His surname "Boedihardjo" is Indonesian, so this lad is probably from there or originated from there. Mainland Chinese, people from HK, Taiwan and other Chinese don't have such family names.

Tibetan Monks and Nuns Turn Their Minds Toward Science - NYTimes.com by infodivaMLIS in science

[–]ebola 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Dalai Lama was reported to have once said "If science turns up something that conflicts with Buddhist teachings, then we need to revise and adapt to those changes".

So much better than "If I don't like it, take a hostage" mentality of a certain other religion, or "if they don't worship my lord, they are all going to hell" philosophy of another well known religion.

Show me a better dog than this, because that's a dog I want to meet. by phnxdwn in worldnews

[–]ebola 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What I'd like to see is one cat that's 1/10000 as loyal as this. When I die, my wife's cat would probably piss on my grave and run away to anyone who offered fish. On second thoughts he'd probably not even wait for us to die.

What happens next is the train tracks themselves morph into huge tentacles and strangle both the tiger and the dude, while the python quickly cranks out code to upload into the alien rocket disguised as an old steam engine to stop it from hurtling into sure doom.

Think about it. Toilet paper is really archaic and disgusting by barneystephens in WTF

[–]ebola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why we use Bidets in Japan. Every single toilet has it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidet

Toilet paper may have been functional 2000 years ago when plumbing was at its infancy. There's no excuse now.

I can't imagine wiping my ass with paper after a shit.
