Just looking for a sound editor like Fruityloops, one that can do MIDI files and use soundfonts. FL Studio turned out to be $200. FUCK THAT. So I look around for alternatives. They're all either not at ALL like FL, packed with trojans or also massively overpriced. I have just spent more than a few hours of wading through shady shit. -vgZgLBIfbQ

That is also what paranormal "experts" say about the stories they hear. Physics says it is not possible. Therefore it is not possible. That is not an opinion, it is a fact. Just like it isn't an opinion that ghosts aren't real.

And you are underestimating the amount of momentum that takes. Again, I used a punch that is notorious for its inability to knock people down, even with a surprise hit, as the baseline, and it has more momentum than a .50 BMG, 9mm and 5.56mm combined. And that is with the lowest speed estimate I could find, and a very comservative estimate of the involved mass, just the arm without any of the trunk. An actual jab has much more momentum than that, and STILL can't knock people down. Simply put, if it can't get you moving too fast to put your foot back in time, nothing can ever knock you down under any circumstance. All it can do is force a half-step back. Shouting and hoping they are startled into falling over would be more effective.

Problem: The momentum of a .50 BMG is ~43ns. (49g at 860m/s.) A 9mm is only about 3ns. (8g at 360m/s.) A 5.56mm is only about 4ns. (4g at 940m/s.) The momentum of a really weak jab, moving about 5kg at 10m/s, is 50ns. It has more momentum than all three of those rounds combined, and it still doesn't knock you down. At best it might stagger you if it catches you totally off guard. And even if you had a gun that could put out rounds with that much momentum fast enough to kncock people over, it would throw the user around like a ragdoll. You know, 'cause every action has an equal and opposite reaction? Remember? Then you add on how much MORE momentum is in recoil than in the shot due to the propellant and the air in and in front of the barrel also being propelled... Yeah, this is just a right stupid idea. You will never knock somebody down with a bullet.

People also claim to see ghosts. Physical impossibilities are still physically impossible no matter what anecdote people tell. Again, the momentum of a bullet is roughly that of a speeding golf ball. It has more energy, sure, but energy has no direct influence on the ability of an impact to conduct through objects. If your armour provides enough padding to reduce the felt impact of a golf ball 99%, it'll do exactly that to a bullet that fails to penetrate it. Also, the energy of a 9mm is low enough you can literally punch with that much energy. Bullets don't work because they have a lot of power, they work because it's concentrated into a really small area. Once the concentration is lost it's just wasted kinetic energy with negligible momentum. You NEED to penetrate, or it'll have all the combat effectiveness of a lewd hand gesture. And knocking somebody down with a bullet is as likely as wielding a sword that weighs 35 kilos. Physics does not allow it.

Yeah, after seeing that, it is the EXACT STUPIDITY I WAS TALKING ABOUT. Random things being taken down by copyright strikes that they have no proof are at all related. Just like they were a week ago, a month ago, a year ago and a decade ago. I fucking give up.

Unless you got there less than two minutes after I posted, which you didn't, that's a complete and barefaced lie. And oh, look at the timestamps. And Finebros IS NOT FUCKING COPYRIGHTING THE FUCKING GENRE. They have explained exactly what they're ACTUALLY doing, and people like you are FLAT-OUT FUCKING IGNORING IT. The only "evidence" you sheeple have is "But reaction videos are being taken down!", and that was ALREADY HAPPENING. The Finebros did NOTHING WRONG HERE. They are JUST making a network, that is ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING THEY ARE DOING. They are just being SCAPEGOATED for something that was ALREADY GOING ON for YEARS before their channel EVEN EXISTED. This has been happening since Youtube was FIRST CREATED. How is this SO hard to wrap your mind around? PROBLEM THERE BEFORE PEOPLE SAY THING, SO PEOPLE SAY THING NOT CAUSE OF PROBLEM. Is THAT easier for you? Is THAT an adequate explanation? Or am I COMPLETELY WASTING MY FUCKING TIME trying to explain this EXTREMELY SIMPLE CONCEPT to you? Of course I am. You have bought so deeply into this narrative that, remember, has NO SUPPORT FROM THE FACTS, that reason and logic are completely lost on you and you've convinced yourself either that this issue that is almost eleven years old is somehow brand new or otherwise come to the conclusion that Finebros can send copyright strikes BACKWORDS IN TIME. And either way, you're really starting to PISS ME OFF.

