An illustration of approaching things with Gunner-Chan's philosophy in mind, almost as literally as possible.

RIP Anon, there is no greater pursuit to lose ones life to.

I don't get it. There's no mention of poi at all.

You know... Every time I hear a discussion about Shakey Cam I am kind of filled with two reactions

If it is negative... I want to say how shakey cam is excellent in sort of capturing an eratic "I don't know what is going on" feel that is perfect for a character who is in a panic... such as if a bomb just went off in a building in what was otherwise a calm movie.

Yet if it is positive. I want to say how abused it is and how often it is just used to hide the poor choreography and cinematography. Making us basically have to hold it in good faith that what we are seeing is awesome instead of actually showing us something awesome.

The only game I know for a fact I can run is KSP, because the launcher gets around's Steam's login bullshit.

this is why I don't have steam

Now I'm scared. Is it really that bad?

Mixing Hydrogen Peroxide, Sodium Hydroxide, and Baking Soda with any acidic substance in the right amounts could make quite a fizzy solution, but depending on the relative acidity/alkalinity of the concentrations used it's probably harmless.

Depends on the concentration of those materials. Hydrogen peroxide bought at a pharmacy? No big deal. Highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide? Horrifically terrifying stuff, as detailed in "Ignition!" on page 71 here: http://fringe.davesource.com/Fringe/Explosives/Ignition.An-Informal-History-of-Liquid-Rocket-Propellants.John-D-Clark.pdf

"For when we —and other people —tried it again (fortunately on a
smaller scale) the results were different. The jet fuel burns quietly
at first, then the flare burning starts coming, and its frequency increases.
(That's the time to start running.) Then, as the layer of JP
gets thinner, the peroxide underneath gets warmer, and starts to
boil and decompose, and the overlying fuel is permeated with oxygen
and peroxide vapor. And then the whole shebang detonates, with
absolutely shattering violence."

Increasing the heat greatly speeds up decomposition into oxygen, which fuels any reaction involving fire. Which greatly increases the heat. And so on until it explodes.

My truck runs perfectly, but it often breaks a radiator or something so I dumped it into a ditch and haven't looked back since.

I would be upset with Steam for not working.  It has practically always worked fine for me, so I like it.  But other people have situations where they run into login problems, and that sounds really frustrating.  I use it on my laptop without internet sometimes, but apparently not long enough to run into the problems.

On Tuesday a girl in my chemistry class exploded

Whoops.

This reminds me, when I was in the lab on Friday, I learned that an employee - i.e. a full-blown be-degree'd independent scientist - spent nearly an hour working under a laminar flow hood with a UV lamp on - and the hood's glass does not have a UV filter.

Mind you, this stuff is used to murderize absolutely all living and arguably living things in the hood. And she was exposed to this for an hour. Ouch.

Steam.
Steam I'm connected to WiFi.
Steam just please update.
Steam please.

It could be that whoever set up the wifi has steam blocked. are you in a public place?

Well you're pretty contrarian on the whole, so it's not really surprising.

I can't log in to Steam. I think my steam account may have been hacked again, but I'm not 100% sure; when I went to steam support it just had a message saying "Steam servers are under maintenance", but the rest of Steam's website seems to be up and not under maintainance, so I don't know if I just can't log in because it's under maintainence or if I've been hacked again.

Oh thank the Lord and thank BOB Dobbs; If you can't log in either then I guess they're server really is down then and I probably haven't been hacked again.

Are you still unable to log in? Because I still can't log in.
