  1. Re:*Sigh* I hate advertising on Pandora Trying Out Invasive Commercial Breaks · · Score: 1

    Another service to stop using. I'd rather pay/subscribe than listen to ads

    In that case I would suggest paying for Pandora, and you won't get the ads. It's definitely a service worth paying for - they've introduced me to countless bands and songs I never knew existed. I heard an NPR interview with the founder, and it's really amazing the amount of work that goes into profiling each and every song. I can't believe it's been free for so long, especially the way they get screwed by the royalty fees and legal limitations. I really hope the public in general doesn't respond as you have - "Ads? OMG, Run away!!"

  2. Re:This physicist says: on Scientists Create Supersolid From Helium · · Score: 2, Informative

    Anyone who has worked with stained glass knows that glass definitely does flow. You normally score a line with the cutter, then break it. If you take a coffee break, or go home for the day and come back and try to break it, most likeley it will not break, because the scored line has flowed back together. It comes down to a matter of degree. I remember that some colors were more sensitive than others, and I don't doubt that modern plate glass flows at an incredibly slow rate, but it probably still flows.

    sometimes i likes to sits and thinks, and sometimes i just likes to sits

  3. Bad Math on Measure The Speed Of Light With Your Microwave · · Score: 1

    From the article: Thus: the wavelength is .6m x 2 = 0.12m Uh, sorry, but 6 cm = .06 meters, not .6m and .6 x 2 = 1.2, not 0.12 Lucky for you two wrongs make a right, so you got the right answer!
