Terrible things that should never see the light of day, revisited.
 
When this thread came out I had a lot of fun coming up with truely horrible ideas to inflict on the general population. I was very disappointed when the thread died, so I am bringing it back to life with a doozy:

A gamma laser, using a wavelength less than 10 picometers rather than harmless visible light.

I call it "cancer laser".

Professor Smarmiarty 04-11-2011 07:13 AM

It was only a matter of time
 
If by bad idea you mean fantastically useful idea then yes.

And most lasers don't use visible light, they use UV or IR or Xray. I'm pretty sure the Xray lasers we already have would give you cancer hard out. BUt so would half the chemicals in any chemistry departent. I'm not sure whether we should judge inventions by propensity to cause cancer if mishandled

Theory that Bohemian Rhapsody is about soccer. Or for sake of being more specific, about how one player gets a red card from refereer and is taken out of the game and how he feels that this may mean that his team will lose.

'Killed a man' meaning why the player got red card, and even before notice how 'Caught in a landslide/No escape from reality' is clever usage of symbolism to mean that you can't break game's rules.

Now the operatic part is, naturally, about how the player starts to question referee's judgment.

The rocking part is about screaming to referee that he 'can stone me and spit in my eye', meaning the referee did wrong choice and how the player must 'Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here'.

And the final phrase? 'Anyway the wind blows.' The game will continue. But the player is worried how it will go when he's not playing it.

Now take in account that We are champions is stated to be about football victory, We will rock you is also very nice choice to sing before the game, and that nobody will ever know what Bohemian Rhapsody was about until this day, I think my theory is 100% right.

Amake 04-11-2011 07:56 AM

Obviously in my world the primary use for lasers is anti-personnel weaponry, and the only thing stopping mad scientists from enslaving the world with ray guns is the fact they're not actually efficient as anti-personnel weaponry.

But anyway I didn't know we already had invisible lasers. That's quite interesting.

Pretty much all the useful lasers are invisible. If you see a visible laser it's quite likely they have put a visible laser along the same path for aligning purposes/hey don't walk into my laser.

But then you can't understand the director when he says "And I had to absolutely go with this cutscene because it makes total sense." or "I was so impressed with the characterization of the villian, that I gave the guy who came up with that a hefty raise." or even worse "I still think the Eidelons are overpowered, and I swear the entire enemy development team insisted on them being even more powerful to make them 'worthwhile to use'."

You probably have a point there, which is why it would be a terrible idea.

Here is a terrible idea that actually exists: Football at Hiram College (where I went to school). They are at the bottom of Division 3. In fact I do not know if they have won a game since I graduated. Hence the reason I am an Ohio State fan. Which brings us to another terrible idea that happened: Who the heck trades memorabilia from bowl games (which they should have known that it was against the rules) for a tatoo? Then the supposedly stand-up coach covers up the idiotic incident. There was a whole bunch of stupidity to go around. :crying:

I realize this is just a forum thread and all in good fun and I likely am being a wet blanket at this point, but definitions do not work that way. This bugs me. Please amend your logic to reflect the fact that a cannot mean a+b.


Otherwise I will just flood the facility with deadly neurotoxins.





OK I will be doing that anyway, but that's besides the point.

Archbio 04-16-2011 12:53 AM

My relevant degree in mixology tells me that a can indeed mean a+b. Derrida, something something quantum physics.

Like Gilgamesh was one third mortal, two thirds divine and a third Gilgamesh.

Professor Smarmiarty 04-16-2011 04:04 AM

What if B is zero. Or A is infinite and B is finite. Or I work in a scaling base A.
totally works.

Ecks 04-16-2011 12:34 PM

One thing I've learned to never question is the assertion that one person's logic may not gel with another's, but there is always some crazy ass math to back it up.

a can indeed equal a+b, for extremely low quantities of b.

Professor Smarmiarty 04-16-2011 12:44 PM

A+B=A but only when you are not looking at it.

The Sevenshot Kid 04-16-2011 01:18 PM

This.

McTahr 04-16-2011 01:37 PM

A + B = A
Subtract A

Nothing of any value or substance.

Ecks 04-16-2011 09:55 PM

Yeah, there's really nothing to add there. You would not believe the enormity of the nothing you are not missing out on. That particular imageboard is the deadest, emptiest, most unpopular thing on the interwebs, and not going there is totally and completely beneficial to the well being of your soul.

synkr0nized 04-17-2011 02:07 PM

You can imagine steam coming out of my ears if you'd like. It's not, but it's funny.
 
These were words, not mathematical values despite my use of "a+b".


I will just link this thread in the "hate" thread.

Professor Smarmiarty 04-17-2011 02:54 PM

Words are symbolic representation of things, however. Things that we can model with maths by assigning numeric values. Same as Peanuts+Nothing=Peanuts

Just cause they're allowed to market that concoction as orange juice under whatever passes for consumer rights legislation over at your place doesn't turn it back to orange juice you know.

(Over here you need a minimum of 96% fruit juice content to use the word "juice" in your drink's brand name or advertising.)

Which would mean orange juice + something else = orange juice.

Well, there's no orange juice actually called "orange juice" that I know of*. They'll say things like "Good Morning 98% orange juice" on the box. The point is that juice + additives =/= plain juice.

It's more like orange juice + something else = orange juice' (o.j. prime).

As the juice that is added to the something else is not the exact same as the juice that is produced.

Professor Smarmiarty 04-18-2011 02:57 AM

But we still give it the same name which is pretty much the point. It's the same as lots of other food ingredients. you buy a chocolate bar- it's not all chocolate. You go buy some milk, it's not all milk.
But it's an acceptable use of the term, and indeed standard practice, to call "orange juice+sugar+additivies" juist "orange juice".

BitVyper 04-18-2011 05:19 AM

I never suggested it was.

I mean, if we actually wanted to take this as more than a one-shot bit of absurdist humour, you can strip away all the components of NPF out and still have an NPF as long as the server still exists. That would be a forum in its basest form. Everyone brings their toys and games, and all the places they've been into the mix and the community evolves or breaks down, but it's still NPF. If there's a point at which you've add enough other things that it stops being NPF, it's when the community realises they've become a different place and decides to change the name. Which makes it rather arbitrary, since you could pick any spot in a forum's existence and reasonably do this, but language IS arbitrary. The name becomes what we mean and we become what the name means. Hell, the only reason Nuklear Power Forum is particularly definitive of this place is because we keep using it as a title. What percentage of threads made in the last year are even about Nuklear Power?

I think the fact that language has become so central to humanity has given us the odd little delusion that words equal objective truths. That's particularly troubling when it comes to the names of things.

Also pretty contrary to most current linguistic theories which generally treat words as abstractions/symbols/pointers.

A far more relevant question is, however: If I colour orange juice blue is it still orange juice
I'm thinking no. It is clearly blue juice.
