Of course that is true but our discussions are mostly about religion or alternative medicine, or ghosts and angels and the like. I don't dismiss them outright but I am very scepticle about claims people make about these.
I believe science is based on beliefs. Not only can you do no science if you keep having to check if h, and e still have the same value, but much of science begins with the belief that a certain hypothesis might be the base of a good theory. On the other hand, if someone writes down an alternative to an established theory, many scientists will often dismiss it outright because of their strong beliefs in the existing theory.
I kicked IFLS off my FB timeline because IFLS has nothing to do with science and I found it quite annoying.
I often argue with my mother about many things including religion, and she once told me: "You believe nothing, you with your stupid science!" I was quite shocked, because she was right but called science 'stupid' in one go.
If you connect your iPhone to a computer that has iTunes running you don't have to throw things away. That saves you a lot of work. Besides, many people recommend to make a full backup of your iDevice first and then do a clean install. I never do that
On my iPad 3 it works fine.
I agree. I found it quite offensive actually.
You think XP was bad, but Win95 made me switch to Linux. And Linux made me switch to OSX 10 years later.
It's always 90% photgrapher, 10% equipment. You have to learn to use your equipment, and that holds for a mobile phone as well as a DSLR with good lenses. And you need talent. That's all in the 90%.
You have a point there. We also had loads of rain. Luckily we coped well with it, no floods here, which is quite an achievement for a country which has one half lying below sea level. But snow is something we don't handle well anymore since the 1990s.
The Netherlands had a very warm winter last year so this one must be quite severe compared to the last one. It would be nice to have a thick layer of snow again for a change. Last time that happened is already a few years ago.
Airbags don't do much good if you're not buckled up. They can't keep your whole body from slamming into the steering wheel and dashboard. So even with an airbag you will still break your legs and slam your head into the windscreen when you're not using the safety belt. Airbags are designed to protect only your head and upper torso from hitting the steering wheel when you are buckled up.
Indeed it was so bad that I stopped reading halfway. The person who wrote this clearly didn't get anything of what the scientists are trying to do in this project.
Cool, thanks!
Cool, thanks!
