No. That’s not true, nor is it complete. To say everything that Russia fed us was true would be to accept that Hillary Clinton was running a child sex slave ring in the basement of a pizza restaurant. That’s just one of many, many absolutely false narratives we were given. At least one person believed it enough to…

I once dated a marine archeologist. She had the most fascinating stories. It made me wish I’d been one myself.

We don’t get the ratio by taking the total amount of dark matter and comparing it to the total amount of regular matter. To do that, we’d need to know those two amounts and we cannot know either. Instead, we look at individual galaxies and groups of galaxies and the spaces between them and we see the effect of dark…

If you get asshole thumb pain when playying video games, maybe you should just keep your thumb out of there for a while. (But let me know what games they are - they sound kinky!) ;)

You're making several unfounded assumptions. They have FTL travel, so there's no reason to think that they don't have artificial gravity. If they do, then that could be how they are sticking to their ships. In that case, there might be very little natural gravity here. Also, these creatures supposedly have exotic…

Oh, I'm sure he didn't realize you were at a party with him. He probably assumed you were in front a device that gives you free access to pretty much the sum total of all human knowledge at the press of a few keys and that you were instead using it to ask a question that you could have gotten on your own with said…

Would it have been better to go metric? It is ten decicheesesteaks in size.

Um... You do realize that The Flash and Superman are fictional, right? And you surely also realize that vibration as a concept has been around for about as long as humans, right? And that vibrating fluid is what ultrasound has always done, right? They aren't vibrating the fluid through the barrier. They're vibrating…

They aren't sending people on any of he described missions. And NASA has the world's best track record at doing the things described. Russia blows up an unmanned rocket every couple months. NASA never does. They landed a minivan on Mars with a hovering skycrane. You don't know what you're talking about.

And the energy is lost to where, exactly? The whole idea of the Big Crunch is that once we start shrinking, the arrow of time is reversed. Entropy decreases. The only reason systems lose energy over time is because there's no way to completely close them from the rest of the universe. But the universe has no place to…

In order to carry the generator, each of those 5 needs their own exoskeleton, each with its own generator carried by five guys, each with their own exoskeleton, each with its own generator carried by five guys, each with....

And just how many times can you do it? I'm kinda thinking the robot can do more reps.

RVAWino: That's not quite right. Our local group of galaxies is gravitationally bound to each other. They are near enough to each other and massive enough that their gravity overcomes the expansion. We all orbit each other. The Andromeda Galaxy, in particular, is on course for a head-on collision with us. That's…
