Sorry for asking here, but does anybody know of a web page where you get to see someone's drawing and then you write a caption for it, then someone else will have the caption open on their monitor and they get to draw it, and on and on

The glass cockpit per se says nothing. All the rest does, though. http://www.aereo.jor.br/wp-content/uploads//2011/06/Cockpit-...

Really? You really think Embraer would go to Vice for its PR?

Even here in Brazil the Gracies are respected, but their outrageous claims are not taken seriously anymore. Every BJJ practioner laughs at Rickson's 400 win crap, and if you go on local forums, nobody claims BJJ is more than one aspect

Yeah, but life and politics sometimes are bigger than art. What about all those statues of Stalin in the soviet repulics that got taken down. Do we condemn those acts too? Or not, because they were actions of the people, and, you know, the

> I don't know of any other martial art where your formative years are spent being kicked up in the ass. Judo and Wrestling kicked my ass as much, if not more, than BJJ practice. Probably more, as they're both faster paced than

What new evidence? I searched for this a couple of months ago and found that the "Japanese were close to surrendering" is one more recent 'internet myth' that's been propagating lately, with no real hard, substantia

They dropped the first and Japan did not surrender. Only after the second. So, accepting it was the best way to end the war, it was necessary to use 2. From what I've read, many high officials still didn't want to accept the surre

You're saying this in a time when every good mma athlete has a very respectable BJJ game. Before that, people stuck to their art. It was either BJJ guys winning, or big wrestlers. Then people started to get more well-rounded. But I r

No, it was not born in the favelas. The article is right. The Gracies were never poor and never lived in favelas. I'm a Brazilian with a pretty good knowledge of BJJ history (my father watched Helio's fights, etc).

An Oculus Rift version would be more exciting, but I have no doubts that the only thing that would be left after a while would be the video-game like stuff (flying, diving, roller coasters, etc), and since you would have that as standalone

How do you keep them seasoned? I tried a couple of times, but couldn't get it right. Could you give me some tips?

Well, it's been almost ten years now since my punk friends from the US told me the Bay Area was gone and that the new punk/alternative capital was Portland. Don't know if it still is, but they had all moved there or somewhere

You read an average of one book a day? That's impressive.

Well, I'm talking about what happened 9 years ago. Maybe things have changed, though it doesn't seem like it from the other comments on this thread.

Joe Rogan is cool and all, but the stuff he praises is often in line with "whoa, i took this and it opened my eyes to the REAL reality, man". Not much science or thoroughness behind anything. One time I listened to this podcast wh

It was just like these, but you got to draw the vehicles instead of having them be generated.

Anyone knows of a simple simulator where you draw a bike/car (very simple model, just two wheels connected to the body by some simple lines, and then the model would run autonomously through a terrain, the purpose being to try and draw

Unfortunately, this is true. My vintage 90's Mac that runs System 7 feels faster and more responsive when word processing than my 2012 iMac.

I always laugh when I hear someone complaining about the WIMP model where their main argument is "it's been the same way for xx years, with no real innovation since its beginning". Right, and the steering wheel sucks so bad a

This is very interesting. I never thought about it. Someone who grows up seeing this kind of realism in videos and pictures alongside videos and pictures of real places, and just can't see any difference. Wow...

I haven't played any 3d video games in about 15 years. The video at the bottom of the page looked awesome, except for the edges of the water. I guess when they do Engine 5 they will finally change the name to 'Real Engine'.

I wonder what would go through in the russian people's minds when they saw that their shuttle was a rip-off of the american's. With all the competition to see who was better, how did they rationalize this?

by sanoli 11y ago
What do you mean botched shuttle design? They probably started copying its design from very early on.

He probably meant 2.05m (2 meters and 5 centimeters).
