Do Slashdot users still need to be taught to "hold their beliefs up to experimentation"? And do they need to be taught this by a reality TV show?
My concern with pop skeptics is that they don't believe in holding their beliefs up to experimentation, and instead decide what is "woo" based upon their feelings.
Until Mythbusters confirms it, I'll just say it's Plausible.
Mythbusters' pop skepticism is the very definition of junk science.
If you're waiting for confirmation from Penn Jillette or some other aging magician or Skeptical Inquirer, you missed out on a successful career as an economist.
I've never heard of either Razer
Razer is one of the biggest manufacturers of specialty gaming hardware for PCs, including keyboards, controllers, mice, high-performance mousepads, and headsets.
They've been around since 1998 and have around 400 employees. Don't confuse them with a kickstarter campaign.
a little rumba that comes out and vacuums up the crumbs from my desk and keyboard.
Make it look like an official NHL hockey puck and I'm in for 2. Or, combine a miniature Roomba with a quadracopter so it could just hover over my desk and suck up the dirt. Wait though, I guess if it's hovering it's pushing air down and all that's gonna do is blow the dust everywhere and irritate my eyes and sinuses. OK, forget that last one. But a quadracopter that could vacuum up dust (if it was physically possible) would be cool as hell, and it would prevent my cat from trying to sit on my keyboard all the time because my cat hates those miniature quadracopters. I mean hates as in wants to kill them but is too scared to do anything but run under the furniture and hiss and growl.
Wait, what about a beer & wine cooler and a little arm that would serve me a fresh one or a refill? Innovation!
Or a little quadracopter that would freshen up my drink when it sensed the fluid level in my glass got below 20%.
There's got to be something I can do with a miniature quadracopter besides terrorize my cat.
It has to stop or we're going to start actually hating each other.
I'll never hate you, Karmashock.
In fact, I wish I knew how to quit you.
But mine is directly related to sabermetrics....and....nevermind.
I understand, but we're talking about baseball, and every conversation about baseball eventually gets around to Bull Durham.
I just went directly there instead of waiting.
People I didn't mention that could be honest so far as I know:
Scott Walker
Ben Carson
Rand Paul
Ted Cruz
John Kasich
Bobby Jindal
George Pataki
Jim Gilmore
We can take them one at a time:
Scott Walker:

Carson:
"A lot of people who go into prison straight, and when they come out they’re gay."
Rand Paul:

Ted Cruz:

John Kasich:

After that, the list becomes too trivial to fact-check. "George Pataki'? Really?
... can we try to vote for someone that hasn't been CAUGHT lying... yet?
So, you're a Bernie Sanders supporter?
Which of the GOP hopefuls hasn't been caught lying yet?
By the way, where are these panels being made?
They're being made in countries that started subsidizing their solar industries years ago.
Shouldn't we collectively agree on what is needed, before we collectively decide to pay for them? Is this a democratic republic?
You can have one or the other. You can be a "democratic republic" or you can decide things by "collective" agreement. Which one do you prefer?
As long as we're doing baseball movie quotes:
"Man that ball got outta here in a hurry. I mean anything travels that far oughta have a damn stewardess on it, don't you think?"
The best part is, when you want to send a message to someone that cannot be forwarded and self-destructs, you first have to send it to this Dmail company's server in the cloud where it will exist forever.
And since most of the people using this "non-forwarding self-destructing message system" will be people sending threats and harassment to ex-girlfriends, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if this entire thing is one big honey trap.
Sylvester the Cat has announced that he's opening a shelter for homeless canaries.
What does religion have to do with any of this?
Because the original copyrighted joke that this article happens to be about invokes god.
So to answer your question, religion has nothing to do with any of this, but God does.
Neutrinos have bad breadth.
