraq. Truly a crime against humanity. - DeskFlyer, on 08/01/2008, -1/+14You could have compiled all of your questions in one post you know. ;)
- RadioFreeOpium, on 08/02/2008, -4/+17oh come on don't digg him down, it had to be said. and it was kind of funny this time
- mwosh, on 08/02/2008, -0/+13Yeah! All they have to do is build the collider at a slight slope, then run water through it.
AWESOME water slide. - diggproof, on 08/02/2008, -0/+13Don't take the elevator
- frelk, on 08/02/2008, -2/+14The probability of a black hole forming at LHC and destroying the world is smaller than Planck's constant. It's more likely that monkeys will fly out of Wayne Campbell's butt at the exact same moment that Paris Hilton proves the Riemann Hypothesis
- mountvale, on 08/02/2008, -0/+12Radio Shack.
- inactive, on 08/02/2008, -0/+12 /> Great giant toroid endcap magnet would buy again / > A++
- perhapsimcrazy, on 08/02/2008, -1/+13I hear crack cocaine is bad for you
- mountvale, on 08/02/2008, -0/+11And I thought my neon-blue LED-fan heatsink was cool.
- VivaCalligula, on 08/02/2008, -1/+12Speaking of spending money... all that expensive equipment and they couldn't afford a flat screen monitor for that girl in the server room?
- Sornos, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10Home Depot.
- Veni_Vidi_Vici, on 08/02/2008, -1/+11I don't. That's terrifying.
- sbazzle, on 08/01/2008, -1/+11When they throw the switch on this baby, I envision an Earth-melting light show unlike anything we've ever seen. I'll bring the popcorn!
- dood, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10She probably doesn't remember me. I don't think she even asked for my name.
- jp12380, on 08/02/2008, -1/+11Somebody call Gordon Freeman, now!
- roguewriter, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10Sorry, but so what? CERN got the funding, they used it to build the LHC, and in turn they intend to further our knowledge of physics and the basic principles of the universe itself. It's not like they sent you the bill. Quit whining about someone using money for something useful instead of another birthday party for Paris Hilton.
- mountvale, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10I don't care what Paris Hilton proves, as long as they don't let her near the collider.
I mean, I guess she would just get all trampy and sticky looking and roll around on it and try to sell me a Whopper.
As long as she doesn't press any buttons. - AlexWiggy, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10I'm having some major doubts;
4th picture: "Checks being carried out" all I see is 2 people relaxing on the job.
6th picture: That women clearly has 2 heads, they haven't even turned it on yet. - trickyt, on 08/02/2008, -0/+10I just finished reading Hyperion, and they talk about the Big Mistake of '08 where some team of scientists accidentally created a runaway blackhole that swallows the earth. :O
- Xantu, on 08/02/2008, -1/+10Dugg for the picture of the guy driving the cart-thing.
- splitsixty, on 08/01/2008, -1/+10So DO they have a gravity gun or not?
(looking at those pictures it seems like they could use one) -
