Amazing. I think they have a grossly inflated value to their classified materials. Does Greece even have enemies?
Back when the F-117 was newly unveiled to the public after the Gulf War, I got some photos of it from very close up before they put the barricades up. I even waved to the pilot--which to my surprise was a pretty hot blonde... Just the kind of woman that would encourage me to enlist, those tricky bastards at Air Force HQ! There was never a problem with the thousands of people at the air show taking photos, and back then some of that information could have been very useful to a country wanting to replicate stealth technology.
Who the hell cares about a bunch of stupid Greek F-16's and Mirages 2000's, anyhow? You know, besides Greece, that is. That's the real question. The twelve of them would have been better arrested for not immediately yawning and walking away apathetically!
If God were omnipotent, his design would be according to his plans exactly, right at this instant. It would be finished. Completed. End of story. If he were a sculptor, he would turn a chunk of granite to Michelangelo's David in a blink of an eye. After all, what's the purpose if you can make it exactly the way you see fit?
Right... That's entirely boring, isn't it?! Even for an infinitely amusable god, I think! It would be quite tedious turning out masterpiece after masterpiece. Indeed. So, one must assume that if there is a God, his plan is to give us free will and let us loose doing whatever it is we think we should be doing. His plan would revolve around the "It's the journey, not the destination that matters" philosophy. So, god created the universe from chaos to... Be chaotic still? Okay, sure, let's roll with that.
The only plausible creationist explanation involving a supreme god is the one that says even god doesn't know what the hell he's doing. Right... So, it doesn't matter what the heck we do, because he doesn't know what he wants.
I submit that if there is a god--he is an adolescent who keeps an incredibly complex ant farm of sorts for his own amusement--and he occasionally likes to rap on the glass to stop us all from having drunken orgies.
Bow to the holy ant farm, you dirty heathens! That'll be your life savings please!
I'll show that Ron L. Hubbard what cults are all about!
The other day at Village Inn, there was a group of obviously very fundamentalist Christians quoting stuff from leviticus--I've seen them there before, but this day I couldn't ignore them. I scoffed and mocked them with my friends at the table. Their topic, of course was the fossil record, and how science is full of BS, basically, they have NO idea how the science works, and no wish to know.
The alpha male also suggested from some reading that he did (because he couldn't come up with any origional argument of his ownn) that the levels of helium (from radioactive material deposits) in the atmosphere were far too low for the earth to have been more than 6000 years old.
He heard me snorting and coughing, and mentioned to his flock something about heathens and "how they hate us because we have faith", obviously reacting to my actions.
I went over to them and talked for a few minutes, in part because I want to know where these people are coming from. I asked what their involvement in the sciences was. None, beyond the basic highschool stuff. The alpha male was a salesman, so were a couple others, the rest were businessmen and bankers. I asked the alpha if he was at all interested in the sciences. "I have no need for it". I asked him what qualified himself to discourse on topics which he knew little about, and had no interest in pursuing. I asked him if he, having no experience building skycrapers would be inclined to walk up to someone working on a building, and tell them they're full of shit.
Honestly, if he even had a passive interest, I wouldn't look down on the bullshit he was spouting, because I could at least hope to teach him. These are people that are ignorant of the truths as we understand them, and have no inclination to understand the univese differently than what is presented in their texts--and in my opinion, despite their feverous dedication, their knowledge of their own texts is sadly lacking, and seems to be stongly directed by the leaders of their faith.
I just can't respect that line of thought and intellectual idleness.
I closed the conversation with one of my favorite quotes of all time: "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." --Galileo Galilei. I explained what he did and what happened to him as a result, bade them a good day, and finished my breakfast.
That leads me to one of my other favorite quotes by Galileo: "Long experience has taught me this about the status of mankind with regard to matters requiring thought: the less people know and understand about them, the more positively they attempt to argue concerning them, while on the other hand to know and understand a multitude of things renders men cautious in passing judgment upon anything new." Very insightful, even today. He was truely a man beyond his time.
Never heard the titanium thing, I must admit, but it seems you know what you're talking about. My thought is that it would simply ablate even if the conditions were ideal. But I'm no aerospace engineer either...:D At least it would protect the tiles on the way up! Would've been interesting to know if it worked any better.
But yeah, Buzz with an electric weed wacker threatening moon weeds... That's a laugh. Wonder if NASA's electric moon wackers make noise in space! Bzzzz.
