  1. Re:Enough data? on The Sun's Odd Behavior · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So perhaps there are two (or more) close, but different, mechanisms at place - and the resulting interference gives us the large cycles.

    Think about what happens when you combine a 440Hz tone with a 439.5Hz tone.

    Nuke plants do not often run on water. Old ones, yes... new ones use heavier elements. Hell, some use metals!

  3. Re:My recommendation on Low-Level Format For a USB Flash Drive? · · Score: 1

    Your recommendation does nothing to answer the question posed. Go back and read the actual story, not just the 'headline'.

    Also note that said headline specifies LOW-LEVEL FORMAT

    Learn to fucking read already will you people?

    THIS IS NOT A USB "DRIVE"

    You don't know what low-level format means, do you?

    I'm curious about this too.

    I never heard of the movie before this.

    That said, I don't watch TV and hardly ever go outside, and I block web ads. I'm not exactly an easy customer to reach...

  7. Re:But can we wipe out pest bugs by making them... on A Genetically Engineered Fly That Can Smell Light · · Score: 1

    We'd need to make sure they overwhelm the "normal" population fast enough that their dying wouldn't self-select them right out of the gene pool. This is contradictory :)

    In that context, swear != curse != vulgarity

    The definitions of all of these words have changed. These days, they mostly mean the same thing.

    Red Snapper always smells that way. I've never tasted it. So, it's a rot fish eh? :D

    I'd rather be a fat cunt than a grabbastic piece of amphibian shit. At least fat cunts get action every now and then.

    There. Are we done yet? I invite you to look at my comment history. You'll find me a useful and civil member of the community. I only light up when some horrid piece of shit comes up like your original AC post.

    It looked far less like an attempt to be useful, and more like one of those retarded "i was drunk when I wrote this" bots that like to come around now and then.

    Hey drunkie,

    I have no problem communicating literately from my phone. Then again, I don't have an iPhone. You brought it on yourself :P

    I'm similar, but the pain threshold takes time to 'set'

    I can burn myself and not even realize it, while at the same time I can hold a cup of coffee in my hand and go "OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH HOT"

    Burn out taste buds and I bet your wish would be granted :P

    Shame you can't selectively make poor nutrition taste bad while letting good food stay tasty. Also, less of a pain in the ass. I eat very poorly, because I'm lazy. If you could make proper food as easy/fast to obtain as a "taco" then I will sell you my soul.

    Especially not after reading about them.

    Beans & Mucus is bad enough by look, but then you find out they have been 'fermented' in a bacteria? Erm...

    Fecal Corn is also bad enough. But then you get to find out it's moldy corn. Yay.

    ... I should mention I can't eat anything remotely fishy. Makes me heave.

    Oddly, Calamari is not among those things.

  19. Re:And once again on Food Bloggers Giving Restaurant Owners Heartburn · · Score: 2, Informative

    Grouper (the real stuff) doesn't taste fishy if it's not old.

    Raw tuna (preferably sushi/sashimi grade...) doesn't taste anything like fish, surprisingly. Salmon is nasty, though. I haven't tried any others.

    It really is true, not all fish prepared right tastes fishy.

    They aren't an oilfield service company, is what I mean. They might do that, but that's not their specialization. Well, or at least it wasn't. I suppose it was a while back when I worked with their 20+ year old gas pumps and card readers.

    That article misrepresents just who/what Schlumberger is. Take a look here. They are into almost everything oil that's more complicated than banging rocks together. If you hire them, you do what they fucking tell you.

    This is what happens when you don't. They know what they are doing.

    Hmmph, if we were able to get off our asses and reduce/eliminate our oil dependence, this wouldn't have happened and we wouldn't be in the shitstorm commonly called the Middle East.

    Regardless, no amount of dollars will undo the damage to the gulf and surrounding area.

    Accidents happen, but responding quickly and appropriately does help mitigate the damage. Instead, it's as if we are witnessing a case study on runaway oil spills...
