The other person has your profile blocked from seeing that they exist or, more likely, 3. The other person has their privacy settings set high enough that no one can see what they do unless they're friends.

I'm trying to create a facebook page for a local artist. The setup page has a question: "Is _____ a real celebrity or famous person? This will help people find this celebrity or famous person more easily on Facebook." Is that asking if the person is a real person, or is it asking if the person is genuinely famous? I was presuming the latter, but now I'm not so sure.

So I've got an antennae to get those digital over the air channels on my HDTV. What's weird is that I get my standard network channels, but I also get these "sub" channels. So NBC is on channel 17. Normally (back in the days when I was a kid and had antennae TV), I'd expect that to be on channel 17. However, I get that on "17-1." And I also have a 17-2 and 17-3, which are different channels. Why are things arranged like that? Are those just other channels broadcasted by the NBC affiliate?

EATIN SHRIMP posted:Car/maybe a physics question. Say you're driving at 60 mph and gradually slow down to 20 mph where you remain for like 1000 feet or something, then you bring it back up to 60 as fast as you can. Will you go from 20-60mph faster than the time it takes to go from 20-60mph from a stop? Or if you go from 0-20 where you stay for a bit and then go to 60? If it's different is it because of the way the engines work or does it have anything to do with momentum or something? That's way too complex of a question, but let's look into it! For this problem, I'll assume you're driving a 2014 Honda Civic, because that's the first car I found the stats for. This car has the following characteristics (converted to SI units): Acceleration: 0-26.82 meters per second (m/s) in 9.1 seconds Deceleration: 26.82 - 0 in 35.97 meters So let's crunch some numbers! For those first two, I can calculate the rate that the car accelerates. Assuming uniform acceleration (not reality), this car took 9.1 seconds to accelerate to 26.82 meters per second. This means it has an acceleration of 2.95 meters per second per second. Knowing that it decelerated to stop in 35.97 meters, we can calculate that it can decelerate at a uniform rate of 2.68 meters per second per second. So, it looks like the car can accelerate faster than it can decelerate.

There's a Dairy Queen in my city in the old part of town. It has an amazing statistic that is unrivaled by any other fast food place I have ever been to. It has a 100% fry success rate. I'm not kidding. Every single time I have gone to this place, which, a few years ago, was rather frequent because I worked a half mile away, the fries have been perfect. Never soggy, always crispy, always perfectly seasoned. It's uncanny. What is the best way for me to give them recognition for this?

razorrozar posted:2. What is the definition of "dogwhistle racism"? I see it used a lot, and I can't quite figure it out from context. After (Black) NFL player Richard Sherman made his infamous rant on live television, the word used the next day on television over six hundred times to describe him (meaning not random youtube comments, but actual real life journalists and pundits) was "thug." This references the colloquial definition of a thug as an angry, violent and dangerous Black male from the ghetto. They were essentially referring to him negatively by his Blackness, but not explicitly saying it. There's really no other way it could have been used, because the dictionary definition is "a violent criminal," and that makes no sense. Going off on a rant at another player has nothing to do with being a violent criminal. So, it's clear they were using it to describe him as a ghetto trash Black guy with baggy pants, blaring his rap music, making them lock their doors when he pulls up next to them at a stoplight, "you know the one I'm talking about *wink nudge nudge*". Hence, the dogwhistle. If challenged, they most likely would have claimed, "Oh, no, it had nothing to do with him being Black, I would have said that about anyone!" But this has been shown time and again to not be the case. the fucked around with this message at 06:33 on Aug 2, 2014 |

If she asks, just say your schedule is busy and that you'll call her back when you have more free time. Then don't call her back.

regulargonzalez posted:4) People are not evacuated for propaganda purposes (Hamas: "Israel just killed 20 innocent people with their missile!") So, if Israel knows this happens, why do they send the missiles knowing that they're likely going to be blowing up innocent civilians? Isn't that generally a horrible thing to do?

Turtlicious posted:I want to take pictures of my girlfriend's cat with something a little nicer then my camera phone. What's a good recommendation? how much money are you willing to spend for cat photos also, you should be able to take fairly decent quality photos with a camera phone these days, especially if you have something new like an iPhone 5 or a galaxy S. The important thing is to make sure you have good lighting. Do it outside with a lot of natural light, or during a sunny day inside. Make sure the light is facing the cat. And turn off the flash.