Well, if you refuse to consider the other sides of the situation, I suppose this link is relatively useless to you : You people are OBJECTIVELY WRONG. I already explained HOW you are OBJECTIVELY WRONG, and you pick the one sentence at the beginning and act like that's all I had to say on the matter. (Thanks for proving that statement right, by the way.) YOU are the one not considering the "other side". Again, this entire thing is COMPLETE BULLSHIT. It is MADE UP. The Finebros are just being scapegoated for copyright claims that were ALREADY HAPPENING, and have been for YEARS, by twisting something they said until it snapped, gluing it back together in a different order and twisting some more. Whiny little bitches like Jinx are complaining about getting copyright strikes when they ARE violating the copyrights of the original creators they're "reacting" to and freebooting off of their videos, and they're blaming whoever it's convenient to blame because they can't blame the actual, original creators they are stealing from. I saw this movie a couple months ago, only then it was Jacksfilms being blamed for all the copyright strikes. As long as "reaction" videos are on the internet, they will be hit by copyright claims, because they ARE violating copyright, they ARE thieves, they ARE freebooters, and they DO deserve it. The only reason Finebros doesn't get hit with claims as often is because they ask permission first, and even then they DO get hit with copyright claims on a regular basis. They are NOT responsible for the copyright strikes happening right now anymore than Jacksfilms is responsible for the copyright strikes that were happening a few months ago, or the next scapegoat will be responsible for them in another few months.

You people are unhelpable. "But they look tired, therefore they're lying!" They're just tired, alright. Probably also pissed off that people are intentionally misunderstanding something they have gone to great lengths to explain. "But reaction videos are being taken down!" THEY ARE ALWAYS BEING FUCKING TAKEN DOWN, they're ALREADY copyright infringement on the ORIGINAL videos. There isn't anything different new, people are just scapegoating the Finebros when they got caught fucking freebooting off of the videos they're "reacting" to. Reaction videos are the scum of the fucking earth, and get rightly treated like it. They're freebooting off of other people's videos in order to get a share of the original video's views without having to do anything for it. Look at that cunt Jinx, for one great example. They get hit with copyright strikes ALL THE TIME, because they FUCKING DESERVE IT, and the only reason Finebros' videos don't get taken down as often is because they at least make sure to get permission from the original creators first. That does NOT mean Finebros is responsible for other people's "reactions" being taken down, they aren't the ones doing it. Finebros is just the newest scapegoat. Before this, it was Jacksfilms.

Has anyone even seen their clarification video, which came out only hours later, and explained that they are NOT copyrighting reaction videos? They're just setting up a network, guys. Just like how TYT has copyrights on its network and format, but they didn't copyright news talk shows. 0t-vuI9vKfg Funny how people love to get pissed off about things that ARE NOT HAPPENING, regardless of the facts. Finding any little way to twist somebody's words into something horrible because they fucking feel like it, or instantly buying into such a narrative the instant it's presented to them.

Coyotes on drugs! Seriously!

So... Donald Trump ran away from the Fox News debate because he's a whiny little bitch that's scared of Megan Kelly, and is hiding behind wounded veterans. The same people he made TWO NYC presidents kick off his street because he felt they were hurting his property values. And... Oops, the money is actually going to the Donald J. Trump foundation. He's just pretending it's going to them so he can take all the money himself. I am overwhelmed with hatred for this sleazy fuckbag, and my words are failing to describe it.

