    Right, Bill Nye is as much of a scientist as Sarah Palin much in the same way Yao Ming is as tall as Gary Coleman... They're both true until you reverse the subjects lol

  3. Yeah, DDT won't actively fly around seeking you out to bite you and poison you with it's toxic effects though. Not saying that environmental contamination might be more harmful, as I don't know and am too lazy to look it up, living in gulf coast Texas though I can assure you those little flying hypodermic needles certainly will.

  4. They're saying they expect it to hit 20% of the speed of light, I doubt it would slingshot around anything short of a supermassive black hole at that velocity, perhaps alter it's trajectory slightly but that's about it.

  5. Except now those poor frightened cis women will have to share restrooms with masculine, bearded trans men.

    Exactly. I'm wondering what the effective resolution would be on something this small.

    Or piezo electrics possibly, gaining energy from mechanical motion from blinking? I guess there's a number of possible ways it could go.

    Yeah i thought it might, didn't make any mention of it in TFA. Wonder if it will orient the display to be right side up or if you have to put it that way yourself, be aggravating as hell if not and it starts rotating while wearing it though.

    That probably answers the question of if it was due to incompetence or a deliberate act by the vendor.

    For those of us that destroyed their hearing on their youth with loud music and working around loud machinery i can assure you a higher pitched voice is much more intelligible in a typical outdoor urban environment. It's just easier to perceive the differing timbres and transients present in speech in a higher register, bassy voices just sound muddled.

    Am i missing something, or would those ten hours only cloak us from one vantage point? How are they deciding which single point in the sky we need to cloak against?

  15. Re: Relax. That problem's gonna solve itself on Oklahoma Video Vigilante Uses Drone To Wage War Against Prostitutes and Johns (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    He's also apparently a huge asshole and not very well liked at all by his fellow citizens. I was reading the comments section of a local OKC site earlier, and there were several posters that had had personal dealings with him and accusing him of blackmail and extortion as well as being just a generally unpleasant person to be around. Supposedly he started doing it with pure motives, but after producers started offering him money for his videos and he was paid to go on Maury Povich several times he got a big head and started doing the filming mostly for the money and fame. When he was arrested for pandering reports are that he paid his attorney north of $25k, so it's not like it's just a hobby, the guy is making bank ruining people's lives.

    He was busted a few years back paying the prostitutes to let him follow them to make his videos. He even have them signals to use so he wouldn't get their regular customers busted and gave them tips on how to spot an undercover cop.

  19. He already got attention a few years ago when he was busted paying prostitutes to let him catch them on the act and then selling the videos on his web site. He's a piece of human garbage, and i sincerely hope one of the johns shows up at his home and delivers a righteous beatdown. What i can't figure out is why the police are still acting on his videos and sending people to jail, unless they were recieving payoffs from the ones he hired and the rest go to jail or work it off with "favors".
