Female Train Conductor Leaves Mic On
>> ^Constitutional_Patriot:
I wonder what people's reactions would have been if the conductor was male...
It probably wouldn't have been as big of a deal since they would have only had to listen to it for two minutes.

^EDD
I wouldn't worry. This conductor knows how to cheer herself up
Female Train Conductor Leaves Mic On
Poor girl. I mean OK, she was fired, but hadn't she suffered enough in this->> ^kronosposeidon:
She wasn't masturbating. I just don't make any noise.
And I mean no offence, Quboid, but:
"Masterbation", n.
1. A common mispelling of "masturbation" used by retarded twelve year olds who are neglected by their parents and listen to Linkin' Park.
"Masterbating" is for pre-pubescent morons who don't know what "masturbation" is.
2. A karate teacher named Bation.
"Thank you for calming me down Master Bation!"
Marilyn Manson vs. Bill O'Reilly
I've had BillO's number for a while. He's still my favorite conductor of social experiments on VS.
He's Jane Goodall and we're all...
...well you get the picture.
A Physics Lecture at MIT -- Water Battery
Why did you downvote my comment ?
This has nothing to do with gravitational potential energy at all, its purely the interaction between positive and negatively charged water particles passing through a conductor to build up charge.
Zero kinetic / gravitational potential energy is converted, the meer useage of gravity is a neat way to get the water droplets to pass through the rings, but none of this energy is converted into electrostatic energy.
Edit: A more detailed description can be found here.

A Physics Lecture at MIT -- Water Battery
Close, but not quite.
Every atom has a tiny tiny charge associated with it.
This system is essentially a positive feedback capacitor, that takes advantage of the flux effect of charged particles (ie. an EM field) passing over a conductor, to slowly build up a charge in the system.
Once the charge is large enough, the random distribution of the charge within the system is what creates the diffusion of the water dropping through the buckets.
Once the charge is large enough, it overcomes the distance barrier between the two balls and redistributes the charge back into the water.
Its basically a van-de-graffe machine, only in a really novel way.
They are called Kelvin water droppers / batteries.
The Shocking Truth About Printer Ink (and Beowulf chat)
pure silver costs $6.67 per milliliter. Some ink is more expensive. And silver is the best electrical conductor of all the chemical elements. And diamond is the most common substance with a better thermal conductivity than silver.
Mozart - Requiem, Dies irae
That conductor reminds me of my uncle when the young'ins of the family turns up some dance music on the radio, and uncle's had a few shots for the holidays (lateral arm pumping action!).
Russian Red Army Choir - Kalinka Kalinka
LOL soldiers wearing wigs in dance frenzie meanwhile the ultra serious conductor is popping a vein on his forehead LOL
However, the song screeches to a halt on the slow parts. Someone needs to make a remix where it gets to have more of that crazy leg kicking dance timesssss!!!
Richard Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries"
Great performance.
Patton Oswalt had better take notice of the conductor, because that's exactly what he's going to look like in 30 years.

^ not obscure enough for ya', eh buddy?
s'ok. thanks to ox's new power-jammies,
this has a new home in *engineering.
and, in answer to the above:
>> ^ronin165:
>> ^sirex:
A magnet of that size is not going to do any harm to the hard drive.
correct, ronin.
it needs only a magnetic field the size a crappy refrigerator magnet generates.
and only for the moment you hit your power switch.
sirex should use his noggin before he tries pokin' holes.
>> ^southblvd:
What happens when you take the magnet away?
yeah, it'll stay on. ^Payback's answer was completely correct.
this is actually just creating a pre-switch, en route to your power switch, which has 'off' as the default state. holding a magnet there allows that gate to open, then you hit the real power switch, and the 'on' signal is allowed back to the mobo. you take the magnet away, and everything's groovy.
>> ^wax66:
Yeah, that'll stop anyone who doesn't know much about computers. It may be 4 EU to protect the thing, but it'd only cost 1 cent to bypass it (since pennies are such great conductors).
poke, poke, poke. some people just can't help pokin' holes.
wasn't meant to keep the KGB out, wax. just your kid brother or something.
>> ^DrPawn:
How about a password ?
yeah. those'll work too.

Inner Life of a Cell: Leukocyte
"Instead of power being generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, it's produced by the modial interaction if magneto reluctance and capacitive diractance."

Anyone who has a little bro who enjoys playing big bros' games when big bro isnt around would like this just fine.
Upvote duct tape ftw!
