Be Kind To The Future: Back To The Future vs Be Kind Rewind

Back to the Future (Sweded)

Back to the Future (Sweded)

The double pendulum gives an example of chaotic motion

swedishfriend says...

It is not a matter of just practicality. The frikken moon and sun would have to be in the exact same positions never mind the constantly shifting magnetic field of the earth. You would have to rewind all the vibrations in the universe to get the same motion when it goes on for that long with so many moments where either pendulum could go either way. Nature is soft and wave-like so there is no same spot one could start them at and the waves that we see as atoms will never be the same ever again so there is no same thing to line up the same. And you don't even have precise moments in time since movement and geography of nature is smooth and not step-like so you cannot even release the waves that make up the object at a certain time. In short: Too many variables in a system like this to reproduce it (it is cause and effect but causes that go back into infinity).

Homophobic Christian Whines About Getting Fired

L0cky says...

I believe, as a christian, that blah blah blah.

The moment you frame a statement in that way you're admitting that you don't actually believe what you're about to say, and are admitting that it's a characteristic of a contrived context of which you have chosen to follow. It's weak, and is specifying a source to lay blame if you happen to be wrong.

Rewind up and say I believe, as a reasonable human being, that blah blah, and see how it sounds then.

Story Of Government Spending:FDR to Present

braindonut says...

Yeah, I gotta agree... flashy graphics, little substance, horribly hard to digest... I'm gonna finish watching it now, but I'm 3/4 of the way through and sick of having to pause and rewind to see all the info.

Terribly done indeed.

Story Of Government Spending:FDR to Present

Nithern says...

While yes, this presentation does seem like a pro-conservative or pro-liberitarian promotion, it does a few things incorrectly:

A) The presentation is to the speed of the music, not to the spend of the human eye to translate concept in to something the brain understands. The music is great (if only to get it as a techno soundtrack somewhere..). There were a few times I either stopped th presenation, and thought on the history accuracy or rewinded to see it again.

B) It moves past Mr. Clinton quite quickly (which is bad for conservatives, as they hate Clinton). Before Mr. Obama, the previous 4 US presidents have increase the US debit from the 1.4 trillion during the Carter Administration (again, the sources do range in numbers) to 10+ trillion after Mr. Bush. So, if Clinton was in that group of four, and Reagan, Bush Sr and Bush Jr were in there; the which party should be held more accountable for spending? At 5:14 in the presentation, it does say that Clinton "Federal Deficit becomes Surplus". Actually not entirely true. The economists stated that under the Clinton Administration, if the 'plan' was followed for 2 additional years (1st 2 years of Bush Jr), the budget would be a surplus. Mr. Bush Jr, being the 'brilliant' and 'wise' man he was, surrounded himself with equally 'brilliant' and 'wise' men. Together, they gave Americans 3 Tax checks that effectively removed any chance of the deficit being made a surplus.

I found Democrats look long term, and Republicans, short term. Here was a great example of this effect in practice. We could have had the budget balanced THEN given tax breaks to remove the surplus down. This never happened. So while I hear conservatives/liberatians b*tching at Obama about how he spends the US money, never ONCE, do I hear them complain how republicans spent the money. Kind of hypocritical if you ask me.

C) All of this tries to ignore the other 90% of events and activites that were taking place across the country and world. Yes, it shows something here and there, but that's it! The Vietnam War effected a HUGE section of the population. The Iraq War, the Recssion, and Hurricane Katrina. This presenation glosses over things like this, even though they are huge events. (/start sarcasm) Oh, and September 11, 2001? That's right, it wasn't important from a finanical point of view...(/end sarcasm)

Brilliant Time-Rewind Effect During A Magic Act

ElJardinero says...

>> ^dannym3141:
^ I don't see the point in that comment.
It's not like he said "LOL HE DIDN'T REALLY DO IT GUIZ", he told us HOW the trick was done.


Maybe revealing how a magic trick was done is kind of douchey and youtubey? When nobody asked?

Especially when the video is right there for people to check it out for themselves if they want to.

I'm sorry that I made you look like "fucking youtube" dannym3141, I hope I didn't ruin any chances of you getting laid in the future.

The only thing I miss out on by fast forwarding through the commercials is the ads for new shows. I missed out on a few new shows that started over a year ago, so now I'm playing catch up.

I do pay attention to whatever I'm watching, knowing I can rewind if I miss something doesn't make me pay less attention to it. I'm just the opposite, if I need to do something that will take my attention away from the show, I pause it so I don't have to rewind it after I'm done.

If I have to use the bathroom or go to the kitchen or something, I can pause it and take my time. I don't miss having to rush to the bathroom and hope I get back before the commercial break is over.
