[QUOTE=Vbits;25163617]why are gold members mostly the smart people here.[/QUOTE] Hope that wasn't reference to anything close to the assumption that I'm smart.
Well, the [I]really[/I] dumb gold members are usually victims of the revocation thread, and the ones that aren't are smart enough to stay unbanned, somehow. I've still seen some unbelievably unintelligent golds, though.
Like me, anyway. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSUl49ie6ic&playnext=1&videos=6umACk4ZONw&feature=mfu_in_order[/url] Hello
How [I]did[/I] you get gold?
[QUOTE=Computermaster;25163507]I'm not sure, but it's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.[/QUOTE] I knew someone would refer to that, cool.
He's friends with Hezzy
I'm friends with Lithi Bryan
[QUOTE=Hizzle;25164883]I'm friends with Lithi Bryan[/QUOTE] Oh, that's cool. [editline]06:29PM[/editline] So Lithifold? I don't know many people on Facepunch by their real names.
I'm Rob or, as many people call me, 'cunt'. o/
Gravitational waves are awesome!
Buy more. Buy more now. And be happy. [editline]09:47PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Nautsabes;25165461]Gravitational waves are awesome![/QUOTE] Yes this is true.
Black holes are just pricks though. [editline]09:49PM[/editline] Space stuff on NatGeo. [editline]09:49PM[/editline] Oh shit, we're heading toward the Andromeda Galaxy! We're gonna die!
Not if the emprah can save us

Or JC - Helios
I'd hate to be a star that got thrown off the tail end of a galaxy. Must be so lonely floating around in nothingness. [editline]10:02PM[/editline] Fresh reformat, what should I download? [editline]10:05PM[/editline] So before the big bang everything was condensed into a small dot. What did the nothingness that the dot rested in look like? Black?
All we'd have to do is induce a massive amount of spin to a forming star can cause it to go Supergiant and Supernova, thus creating a black hole with two event horizons and a ring-shaped singularity. Spin it fast enough and the event horizons could combine and shrink into the singularity, exposing it to space, viewable and explorable. Such an effect could also be done with electromagnetism, but there is no way for a star to attain enough power through that force in order for the resulting black hole to fuse its event horizons and expose the singularity. Singularities and black holes are why I want to become a theoretical physicist. [QUOTE=Nautsabes;25165686] Fresh reformat, what should I download?[/QUOTE] CCleaner, Defraggler, MSE
I wish I could be one. All the things I'm really interested in, I'm no good at and all the things I'm good at I don't like. :saddowns: I fucking hate working with clay but damn if I can't sculpt awesome shit.
I'm hungry. I'm gonna go look something to eat I think.
[QUOTE=Nautsabes;25166013]I wish I could be one. All the things I'm really interested in, I'm no good at and all the things I'm good at I don't like. [/QUOTE] Yeah. Ever since I was four I've wanted to program games and work for Nintendo specifically, but as I got older I realized that physics is also a field that I want to study and major in. It's leaving me with a dilemma in what to major in and what to abandon. Attempt to transfer to DigiPen and give up my dream of being a physicist, or pursue theoretical physics and give up my lifelong quest to work for Nintendo? :argh:
Go for the physics. Then, many years down the road, after you retire, you could program games about theoretical physics in your free time.

I'll most likely get myself a private math tutor once I start school. [editline]10:39PM[/editline] If I get all math smart and become a theoretical physicist we three should start some sort of physics team. In the name of the Emprah.
[QUOTE=Nautsabes;25166229]Go for the physics. Then, many years down the road, after you retire, you could program games about theoretical physics in your free time.[/QUOTE] But only people that major in physics would want to play games that revolve around theoretical physics. Half-Life is a game that's [I]supposed[/I] to be about it, but ends up being a first-person shooter with the protagonist not performing any actions that anyone else could have done. Half-Life 2 keeps the same formula but mostly removes the theoretical physics element. You're Doctor Gordon Freeman, an MIT graduate that majored in theoretical physics and is at the top of his field, and he suits up in an armored suit and kills aliens instead of doing what he's spent his life training for. He may be the savior of the human race and the bane of the Combine, but nothing he ever does involves utilizing his training to accomplish his goals. His old colleagues have developed the teleporter that he so desired to create in his 20 year absence, the zero-point energy field manipulator was given to him as a weapon, not a tool, developed by his friends. He himself managed the miraculous feat of storming Nova Prospekt only because he had a massive army helping him and the weapons of a tank to decimate his foes and rescue his friends. He's trusted to disable the Citadel's Dark Energy Core, but all that it required to slow down the meltdown was powering up the suppressors. Even Alyx Vance does the work that he's been trained to do while he does the work of a soldier. He was trained for physics, but ended up accomplishing nothing towards his goals and saved the human race instead. Despite Half-Life's theme of a physicist being able to save the world, it never actually includes any physics beyond using a lever to get to a higher place. But [I]it's fun[/I], and classified as one of the greatest games of all time., and inspires me to try and create such marvels for other people to experience. I'll never be able to live with myself if I don't learn enough and do enough to get hired by Nintendo, but I won't forgive myself for giving up physics to solely make games, and I'd like to do both before I end up in retirement age.
Can I enter the team? I suck in virtually anything you can possibly think I can be the test subject!!!

He did throw that switch and all! His MIT education practically pays for itself.
