Guard Dog Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 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. 2 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell

Agiel Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 8 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 Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete."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
Gfted1 Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 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! "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

ktchong Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) The DNC has launched a series of town halls to better explain the "Better Deal," and to call for public participation in crafting an even better "Better Deal" over the next few weeks, under the rubric #DNCTakeBack.As discussed with a bi-partisan crowd of 100 in the first such town hall (seen here), the "Better Deal" includes a number of election-winning positions that polls show have widespread support across the political spectrum, and that have already been winning state and local elections nationwide, even in heavily Trump-leaning areas.Until the recent banning of corporate donations to the DNC, the DNC was unable to support such positions because of the outsize influence of key donors, as detailed in transcript below. These positions include Medicare for all (desired by a strong majority of voters overall, and even by 41% of Republicans), free college tuition (desired by 62% of all voters), stronger unions (by an ever growing majority), and public campaign financing and the elimination of corporate lobbying (large majorities of Americans feel corporations, the wealthy, and lobbyists have far too much influence in politics).It is not fully understood why so few people noticed these positions within the "Better Deal" when it was first unveiled last Monday. P.S. It's a prank by Democratic dissidents. Edited August 7, 2017 by ktchong
teknoman2 Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 7 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. -Teknoman2- 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. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand.

Bartimaeus Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Why didn't you just write out D.ick Tracy? 1 Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Bartimaeus Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 This is painfully accurate. Sometimes, I hate living in the Midwest. I always say I'm from California (which I am...kinda) if anybody asks to help explain my apparent unfriendliness. 1 Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

Blarghagh Posted August 8, 2017 Author Posted August 8, 2017 Not to glorify drugs or anything but The hell? That's not how adderall works. At most it'll give you an energy boost or a minor feeling of euphoria because of the increase of dopamine and norepinephrine. If you don't have ADHD it won't even help you focus, it'll do the opposite (sorry college students). There's nothing in adderall that would make you do this.
Raithe Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 On their 50th anniversary, a wife found the negligee she wore on her wedding night and put it on.She went to her husband, a retired Navy Chief and asked, "Honey, do you remember this?"He looked up from his newspaper and said "Yes dear, I do.You wore that same negligee the night we were married."She said, "Yes, that's right. Do you remember what you said to me that night?"...He nodded and said "Yes dear, I said, Oh baby,I'm going to suck the life out of those boobs and screw your brains out."She giggled and said "That's exactly what you said.So now it's fifty years later, and I'm in the same negligee. What do you have to say tonight?"He looked her up and down and said, "Mission Accomplished." 3 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
