Slashdot Mirror

do what this guy did.

Actually just got this link in an e-mail about 2 min ago.. Nintendo Choir
cheesy but well done

...is there anything one can't do with that stuff?

(Judging from Big boys, I doubt it.)

I get the feeling you're going to try to act all bad ass now just because you're collectable.
But I've got news for you. You probably breathed in numerous things that were found in Wallace's shower drain.

"And this guy is going to have the nerve to stand his ground and pick off a big leaping agile cat"

Some people do actually have the nerve to do it. Here's a video of people shooting a charging lion. Of course it didn't really work so well and it took more than one shot. http://www.big-boys.com/articles/huntlion.html (it was the first place I found the video...I don't know if they can handle the banwidth)

Aye ah hee, aye a haw, aye a haw haw!

Quite a few people have commented on octopus being predators. Here's a video of an octopus attacking a shark:

We Americans are more concerned by the confusion caused by your 20 hour day than a slight adjustment such as daylight savings time.

There's also a flash version.

Is this tea-shirt a cunning part of the marketing strategy?

;-)

A thermodynamics professor wrote a take home exam for his graduate students. It had one question: 'Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with proof.'

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following

'First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the religions that exist in the world today. Many religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.

1. So, if hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.

2. If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, than the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given me by Therese Banyan during freshman year, and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then # 2 cannot be true, and hell is exothermic.'

I couldn't agree more!

I went diving into the source for that page to find the real link...

As of yesterday I could access it here : http://www.big-boys.com/articles/kosovo.html

I don't know if it's taken down as the site is blocked from where I work:(

... until we find a way to grab the legislators in the balls.

I'm sure we can come up with a toilet design that grabs the legislators by the balls. Prior art will be the work of the winner of the 2004 Darwin Award: http://www.big-boys.com/articles/2004darwinawards. html/

You mean like this dork who was caught lipsynching "My Hero" on his webcam? I admit, I too have lipsung to stupid songs, but I'm smart enough not to get caught... :-)

So I have to be able to say the alphabet backwards while standing on one leg and touching my nose[...]

Actually, you could just do what this guy does: http://www.big-boys.com/articles/topdui.html

Check out this cool video of a nuke going off in an underground test.

Amazing video.

Modded insightful? Methinks someone out there has mod points and a drinking problem.

Public Service Announcement... Don't MUI (Mod Under the Influence)... man, my sleeping pills are kicking in, and I wonder if you're not supposed Slashdot Under the influence... keep forgetting what I'm tryng to say... oh yeah... check this link... of to bed... zzzzzzzz

HALO 3 = GOODBYE http://www.big-boys.com/articles/dudelipsync.html = stupid comment DO NOT click on link!

What he said. Reactors are SPECIFICALLY designed to withstand jet impacts for PRECISELY the reason mentioned. If computer simulations don't float your boat, here's some footage of an F4 Phantom being crashed into a nuclear containment wossname at 475mph, just to prove it can stand up to it. (Apologies for the dumb website, it was the first place I could find that was hosting the video.)

Just a while ago that kind of money would get you an astounding 15 megabyte harddrive. You could add an amazing 15 million characters of high speed storage for just $2495 (plus installation kit).

Wow!

Tests were devised in which tanks containing liquid hydrogen under pressure were ruptured. In many cases, the hydrogen quickly escaped without ignition. The experimenters then provided a rocket squib (a small powder charge) to ignite the escaping, hydrogen. The resulting fireball quickly dissipated because of the rapid flame speed of hydrogen and its low density. Containers of hydrogen and gasoline were placed side by side and ruptured. When the hydrogen can was ruptured and ignited, the flame quickly dissipated -, but when the same thing was done with gasoline, the gasoline and flame stayed near the container and did much more damage. The gasoline fire was an order of magnitude more severe than the hydrogen fire. The experimenters tried to induce hydrogen to explode, with limited success. In 61 attempts, only two explosions occurred and in both, they had to mix oxygen with the hydrogen. Their largest explosion was produced by mixing a half liter of liquid oxygen with a similar volume of liquid hydrogen. Johnson and Rich were convinced that, with proper care, liquid hydrogen could be handled quite safely and was a practical fuel-a conclusion that was amply verified by the space program in the 1960s. At the time, however, Johnson and Rich filmed their fire and explosion experiments to convince doubters.

The confidence of Johnson and Rich in hydrogen handling was not always shared by their hydrogen consultant, Russell Scott, who was often amazed at what he saw going on in the test areas of Fort Robertson.14 The facility, however, was well equipped with an explosion-proof electrical system, non-sparking safety tools, hydrogen sniffers or monitors, and other safety devices. In the three years of work and the handling of thousands of liters of liquid hydrogen, there was not a single accident caused by hydrogen. There was, however, one close call. In keeping with Kelly Johnson's philosophy of austerity, the ovens used for simulating hot wing temperatures of Mach 2.5 flight were made partially of wood. There were five such ovens, and early one morning, about 2 a.m., one of them caught fire. The Skunk Works personnel, including Rich, were summoned because the fire department could not be called, for security reasons. At the time there were 2000 liters of liquid hydrogen stored in the area and Rich decided that the best course of action was to dump the liquid hydrogen on the ground. It was winter and very humid; the cold hydrogen quickly filled the revetment with fog about five feet thick. Rich and about two dozen other people were in the revetment and all they could see of each other were their heads, an eerie sight. Luckily, the hydrogen did not ignite.
