What is a Dichroic Cube?
elrondhubbard jokingly says...At the 03:50 mark, he says "one comes down from the bottom, one comes up from the top" -- absolutely unwatchable.
Magnet Collision in Slow Motion
elrondhubbard says...Seizure warning! Very cool, but wow, please don't shoot high-speed video under flickering fluorescent lights.

Black friday chaos from Finland!
elrondhubbard says...I'm sorry, but that's called a bollard. Sorry.
I don't know, they still need that anti-ram-your-truck-through-the-doors pillar out front.
We Canadians stop THAT sort of thing with traffic cones.
A Computer Vision System's Walk Through Times Square
elrondhubbard says...Clearly the next step for this system is to instantly determine each person's age, occupation and annual income, along with with a quick factoid or two to add flavour:

Bouncer vs. Gunman
elrondhubbard says...The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy... with guts.
Milk?
elrondhubbard says...All humans drink milk from infancy (unless they're fed formula instead). Lactose intolerance sets in with age, as the body stops making lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose. Hence this commercial is marketing milk for kids.
Aren't must asians lactose intolerant, as their ancient ancestors never drank milk on a regular basis? Interestingly it was evolution that gave neolithic european and middle eastern peoples the ability to digest and process lactose as adults, a genetic mutation that soon became widespread.
But for asia, must be a difficult market to break into.

upfront-noam chomsky on bernie sanders vs hillary clinton
elrondhubbard says...Hey, man, just wait before you start writing his obituary, okay? :-) I mean, if a man as corrupt as Henry Kissinger can make it to 92 years of age, there's a chance Chomsky can leave him in the dust.
I'm legitimately going to miss this guy. And his role is not one easily replaceable; I cannot think of any other person who is so selfless yet inspired to continue to research the cold hard facts and saying it how it is. The status quo will be happy that he goes, but for millions - this guy remained a real inspiration. Someone who found the calling of anarchism at a very young age and never let go. He is someone who knows the historic truths as well as understanding the fabric of the mind to a somewhat tangible degree above others and without much personal infliction. The guy looks at facts and could care less about your opinion, or his own "opinion" or emotions on topics. He is an incredibly rare and crucial resource.
