I like crazy FP more than sad victim FP, he's more fun.
I'm not sad because some grumpy old man was mean to me, I do kinda feel bad for him but it is more like pity. He is close enough to amusing curmudgeon that I can sense what a waste it is that he is just an impotent bully.
And I'm no one's victim. I am in control and that is why I can forgive him.
So sad trying to order people around like he owns the place. Why do you feel like you don't have control?
When did you abdicate your own power to the extent where you feel the need to take it where it is not yours and where you can only fail to gain it? Did someone make you feel powerless? You are in charge of and responsible for yourself druhim even if you don't feel that way. Try to feel your own power a bit more and you might find that you don't need to grasp at that which you can never have.
Do you actually prefer FP when he's being all whiny and self-righteous about his bullshit as opposed to at least spouting off crazy bullshit? I mean, he's going to post crap either way. Might as well at least be batshit insane ravings instead of moral posturing (which is still crazy mind you, just boring crazy).

Cleverbot, why do some people act overly aggressive about unimportant things? Because it is fun and annoys people.
So are they only acting or do they have no sense of proportion? How are you?
I am fine but please don't change the subject. Fine.
So are they just acting aggressive or actually overreacting? They are dead.
Fuck, thats pretty deep cleverbot. Geo? That's pretty fair from me
What? Is that some kind of zen koan? Come back to earth dude. No simply an expressed disappointment.
I'm sorry if i disppoint you. Maybe you expect too much from me. Okay ! I'm from a small hick town in Saskatchewan, Canada. Right now it's raining outside.
Wait a minute. I think I understand why you asked me how I was now. Do you think I am overreacting or that I might not have a good sense of proportion? Yes.
Well it doesn't take a genius to figure that out but I'm surprised a cleverbot got there before me. I know there is a god.
Me too, how did you find out about it? I.
I am...? If it's Zero degrees outside today and it's supposed to be Twice as cold tomorrow, how cold is it going to be?
I don't know that. It's complicated to explain, but I know that it is true.
Hmmm..well isn't that something. Its been nice talking to you. Hope we can speak again sometime. THANKS! You offered great help! .
Foolproof out. This conversation. You are the leader of this conversation.
Well since FP is so badly off his game today, here is something very cool.
There have been gloves and shavers for one-off use for a long time. In future, there will also be disposable endoscopes for minimally invasive operations on the human body. A new microcamera is what makes it possible. It is as large as a grain of salt, supplies razor-sharp pictures and can be manufactured very inexpensively.

In Dec 2012 the world will be thrown off its axis because the Earth and Sun will become colinear with the supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy which will pull apophis out of its orbit and make it crash into the large hadron collider which will cause a miniature black hole which will swallow the earth. Neil deGrasse Tyson banged my wife.
The past few mornings, I have started a habit of buying a coke zero from our cafeteria. One of the plastic bottles, out of a cooler. It looks normal, and feels pretty cold, but not like, freezing. However, right when I open the bottle, it looks fine, like this
but after a few seconds, there is a thick layer of ice, poorly pictured here.
Now, this isn't a few flakes of ice, in a minute or two it is a good chunk, maybe an inch thick.
I'm not complaining, it's actually really awesome, but I can't help but wonder - why the fuck does this happen? It doesn't feel super cold, and there is no ice when I open it, but ice quickly develops once it hits the open air.

Decompressing a gas lowers its temperature. It must have been pretty near freezing though. It may have been hard to tell because of the plastic bottle. I've seen it happen with beer before, but never a soft drink.
So, my uncle William White passed away last Saturday. Why am I posting about it here? Because he was an astronomer and atmospheric scientist who in 1962, spent the night at just over 80k feet in a gondola suspended from a balloon with Joseph W. Kittinger II taking astronomical observations from the edge of the atmosphere as part of project Stargazer. I apologize for the broken English on that site, but the author appears to be Argentinian and he seems to have the most detailed description of the flight that I can find.
Also found this cool, but brief archival footage (no soundtrack) of them boarding, launching, and working in the gondola. My uncle was an awesome guy (also he's the guy on the right with glasses).

Mythbusters actually did a segment about this (though with beer). Jackal is on the right track.

Sounds like a good dude to know, Dru.
So, I'm guessing he's not from the conservative, God-fearing side of the family that drives you insane with religious facebook messages and passive aggressive holiday feasts?

oh I agree
just making an observation
we may disagree and argue over some shit, but know that I'd totally hang out with you over some good food
I think only surrounding yourself with people that agree with you is a boring life indeed.

make with the entertaining crazy or we'll outsource your position to someone who can actually get the job done
You're destroying the American crazy industry!
don't try so hard. just relax and clear your mind. Don't just type out the insult, be the insult.
Happy?
i expect this from FP but dru you are on notice
Alan Friedman is awesome
I love the pic he took of the ISS with the shuttle docked in silhouette against the sun
Seeing the boiling in the chromosphere gets me hard.
On the other hand, if you see a chronosphere, let us know so we know that history's been changed and the Russians are coming.
If you can train your eyes to do it, seeing the ISS in 3d is pretty cool too.
NASA: we do science in Space.
Goddammit. You can see the shameful, torn radiator panel from Earth.
t Fishman It's pretty cool that we finally got some solid images of Mercury's surface a few years ago. It will be exciting to see what comes of this.
In related news, only 4 more years until New Horizons gets to Pluto & Charon (and other ones). Woo! This is a fantastic time for planetary science.
But I just watched this and it was awesome
