Seven Things You Should Know About Donald Trump and Iran

BSR says...

Trump naturally wants to be loved but he can't let that happen. In his heart everyone wants him for his money. He believes he can buy love and that's exactly the kind of love that keeps him unsatisfied without a clue as to why. Catch 22. Trapped behind his own wall. This is the reason why he needs so much attention. But, it never fills that void.


How the Alt-Right Trolls

entr0py says...

That was a good description of why that form of argument is successful, but the proposed solution seems unsatisfying. I mean, if you just shut down all contrary views by deleting the posts, banning the posters or ignoring them, it makes it seem like you're just trying to build a comfortable echo chamber. I feel like you've got to preserve the willingness to consider that you might be wrong, even when confronted with trolls.

Why It's Almost Impossible to Run a Two-Hour Marathon

oritteropo says...

I think the attempt itself counts as a test!

This article from the Atlantic talks a little about why the Kenyans make such great runners - https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2012/04/why-kenyans-make-such-great-runners-a-story-of-genes-and-cultures/256015/

There was certainly scope for the Wired vid to be much longer and more in-depth. They had an equally short and unsatisfying article about a journalist who trained for a 90 minute half marathon using the same training techniques the Kenyans use here - https://www.wired.com/2017/05/two-hour-marathon-nike-half-marathon/?mbid=synd_digg

Yes, by using both pacers and wind blockers, the Nike attempt wouldn't have counted as a world record. At one point it was considered that a sub-4 minute mile was scientifically impossible. The science here would be more reassuring if they talked about that fancy equation, and how it matches various real world runners very well. For example, runner A has a VO2 max of 60, and an efficiency of 95% of theoretical peak. It should be impossible for him to get below the equation's theoretical best time of 2:07, but the best in the world with those stats should get close. Science is all about building a model you think is representative of real life, then test it. I don't see any testing of the model here to prove its validity.

Mr. Plinkett Talks About Rogue One

Arnouth says...

Mr. Plinckett is right as usual. I watched it in IMAX 3D yesterday, but didn't feel immersed into the story all that much. While watching it I couldn't help but think that a panel of Disney marketing geniuses meticulously thought out what we wanted to see, to guess our expectations, more than the brain child of someone with a vision, with a true story to tell. The girl-that-every-girl-wants-to-be with great athletic prowess and wit as the main character to try and get women to go and see it. The two popular Chinese actors were obviously there to appeal to the ever more important Chinese market. Nostalgic re-enactment (or pre-enactment?) of the ROTJ final battle. Darth Vader! Tarkin! The Death Star! There's someone and/or something for everybody in this movie. Maximum appeal to go and see it.

I think all characters did have potential, but there wasn't any time for them to really come alive, as we were introduced to too many locations and too many people. On the topic of coming alive, resurrected Peter Cushing was very clearly stuck deep into uncanny valley, and watching him was a little... morbid I think.

Like with the Force Awakens, I left the cinema not really unsatisfied, but not really happy either. Just kind of... okay. That was something all pre-Disney SW films did way better for me.

The Most Satisfying Video Ever Made

moonsammy says...

The metal snowflake is highly unsatisfying, as it ended just a second too early. And what was with that weird melty chair and the sphere? That was just confusing.

Oil Change Scam - Canada

HenningKO says...

WTF, they've got the evidence on tape, they've got the employees and owner on the phone, they're staking out the joint, and they've got the ex-cop sitting across the street watching... and you still can't get an arrest? All the assholes have to do is say "nuh-uh", and they live to cheat another day.
Totally unsatisfying...

CDC Whistleblower Admits MMR Vaccine Autism Link

chicchorea says...

You, sir, have issues...but then, is that not true of all of us.

About this video issue, which is obviously important to you as is seemingly everything else about which you have an opinion...who cares...certainly not I as you fail to grasp. I have no issue with you about it. With you, about you, none still. You do not matter...more and more or rather less and less. You have, indeed, taught me much...too much.

As to your assessment of FTF, about that I will finally and emphatically offer something. Your assessment could not be more erroneous as to progression of any such encounter or the outcome of same. My record is far more extensive than yours and...I will leave it at that and this wholly unsatisfying exchange as well, except for this in parting. You would do much better with Boneremake...but be warned...he secretly has been studying the deadly Bunny Style.

Till then then...but not soon. I'm done. You...have fun.

BWAAAHAAAHAAHHAAHHAA!!!
If you approached others in person as you approach them online, you would be in the hospital constantly recovering from all the fist fights you get in. (edit: I might be too)
TOO FUNNY DUDE! Try reading your posts as if they were written TO you, I think you'll see my point.

Man Sues: Non-Employment Condiseration w/Police for IQ

Sepacore says...

