Earth has way more silicon than carbon, yet carbon life developed. While silicon is likely a possible basis for life, carbon has a lot of qualities that make it far better and more likely to develop into life.

Hodj still saying a bunch of shit nobody ever said to argue against points nobody ever made. It almost makes me think he has voices in his head that command him to disagree with people at any cost. I'd answer his concerns, but he literally didn't even talk about anything that I did. In the...

Peer review only means that the paper means the consensus of one groups idea of sound logic. There are peer reviews for gender justice. Peer reviewed shit is all the time verifiability proven wrong. When it comes to physics papers, peer reviewers will typically look for a mathematical...

I love em drive. For it to function, it MUST completely invalidate one or two fundamental laws of physics. These laws are so highly written into every theory that it will basically collapse some major theories of science in upon itself. My guess is that this experiment will become...

this is supposed to be a racist rant? He uses the n word, but he isn't being a racist. There's a big difference between the two.

From my time spent in third world countries, Baby wipe that shit and throw it in the trash can. That's what they do in fucking africa and south america. I'd just flush it in the states, but the trash is a viable option if you're all retarded and shit.

Detection of elements is not sufficient to prove or disprove life. Complex molecules would need to be detected, which is substantially more difficult than detecting things like oxygen. I don't presume to know much about organic chemistry, but I can tell you that the spectroscopic methods used...

That'd be a really fucking short war. The turkish and greek stormtrooper would run through germany in a day as the not-nazis panic'd over how they thought they made violence illegal.

You're perfectly right. Who the fuck wants a space game backing this shit? What sort of fucking moron would expect a space game here. Lol at those idiots.

No idea on the capabilities of seta. My guess is no, they wouldn't be capable of measuring emissions in the specifically needed spectrums.

Is this stupidity or brainwashing I am bearing witness to? I honestly don't understand.

Oh yea, you're completely right. Thats my best memories of eve, when I walked around in my cabin and changed out my different boots to find the best looking one. Or remember the part in X:rebirth where they blew your mind cause you actually walked into your space ship and sat down instead of...

It's very hard to give an exact answer to this question. Essentially, spectroscopy is very good and exact science that is limited by data sets. due to this, our information about the planet will grow in precision and certainty every time it transits across the surface of its star, which is once...

The question I'm asking is why is this relevant in a space game. Why are they designing a game where you walk around your spaceship to the point where the insides need even more physics simulation than the outside. Do they have any concept at all of how incredibly silly this is from a fun...

In further pluto news: Earlier in this thread I guessed that pluto's appearance was likely due to continued surface activity. As science starts to roll in, it appears that guess may be correct. Pluto has an atmosphere that is fairly considerable at over 100 miles thick, and has a considerable...

That video kinda sums up the hilarious stupidity of this entire project to me. Are they really wasting hours and massive amounts of time trying to figure out a chair in a space game? Is this fucking chairs in space. Why the fuck are they bothering to make complex collision meshes and shit like...

Seti in general is colossal waste of time and resources. As for earth-like planets, generally speaking, earth has a lot of unusual features that make it fairly unique for a planet, and we aren't sure to what extent life could possibly flourish without these features, especially complex and...

Kepler detects planets by watching how bright a star is. Every time a planet passes in front of a star from our view, that star will get slightly dimmer. Kepler likely detected the star getting some fraciton of a percent dimmer in a few set intervals. As for detecting atmospheres and...

RIP

look bad man. Ill prolly see it.

shaco is an -incredible- duelist. Bar none, the best. He can gear to beat any character in the game one on one, and his roam and split are very good. He's really scary in the right hands. 99% of shaco players are useless shitlords though, but there's a reason he gets banned a ton in high diamond.

I wouldn't go through insurance too, I'm just saying, you can and should fuck the insurance if its in your best interest (expensive). This is not expensive, and it is not in your best interest to claim it.

Can just report it to police now. You can report shit to the police for a LONG time after it happened, and your insurance company will try at every turn to fuck you over, but they'll have to protect their buttholes if they try to claim you are lying about your police report, however lately...

khorum, I just dont understand how you can take the stance that everyone in greece lies about their income and that these stats on their income mean something at the exact same time. It's kinda a one or the other thing.

No a single crater on the surface in that shot and super mountainous. Im going to guess that pluto either was created by a massive impact that fractured the system relatively recently, or has a lot of surface activity (probably the second). The first would mean it was probably a moon of neptune...

The first high quality image of pluto. Color will be calculated from other instruments and composited later.

Its like the donald trump of your party. Just like all the republicans hate mexicans, you aren't sposed to actually say it. All the liberals hate jews, but he was dumb enough to admit it.

Then all they have to do is start rounding up the jews responsible for this disaster. They're the ones that lead the banks, right?

I think it has a fixed position antena, and the probe is likely turned around to study pluto against the black body of the sun to detect atmosphere spectral lines. I doubt there's much of an atmosphere, but there probably is a very light nitrogen one.

It'll take a year and a half to send back all the data. I'm sure a nice generic pic is #1 priority, but there's a good chance we'll be getting better and more specific pictures for quite a while. I'm not sure the full capabilities of the craft- but hopefully it took pictures that allow it to...

looks like a fucking planet to me.

This shit don't work or exist yet. Until it does, who the fuck knows.

wtf is the little flare to the southwest of pluto. If you look at the other pictures from today, its in them as well.

i heard leia lost some weight to be in this movie. What I see tells me she contradicts that testimony. That or she has a super power for gaining fat.

Lets not belittle 300. The odds in that battle were more in the range of 100 to 1 vs the 10 to 1 here. Very few, if any fights in the history of man come anywhere close to what the Spartans accomplished, as doing anything other than getting stamped out immediately at 100 to 1 odds is amazing.

They're taking a kick in the nuts, but people have been saying since a couple months into the year that china was ripe for a big market upheaval. A collapse of society though? Unlikely to happen.

Which is a third world country dumbass. You have no idea what corruption is if your experiences are limited to america. Sure there's corruption here, but it pales in comparison to the system corruption that some countries have from the ground up.

Dont try to short change greece's issues. Both are pretty fucked up.

I think a comment like this is ignorant of how pervasive corruption can be in third world countries. Life styles are literally set up in a way where wiping out corruption would cause huge issues with society itself. In highly corrupt countries, nothing happens without expected payouts, and...

Aliens movies have consistantly been shit for years, blunderkamps movies have consistantly been shit for years. I want to hope, but I feel like hoping for this movie is the equivalent of being that retard kid who keeps hoping that dirt will taste good.
