  1. Re:Practical uses on Gravity Map of Earth · · Score: 1

    You are wrong sir. The fact that earth rotates means that it bulges out around the equator which means theoretically there is more gravity. Since there is a bulge around the equator there is less mass around the poles therefore less gravity. The reason it appears the way it is has more to do with concentrations of mass in the continents and plates. A simple physics class will tell you this.

  7. Re:Solar wind and Voyager on Solar Sailing and Physics · · Score: 2, Informative

    I know you claim to know what you're talking about but you might want to go back and look at those plans again because voyager had absolutly no ion engines on it what so ever, it used hydrazine thrusters. And it also uses gyroscopes to change the directions it points. And at least for voyager 2 its generator is still moderately powerful, about 300 watts extrapolating from 330 watts in 1997. And while many of the instruments are turned off they still won't all be turned off totally until 2020. When it really won't be able to power its instruments.

  11. Re:The problem is people take jobs just for the mo on Working Hard? · · Score: 1

    Who the hell are you to tell him his job doesn't matter, what job do you have are you so fed up with your 4'X4' cubical that you can't see the world straight anymore. You know I happen to work for a grocery, in the produce department to be exact, and I happen to like my job, I like my pay, I like the people I work with, and I even like my managers.
    Its funny asshole, I want you to think about his job not mattering next time your lost in the grocery and can't find the pinto beans or whatever you just can't seem to find. I guess you'll need one of those useless people to help you find it then.
    You know it might not be the most glamerous job but I take pride in it and I do it to the best of my abilities. And its not just about the money dipshit right now I doing an REU at Uni. of Cincy and I am still going back to my home city to work on the weekends there not because I am making more money there than I am here in Cincy, but because its a good job to keep and I don't want to have to quit it. It a good job to come back to during the school breaks.
    And what gives you the right to tell him he's not allowed to complain and then somehow draw a relationship between that complaining and the fact that he must not like his job. You know sometimes people have shitty days at any job and they like to vent obviouly he didn't like that fact they were going to be taking 50 extra dollars a month out of his check, screw you for tell him his job doesn't matter solely because he complained, because I am sure you have complained about your job before at least once so obviously your job doesn't matter either.
    So why don't you get off your high horse, and come on back down to the real world, where real people work. People who don't fucking tell other people their job doesn't MATTER. I think you've been cramped in your cubicle just a little too long, because obviously your job doesn't matter.

    its funny you rant about how all these groups that have disabilities, but the poster you were replying to specifically mentioned their needs should be accounted for. if fact you go on to copy in into your post, so basically what the hell is your point because you are pretty much making an ass out of yourself for no reason.

    On the original site there were links that had comparisons of the ships you mentioned. However, given the scale of the link they posted it would have been fairly dumb to put a borg cube in there and take up half of the page, which i might add is already fairly large.
