We've been lacking a proper supervillian in the real world, but I think Joyce McKinney is coming close.

I'm sorry, did I just read that somebody wants me to pay thirty dollars to shit in a cardboard box?

That Violet Blue thing

July 1, 2008 10:13am

I don't mean to be inflammatory, but there are quite a few crybabies here. I'm not sure which meaning of "post" BB is using here, but we have two options:

#1 "Post" refers to the updates to the BB blog itself. They've written several endorsing snippets about Violet Blue as kind of a sexuality activist. If she crossed a line, and they no longer felt like they could endorse her, then it's entirely reasonable that they would withdrawal that support.

#2 "Post" refers to user comments. If Violet Blue left comments that were inappropriate for the blog, then if they were deleted it would be no different than removing the posts of anybody else who spams, flames, or trolls. This is standard maintenance for any blog. I doubt they would "censor" her just for disagreeing, or being controversial (which is what they seemed to have loved her for in the first place).

And either way, they didn't chisel her name off every corner of the blog; all references to her are still available in the archive, and if you don't trust that then there's an independent archive as well.

If you're terribly curious about what caused the withdrawal of support, then go read VB's blog; that's my next stop.

Astronomical calculations on World of Warcraft

Ah, but there are multiple servers you can log into, right? So there are multiple Azeroths coexisting side-by-side. This is why it seems so dense. It's like the time cube :)

I wish I could comment on this without making light of such an important study. :(

What came before the Big Bang? Science radio show from Canada

November 11, 2007 9:34am

#1 String theory is a model, and if it can help to understand our universe then fine; if it predicts things that we did not know and can verify with experiment, then it can be validated as a useful model. So far, it's just a really neat idea.

#2 The temperature being infinite is meaningless, in that temperature is a relative measure of energy. When you have all of existence in a singularity, there's nothing for there to be a relative measurement to. It's like trying to comment on the wavelength of the sound of one hand clapping. :D

Schwarzenegger says Marijuana not a drug

I'll chip in. #3 and #4 have it right together. The bud is indeed the flower, but if it you let it blossom then it's time to set that plant aside for breeding instead of smoking.

Police testing gun camera

October 31, 2007 5:50pm

I don't think it would screw up aiming. Guns are heavy, and most of the weight is in the handle, where the clip inserts. (Incidentally, that's why you couldn't put the batteries there, #11.)

There are plenty of things that go on the end of firearms: flashlights, laser pointers, bayonets, grenade launchers. Granted those last two aren't common on pistols :) Still, it would only take one training session to overcome any difference in weight, and it would affect speed rather than accuracy anyways.

That being said, there are plenty of custom designed holsters for Gun X with Option Y, so I'm sure that there's one for this combination too.
