    Bombing in Boston today, two dead, at least 20 injured.

    Has already been posted by Djabthrash and got debunked in the same link he posted. I really wonder how some people are able to turn on their computer on their own. "This guy got hurt and in that one pic he doesn't behave the way I think he should behave. He is an actor, bro. Ancient aliens...

    Bombing in Boston today, two dead, at least 20 injured.

    How exactly would one prove you/the theory wrong? Everything can be made to fit the conspiracy theory. Whenever something gets "debunked", the conspiracy theorist can simply come up with some other random claims and the game starts again. In other words: name the circumstances under which you...

    Equator D5 monitor review

    Thread has been bumped recently, so I hope it's ok to post something in here. ;) I consider buying the Equators. The alternatives that I have in mind are: http://www.thomann.de/gb/krk_rp5_g2_rokit.htm http://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_b1031a.htm However, the D5's seem to be superior...

    Nuclear Energy

    What does pharma have to do with physics? Physics is a science, pharma is not. So-called "bad pharma" is rather a good example of what happens when the scientific method isn't used. If they actually used the scientific method, they wouldn't sell homeopathy and other alternative-, i.e. pseudo...

    The Veggie Thread

    Wow. So I don't want X, hence I want Y? A logical propaedeutic probably wouldn't hurt. Care to elaborate? (it's not like I've never had this exact argument before, but I'm just curious with what kind of nonsense you can come up to rationalise this)

    The Veggie Thread

    I don't know what you mean by the 'vegan girls'-thing but people are vegan for very different reasons. Some are because they think it's healthier, some are because they think it's better for the environment and some are for ethical reasons or a combination of these reasons. I'm vegan because I...

    Yep, protein combining (the theory that you have to combine foods in one meal) is bs. :) However, there are non-soy vegan foods which contain all essential amino acids, i.e. they have a amino acid score >= 100. F.e.: http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/cereal-grains-and-pasta/10352/2...

    The Veggie Thread

    I was responding to DanLights. Then you have to tell everyone to be aware of the possible health risks associated with the foods they consume - especially if they aren't vegan. No offense intended and I don't want to come off like a prick but I'm just kinda fed up with the 'oh, you're...

    The Veggie Thread

    http://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282%2809%2900966-2/abstract You don't have to be more concerned about the phytoestrogens in soy products than about the estrogens in animal products (which, other than phytoestrogens, are actually estrogens). But who would've thought that there are...

    Vegan since 4 years; if you need any help, feel free to PM me. However, you don't need multivitamins; just make sure you get a good Vitamin B12 supplement (i.e. methylcobalamin). You can get everything else from the delicious meals you make. :)

    Need advice: Midi/Master-Keyboard

    So, I started to make some electronic music (mostly D'n'B and 'beats' ;) ) and I would like to buy a master-keyboard since programming everything with my mouse is quite frustrating. I will continue to program drums with my mouse but I use a few different synth-VSTis and coming up with melodies...
