  Tannerite, steel ball bearings, an Arduino with a laser sensor and a sparker, and some PLA

  Yeah, at that point he 100% turned from a science channel to pure popsci. Go back a year or two, and the video instead would have honestly looked at that tiny spike in current and would have probably branched off into an explanation of inductance. Instead, he used it to farm hate clicks. Very disappointing.

  I forget when his content turned into… This, but it’s the reason I’ve unsubscribed. I’m guessing he realised he gets more views and so more money this way.

  It might have been after the “erm actually” response he made to the speed of electricity video.

  For the sake of simplicity, let’s say you have negligible mass, while the two masses, m1 and m2, have equal masses and sizes. Everything is moving at some velocity in a vacuum. When the two masses are touching, the Centre of Gravity is midway between their Centres of Mass, which in this scenario would mean it is where they touch. When you pick up m2, an equal and opposite force would push m1 away. Because they both have equal mass, both would end up the same distance away from the CoG. If you lifted m2 on your head, the CoG would be right at the middle of your height. For as long as you’re holding m2, your body is resisting the force of attraction due to gravity between m1 and m2. When you drop m2, both it and m1 accelerate towards the CoG. When they meet, the energy you put into lifting m2 would be converted into heat in the collision. From an outside observer, while you were doing all that, the CoG was moving in a perfectly straight line with no change in velocity. Now, if you instead threw m2 away from m1 faster than its escape velocity, then that would change the velocity. If m1 and m2 weren’t equal in mass and size, the CoG would still be moving in a straight line, but the distance m1 and m2 moves away from the CoG would be proportional to their masses.

  Toxic masculinity makes men go blind and die rather than follow the Golden Path.

  Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masterbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

  Haha, wouldn’t it be funny if you fugged the Dune™ 2 popcorn bucket, now in cinemas near you, starring Zendaya and Christopher Walken, tickets available online?

  Mass Effect 3 was already heading in that direction, so the headline really doesn’t inspire much confidence

  That is such a horrible view of children. What happened to you to form such an opinion?
