It's a nebulous intersection of probability distributions, so wherever you draw the line is wrong in some way because there is no line. What I mean by that is this: Any thinking being has the right to determine for themselves what they find inappropriate or offensive. If they find something you do o...

For my money, the best villain defeat of all time is Captain Vidal in Pan's Labyrinth.
The movie invests enough screen time in his story to establish him as competent, driven, and thoroughly evil; which makes his final scene amazingly cathartic.

Nice find; I'm very jealous.

What do you plan on making?

I'm pretty sure Jamie's had a death-wish for a couple seasons now.

Did anyone understand what Arya asked Gendry to make?
Looked like some sort of dart thrower to me.

Oklahoma is going to start using Nitrogen: Reuters[/url]]Oklahoma plans to start using nitrogen gas for executions, officials said on Wednesday, in what would be the first such method of capital punishment in the United States. The state is turning to nitrogen after it and other states became unable...

Wouldn't giving up sexual reproduction make this species a prime target for viruses?

I like open weave blankets for summer. Cotton sheet underneath optional.

As floodwaters worsen in the wake of Hurricane Harvey, a plant in Harris County, TX is feared to be in danger. After waters knocked out power to the plants refrigeration system, representatives say they are now in danger of explosion. The New York Post says the County has issued evacuation orders f...

Wut? Drow are just your generic fantasy Elf painted black. If anything all the post-TOS Klingons look like goblinoids or orcs (and I'm hazy enough on my D&D biology that orcs may very well be a subset of goblinoids). I mostly know Drow through Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn So the blueish tin...

In my opinion, the new Klingons look like Drow

I'm fine with both. Irradiated food - if your food is cooked it's been irradiated, just with a different wavelength than what they use for sterilizing. The only reason anyone's scared of this is that "radiation" is so misrepresented in pop-culture that you might as well call it wild magic ...

My dream house is an earth sheltered home. (Build a concrete/steel house and then bury it under a hill) The rooms would be arranged around a central cloister that has a large domed skylight with retractable shades. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiqeWTp-iQM (Mine wouldn't have as much exposed outer ...

A bit of a tangent, but Induction lighting would fit Steampunk pretty well I should think.

Speculating here, but I bet capsaicin on food squirrels like to eat would do something about the little bastards. Birds are immune, squirrels are not. My understanding is that capsaicin evolved to make mammals avoid those fruit and select for bird dispersion; since, as you say, birds don't have the...

There's apparently now a movement to get Michelle Obama to run in 2020. Jesus Christ people, slow down. We only just barely finished this shitstorm, now you wanna draw up battle plans for the one four years down the road?! Besides, I thought Elizabeth Warren was the next woman in the Democrat's pip...

In this allegory:
The house = America
Alice = Minorities
... The Dodo and the White Rabbit may be a bit on the nose though...

Total length is only 93 inches. On me it's about as long as a tie when worn Parisian style or knotted, and falls about mid thigh when just wrapped once around the neck.

This one has been in the pipeline for awhile. It's finally done though! Behold the Pi Scarf! 385 digits of Pi. Over 450 yards of yarn. https://scontent-dft4-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/15003318_10154218040662893_3900502341768367476_o.jpg https://scontent-dft4-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/15000248_1015421804103...

Well... could certainly give new meaning to the term "solar still"

Deceptions, mobilize. I think one could even think of a productive purpose for a transformer. Say, it could move as a car and then work as an industrial exoskeleton in a quarry. I think the end product would be as expensive, if not more so, than two purpose built machines, and less effective at bot...

With headphones you have low impedance and high impedance models. High impedance require an amplifier and more power to get quality sound out of, but are less susceptible to noise. Low impedance require less power to drive making them better for consumer electronics, but they also respond to any sta...

Long story short: Well worth seeing in theaters. Go see it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4-6qJzeb3A Beautifully animated; every scene is masterfully done. Story could be better; a bit basic and predictable, but I suppose it is meant to to be a children's movie. It's a fine example of the Hero's J...
