Kind of meandering thought but I once remember a cop telling me: "you would really be surprised what the human body can take", referring to bullet wounds and the like. It's kind of amazing how resilient the body is when you think about it.
And that's all true, most weapons are actually really crappy at "humanely" killing something. That's why if you ever take a gun class they urge you to always aim for the head (not just from a legal standpoint, but from a moral/ethical one).
This is true, that's also why it's a good idea if you're shopping for a motherboard to make sure and look at how much insulation/separation there is between the sound chip and the rest of the board.
Most good boards go even further with EM shielding around the chip (usually a little metal box in one corner of a board all by itself). Even with all this you can get interference and hiss from cables to close to each other.
I used to think it was just cheap chips/meterials too until I actually looked into it, it's all about interference from the electricity itself.
I would go a step further and say the the online integration is what the problem is. Its not just fees, its other things like 12 gb day one patches (or multi gig regular patches)...aside from needing connectivity just to play.
If you have a piss poor connection or prefer to use your console as an offline only experience, it makes things even worse.
These guys are known hoaxers and peddlers of fudd, I would take anything from that channel very lightly. Just google secureteam hoaxers, they have been called out and proved to be hoaxers on numerous occasions, sort of surprised this even got press time, it's not the first video like this they have "found".
Just looked at Scott Warings google++ wall....yep sounds like a credible source, nothing but wild proclamation video posts.....
People like this are the reason UFO's are associated with nutbars.
I knew about Jan and Mark Lee on the shuttle but I had no idea about the mir thing, that's awesome.
In mike mulane's book riding rockets, he mentioned that they suspected both jan and mark probably had sex (he wasn't on that flight).
Lots of interesting and funny stories in that book, one seemed to insinuate that they all knew (or suspected) sally ride was gay and that her marriage to hoot gibson didn't really seem to make much sense (since he was described as being a very planet AD womanizing type fighter jock and she was a pretty hardcore feminist).
He didn't seem to get along with her and said she always acted like she had a chip on her shoulder and kind had no sense of humour, he also thought judith reznik deserved being the first american woman in space more since judith wanted to be a career astronaut and he felt sally ride was more there for the prestige (I guess since she only flew twice before leaving).....mind you this was all wrote about years before she died, I doubt he would have said much about her today.
The issue is that nothing radically new has been invented (like was in the late 19th and early 20th century). An analogy would be we are hitting mores wall and we have been just making things more efficient for the last 40-100 years.
I agree though that this country was in the right place at the right time, with the right laws and system, ect. There are a few other connections too, like for instance the UK giving the US pretty much all experimental research during WW2. It would be tantamount to the US giving all its technology secrets to china or india and seeing those economies benefit. On top of that, we also got most of germany's secrets and scientists.
TLDR; They think it was two comets in that region of the sky with lots of hydrogen gas around them, The hz range matches what you would expect from hydrogen gas. The 2 comets were undiscovered until now.
Sounds like a swamp gas explanation but probably the most probable seeing as we have never found a signal like the "wow!" signal.
I think most peoples problem is the vaguery of the term classified, it's that if this was anyone else of low regard they would have just thrown the book at them. At the very least they would be losing their job, if not fines and prison time.
Thats fair enough, but the person I responded too thought ( or alluded to thinking) netflix was a disc only service and its not.
I do agree that most of the online content is crap, it was good at one point when they had BBC shows and more independent stuff. When I first joined 5 years ago they had the original old boy, let the right one in, dr.who, red dwarf and more older 4 star movies available to que digitally. Even forgotten stuff like hardware was digitally available.
I've been giving real thought to dropping them, but it seems like all these companies take turns on what movie/tv rights they purchase any given year.
Companies use female voices because they are more effective to elicit both calm and be authoritative moods from the audience. It works on both sexes and is evolutionarily hardwired.
The only reason companies have tend to have a female mascot is for proft. Same reason why they only use cute and fluffy animals, or good looking people in movies, because it sells.
Yea, for all of the 20 seconds he's in it. I love it when movies show actors names on the front of the box (or give other undue credit) when they are nothing but a cameo (or as with this, a no-body at the time extra).
Fun fact, charlie sheen already got a first hand experience on a vietnam movie when his dad took with him when on the shoot for apocalypse now. The then teenage charlie sheen hated being there so much, that he got in a fist fight with his dad off set and marlon brando had to break it up.

The only way to make progress is to start with yourself....I think I learned that from a self-help book.
......the issue with the new ghostbusters is it looks like poop, and not just normal reboot poop, real 100% USDA diarrhea.
This is ice, this is what happens to water when it gets to cold.
This is kent, this is what happens when someone becomes sexually frustrated.

I agree, It just depends how serious you are about your audio.
Making sure the audio onboard has good separation/insulation costs nothing though if you just don't want things like hissing noises.

There was a reason she installed the super flush kind of toilet, and it wasn't just to clean those tenacious skid marks either.
Just because something is the status quo does not make it right.
sorry, meant "isn't"
I think most peoples problem is the vaguery of the term classified, it's that if this was anyone else of low regard they would have just thrown the book at them. At the very least they would be losing their job, if not fines and prison time.
There is classified, then there is "might be a grey area".....should you be too important to get in trouble for it.

You do know netflix has streaming services too, right? I would even go so far to say I haven't used the "disc" rental feature in 5 years....

This whole time in windows 10 i've been using the equivalent of express mail....no wonder why I thought it sucked.
for some reason I read as edward "snowden"-hands
