  1. There's also something imprecise and subjective about a lapel pin that seems out of place in a court of law. Whether it's a BLM pin or an American flag, by wearing it you're implying that you support only the "good things" about this faction, as defined by you alone.
  2. ! Moderator Note Sorry, but we don't allow advertising. If you'd like to list a few of the topics you wish the members to discuss, please do so here. We're a science discussion site. Please don't respond to this modnote here. If you object, use the Report Post feature, and thanks for understanding.
  3. ... and false. http://www.snopes.com/einstein-rejection-letter/
  4. Because gravity changes the closer you get to the center of the Earth, by the formula 1/R2 (R being your distance from Earth's center).
  5. If I dig a deep, deep hole in the Earth, and lower myself into it hanging by my hands from a chain 1000 miles long, as my gravitational center gets closer to the Earth's gravitational center, am I going to be shorter because gravity is pushing down harder on me, or am I going to be taller because I'm being pulled by gravity? Will I experience a compression stress, or a tensile stress?
  6. ! Moderator Note Please post this topic again, but don't put the whole question in the title. Is this for school? You may want to post in Homework Help.
  7. aka "I'm OK, but you suck!" Yup, American Republicanism.
  8. ! Moderator Note I learned that people don't read the rules anymore. If you can print your evidence so we can discuss it without leaving the site or watching videos, please do so here.
  9. ! Moderator Note Please get over yourself. Speculations isn't the Trash. Nobody got emotional (except you just now). The rules you agreed to when you joined explain that, if you are proposing something outside mainstream science (which isn't even allowed on most science discussion forums), the topic may get moved to Speculations where you can support it with evidence. Show how your assertions can be supported, convince people skeptical of your extraordinary claims, and we can move it back to mainstream. It sounds more like you've gotten emotional about this, and are transferring your frustration. No need for this at all. If your idea is sound, it won't be difficult to show that.
  10. Uncle Sam retires! Looking for scary white clown, to symbolize fear. No huddling, masses! If you're different, you're wrong, Hate makes great again! Orange you gonna vote? Elect your bully nightmare! Don Juan Tim for Prez!
  11. ! Moderator Note Let's try The Lounge, unless the OP would like to make an assertion supportable by evidence, in which case we can move to Speculations.
  12. I'm going to flat out accuse you of having a great mind.
  13. When it's unintentional, it's called conservative myopia. When people mean to do it, it's called Republican strategy. "If climate change was real, would I have bought a Hummer 3?" "I'm going to lie about how much more of a liar my opponent is." The only logic involved is "do unto others before they do it unto you".
  14. Is it one of those personal resource reduction powders? I've heard those work really well.
  15. ! Moderator Note It wasn't Science News either. I work with what I'm given.
  16. Prediction based on established evidence: there will be at least seventeen humanity-ending events predicted before 2100. Crazy and patient rarely occur at the same time.
  17. This is a time for uncovering interests. You should experience as much as you can, to give yourself a broader scope of choice for later.
  18. ! Moderator Note I'm sorry, this kind of start to the thread means we will spend three pages just trying to figure out what exactly you're talking about. Please open another thread, with the same title, and start with more precise information about the subject you want to discuss. I'm going to close this one so you can start fresh. Thank you for understanding.
  19. If you're speculating, please show supportive evidence. If you're asking a question, this should be moved to a mainstream section.
  20. ! Moderator Note Thanks for the false accusation. I see a link to a broken jpg in that post. Paranoia unnecessary.
  21. ! Moderator Note If you aren't ready to discuss your work, please don't start an open discussion about it. When you're ready, open the thread in Speculations, and please provide an overview, along with noting where your concept differs with mainstream science.
  22. ! Moderator Note I like humor, but it should never be used to deflect a serious, honest attempt to communicate about a nuanced philosophical argument. Let's allow for some respect as well.
  23. ! Moderator Note Please don't advertise another thread in this one. It's off-topic and against the rules you agreed to. We have a Private Messaging system for requests like this. If you object, Report this Post rather than talk about it here.
  24. The talk here at the International Astronautical Congress is mostly about system projects, but I'm hoping to hear a technical paper about FTL. So far, all the talk is about shrinking spacetime in front of a vehicle while expanding it behind. From what I've heard, stopping or slowing down this way doesn't work.
  25. Perfect example of witchhunting. When there are reams of evidence showing exact shady, bigoted, morally bankrupt events on Trump's part, people attacking Clinton are satisfied with hints, probablys, and claims with no evidence. Are we being sponsored by the National Enquirer?
