    Odd Beams Of Light

    I queued this video to 42:57, where you see three lights, two green and one orange-ish in the middle. The lights appear to produce four beams at perfect 90 degree angles. I don't think this represents reality as it appears to the human eye. Anyone know how/why a camera produces this effect?

    Does The Color White Reflect More Heat?

    The answer always seems to be yes, BECAUSE white reflects more light. But if a white object and a black object were receiving equal amounts of heat, and neither receiving any light, would white reflect more heat?

    Some Fun Science Trivia

    This is insane. At first I thought it was a hoax, but it's not. There's this protein called "titin". Nice enough word. Two syllables. Well within my pay grade. But the official name of titin is a single word comprised of 189,819 letters. A couple of websites say it can take 3 hours to say this...

    I Remember...

    Thought this might make for a fun thread. Post things you remember from way back when. I remember the time before microwave ovens. When we got pizza, the cardboard box had re-heating instructions, and it took 20 to 30 minutes to re-heat a couple of leftover slices. Now it takes 30 seconds. I...

    Oligarchy

    Okay. People. Some of you, and you know who you are. Check any dictionary. Check Wikipedia. Oligarchy means "government by the few". Nothing will change on January 20. We'll still have a Senate. We'll still have a House of Representatives. We'll still have a Judiciary. We'll still have more...

    Orthodox YouTube

    This is inspired by someone here recently mentioning YouTube channels with Orthodox content. I had a bunch of Orthodox channels bookmarked, but awhile back I bought a new computer, and didn't import my bookmarks, and I don't remember the names of a lot of them. Plus there may be some I never...

    A Song To Warm Your Heart

    EDIT: I forgot I'm supposed to provide a description of the video. It's a song about how great Trump is, and why we should all support him.

    Are You Left Or Right?

    The words "left" and "right" in the political context can spark much discussion as to what they mean, but for this simple poll I'll assume everyone basically knows what they mean. And yes, the wording of the poll is a bit vague, and that's intentional.

    Is This AI?

    I stopped using Google for search years ago, but recently started using it again occasionally. The results page has something new on it, a section titled "People also ask", where it doesn't necessarily provide a link, but just answers related questions. I assumed this was done with AI, but today...

    St. Douglas?

    The other day I met a priest named Fr. Douglas. I'd never heard of a St. Douglas so I searched online and cannot find one except one 16th century RC saint. Two questions: is there an EO saint named Douglas? And, for some reason I'd always assumed that priests take the names of saints. Is that...

    Border Blasters

    This may or may not be a science question, I don't know. Yesterday I heard the ZZ Top song "I Heard It On The X", and was reminded of how, when I was a kid, we could pick up a Mexican radio station, but only after sunset. I found the Wiki article on "border blasters", and it mentions stations...

    Family Fun At The Biden's

    It's been confirmed that Ashley Biden's diary entries are for real including when she claimed President Biden showered with her when she was 11 years old. Maybe it's not as bad as it sounds. Maybe the reason he's always smelling female hair is that he's just overly obsessed with other people's...

    Striking A Blow Against Racism

    A bit of good news for the new year. The DEI office of Clackamas County, Oregon no less, has been entirely defunded and dismantled. Those employees will hopefully find useful work which doesn't just consist of sitting around doing nothing but fomenting hatred. Let's get this ball rolling...

    The Congressional Hearings

    https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/06/investing/bill-ackman-harvard-penn-antisemitism/index.html Anyone watch the testimony of the presidents of Harvard, M.I.T. and UPenn? I thought at one point it must be a well-produced show from the Babylon Bee, but disgustingly, it was real. Thankfully those three...

    Empire of God

    Was wondering if anyone here has read this book Empire of God: How the Byzantines Saved Civilization by Robert Spencer.
