Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

Our "experts" need a big bowl of expertery for breakfast.


Extra crispy expertery with added sugar and some Monsanto "sneakret ingredients."


Doesn't go flaccid in milk.


Damn the narrative, full speed ahead!!!

It's.OK, Deplorables. You don't have to support the use of vaccines or recognize that greenhouse gas emissions have a warming effect on the Earth's atmosphere.

Stay st00pid and just reinforce each others' st00pid on the porn board. Better to have you doing that than attempting to conduct actual reviews of research papers.

Keep pretending that your porn board virtual world has as much or more credibility than the peer reviewed research world. That'll keep you busy.

Indoctrinate.


I remember teaching how to listen to a news story for what they don't say.


Really? You don't say . . . .

Not your old man's car magazine?

Now I'm left wondering if there's even a centerfold. If so it's prolly a Snap-On FR80 and there's a staple right on the quick release button

Yes! By all means, MAGAts, don't get vaccinated.

Look closer, you'll see they're already here.

I was thinking more of the pigs foraging among the bullshit posts and posters we get here. Then again, I hope that is not a menace to the poor piggy stomachs.

Pigs have strong stomachs. One need only watch how often they return to Lit just to get another roasting to understand that they'll stomach just about anything and oink it.

During a Physics exam, a student was asked to describe a method for determining the height of a building using a barometer.

After thinking for a moment, the student replied:

“I take the barometer up to the roof, tie it to a string, lower it all the way to the ground, pull it back up, and measure the length of the string, which will be equal to the height of the building.”

“Perfect, that’s correct,” replied the professor.
“But this answer shows no understanding of physics.
Give me another method.”

“All right.
I take the barometer to the top of the building and drop it. By measuring the time it takes to fall, and using the equation for the free fall of objects, s = 1/2 g t² (neglecting air resistance), I can calculate the distance it traveled and therefore the height of the building.”

“Oh, and you would destroy a barometer like that?
Imagine it was a precious and rare 19th-century barometer…”

“Fine. Then I climb onto the roof, tie the barometer to the end of a rope, and let it swing like a pendulum.
From the period of oscillation of the pendulum (which, for small oscillations, depends only on the length L of the rope and the gravitational acceleration g), I determine the length of the rope and therefore the height of the building.”

“Look, you’re still insisting on this rope.
The building is tall, it could even be a skyscraper.
Do you have any idea how much rope you would need?”

“Very well, I understand.
I don’t need a rope, nor do I need to go up to the roof.
I wait for a sunny day, place the barometer upright, measure its height c and the length d of its shadow, and the length B of the building’s shadow.
Using a simple proportion (based on similar triangles), I calculate the building’s height A.”

“Correct, but that’s a purely mathematical method.
What are you trying to do, imitate Thales?”

The student began to lose patience.

“If the building has an external staircase, I can repeatedly mark the barometer’s height on the wall and count how many marks I make.
Then I multiply the number of marks by—”

The professor interrupted him abruptly:

“A direct method, but not very sophisticated.
Do you really not know a method that makes ‘proper’ use of the barometer?”

“Listen, professor.
Of course I do.
You want the standard answer: since atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude (about 9 mm of mercury for every 100 meters), I can measure the pressure difference at the ground and on the roof, and thus determine the height of the building.

But honestly, I’m tired of teachers trying to tell me how to think.

In fact, you know what?
There’s another method—by far the most effective.
I go to the concierge, knock on the door, and say:

‘Look, do you see this prestigious and very expensive barometer?
It’s yours if you tell me how tall the building is.’”

Niels Bohr

We who are the spearpoints of Allah's ever-advancing creation certainly do.

The problem is not materialism as such. Rather, it is the underlying assumption that full satisfaction can arise from gratifying the senses alone. Unlike animals whose quest for happiness is restricted to survival and to the immediate gratification of sensory desires, we human beings have the capacity to experience happiness at a deeper level which, when achieved, can overwhelm unhappy experiences.

Two kids killed and nine wounded at Brown University and that's a price you're willing to pay.

Now go to church and give thanks that it's someone else's children and not yours. This time.

I didn’t. I stick (no pun intended) by the sentiment of the meme.

You on the other hand should run out and get that, what are we up to…20th booster…
