  • But the space shuttle doesn't go anywhere near the moon!

    My thing of the day:

    You know when you first saw the jetpack, and thought "wait a moment... that's not a special effect!" and you really wonder at the achievements of science and technology? I just had a similar feeling when watching this video:

    Low Earth orbit is still cool!
  • Low Earth orbit is still cool!
    Whatever loser, I guess Low Earth Orbit is alright, if you're POOR. Me and the cool kids will be living it up in our moon palace while you hang out with the Plebs in LEO.
  • This is going to be the box art for the retail version of Super Meat Boy:
    EPICNESS
    I just want that as a poster. Like now.

    Richard Branson called. He says you're full of shit.
    NASA: "Sup Dawg, We heard you like Satellites."
    MIT and NASA are planning on launching a Lego Mindstorms 2.0 Satellite with Arduino Backbone into space soon. The net cost of such a unit is probably $1000, and most of that is just telemetry.

    This is notable for both the surprise itself and the reaction it seemingly fails to inspire.

  • Found out that one of my favorite professors recently got a $1.1 million grant to help development of smart antennae. A few of my classmates did their senior project on this, when the project was just starting. Glad to see that it's really picking up some steam.
  • Finished my annual report! 3 publications later, I feel like Kenshiro!
    You a Shock!
  • Prisoners escape! Or not.
  • Oh wow, that could be on TruTv.
  • The Noun Project is attempting to create free, simple, and universal symbols for the most common nouns. Seems like a really interesting project.
  • The four heists in Inception synchronized in one video. MASSIVE SPOILERS!
  • Shows how weird that movie really was.

    It's really fascinating watching how they were all created on the extras. My favorite was the spinning hallway/room fight sequence with JGL.
  • This is a great line, from today's Penny Arcade posting:
    Honesty is supposedly the best policy, one hears this often, but the truth is that there are no sharks wearing rings and chains of gold in the actual ocean, and I'm sorry but that sucks.

  • What am I missing..?
  • Not sure what exactly you're missing, but I guess I have to explain the joke to some of the non-American forumites. This is a sign at Burger King, a fast food chain. The sign is parodying fancy restaurant menus that have suggested wine pairings for each item on the menu. Burger King is poking fun at these menus by "pairing" Coca-Cola fizzy drinks with their own menu items. It's silly because Burger King isn't fancy, and they know it. Did that fill in the gaps for you?

    Dude, I'm craving Dr Pepper. I've got a Hungry Jacks(The local franchise name for Burger King, for those of you that don't listen to Atomic Trivia War 9000) right down the road, but Dr Pepper is expensive to get down here, and kinda hard to come by.
  • The nearest fast food place to me is four miles away, maybe more. And I have no car.

    Having The Crave sucks.
  • All this Doctor Pepper talk is making me want a Dr. Pepper.
