I never cared for the way this illusion is typically worded, or for that matter the fact that’s it called an illusion. The color of the *tiles* themselves is of course different (assuming the picture is actually intended to depict a tiled floor with a cylinder on it). It is because the light […]

lol.
You really are this retarded, aren’t you? Sorry, bub, the ability to read is not the same as the ability to comprehend, and the ability to read and/or comprehend is not the same as the ability to reason. You posted a few tidbits of information, but that had nothing to do with the point of […]

I hope I’m not the only one who doesn’t see what the big deal is. They referred him to their insurance carrier… that’s the same thing anyone would do. Think about it… when you damage someone’s car in an accident… do you offer to reimburse them for all the damages… or do you refer them […]

@Pimmpb0t3000:
[[These people aren’t your slaves]]
You’re right, they’re not. They are getting paid for their services.
[[Depending on the time of day your server may also be running multiple sections, and stupid questions/demands that cause them to have to focus on one person usually result in lost tips since other people aren’t getting served.]]
That’s the nature of […]

I’m Muslim and there’s no religious ruling on making pilgrimage to Bethlehem. The only sanctioned pilgrimage in Islam is to Mecca and Madinah. As far as your first two points, that’s correct. We believe in all the Prophets sent by God who all came with the same general message, Believe in One God and believe […]

While Uclc’s response is reasonably accurate, it misses a couple of points. First of all most of the heat experienced in re-entry is the result of using aero braking to decelerate from orbital, or even extra-orbital velocities to landing velocities.
When the shuttle returns from a mission to the space station, it is changing from an […]

Here is an example of people losing their civil liberties:
“The Dutch prosecutor’s office is preparing to take legal action against the maker of an ‘anti-Koran’ film in an attempt to ease tensions over the film’s release, the Dutch foreign minister said on Monday…

OK, seriously . . . save the damaged copies and file a formal complaint with the USPS - local PM with copies to the regional and national offices. I think Seattle is completely dimwitted in Congress now (both Senators and the Congressman)? Otherwise I’d suggest you file a complaint with them, as well. I know […]

Not quite true. It takes more than monitor support, which goes back to my original point: expensive video cards. The comment above (by BrandonMills) says that “the right hardware costs $125 now.
