Zima Commercial 1994
03/22/12, 21:44
I must have missed that brief fashion craze where guys dressed like they just came from A Clockwork Orange convention.
Also, obligatory Simpsons quote:
"Excuse me, I ordered a Zima, not emphysema!" |

crappy fireman
03/22/12, 21:35
He's not crappy; how is he supposed to hit the roof from that angle? He can't back up any further because of the fence. Unless he can adjust that hose stream to a short arc, exactly what is he supposed to have done? |

How to see around corners
03/22/12, 20:06
Yeah, but the laser would either need to be on the same side of the wall as the object being imaged, or else you'd need a convenient smooth reflective surface positioned at just the right angle to bounce the laser beam off, as in the video.
This sort of defeats the "sees around corners" aspect for most real-life applications of the technology. It's more like getting someone who is already around the corner to give you a description of what he sees, or catching a distorted reflection in a mirror. It's like visual radar, not x-ray vision.
I think memedumpster is talking about possible future refinements of this camera that might work with existing photons coming from around the corner, without the need to position a laser source. It would have to be a single steady source of light, and you'd have to know how far away it was, and the object being imaged would need to be stationary, as well.
But the end result might be the ability to extrapolate things not in the camera's line of sight, as seen in Enemy of the State and other Hollywood cheese ("Enhance! Now rotate the view!") |

Penn & Teller Bullshit - Ouija Board
03/20/12, 12:11
Stripping away all the mumbo-jumbo, the principle by which Ouija boards operate is fascinating, and I think that Penn, irritating as he is, and dumb as some of his political ideas are, did an okay job of explaining it.
My wife and I have taken a cue from Harry & Bess Houdini and have developed a code phrase know only to us. |

'Who's Gonna Complain If I Shoot You?'
03/19/12, 12:10
American cops are out of control AND since 9/11 they've been stuffed full of tons of military hardware and the ideas that a) civilians are the enemy and cops are soldiers, b) cops, as First Responders, are heroes above reproach, and c) laws and rights are things that can be ignored without consequence if you say you were trying to keep the public safe.
Not a great combination, so it's not surprising when you end up with things like Joe Arpaio & Steven Seagal in a tank running over puppies for reality TV. |
