    assuming god was real, isn't not believing in him more of a fuck you than actually flipping him off ever could be?

    it seems like you are already performing the ultimate offense if god is real so the whole flipping him off thing is kinda superfluous.
    Assuming god is all knowing and all seeing, I can't imagine he's offended by much of anything.

    Excellent point. To be fair, though, flipping someone off isn't really a very effective form of offense anyway. It's more cathartic.

    you should flip off some real people then, like random people on the road, your boss when his back is turned, Gorbachev....

    I have some FIB images, they have scale bars. But I need to measure the features in the images.

    ImageJ does pretty much everything like this.

    EDIT: Gwyddion also can do this, though it's oriented towards SPM stuff.
    Yeah, I've got Gwyddion but when I import an image it wants me to specify the image dimensions rather than point out the bar and go "that is 50microns".

    I shall look into ImageJ. Ta.

    Ah. I thought we were talking about regular photographs. You're right, that shouldn't be very hard to do programmatically, but I don't think it would be prohibitively difficult to do by hand unless you have a ton of them to go through.

    you are forgetting that god is three people.

    so God hides the present without knowing whats in it and Jesus knows whats in it but not where it is and the holy ghost knows where the present is hidden and whats in it but happens to be a deaf mute with an anxiety disorder.