As much as we would like those who pass judgement on us to be intelligent, the notion that this test-range is based on, is stable from a governing perspective.

Take the emotion out (concerns of ones personal safety/punishment) and review the situation again.

i.e. Businesses are financially driven and therefore do not hire people that are over educated for a role, as they do tend to feel unsatisfied and eventually will leave for a reason that falls within a bell curve (knowing they can do more). This sensibility is in direct relation to sustainability. If as a standard they kept hiring people unnecessarily skillful who will likely get bored and also know they could do something more intelligent/challenging/satisfying, they would blow all their money and go out of business.

Would you rather have,
1. No service (or and including, a perpetually collapsing service that exists only by way of endless cash injections that drains a countries budget), or
2. A relatively ok service that is trained to follow a fairly simple set of guidelines, with a dispute system (courts) to back up any non-time sensitive poor decisions?

There's no justifiable value to a required service if it's not sustainable.

They will still hire intelligent people, but for the right roles, which will be with different testing criteria. Not the more common base-level operator (widespread foot soldier) roles.

Lucy TRAILER 1 (2014) - Luc Besson, Scarlett Johansson Movie

newtboy says...

I agree, film needs visual cues, but making her vision work like a touch screen is a HORRIBLE device for that....at least to me.
Wait...OTHERWISE it's just ridiculous?!? HA! Either way it's ridiculous!
I just hate movies that give the impression that they thought up some inventive method to make their insanity make sense, then crap out at the end and say "it was a dream, no explanation needed". That's simply poor writing and lack of imagination to me. (I must say it does one positive thing for me, it leaves the end a tragedy after building to a 'win' for the hero....but in an incredibly cheap and unsatisfying way).
Far better for me is how they did it in "Wages of Fear" (my favorite movie, from the 50's) where the hard fought survival and triumph can be ruined by a moment of inattentive joy.

ChaosEngine said:

Meh, film is a visual medium... you do need some kind of indication to the audience.

And I actually kinda hope that's the plot, otherwise it's just ridiculous.

On the plus side, Heisenberg will be pleased.... meth gives you superpowers!!!

Going to the Doctor in America

enoch says...

@Bruti79
right on.
thanks for replying.

neuroscience is your answer in regards to consciousness eh?
how...unsatisfying.
the answer is no answer at all man.

let me try for you:
we dont know.
BUT we are making great strides in neuro transmitters and neuroscience and microbiology that it is possible that one day we WILL know.
but as of today?
we dont know,and what we dont know is a LOT.

see? better.

and your response concerning love!
breath-taking!
"We fall in love, or hate, or feel "meh" about something because of the stuff in our brain that makes our personalities"

how romantic!
ok..its not.im just being a huge ass.
in fact i am being a wicked smart-ass period.
thanks for putting up with me.

it irks me when people talk in regards to consciousness or love with a conviction that i know is not warranted.
but thanks for being a good sport about it.

in regards to type 1 diabetes.yeah...no diet is going to reverse that.sorry timmy.

maybe you thought i was trying to sell ya a bill of goods.i wasnt.
check that video out.
its a lecture by a doctor whose field is in disease and microbiology.
HE is the guy who proved that a plant based diet can reverse type 2 diabetes (not in all,but many)AND how a plant based diet can help prevent cancer and sometimes cure it.

he is entertaining,witty and its super informative.

if i didnt love double bacon cheeseburgers so much i would go vegan,but whenever i know i am eating too far on the crappy scale i watch that video and it pulls me back to reality,or the meat lovers pizza.
whatever..dont confuse me with details!

i know better than to try to get you guys to listen to my fluffernutter philosophies.
you guys are all about your religion..i mean science..yes.science!

it is all pretty exciting to me as well.
thanks man.stay awesome.

The Seller of Smoke

messenger says...

Downvote.

The animation was pretty, but I'm all about storytelling, and the content wasn't even good for high school. Right from the beginning, what was the point of showing the showman as unable to get an audience? This had no effect later on, but it's half the show. Why weren't people impressed to begin with? Doesn't make sense. Why were they crying when he left? He didn't touch their hearts or improve their lives; he gave them things.

That's all meh. What really irked me was there's all sorts of clichéed assumptions made all the way through: all small dogs want to be big and/or male owners of small dogs want big dogs; children are unsatisfied merely imagining that sticks are airplanes; all women want to be big blonde princesses or to have fancy handbags, and all leaders want giant monuments built for them. Puh-leeze. It was less Needful Things than playing on tired stereotypes.

I especially didn't like the implication in the end that old bald people with bad backs are less trustworthy. I understand "ugly/old/bald" has been a common shorthand for "bad person" when there isn't enough time to develop a character properly, but inviting the audience to judge people based on their appearance is something I expect not to see in a modern production.
