This is going to be terrible and beautiful at the same time. I really wish I had one of those theaters with a bar in it near me. Watching this in sober silence won't be nearly as much fun as getting drunk and mocking it.

There's also the NASA Android App, which will allow you to (among other things) stream NASA TV live. I think you need to have flash for that part to work, so Jelly Bean users may have trouble.

Well, that's strange. I hadn't actually tried before now, but I just went to Redtube on my phone and apparently their mobile site is a paygate? Where's the free porn I'm used to?

You just want to help Lisa get dirty, don't you? Or is that just me?

Yes, yes, yes. That moment with Artie and Claudia at the end. Before that the entire episode had been just acceptable, but at that moment I lost it and damn near cried into my beer. There's something about the relationship between those two that I just love so damn much.

This is the most absurd, ridiculous thing I've seen all day. Fortunately, I've been drinking, so I love it.

Well, damn. That's gorgeous. Now I've got to get to Norway.

Exactly. If my god can't stand up for himself, why the hell am I worshiping him?

Here's another video of someone operating it from the other side. Clearly not stop motion.

It's a wooden automaton, the stilted movements are part of its nature. As for stop-motion, the camera movement is incredibly smooth. The rig you'd need to take a shot, move the camera a hair, take another shot, etc, and keep that motion smooth is much more complicated than using some magnets in an automaton.

Here's my best guess: The balls (there are three of them) are magnets themselves. Something like Buckyballs. The cups are metallic, so the balls want to stick to the inside of the cups (around 0:37, you can see the edge of what could be balls inside the two cups not showing a ball). Beneath the table is a larger…

Necessary? Australia stopped using 1 cent coins back in the '90s. Canada's giving up on them right now. As someone else pointed out, there's always rounding errors.

Have you ever seen a dog with peanut butter on its tongue? They go all kinds of floppy and could probably lick you from across the room.

And here I thought I was going to be all original for suggesting Plasti Dip.

Also, didn't Alcide's longtime live-in girlfriend get shot something like a week ago?

Maxine Fortenberry? I thought we decided Dragon was that chick we suddenly met at the otherwise pointless visit to the old sherrif?

The way I always learned it in American Red Cross classes was, "You! Go call 911 and come back!"

"Cheap" is very relative when it comes to space. Even if you had a high school shop class build your probe for free, the amount of money that goes into getting it there and landing safely are astronomical (no pun intended).

I use a 360 pretty heavily, but I'm starting to have a couple doubts. First, the cooling fans are just loud enough to sometimes be annoying. I'd assume a Roku is much quieter.

I do roller derby, and one of our coaches works a story time into our off-skates workouts. She'll tell the tale of how we acquire superpowers, fight aliens, or get dosed with strange drugs. All the time we're doing various exercises that fit the story in different ways.