The SR-71's supposed top speed is what? Maybe mach 3.5? IIRC the shuttle's reentry velocity can be upwards of mach 20 when it first reaches the atmosphere, and it stays in the mach 16-5 range for quite a while.
Nevermind the fact that Ti melts around 3200F, and those tiles are good for quite a bit more than that... I've welded titanium, and it's quite sensitive to heat and oxygen combined--no suprise there, is it? Firework people love it for the briliant white glow it makes. It *loves* to oxidize at elevated temperatures, and the shuttle encounters temperatures quite near Titanium's melting point.
If you see a yellow-brown or blue tint after you've welded--it's oxidized, and chances are good that it's going to fail if it's a critical part. You need a huge cup bellowing out Argon to give your weld time to cool before it's exposed to the atmosphere again.
Really, it's amazing that they found a material light enough to launch and strong enough to take that abuse at all. Legend has it that the "plasma cutter" was invented specifically to generate the temperatures required to test those tiles. I think they use those tiles because there's few options.
Cordless drills and plasma cutteres--we owe a lot to NASA!
No, I'm pretty sure that it's quite illegal to threaten violence or even suggest it to other people. Hate speech is also illegal, but I don't know exactly what laws these fall under.
Nazis and the KKK are legal here because they chose their words very carefully. We all know what their agendas are, but as long as they don't threaten anyone or target any specific group or ethnicity they're in the clear apparently.
So, basically, their message can be "Won't someone think of the white people?!", and they can pretend all they want to be for the rights of white people, etc. without fear of the law.
They may or may not be, It's just a thought. I'm probably blowing all of it out of my ass, anyhow. Smarter people that I have pondered this crap longer than I care to.
However, there's no doubt in my mind that you could do much to influence the criminal element if you knew enough about the genome... But would doing so be a good thing? Almost certainly not.
A certain amount of deviation from the norm is required for advancement of the species; most of the great people in the history of world have been regarded as deviant in one way or the next... And well, damn, that's because they were. They stood up and were recognized, and even thousands of years later we know their names while most other people of their time were forgotten.
My main point was that our society's virtues aren't necessarily universal, and there may be certain evolutionary reasons we have the values we have-some of which seem to echo around the world in one form or another. Even if the deviants in the world exist solely to keep the rest of the herd on their toes and spur advancement then they have purpose.
I'm with you, I'm agnostic and I don't expect an afterlife. If some day I find myself in heaven or hell, I guess I'll have a red face. Oh well. But besides that, I'm a good person. I do right even though I don't believe that it's going to earn me eternal life. I'm just compelled to; it's in my character.
I think that our notion of right and wrong are buried deep in our genes. Cooperation is what makes us more survivable than many other animals, and somewhere in that we've had to learn to get along. I'm suggesting that sociability, and the order from chaos that follows is what made us better and stronger than the rest.
I'm also suggesting that morality is completely arbitrary, but a certain set of conditions led humanity to our current point. If for some reason our ancestors were made stronger and more survivable by eating their young, or doing any of the myriad of things we consider to be amoral, that's what we'd be doing today.
I think that most of us have in our genetics the desire to do what's right, and that we're all basically good deep down inside. If you believe that God made you that way, that's cool too. Our conclusions are basically the same. Of course, there's some among us that are anti-social - raping, stealing, and otherwise being uncooperative. I think that somewhere down the line their ancestors were made survivable by deviating from the pack. They were stronger, they stole food, killed their own and spread their genes contrary to the established protocols--and here they are today following the lessons of their predecessors--being assholes.
The only place I've ever seen it was at Costco, just last week, for what it's worth. Of course, everyone with any sense knew that HP was doomed to fail in this, what with their only purpose being a tag-along. Incredibly stupid idea.
The thing is, 2.4GHz isn't anywhere close to the resonant frequency of the bonds in water, which IIRC is around 8-10GHz, but is almost unmeasurable because it varies rapidly, so it's a ballpark figure.
The fact is: if you put energy into a system, the stuff in the system gets hotter. It dosen't really matter if it's 10Ghz, 10Mhz or anywhere in between.
As long as it gets absorbed, it makes the object hotter. 2.4 Ghz was chosen because it's in the unliscensed band and microwaves used to leak quit a bit of RF, and also because it will penetrate food well enough to heat something largish. It's sort of a sweet spot. Higher frequency waves would be absorbed nearer the surface, and lower frequencies were in demand for communications, though they'd work about as well, apparently.
