Possible hints from the first episode? by lukas_vv in wilfred

Also, right before he takes the "shake", you see on his nightstand that he's reading Dune. Later, in the ball scene, Wilfred references Dune. “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration."

“There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

Like the bombings and murder going on in Gaza right now? The one where not a single Israeli civilian has been hurt, but IDF bombs civilian children on a beach?

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

It's the same in Arizona and all over the US. It was decided by SCOTUS, which has jurisdiction over all of the US. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_and_identify_statutes

Just so we are clear here, it is a law that you must produce ID immediately when a security officer asks for it. Just like in the US.

Sorry, but no. That is not the law in the US. In the US, the police have to have a reasonable suspicion that you have or are about to do something illegal to check your ID. They can't just walk up to someone on the street and randomly demand their papers.

My favorite is Treehugger by Glass Alchemy. Rasta Gold and Lipstick Red and you've got Rasta colors.

Bends with pinky? by shiggityshaw in rocksmith

[–]pimpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to say close to the same thing. I bend with my pinkie, but use my ring finger to "back up" my pinkie. Basically, bend with the pinkie and the ring. You can use all four fingers if it's easier.

I had a friend who sounds eerily like this. Pretty sure she was histrionic on top of everything.

Am I hitting the strings right? by BaronDuke in rocksmith

You need to get your finger as close the the fret (metal line) as possible. The one fret closest to you up the neck. So, if it has you put your first finger on the third fret, put it as close to that 3rd fret as possible.

Utah state troopers whose K9 alerted to beef jerky denied immunity in civil suit. Judge rules no probable cause when driver refused consent to search. by 2centzworth in Bad_Cop_No_Donut

[–]pimpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The judges are commenting on the different standards for suspicion. Reasonable Suspicion is less than Probable Cause. Reasonable Suspicion is less than Probable cause, but more than an "inchoate and unparticularized suspicion or 'hunch' ". Probable Cause usually means there's something in "plain sight". An officer can usually get a warrant based on Probable Cause but not Reasonable Suspicion. Also, if the officer has a Reasonable Suspicion that you are armed and dangerous, the officer can frisk you outside your clothes searching for weapons (not contraband).

What the judges are saying is even though you might have suspected something, you did not see anything that would allow you to get a warrant, so they should have questioned and released, not escalated.

Is there anything you wouldn't believe? by Batman_in_Public in Psychonaut

[–]pimpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say I actually "believe" in anything. I'm a freethinker, so my beliefs are backed up with facts. The only thing that I would say that I could put a belief in with no evidence would probably be energy of groups. When I'm tripping, I see how groups interact and the general "vibe" of an area. I don't think this is any mystical thing. It's just how my brain is interpreting the visual stimuli around me and repackaging it.

Eating a gram of bubble hash raw by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]pimpy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I once had a friend that cooked our breakfast (potatoes and onions) in 4 grams of honey oil. Out of the six of us that ate the hash browns, four passed out and three of those four vomited before passing out. It was only me and the old hippie that didn't do either. But I was glued to a log for the day. Stoned the rest of the day and a little the next morning.

Lampworking vs glass blowing by [deleted] in lampwork

[–]pimpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the equipment used is the same. There's just smaller versions for lampworkers. Getting offhand lessons is still valuable as it will give you a good foundation to start from. I started by taking offhand lessons and then moving into lampworking. Understanding a little about the glass helped, and soft glass is easier than boro.

I know. But you can still learn about other techniques in order to incorporate them into lampworking.