"Obama wasn't born in the US! We demand a birth certificate!" *Shows birth certificate.* "Obama only showed the short form, doesn't count!" *Shows long form.* "It must be a forgery!" *Local Hawaiian newspaper provides a copy of their paper with a record of his birth.* "Well it can't be real! That's fake too." *Exasperation expressed at all the bold assertions made without evidence in the face of OVERWHELMING evidence.* "See, he can't be a citizen becayse why would he show his birth certificate so many times if he was really a citizen?" Eight years. It has been eight years, and people STILL don't believe Obama is a natural born citizen. He has provided another record of his birth after each wave of accusations, and these IDIOTS with no evidence are calling his enormous mountain of evidence fake despite having no rational reason to believe it. Of course, there was also no reason to doubt his citizenship in the first place. And then they have the balls to say they doubt his citizenship because he gave so many forms of ID that THEY FUCKING DEMANDED OF HIM. And the real irony? You want to see somebody running for president who ACTUALLY isn't a natural born citizen? It's a republican, Ted fucking Cruz. He was born in CANADA, and his parents were CANADIAN citizens who were both voting in CANADIAN elections when he was born. Where are the birthers now, huh? Oh, right, they were really just thinly-veiled racists and they only doubted his citizenship because he was fucking black. In summary: I still need to stop being so damned surprised when people are so damned stupid.

Oh, we've agreed before.

Guys, can you do us a favour and take this to serious topics? I think they have a thread specifically on the subject.

I have to respond to this. Bullets have almost no momentum, and their energy is just not as impressive as you think. If you somehow had an armour that provided no padding (which is impossible) and didn't distribute the force at all (which is impossible) but still stopped the bullet, it would leave a nasty bruise and that's about it. An actual suit of armour both provides significant padding and distributes the force over a much wider area, so much so that it's basically the same as being given a hard slap at best, and a paintball at worst. It would take much, much more than 3-5 hard slaps to have a meaningful effect on somebody, and the same applies to bullets. Hard armour does spread it out more, yes. And it actually does such a good job that some soldiers have reported finding bullet damage on their armour when they didn't even realize they had been shot. And that's with rifles, so imagine how much less a pistol would do if a rifle already did nothing. Further, knocking somebody down with a bullet is always impossible. You're familiar with Newton's third law of motion, right? You understand that any firearm that had that kind of power would also knock down the shooter, right? No number of bullets is going to knock somebody down. You can't shoot people fast enough to knock them down without knocking yourself down, and that's ignoring the fact that a gun that had that much firepower that rapid shots from it could knock people down would recoil so unbelievably hard that it would be impossible to hit anybody with it in the first place, and would seriously injure the user's shoulder. Multiquote seems to be broken, so I had to do this manually. All I'm going to add is that the Ak-47 also vastly outperforms the M-16 against hard armour, and leaves a much bigger and more lethal wound. There is no significant correlation between the ability of armour to block a bullet and the amount of damage somebody's hard will take when punching it. Also, it is much harder to break your hand or arm than you think, you could be wearing full plate and somebody punching you full force would still only suffer minor damage to the bones in their knuckles and some slight strain in their wrist. They might, at best, break a finger. This simply isn't going to work.

Laughing my ass off at Martin O' Malley. At, not with.

FUCK yes: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/7573/?

Warning: Following vent is petty, but I'll keep short. My girlfriend asked me to come over because she wanted affection and her little niece and nephew were unavailable. So I took the almost hour long walk to her place, and guess what I found. Yeah, she's fast asleep, holding both babies. So I came over for no reason, because the exact thing she said wasn't happening happened less than an hour later. And there's no room on the bed anymore, so now the question is if I should try to sleep on the couch or walk all the way back home to sleep in my own bed. And I'm leaning towards home.

I am entirely too curious for it to actually accomplish anything, so I haven't been paying attention to it for quite a while. At least it means I miss all of your nonsense that isn't directly addressed to me, so it's still doing that part of its job.

It would be magic if intent overrided the laws of physics, like BTG is describing. I'm pretty sure that's the textbook definition of magic.

...Dude, it's not magic. Pointy+Force=Puncture, intention has absolutely zero influence once the force is applied. And plenty of force was applied, in a lot of ways, especially when the animal was lifted off the ground by my hand in its mouth, because its grip was stronger than its entire body weight. No mystical intention magic is going to make that not tear skin, clearly something PHYSICAL is at play. Something that's, you know, REAL.

That's your explanation? The dog has magic teeth, that only cause damage when the dog wants it to, rather than when the physical forces involved are sufficient to cause damage? Seriously?

It had every single solitary tooth, and no dental problems that I am aware of.

In their living room?
