Why is 1/2 the video dancing dumbness? It could have been the interview he gave right afterwards where he claimed he shut his eyes after the last hurdle, and saw his mom waiting for him when he opened them and jumped to her....a hilarious explanation imo.

2 more comments have been lost in the ether at this killed duplicate.

Im guessing it's done to make it more difficult for it to be identified as copyrighted material. Changing length and images may confuse any program tasked with identifying it.

@bareboards2 May want to switch embed out with this one https://youtu.be/HI2xpelsOXA

That was the video I posted.

When I did it again, from your link, it added it again.

I guess it isn't going to last long before the link is broken. Can't hide forever!

There's no interview at the end. @newt will not be appeased.

Changing out the videos *backup=[...snipped...]

Added alternate embed code for this video - backup requested by eric3579.

Replaced video embed code with backup #9229 (supplied by member eric3579) - embed replaced by member eric3579.

That's fine....just don't double the length with unconnected nonsense. The interview/explanation was funny, but not needed at all.

That's the difference between us, @newtboy. I like to create a purpose for everything. For instance:

The dancing skeleton was happy with his victory, which was no easy task, as we can all see, it cost him his flesh sliding on the rough track. The loss was worth the dream.

The dancing deer was his dear mother expressing her happiness for her dear son achieving his dream and her dream as a dear mother. Win win.

Don't dream it. Be it.

Adding video to channels (Timeshift) - requested by ant.

That's good. Easier, but good.

I think everyone is overlooking the most important point...

did someone actually name their child "Infinite"?

I think they will find that he is very definitely "Finite".

*cough*

You should hang your head in shame spreading that twaddle, even in jest. I cannot believe that person has a job in the sciences.

First claiming a 20 watt charge of energy is our consciousness is absolute nonsense, that's simply the power it takes to run a consciousness, your neural pathways in operation are that consciousness. It's like claiming the electricity from the socket is your computer's operating system, and when your computer crashes all your programs and data are safe somewhere in the socket. *facepalm

Second, he seems ignorant of entropy, the process through which most energy eventually degrades to heat. No distinctive or recognizable patterns are retained in that metamorphosis....heat is heat.

As to these "near death experiences", studies were done because people kept claiming to come out of their body to hover above it and watch it be saved before returning, but when a scrolling lighted message was put on top of the cabinets in multiple emergency and operating rooms, only visible from above, not a single person who claimed to have been out of body ever saw the messages blinking at them, because it's a delusion.

Made me throw up a little there, thanks.

OK

well, just spare a thought for all the parents that named their kid "Khaleesi"

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Yeah, after last episode I find myself feeling more empathy for Cersei.

...But... The car is named after a person. >_<

Nicola would be named for a person, Tesla is a family name, a company, and a car that spontaneously combusts due to software glitches.

/pedant_mode

Nikola*

Due to software glitches? Are you sure it's not mechanical issues due to the fact that batteries in general still fking SUUUUCK after centuries of remaining fundamentally unchanged?

Until we can come up with a method of storing energy in a safer and more ecologically responsible manner than batteries in their current form, making everything electric can never fully take off.

But I digress.
