    LOL @ comparing Finland with USA in regards to schools. Inner city Finland is like Suburbitopia in US.

    http://sph.bu.edu/index.php?option=c...articleid=3366 peer reviewed.... http://www.palgrave-journals.com/jph...hp201041a.html And again, no one is claiming these are 100% totally safe. What they are, without doubt, is safer than regular cigs.

    The E-cig Thread

    Because from what I read its 1000x better than smoking a regular cig. Obviously if I were not a smoker I would not be doing this. And I already feel better. I nolonger wheeze, Im getting my smell back and overall just feel better. BTW why was this thread moved? Im not reviewing products here?

    The E-cig Thread

    Anyone here use E-cigarettes? Its been about 16 days of me using it and so far I have not had one real cig and I have not felt the urge to have one yet. Although I have not drank yet. BTW, I have quit smoking before, last time was for about 3 yrs. But around 2008 I started again until about 16...

    Waht fun is it to exactly have everything outlined for you before you even begin to play the game? What spec you should be to the last point, what gear you should be wearing down to the last ring and enchant. Its nothing more than a fucking checklist at that point. I dont want to play a...

    Well with live events like that I have to agree. But on the other hand you were flooded with shit that was not necessarily true either with no way to know. At least the media is held to a higher standard, like having certainty before reporting some shit. But look at the event now. Without the...

    No there is just something to be said about leaving a bit of mystery around some shit rather than having every ounce of your game turn into a massive spreadsheet. Thats all. It just makes the entire thing boring, and tiring in the end.

    I could care less about DPS meters and whatever. The thing I dislike about shit like that is the stupid childish meta game and culture thats formed around mods like that. Like you have to have build xxx to do xxxxx DPS....you have to do xxxx DPS or else you fail. You have to have gearscore yyy...

    I would love to get a temperature controlled smoker, or even build myself one one day. I always wanted to make my own smoked kielbasa, but that requires cold smoking and drying.

    Men's Fashion

    Thank god my industry (automotive engineering) went full blown business casual back in the mid 90s. I hated wearing ties and shit. Now its all about a nice shirt, some docker type pants and you're good to go. So much more comfortable sitting in the office all day long now.

    Take healing in WoW for an example. Without a proper mouseover mod, its damn near impossible to heal now because they design the game around it.

    Sure it trivialized shit at first, THEN they designed around it. Then more mods came out, and then they design around those...etc... So for you to be a properly equipped raider in WoW, you have to have this and that specific mod or else you are fail. Remember the whole decurse fiasco?

    Well the way content is going these days, with the scalable shit that we saw in GW2 and Defiance and even Rift, there is no reason for hard caps in raids. Just make the raid scalable. You can even make the system more intelligent if its an instanced raid. For instance, if you try to cheese the...

    Somebody had to be feeding his mind with radical shit either here in this country or his motherland. I mean, its not like someone picks up the Koran one day and becomes a radical Muslim bent on destroying all the infidels.

    My bro has a 50" Panasonic Plasma he got last year. Its nice but I dont like the glass front. If you do not have it in a darker place, there is glare up the ass. Thats the only issue I have with it.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I think the ones in any danger in the short term is the handhelds because of tablets and cell phones. But I do not think that tablets and cell phones will ever outcompete the consoles and PCs at least not in the short term. What I do see is in the future some sort of docking system for either...

    What I think our resident engineer is missing in his calculations is that black powder alone does not explode. It burns. What causes the explosion is containing the gasses relesed by the burning until an explosion is resched.

    Pressure cookers already have an air tight lid, except for the pressure release valve. Thats the whole point of a pressure cooker. So all it would take is to seal the valve with either a weld, or solder or some other means of sealing it.

    Another example of this is a simple mechanical explosion of steam. Imagine a sealed metal barrel with boiling water inside of it causing the steam to expand until the entire thing explodes voilently. Now imagine the same thing inside of a plastic container. The pressure would not build up...

    No I think hes got it eactly right. And youre an engineer? Why do you think they wrap firecrackers in layers and layers of tightly wrapped paper? Why not just wrap it in tissue? Its to build up pressure so there is more explosive force. Take for example a pipe bomb...Although the black...
