I didn't even see some nature of american bubble appear at all, as i was totally expecting. Or was that 'empire' formed before this timeline?


The video starts in 1800. The Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776.

Explaining temperature (kelvin) and laser cooling
I did my master's thesis on some of the weird quantum effects he mentions at the very end. Such a cold cloud of gas can actually work as a quantum computer.

America's problem is that men sit down when they pee
Via PZ Myers, who offers up this little witticism:

"Somehow, I get the idea that Steven L. Anderson, the flaming anti-gay pastor, has these dreams in which he stands shoulder to shoulder with a long line of men, and they all unzip and flip out their penises and spray a mighty stream forth, together, with pride and joy…and he feels good about these dreams. Glory!"

Mac Geek - Dag finally comes to his senses
You know what's great about linux? It's completely open-source, so if something crashes, you can just dmesg and grep to find out what the fuck went wrong and fix it so it doesn't happen again. How cool is that?

>> ^Deano:
I haven't heard of them but isn't it odd to pose with cereal? I bet they're kooky.


The cereal seems to be a running gag: http://www.videosift.com/video/September-Earth-Wind-Fire-cover


Oh, and I just realized I had one more question:

6. Are they familiar with Lasse Gjertsen? Is the video editing inspired by him? They seem to use some of the same techniques as in i.e. Amateur and Hyperactive.
