    The Astronomy Thread

    I would imagine they did. Think about it for a second: Venus has extremely high atmospheric pressure. If the lens caps on the cameras were outright sealed for space travel, there would be a huge amount of pressure holding them in place that would need to be overcome. It actually makes perfect...

    People who take issue with evolutionary psychology aren't necessarily creationists, bro. And there are very real critiques and concerns about it, although I don't pretend to know anything about them or EP itself. Basically, take a step back.

    Hodj is worse than AIDS, at least Charlie Sheen doesn't have him

    The way you're reacting, posting walls of text and such, clearly indicates that you feel that you're being ganged up on. For whatever idiotic reason. "Persecuted" was obviously hyperbole. The fact is, Cad hasn't taken a position other than asking for a source for your claims. Soygen and I aren't...

    Hodj is worse than AIDS, at least Charlie Sheen doesn't have him

    It's not "you all". It's basically Cad, and now Abefroman. That's it. You're not being persecuted. Near as I can tell, Cad hasn't taken any sort of position one way or another. He's just asked for a source to back up your claims, and you've lost your fucking mind that he'd have the gall to do...

    The Beer Thread

    Strongbow's pretty mediocre as far as ciders go. Magner's/Bulmer's is much better, although not as widely available.

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    Then don't go? I saw NIN three times in the span of about 2 years around Year Zero, and the shows were all very similar with that LED chain link fence thingy that came down in front of the band. Didn't regret seeing them once. Although it was nice that they changed things up significantly for...

    Girlfriend found these nice plastic containers that have another smaller one nested inside it. Perfect for veggies and hummus snacks. I personally quite like hummus, and it's pretty versatile. Goes with a lot of stuff. Individual packs of shit like that is terrible in terms of the packaging...

    Is there any advantage or reason to get a Link if you've already got a decent HTPC? Mine's getting a bit long in the tooth, but I'm generally not playing bleeding edge games anyways. It's a i5-750 w/ a 670GTX, vs my desktop being a i5-4670 (or similar, don't remember exactly) with a 980Ti. I...

    Which means they're still paying for the majority of the cost of the meal. Write offs aren't magic. Depending on their tax rates and how income is structured, they might be saving 25-40% of the cost.

    They can also lead to clogged lines in your drainage system. People use them too much. They're for scraping a tiny bit of food waste off dishes, cutlery and so on. They shouldn't be used to dispose of large amounts of food waste. That shit's supposed to go in the garbage.

    Dodge up until the past couple years had been spending very little on R&D. They've just been trying to survive since the bailout.

    For an average sized male, you're pushing your luck if you have more than 2-3 drinks in an hour or two, especially if you're in a state/province that has 24 hour suspensions for being over .05. My rule of thumb has always been that you can have one more drink than the hours you've been drinking...

    Yeah, my bro has a 98 C2S and my dad a 96 or 97 Turbo, as well. My uncle also has a 98 C2S that my dad sold him 10 years ago. Things have gone crazy, price wise. My dad sold his 2008 GT2 and Carrera GT a few years ago and is kicking himself for it. The depreciation of the Canadian dollar by 20%...

    Food and drink is a tough business. The failure rate is ridiculously high.

    Nope. 2, 4 and 6 series are the coupes. Basically even numbers are coupes for BMW, while it's odd numbers for Audi. However, when that M1 or 135M or whatever was out, it may have been before they made the change to split the 2 and 4 series from the 1 and 3 series. That was only in the last...

    It'll be interesting to see how the team does without him. Eberle is coming back any day now, and it's possible Draisatl will move from the wing to #2C. Or maybe they keep Drai on the wing and move Lander up to #2C to give him a boost. In any case, it's the shits for McDavid as this will...

    Is there a market for this ?

    Yeah, there is. I'm frequently out of internet or cell service when camping, hiking, skiing, motor-biking etc. Personally I still buy music on iTunes (or very rarely I torrent it), and have most if not all of my music library on my cell phone, tablet, iPod and laptop. There's nothing more...

    Goalie equipment needs to be shrunk significantly. How you go about doing that fairly, I'm not entirely sure. But at the very least, their leg pads, gloves, and blockers should be shrunk significantly.

    I picked up a nice bouquet of flowers for her on the way home. That made her pretty happy.

    Yup. The disallowed goal against the Flames on Saturday night was garbage, IMO.

Pretty much no mortal goaltender could have gotten across on the...
