I agree, the radioactive anthrax bomb built to kill people is completely neutral because it's a technology. *Amazing* tool! I use the radioactive anthrax bomb every day, and I only get a bit of radioactive anthrax all over everything. I'm running a conference, Radioactive Anthrax Bombs For Good, promoting how it's being used for a lot of good! Sponsored by OpenRadioActiveAnthrax, a California nonprofit

@davidgerard we have to make a sacrifice to eventually live in a world where radioactive anthrax bombs solve climate change
@davidgerard you joke but project plowshare was a whole thing
@davidgerard If you think that is funny, check out the neutrino bomb. Some wise guy wrote a tongue-in-cheek article about it, pointing out that shielding would be futile. As the story goes, some senator caught wind of it and held up the NSF budget for an explanation of why we weren't developing it. The problem was then one of telling the senator he'd been had without telling him he'd been had: senators can have fragile egos.
@davidgerard radioactive anthrax bomb would be a killer band name though.
@davidgerard radioactive anthrax bombs don't kill. Physics do.
@davidgerard Wouldn’t the radioactivity kill the anthrax? In a similar way in which the artificial kills the intelligence?
@davidgerard wait until they implement the radioactive anthrax bomb on the radioactive anthrax blockchain for a smart chain. The chain does the computation.
@davidgerard the UK government have just pledged to add Radioactive Anthrax to everything
@pikesley Peter Kyle does all his ministerial work with radioactive anthrax
The proper amount of radioisotopes to stuff up your ass is "none". Just ask Cory Doctorow.
@davidgerard promoting responsible use of radioactive anthrax is important. I see people just wanting to add radioactive anthrax to everything. This is a tool which could be used for the betterment of humanity, and I just see billionaires thinking they can add it to toothpaste or some frivolous item like watch faces.
We already have radium for that, why use an inferior product
