A good rejoinder to the nerdy pick up line of "I wish I was your second derivative so I could investigate your concavities" : "Well you're that for velocity".

The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder.

What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past?

 

Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born!


We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did.

You know I've always found that compelling. I am not a sentimental man. I love my animals with all my heart but I've never been one to anthropomorphize inanimate objects or other non-living things. But something about that strikes a chord I guess. However, since Mars has an atmosphere only 1% the density of earth I can't imagine the sound carries too far.

Quote
“Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.”
 
-Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>>
Quote

"The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete."

-Rod Serling

I had never heard about the Curiostiy rover doing that! A little Googlefu finds a brief article.

 

 

 

To do this, Curiosity produces a series of frequencies that mimic the notes in the song. As reported by The Washington Post, NASA technologist Florence Tan explains that "the rover's sample analysis unit vibrates at different frequencies to move soil samples" in order to create sounds the sound like the song.

 

That's cool!
