Opened the link, saw the length of the video, immediately gave up.

What if it's a pug asking though?

I suppose I should have learned to pilot a helicopter instead.

Fuel pays for itself.

Interestingly enough, I'm actually working on an application of converting impact force into electricity for my day job.

Unfortunately not, the ratio of commies and fascists to middle-of-the-road types is just too low for that to work.

Storage and distribution @Dawlben

A connection isn't a causal relation.

You can connect anything to anything with enough mental gymnastics, but it doesn't necessarily mean anything.

The null hypothesis is a methodological concept for a reason.

It's not about superiority, I'm just not easily convinced unless there is really strong evidence to support a claim.

I don't really "believe" per se, but the mathematical predictions and experiment reliably align. @Dawlben

I just have a few books on it on my shelf. I wouldn't say I'm an expert.

*Hanlon's

Just in case someone wanted to google it because they didn't know what you were referring to.

I've worked the math and done some of the experiments, they hold up.

If there was a better explanation, I would take it.

Rocketry is way easier than a good number of engineering applications we experience day in and out, though.

The number of people needed to keep these things secret, it's statistically unlikely that there aren't leaks all the time.

GPS systems also are an interesting practical application of general relativity. Which I know better than tiny scale quantum stuff.

Have you ever experienced radio signal loss?

The positional drift on a non skew-corrected gps signal would be off by roughly 10km in a day's time.

I had to look the numbers up. I'm actually curious now about maintaining the power requirements on a Rubidium oscillator for the timing, the microprocessing to correct for GR, and the signal RX/TX

Yeah, it looks like an atmospheric monitor to me too.

Every counterexample is proof of the conspiracy.

It's a closed system. Everything outside the system is just evidence to support it.

I'm blanking on the formal term at the moment.

Dass raciss

Closed ontology, doi.

Government lies are math man.

I learned calc properly from Spivak, like a good goy..I mean boy.

And then baby Rudin for more in-depth Real Analysis.

At least it wasn't learning something like algebraic topology in the gulag.

Or working through Jackson's electrodynamics solo.

Now I'm having PTSD

I'm a math-whore myself. It's just the problems in Jackson are rough.

Yeah.

Grew up in the same town where Mike Pence is from.

I went to high school with two of his nieces. Their only redeeming qualities were attached to their chests.

Massive.

And when you're 15 trying to go through AP Chem with those in the classroom was just rough.

Ha, that was a good while ago.

But one of them was or maybe still is a local news anchor.

Yeah she was one of them

Oy vey time has been unkind

But being an outspoken troublemaking atheist was just as difficult as one would expect.

Welp, so much for me then.

If I wanted to be pedantic I could go on at great length about moral anti-realism, but that's a long and pointless train.

Ok, that's amazing.

A really cool and impractical extension of the player piano or Jacquard loom.

I'm curious how sensitive it is to temperature with metal balls.

Yeah moisture/humidity warping the wood would wreck it.

This is pretty neat to me.

It's a restored USAF training film, is that shitposting?

Fair enough.

Hopping over this way then.

I just checked to make sure, IKEA was founded in 1943, that film was 1944

That's a good shop.

I knew IKEA was old but I wasn't sure how old.

Really close, and given the time to film and edit and all that, maybe it was technically older than IKEA

Even cave painters knew ass is best.

The Dark Souls of Dark Souls references

Maybe he's doing something like sleeping or working on something else?

I generally give at least a few hours for a response to an email.

Ah, well then I don't know.

Ha nitpicky point, most violence against lesbians is committed by lesbians, contra article.

But interesting story I'm peeking at anyway.

Spicy,that one.

Seems like it's still playing out too.

It's relevant for multiple reasons as I see.

Does anyone know how the "exhibition" was funded? Or if, I guess. There's a case that given limited public space in a library for exhibitions that allowing it is in fact a form of promotion or endorsement, I suppose, if they were given the space without paying.

If they rented it or such, then that argument is irrelevant,though

More nitpickery: modern art, contemporary art, and conceptual art are different things.

But, still...that looks like my cutting board.

Oh, funded by "Friends of the SFPL"

So, they're an external private funding source, that paid for the exhibition. Taking it down (partly) is probably a 1A issue.

Maybe some wiggliness about calling for direct violence to neutralize the 1A issues?

Every end-grain piece looks like that.

Defenders of conceptual art say things like trying to "start conversations" etc, but the only conversation about that is "what the fuck is it doing in an art gallery?"

And some masterful weaponized autism.

I mean taking down part of the exhibition, one of the "bloody" shirts was removed but the rest of the exhibition is apparently still there.

Having trouble finding objective information on it though.

https://www.facebook.com/degenderettes/ they have their own post on it as well.

zhey have zheir?

Right. Isolated community,rather than the publicly funded institution, so that makes sense.
