Ricky Gervais And Colbert Go Head-To-Head On Religion
I think there are aspects of this that fall into the realm of philosophy.
I personally don't think we can ever have "The Truth" in that ultimate sense. Pretend for a minute that the SUVAT equations (the equations of motion) are completely accurate. I can drop a ball from a certain height and you can time it and we'll find to some degree of accuracy that the equations were right.
The ball and the floor didn't need to calculate anything. Whilst me and you sit there with a stopwatch technical manual, assorted tape measures to find the distance, expensive cameras to figure out when i dropped the ball..... Whilst we are tying down an uncertainty, the ball and floor have already done it.
When you get right down to it, we simply cannot know an exact time. We can never know an 'exact' anything, because now we need to discuss where the "ball" ends and where the "floor" begins on a molecular level. And no matter how much we agree, the uncertainty principle gets us in the end - we don't and can't know the exact location of fundamental particles. An "exact" anything ends up being a conceptual thing that we can't ever test.
But where i'm going with this is that we're kind of talking about the nature of understanding. We know the volume of a sphere if we know its radius, but how do we create the same sphere accurately? Our brains don't have a resolution, but the tools we use in reality do - reality itself quite possibly has a resolution. We think of minecraft as a blocky, low resolution simulation of an analogue reality. Similarly, i think maths is an 'analogue' (in that it can be "exact") simulation of a limited resolution reality - reality only looks analogue when you don't look very closely.
All that is to say, we DO understand the ball dropping and hitting the floor, but "exactness" is a thing that only exists in the act itself. The only thing left for us to decide is what we consider accurate enough.
Perhaps "god" wanted to know what would happen if he set off a big bang. He sat down, calculated it all out in the language of the gods (the language of perfection; maths) and realised that due to uncertainty, the only way to know exactly what would happen was for it to actually happen. (Douglas Adams?)
It doesn't make a difference to your ability to make a statement per se, but speaking to a friend of mine who is a physicist his answers are somewhat different. He's suggested that reading more about it will make it more confusing and that we are invariably wrong and don't know shit. I happen to agree with him. That's not to say one shouldn't attempt to gain as much knowledge as possible, but that it's not always as easy as "go read a text book and it should be nice and clear", because reading it should hopefully generate more questions than it answers. Hopefully I've worded that so it makes sense.
Anyway, the sum of human knowledge is dynamic steaming pile of shit. Yes, it's gotten us a long way. But we're still like dung beetles tending to it and it will be a long time until we can transform it into something close to the truth.
Maybe when we can integrate AIs into us we'll accelerate things a little.
Garbage man shoots off rocket launcher
lol; the second half is a repeat in slow motion, right?
But more interestingly; what is the back story here?
Using the sweeper as cover during a particularly nasty part of someone's civil war? Before firing the RPG?
Y'all think he started whistling when he went back to sweeping?? "Tweee, twee, tweeee.."

The Rage is real - gamer smashes monitor
Hmmm, alrighty then, let's see,
Why did/would the poster include and where did the poster derive the following, specifically, the link which is not included anywhere in the YouTube pages for the account holder or the video posting and how is that not a spamming?

I respectfully submit that the ban motion be reinstated.
Avatar Style Mech
Gosh, that's a very good fake then. I can't see anything wrong with the motion, they got that right on. The way everything shudders when it steps, the pane of glass beating like a drum skin, the tethers lolling back and forth, a little bit of slip before the foot plants, the guy in back pulling the "tail" on reverse. Not saying it's impossible to fake, but that is some insanely technical animation.

Trump Calls Obama To Talk Inauguration Guests
Anyone, as long as they make jerk off motions at the end of their set.
Who the heck could perform at Trumps inauguration without it being career suicide? Ted Nugent?

I'm just impressed a kid that age fell over without a slow motion eruption into crying. That girl's alright.

Claustrophobic Nightmare Fuel
I think her arms are a bit restricted in their motion, too, because of the stiffness of the stretched fabric.
![](https://videosift.com/vs5/emoticon/wink.gif)
But really, I think she could get out of it if she wasn't having a panic attack. She's safe and will be fine but at this point she has ceased to function rationally and is just freaking out. It might be sad if it wasn't so damn funny...
Lego Super Smooth stop motion build - 75159 Death Star
It is stop motion, they just "morphed" the transitions. After effects kinda shit.
This is CG. This is not stop-motion.
