  1. +Gary Bates It's a song of mourning. The city was destroyed, and the survivors were shipped off to Babylon. Pretend a country invaded, destroyed your country, burned the capital, destroyed your monuments, and took the survivors back to be slaves. While you're the circus act for their higher ups, maybe you start wishing that all your captors were dead. Including the children- they killed your children afterall, shouldn't they feel the same thing? Psalms are songs. They capture the feeling of the author at the moment.

  2. It's white noise. It'd be a lot more annoying if they stopped and started all the time.

  3. You're a good cook. But you were cooking for yourself rather than for the two of you. And probably still are. My parents always discussed the menu... and sometimes when they couldn't agree on something they really felt like for that day it meant we'd be having something like lasagna and chow mein. And that was okay! I'm happy you can cook again if you want to be cooking! And I'm happy be seems to be liking it! But make sure you're getting feedback so you can cook to your audience! Personally, I love a nice fancy meal... but after a long day of work I'd usually just as well have some comfort food.

  4. +Brock Molloy Why do you need to reference a splatter film? His inspiration at 0:42. Stabbed to death by natives.

  5. This is as per his earlier video, early March. Covid was a thing, but there were about as many TOTAL cases confirmed in the whole USA as we get every 2 minutes now.

  7. This was early March. There were about 100 total cases in the whole USA.

  8. What a difference permission makes. This is all reviewed.

  9. This was first week of March or so. Covid was a thing, but as far as USA cases were concerned, it was flat 0 on the Y-axis by current graphs. ~100 total cases known in the USA. About 2 minutes worth of spread at our current rate.

  10. ISS has the low gravity issue. And in orbit they're in constant freefall, right? So it's not even your body adjusting to 90% gravity if they were just floating up there, but rather amounts to zero gravity. Right? I'm not the physicist here. Constantly falling, but never really have to push up against anything. Your body doesn't have to hold your weight. So the "exercise" your body normally gets while you say, just stand there, or just sit there... it doesn't get so much of and weakens beyond even just sitting as a blob on a chair all day. Sub, it's pretty much just normal, right? And they seem quite active to me. Seems they'd just need a way to do some weight training if their job doesn't have significant heavy lifting involved.

  11. General science stuff. But don't forget the shortest distance between the US East Coast and China and North Korea, and the US West Coast and Russia and Iran, is more or less over the arctic.

  12. Absolutely 100% sure they have all this info already.

  13. What's the SI for "depth of water" specifically?

  14. Frankly, this was probably spied out to the degree they're showing us by the mid '70s.

  15. The point wasn't to sink the ship. The point was to test weapons on it and give training to personnel. Sinking the ship before the exercise was over would have been the %#^ up.

  16. The rocket stuff is cool but I don't know how practical it really is for most people. So i I just wanted to say that price being equal, 2 medium pizzas is usually better than 1 large.

  17. Came back to this video... and... what, this was a year and a half ago!?!?! Dang. Where'd the time go...

  18. Uhh... March 4th there were 158 reported cases in the US.

  19. To an extent. But America would have to actually be overthrown. Usurped from inside. That's the required play. You can't damage a nuclear power to the point that they decide "well, ^#*?&! it"

  20. I'm sure there are some things "missed" as well.

  21. My dad explained it something like when it's cold, you pull this switch over and then turn it back after pulling the cord, and otherwise you don't. So thanks for explaining what's actually happening.

  22. Paraphrasing, "60 to 84 is about a 25% increase..." ahh, even if you're a rocket scientist it's better not to do math while recording. heh

  23. We'll see what they do, but I don't think it matters so much for the Ohio-class. The submarine in the video is for all sorts of purposes- apparently with some freedom to choose what to do in particular. But all but four of the Ohio class submarines are pretty much just supposed to hide.

  24. Video is from early March.

  25.  @ChrisGugliuzza  There were about 100 cases total in the whole USA then. We get that many every 2 minutes now.

  26.  @ChrisGugliuzza  Indeed. But policy isn't so omniscient. Trump put a travel ban on the EU starting March 11th. A week after this. And everyone had a fit. Europeans, Democrats, probably some Republicans. And then it got worse and they started saying he should have done it earlier. They were complaining he had even done it at all. Then the went back and started complaining he was too slow. This is hindsight... and we don't even have hindsight 20/20 yet. We just have some hindsight. As of March 5th or whenever he went, infection in the US still appeared under control. Frankly infection all over the world hadn't taken off THAT badly yet either- which is why people still had a fit when he closed off Europe a week later.