Personally, and this is just me talking, but I think Hillary is trying to appear more conservative by going after GTA so more conservative people will have this little seed planted in their mind saying "aww, she aint so bad she don't like boobies neither" next time elections come around.
She's done it in other ways recently, I'm recollecting, but I don't remember any specific examples. Too much shit for me to keep track of--I'm sure you understand.
I think she's whoring for votes, pure and simple. She'll do or say whatever she and her advisors think will make people want to vote for her--but that's par for course in politics anyway. Nothing new.
I'm a self-described gun-nut. I have lots of guns, and if many of my close friends knew the extent of my collection they'd probably be freaked out. I don't want my collection taken away, and I'm against legislation passed that limits good, well-intentioned, honest people from getting weapons for whatever reason.
That said, I can say decisively that careless use and storage of guns has killed and scarred far more kids than any form of pornography--yes, even goatse... "Conservatives" have been under the anti-pornography/anti nonmoral "think of the children" banner forever, which is to say--just as long as the "liberals". I don't mind guns or gay marriage. I'm for conserving our forests and oil, water and air. I don't think abortion is a good thing for the mind/body/soul, but I wouldn't deny it to those who need it. I didn't like Clinton, and I sure as hell don't like Dub'ya--they're both fucking liars. I guess it's just a bitch being a rational, moderate person.
If you're too stupid, arrogant or scared to pull your head out of the ground and realize that all of our parties use the same bullshit tactics, are completely full of crap, and only seek power then that's your problem.
Gimp and Inkscape have *nothing* at all in common, in practical terms.
Inkscape is pretty much strictly for working on vector graphics (aside from vectorizing a bitmap and rendering an SVG to bitmap I doubt it has any operations on raster formats--it didn't last time I used it), like the grandparent said. The Gimp is for doing raster graphics, though it does have some basic vector operations (paths and fonts, etc.), but they don't compare in strength to Inkscape's functions.
These tools do not have the same function or scope, and (naively) saying so implies that a chisel might work as well when the job calls for a hammer. Of course, when you realize that you can use two tools together, (hammer and chisel, Photoshop and Illustrator, The GIMP and Inkscape), well, there's alot less that you can't do. I.E. You can be effective at chiseling wood with your hands and a sharp instrument, good luck with granite, though.
Heh, that's interesting. So, we're going to let people vote directly on the taxes--and thus the policy and services the government provides--that they want to pay for. Sounds pretty good, in thoery--I really think so...But in reality you'd have lots and lots of people not want anything. So, the way I see it, you'd have to devise a minimum number of things to vote for.
Im thinking the ballot would look like this: 50 checkboxes, and a little note above them reminding you to check at least 50.
$250,000 is such a pathetic amount of money distributed across the 250 million or so people that our country collects tax from that it's just not funny. Is the cost of a thousandth of a cent too much to preserve this historic data to you?
If you want to be all upset about taxes, that's fine... I don't blame you--nobody likes taxes! However, This is small fish compared to pretty much everything else out there. It's not like politicians regularly use tens of thousand times this amount to go to lavish conventions and other inane stuff, or anything.
This is important, and actually has the potential to increase our understanding of the universe--unlike much that the government does at greater expense. This is hardly a blip on the radar. Crow sized, even.
Everyone knows gentoo is the Linux distro best fitted to running quickly on a small block Chevy. And hey, if you were capable of building your car you aught to be able to compile gentoo on a Ramjet-350!
I'd like to see your sorry ass behind the trigger when it's time to make the judgement: Do I want to be responsible for the death of this guy, or this guy and 20 bystanders?
Apparently the Republican party was in charge when Jesus was on earth because that was the same strategy the local political powers pursued against Him.
Indeed.. It always seems to be conservatives vs. hippies.

Taking pictures at a foreign airshow is illegal over there? I think that could quite possibly be the craziest thing I've ever heard! Wow.

Well, there is a tiny bit of atmosphere around the moon, plus moon dust thrown up by meteors.
If they make a sound, I imagine it sounds like a cross between a light saber and a trimmer... That moon dust, you know..
Never heard the titanium thing, I must admit, but it seems you know what you're talking about. My thought is that it would simply ablate even if the conditions were ideal.

I think that illustrates the point well enough.
