Inside Out - A Personal History of Pink Floyd by Nick Mason. Nick Mason is the drummer of PF, and as the book claims, has been the only member of the core 4 that has never officially left the band for any period of time. It's a personal memoir in chronological order, so the details get fuzzy...

No. We watched it at university for a class on Classical history and archaeology. Laughs were had, but we had to keep talking to each other about the strangeness of it to prevent ourselves from getting bored to tears. What I remember of it is a very sensual Angelina Jolie talking to her son in...

Relevant to me, what's the obsession with expensive guitars? There are endless videos on YouTube showing the contrast between guitars that cost just north of $100 USD and others that cost well in the excess of $4,000. They tend to show while there are differences in the sound made, they aren't...

Star Wars. I only came into being my own person capable of appreciating the world around me at the time Revenge of the Sith came out. I saw the previous two, but can't remember seeing them at all. I thought it was fun enough, but it apparently didn't catch me the way the series tends to catch...

Is the userbase so wanting for a fight with the mods it'll defend Epyc Wynn? Dude was mercilessly annoying and proud of it. He would also incessantly advocate for piracy and rallying against the mods, which would have resulted in the same treatment for anybody. There's a reason he has been...

Eh, WW has the same jokes and fights over and over again in every thread. I was looking for varied and serious(ish) submissions. It's not a still though, it's a video. The spider is called Cyclocosmia or colloquially the Chinese Hourglass Spider...

This situation may be or can easily lead to a depressive state. Talking to friends about it or a professional about it seems like a good start.

Post things that make no sense. How in the hell does that happen? It looks like someone sliced off the back half but it just healed over. Zombie spider! Or the Aztec gods designed the back half. Shame it's a trapdoor spider so its most distinctive feature remains hidden. Let us...

Done a lot better by Joe Cocker. OT: I have two examples and in a rare case, everyone seems to be on the same page as me. The Matrix sequels and the prequels to Alien. In both cases, a critical member or members of the original creative team is on board and they really are trying but...

So now for a subject near and dear to my heart. Premier Exhibitions [http://www.premierexhibitions.com/corporate/all/rms-titanic-inc], known for their subsidiary RMS Titanic Inc. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premier_Exhibitions#RMS_Titanic_Inc._2], is looking to get rid of a 9 million pound...

My best guess is they hit it at an odd angle, increasing the material and not delivering the full force of the bullet. Or even just a fluke that couldn't be repeated and wasn't. The dude consented to it and there were 30 other people besides the two. I don't think she should be charged with...

Didn't watch that Mythbusters episode where even a .22 made decent headway through a book? And a .357 magnum obliterated it?

I will say that I'm becoming even more of an anomaly here. I don't play any modern games. They don't appeal to me. I have no intent of buying a current generation console and I don't have the dough set aside to get one or build a computer. Apart from that, all the bullshit that comes with owning...

Familiarity may have something to do with it, though I'm far from a frequent poster in comparison to others.
