The Lounge

I love to order games online. Let me xplain this first: when a game is produced, the factories will make many copies of it and so are plastic cases, then they will send those newly-packed games to retailers over states. I am just curious: when you order somethings in EB site, do they directly pick the games in their store shelves to pack and send to your house; or do they just make call to those industries I mentioned to send the game I ordered to my houses? I often see some paperbag-like boxes and so on sent to the GameStop store where I was shopping at, and I assume those boxes are just similar as the ones sent to my house, so just a hypothesis. Does that mean the game…

Hello guys. IM new, i joined becasue im working on an invention but need some help.. ok my question is, is there anyway to divert electricity of of a main wire, to power electrical magnets, that make a central piece of metal spin, wiht out using any more elctricity. or is there another way, via heat/light to power magnets making a central point spin. Or is there a way to use magnets to make metal spin? Thanks! ..and the metal thing im spinning is like a veritical axle, spinning a metal disc.

How do you do it?

If the technology was available, would you support designer babies? Why or why not?

I don't know. Some people on the net told me that Germans are very strict, hard-working group among all Europeans. They said because Germany have strong antecedent with the natives of Israel--which is Hebrew. We all know Jewish are smart at math or whatever, they were the earliest colonist in East German. And Eistien was half German and Half Jewish. So is this country stricest country over there? Also I heard German language has lots to do with Hebrew, right?

we are gonna race Physicsforums without them knowing it. here it iss: you post one thing that you know about the person whose post is directly before yours. three different people must post before you can post again. they don't seem to know how to follow the rules, but i think we can.

This is a simple forum game. You say something about the person above you in the thread. It can be funny, clever, anything you want. For instance, the next person who posts here would say something about me.

The Theory of Evolution The way that for 150 years certain people have been devoted to such an extraordinarily illogical belief as the theory of evolution is a great miracle created by God by making use of Satan. Those with good sense and faith in God and who are aware of this miracle have been waiting for 150 years to see just when evolutionists would become aware of this deception of Satan's, and have been using various means of suggestion, employing scientific and rational methods, to awaken them. The way that hundreds of thousands of professors, scientists, university students and doctors have blindly believed in the exceptionally illogical claims of the theory…

Why do we want a single number to define how intelligent we or AI-devices are? Even for a simple CPU comparison we use lot's of benchmarks numbers. Put a faster CPU in it and suddenly it's a lot smarter. Or does time not count for AI-devices? Do you think that as long that a 'software-CPU / AI-device' isn't decleared alive it has no IQ. Is it somewhere proven that there exist something like 'universal intelligence'? It depends on the reference environment it even depends on time making it as relative as it can be.

I don't know why. I have tried several years for making my shooting sharp, but it hardly works. I know, you have to aim a certain focus in mid-air in order to shoot the ball accurately into the basket. Everytime, when I tried to make my body fully depressed, I shot with currect pose, but the ball's shooting-in did not increase. I am wondering that the National Basketball Association must be using the ball which is lighter. I have strong arms, told by many people, but my arms just have troubles to handle the ball with correct currecy of energy. NBA players, they could even shoot the ball in mid-court. I find no logic how they could shoot the ball which gives heavy pre…

Here is some weird stuff I'll post more if I find them.

I noticed there are icons on the very far left of all the threads. What do these mean? There are blue envelopes, orange envelopes, orange envelopes with arrows, and a few others.

can anyone tell me what would happen if i ran pure oxygen into the air cleaner (or carby) of my motor bike?

There's no question that the Legosia-deniers have been dealt a serious blow with this significant find. Clearly not only was Legosia an advanced civilization, but they represent unequivocal proof of contact by an advanced extrasolar civilization thousands of years before the rise of western culture. We need to get the history books properly updated ASAP, and labelled with a warning about the "theory of western civilization". http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5604244895&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT&rd=1

I shopped at Frys and Circuit City, and I discovered they are selling robots in their stores. Today, I even saw the one with Raptor. What are those robots doing? What kind of benefits can we get buying them? I saw the mini-robot costs 19.99. not expensive. And the huge one is way expensive.

There are some packages of noodle sold in store that you can take to home to boil and cook and add some sauce to make it spaghetti. I felt that the one cooked by me is different to the stores'. The ones from stores have that kind of oily taste, so I assume they must use some kind of oil soup to boil their delicious-made spaghetti. Can you guys tell me how to cook spaghetti with the noodles feeling so oily and smelling? Do I just pour oil into the boiling soup when cooking it? And do I need to add some other materials to do?

I havent seen it on this forum yet, but I want to inform everyone to help Google Bomb the words Intelligent Design. The idea is inspired from this blog post: Make sure when you link Intelligent Design, you use the word "Intelligent Design" right in the link, or else it wont work. Help in any way you can! If you put Intelligent Design in your signature, thats hundreds of free ads for Intelligent Design right there

as before. I feel the recent released games do not have that sense of attracting variety of game elements. The only fantastic games I could think of recently are those: Musashi: Samurai Legend (not that impressive though), Final Fantasy X-2, Kingdom Heart, Onimusha, BioHazard-Remade, Ninja Gaiden, and something else. If you retrospect the games of PS1, there is tons of mavelous games: Final Fantasy 7, Chocobo Racing, Chocobo Dungeon, Parasite Eve, and more. I feel the state of being of past games were much better than nowadays. I don't know why--maybe the currecnt developers of gaming factories are way young than before that they don't have much gaming producing e…

"No problem: Google hands those out like free-buffet coupons on the Las Vegas strip, and you can find one by simply Googling for "gmail invite" or something similar." I was reading up on Gmail but this free food thing got me more. Is Las Vegas really like that? Do they give out free-buffet coupons on the strip?

I am going to be honest. I always find myself drunk as hell with my friends and we always start talking about the wierdest things. The one thing I always bring up is the question "where does space end?" then I ask what made space, and where did it come about. The thing that really makes me think is if you come up with an explaination then there always has to be another explaination. Just like what came first the chicken or the egg. It is a never ending battle. If you can answer the question, then there is always the rebuttle of how that came about. Wierd shit if you think about it

My friend Matt made this gem. Haha.

omg, my stepdad is watching this show on tv saying that ancient surgury is proof of creationism.
