Neil Degrasse Tyson answers a 2nd grader's amazing question

poolcleaner says...

>> ^criticalthud:

in reality, we're ultimately just guessing.


Yes, ultimately (in reality) everything is JUST a guess -- or, if you prefer, guessing. And I emphasize GUESS because that's all it is. Good work (and FUCK the sarcasm button. In this case, I emphasize FUCK because I don't give it out very often.). t('o't)

At 80mph How Long Does It Take To Go 80 Miles?

csnel3 says...

This guy will have to resort to jackin off for the next 5 weeks, at, just a guess, one hundred miles an hour, for maybe 5 minutes, twice a day. Now thats some tough math, or if he wasnt such a jackass , he could ask his girlfriend to work it out.

Visual Effects In Movies: The Green Screen

spoco2 says...

The ones that amaze me are the ones you'd just never guess they would need to do as greenscreen. The simple little street sections where it's obviously just more expensive to close off a bit of street and handle all of that than to do it on the backlot and add it in later.

Amazing.

Texas Female Legislators Get Angry on the House floor

Januari says...

Good'ol boys will always be i'm sorry to say... see above comment as a demonstration. Anyone want to take a wild guess which of the parties were represented by the flyers or the woman... come on... just one guess I'm sure ya'll know.

God does exist. Testimony from an ex-atheist:

Ryjkyj says...

Wrong answer Shiny. You're supposed to say that God IS nothing... and EVERYTHING. (big booming voice) THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA!!!

Sorry, I had to make that joke.

And I'm sorry I misunderstood. But you did say literally that, "the universe was created from nothing". But we're still left with the idea that either the universe just popped into existence, has always existed or was created by something that has always existed. Now, the first two of those options are suggestions, even where Dawkins is concerned. The third however, you're positing as fact. All three seem just as irrational as any other. In fact, when I think about it, the third sounds just a little more unlikely considering that the first two include only one element: the universe, which we can see. And the other involves two, the universe we can see and an immortal god that we can't.

And I'd just like to clarify: it IS that physics breaks down right before the theoretical singularity. We don't know that time and space didn't exist before then because we can't describe what was going on based on observation. For all we know, they did exist, but that's the point, we don't know. At this point it's all just a guess. And that includes, by the way, whether or not the universe began there. It certainly might have, but it just as certainly might not have. Or it might (oh no, here we go again) NOT be the only universe out there.

Oh, and I only mentioned Georges Lemaitre because of what you said earlier about satan having his hand in the affairs of the church. But he was a scientist too, so I understand if you use his theory to back up your own.

Truckchase (Member Profile)

I think you're on to something there. Just a guess, but I bet you deleted all of the "</em>" at the end of the quoted text. That might screw up how the resulting html is interpreted by the system. That's a pretty significant bug that @lucky760 should be aware of. I think a few test cases should figure that out. I unchecked private so lucky might see this. I'm too tired (and loaded) at the moment to verify, but I'll follow up this weekend.

In reply to this comment by Truckchase:
Would it have anything to do with having deleted the latter embed code (my original quote) in the quote HTML that came up? Perhaps that could cause the post target to get screwed up somehow? I'm pretty sure I posted by clicking "Profile Reply" under your post on my profile, which if I'm understanding right that should still be posted to your profile correct?

In reply to this comment by jonny:
ummm.... that's your own profile you replied to.
In all seriousness, I think we need to do something about that. It's really amazing how many members reply to comments on their own profile. There is clearly something counter-intuitive about it.

As for dupe finding, I wouldn't ever rely on the possible dupes provided after filling out the submit video form. It's always best to do one or two quick searches with a significant word or phrase first. You'll still hit a dupe every once in a while, because the original was never tagged or titled intelligently, but it will happen a lot less often.

In reply to this comment by Truckchase:
>> ^jonny:

The five "possible dupes" on the confirm submission page are generated strictly from tags, I think. Your submission didn't have any tags in common with the original.

Ahh that makes sense, I'll be more careful. /me thanks you sir!

Ron Paul Opposes Patriot Act on the House Floor

bareboards2 says...

I doubt he actually believes that -- I think he is forestalling the argument that some believe we ARE safer. That's just my guess though.


>> ^entr0py:

I'm really surprised Ron Paul actually thinks that policies like the patriot act make us safer, even if he thinks it's not worth it. Policies like warrantless wiretapping, extraordinary rendition, water torture and unlimited "detention" without trial have only made us into villains. Much of the world's outrage at our behavior is justified, and some of that rage will translate into further attacks.

A Christmas Message From Bill Maher

bareboards2 says...

Getting paid is not the same as buying shit. Lots of shit. I don't know if he is an uber-consumer, however I suspect he doesn't scream in delight over a new sweater. Or twelve.

Just a guess.



>> ^direpickle:

Yeeeeeah, Bill Maher has a net worth of $23 million, according to the intertubes.

The Creaking Tree String Quartet - Little Green Men

Enzoblue says...

A great live performance on a moving streetcar in Toronto! I can't figure out how the rest of the riders seem so ambivalent though.



There's a difference between a 'captive' audience and one that's held hostage. Maybe they didn't appreciate music they can't walk away from. Just a guess.
