He finally was proven right on gravitational waves.

They are real.

Read about this the other day.

Seems a little flawed to just assume it's caused by gravitational waves, even if that is the most likely answer.

the iqriquois talked about gravitational waves over 300 years ago; they just used a different name.

Fail

Does anyone else think it's totally boss that these gravitational waves were created by three suns worth of mass being converted into the waves?

A mathematical formula on gravity predicted we'd get exactly these results in exactly these circumstances. When that circumstance happened, we got the exact predicted results in multiple detectors set up in spread-out locations.


It's an assumption akin to someone saying, "Hm, I predict this satellite will de-orbit in 2 months and land on exactly this spot," and marking it with an X.

Then the impact happening, and someone seeing the melted bit of metal on the X and going, "... it might not be the satellite."


There's coincidental, and then there's calling something precise a 100 years in advance.

If it's not gravity waves, it's something that matches the equations for gravity waves to such an incredible degree that I don't know what to call it but gravity waves.

Fair enough. I only read that the waves weren't in sync not that it matched their calculations.

What?

Anyway, I'd like to hear Astner's opinion on this.

Did the Iqriquois ever tell their wives before marrying them "do not expect intimacy nor fidelity" like a pimp?

well he sounds like scum

Well I don't know, wouldn't it be scummier to hide these things from his wife? He told them exactly what they'd be getting into.

Yeah, but what about the women? They weren't forced into it. For whatever reason it still appealed to them.

hey surtur. we can be friends but i will rape you daily and beat you.

But if I say okay to that it is not rape is it?

just because you agree at first doesn't mean you will agree all the time. you can't make future promises for sex. consent is based on the particular time of the act.

this conversation got really weird

Okay but this wasn't exactly saying he will rape you, just that he won't be faithful. Essentially the women consented to an open marriage.

Hey you two homo's, back on topic.

i'm mostly talking about not showing affection. it's proven that people need that

do you agree to our friendship of never ending rapes and beatings or not

You haven't even bought me dinner yet. Not cool man.
