its just hard to understand how something so stupid can be said

The Wiki page defines ETHICS as

Ethics is the philosophical study of moral phenomena. Also called moral philosophy, it investigates normative questions about what people ought to do or which behavior is morally right.

What you are doing is anthropomorphizing science. Science is a method system for understanding nature.

And without ethics in science, we get nightmare bastardization of science.

I'm not sure what would be it's competition but they do sell an equivalent but it's a sad disappointment from what is available outside the US, so I am told. Maybe one day I will buy one and find out.

I was trying to figure out wtf it was, I have a strong suspicion now ... my fellow countryman are fuckin idiots and this is another example of that bullshit "land of the free".... fuckin idiots can't even enjoy a candy with a toy in it property without regulations and prohibition

need two separate vehicles and two magnets, one weaker then the other

so the weaker one will repell the other and it will kick forward moving the other forward and rinse and repeat at a sonic speed

thats gotta generate some kinda motion

1985 tv version of Ann of Green Gables.... (Megan Follows)

legit would sneak watch so nobody in my family would know.... hehe 15 year old me totally understand her problems.... I thought I was in love with her

it's a great movie to indulge in the language. they speak really well and watching it a bunch I can hear the individual words.

can't wait till the dude with chain gun in the brief guitar case comes to save the day...

I am sorry you had that experience. I wasnt going to reply to this thread but your comment got my mind going. If you are single now, I hope its how you want. And if you are in a new relationship, I hope it is the best it can be.

my step dad was the same way about sports and drinking and becoming abusive. To the point of physical violence directed at me and my mom.

I am a loud fan. I enjoy the passion that a good game can produce in me. I do yell at the TV sometimes. I am a season ticket holder for my local pro soccer team. I am seriously the loudest fan at one point of every game because I start a chant and everyone in the stadium hears me and responds. And I yell at the ref and opposing team all the time. Always in good fun and I try not to be personal. Mostly trying to get a laugh, get the other team on the wrong foot.

But I draw the line at abusive language.

I admit I drink too much sometimes and can be an asshole

BUT ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR DIRECTED AT A LOVED ON IS NEVER ACCEPTABLE.

FULL STOP

Thanks!

dollar fifty

yeah, it was just his project page and some of the folders don't have an index redirect. IDK what web server he's using but that page is hosted in his basement

LOL this reminds me, my friend ran a web server in the early web days and decided that the smoking section at work was disgusting. So he started to take picture of it

much of the time the water in that thing was so disgusting... we joked about making meals with it

Hey bro, crazy meeting you here right?.... you holdin?

I don't have instagram, does tthat link have STL files? Or a store link?

i was a MS employee once. Windows hasn't been their focus since Windows XP. Once they discovered the profit margins of Office 98... Windows was just a way to keep you using Office

yeah, once you get past the first side, it's not as good but the Fantasia one, i think is better because they used old music to sync the animation and the score is timed in the same beat... plus every time that the fairies are creating ice or something, it always plays the same part on the album

My friends and I did this an it really is a mind fuck how some of the events line up

I have been a Pink Floyd fan more of my life then not. My buddies and I would eat up every little bit. One thing that is lost in the modern era is that on the Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii VHS tape, there is a bunch of hand held video bits. The guys acting goofy and shit. Some parts are of them recording DSotM. In one bit someone is coming to Roger's hotel room and he shuts the door on them. On the TV in the background, he is watching Wizard of Oz.

Pink Floyd made a few movie scores before the made DSotM.

DSotM is such a huge accomplishment, I don't think Roger wants his greatest accomplishment to be diminished in any ways so they have always denied any influence.

That last bit is just my personal opinion.

I always liked Meddle and the original Fantasia better. If you start them right, the part in One of these Days will be when the two dinosaurs are fighting. And right as the fight hits the peak and the T-Rex finally gets that mortal blow on the Triceratops, the lyrics will be

One of these days I will cut you into little pieces

and when the Triceratops finally closes its eyes to die, the song fades out and ends

That, and a bunch of other really cool shit syncs up

I played a lot of Vampire the Masquerade in the 90s and liked their origin idea about Vampires.

Basically Cain from the bible is the 1st and only truly immortal, having been cursed to walk the earth forever by god

so every person who is made a vampire is one generation away, most players in the game are at the edge. basically 12 generations away from Cain. The 2nd generation are all dead or beyond isolation. The 3rd generation are the powers that be that control the world and are at war with eachother and have the defining characteristics that all the vampires sired under them have the potential to have

but the old vampires will usually go into torpor for hundreds of years and only influence the world through dreams or proxies

Dark Side of the Moon always makes me feel an emotional reaction, especially on vinyl

well I stand corrected. I'm glad there's wild European Bison once again!
