Probably already been said, but what’s the over/under on the amount of time before that rips somebody’s dick off? What’s the over/under on the probability that the guy in charge is some pervy MRA reddit troll?

We stream from Pandora and Spotify on our laptop, and have both Chromecast and this particular bluetooth device. Spotify has no chromecast funtionality via Mac, only iPhone. So that’s our reason. Pandora we use chromecast. I would complain about one thing, every time I purposefully disconnnect form the Logitech, it…

That’s a fart cocktail, right there.

Geologic time is not measured “B.C.”

Cut the guy some slack, eh. I mean he did create Star Wars and then get unfairly criticized for the clearly shitty movies that did deserve all that criticism.

As someone who consumed more rumors than I’d like to admit over the last year, I can attest that sometimes they turn out to be incorrect.

I’m not so convinced. Flashback has never been used as a narrative device in any Star Wars film, and the scene in The Force Awakens frequently referred to as a flashback is actually a vision (i.e., it takes place in the present in the mind’s eye of the protagonist). It would not be lost on the film-makers that using…

“The filthiest, nastiest coal-fired or oil power plant ever doesn’t blight the land it’s built on for centuries. “

Possibly my favorite kinja ever. Except, I would add that the “reactionary idiots” you speak of are the 70s anti war democrats who ushered in 3+ decades of deregulation and actual reactionary idiots redrawing the electoral map into a kristian caliphate.

Given how lousy/novice Gizmodo’s reporting is on issues I know something about (recent examples include the landslide in California and the exploding ginger ale bottles) I’m gonna wager that the derisive tone of this article is just as much due to the author’s lack of expertise as hillary’s.

Turtles are reptiles, not amphibians.

You’re the one who started in with the “Random guy on gizmodo” when the whole fracking comment was the quintessence of “random guy on the internet” comments. My main beef with the article is that its fundamental premise is “oh my God the road is RISING and Geologists don’t know WHY!”, and when the explanation turns…

I suggest you read the agu blog post linked in the article, look up factor of safety calculation (any one of the variables in the equation can be the “trigger” you’re looking for), acknowledge that the hullabaloo in the article is based on the author’s misunderstanding of landslide geology, and recognize when you’re…

Precisely what trigger do you require to be satisfied that there nothing particularly unusual going on here? Landslides need a topographic gradient, the pull of gravity, a potential weakness, such as pre-existing joints or bedding planes, some water, and time. The fact that catastrophic landslides often occur after…

“Mass wasting” ( not “massive wasting”) is a general catch all term that refers to erosion events that do not fit the classic uniformitarian ideal of grain by grain erosion on human timescales. It’s a generic term inclusive of “landslide”. Per Dave Petly’s interpretation where the ground is “rising up” it’s actually…

Does salt affect the microbial viability,

“Preserve the sanctity”.... Gag

Also, were they able to salvage the electronics in a way that they work as part of the costume?

This is one hell of a great idea. I was checking these guys out in the store and it didn’t even occur to me yet (my kids also aren’t 4’ tall yet). I made myself stormtrooper armor for our Trick or Treat this year, but I made it out of craft foam. When I saw this, i thought maybe they did the same thing and admired the…
