Anon,

If we had a combined effort from not just us but all forces of the internet, would it be possible to manipulate a certain company on the stock market? I mean if every anon, /b/tard, troll, stonerfag, and cancer put in $200 into a certain company technically speaking could we make that company rise up, sell our shit, then watch it fall. Unlike most plans that anon has pulled, This could be lulz in beyond epic proportions considering we could do it to any company we choose.

The thought just popped into my mind. Any criticism, praise, and fuck yous would be appreciated

solving the following riddle will reveal the awful secret behind the Universe.......

...assuming you do not go utterly mad in the attempt. If you already happen to know the awful secret behind the universe, feel free to skip ahead.

Let's say you have an ax. The kind that you could use, in a pinch, to hack a man's head off. And let's say that very situation comes up and for some very solid reasons you behead a man. On the follow-through, though, the handle of the ax snaps in half in a spray of splinters. So the next day you take it to the ax store down the block and get a new handle, fabricating a story for the guy behind the counter and explaining away the reddish dark stains as barbecue sauce.

Now, that next spring you find in your garage a creature that looks like a cross-bred badger and anaconda. A badgerconda. And so you grab your trusty ax and chop off one of the beast's heads, but in the process the blade of the ax strikes the concrete floor and shatters.

This means another trip to McMillan & Sons Ax Mart. As soon as you get home with your newly-headed ax, though, you meet the reanimated body of the guy you beheaded last year. He's also got a new head attached and it's wearing that unique expression of "you're the one who killed me last Spring" resentment that one so rarely encounters in everyday life.

You brandish your ax. He takes a long look at the weapon with his squishy, rotting eyes and in a gargly voice he screams, "that's the same ax that slayed me!"

Is he right?

If you only replaced the handle and you actually got the head of it fixed (as in you had the pieces forged back together), then one could argue that it's still the same axe. But if you got a new head placed on the not-the-original handle, then it's now 2 for 2 on the "Not the Same Axe" scoreboard.

But then you have to consider the issue of the reanimated BODY having a NEW HEAD, implying that this is not the same head you lopped off. Unless the previous head's mind/brain was transferred elsewhere or absolutely destroyed and the body's original mind/brain was placed in the new head, you've got a bit of an issue here. Heck, you've STILL got an issue if you REPLACED the axe head instead of having the pieces reforged. If you had it reforged, he'd recognize it. But if you replaced it, then he'd only say that if he was crazy or if you bought a similar axe head.

And what if the new head came with its own mind/brain? What then? Well, maybe there's just some weird shit going on. Or maybe the head is just loopy and has weird fantasies about getting killed by decapitation and happened to imagine an axe similar to yours screaming towards his neck at some point.

Or MAYBE the guy you broke the handle on isn't the first person you slew, and New Head here recognizes the blade, PROVIDED you had it reforged instead of replaced.

And if you didn't slay New Head before? Well again, he's either crazy, there's weird shit going down, or there's something up with the axe head. If you never killed New Head, then there's no way he'd recognize that axe blade if it was reforged.

But what if you had it replaced? Well, I guess your "new" axe head was actually a "used" axe head, and McMillan & Sons Ax Mart ripped you off because they're saving up for a lowercase "e" to put in the store name.

Riddle solved. Not insane. Still don't know what this awful secret of yours is.

Is it the same axe? no. Is it the axe? yes.
The axe changed over time, it is no longer the exact same, but one of its former forms was indeed the same axe that once killed him.

Now in my opinion because he is alive, i think the answer must be no.

This could actually help advance civilization. During this blackout, we could find ways to design technologies that ran off of steam or the like. And I don't think it will transport the world to a 1700s era, more of the 1980s or early 90s.

It says the sunflares happen at peak every 22 years, and 11 years respecitively. Either
A.) The last time this happened was in 1991 (lol obviously didnt)

It's more overexagerated bullshit playing into the scare tactic of the news media. While Y2k actually could have happened (see 2008 massive Zune shutdown bug), and this probabaly could also happen, you are and idiot.

Okay, so Lysenkoism is a deterministic view that tries to base its beliefs on science?

As for ID, I wouldn't say that just because trees, for example, look well-organized they must have a creator.
I believe that the Creator of the universe cannot be met, defined, analyzed or studied through science. Therefore, science will keep on searching and progressing, because -simply- the Creator cannot be found through such procedures.

>This guide will give a very large list of opposing arguments, and the correct responses.

Have Fun Trolling Christian's!




>If religion is the source of all evil, then why was it a theist who invented the scientific method? (Bonus points if you reveal the theist was a crazy Muslim scientist)
[Actually, no you'll find that the scientific method was actually created in near 6000BCE by ancient Egyptians, who used and transcribed (at the time) widely know empirical methods within the fields of astronomy, mathematics, and medicine. Also, I have never personally claimed that "religion is the source of all evil". I have, however, claimed that religion is very pointless, and that being an Atheist is indeed a far cheaper method of living.]

>"Prove god doesn't exist"
[Oh, that is quite easy. Simply by saying that a god does not exist, makes a god disappear. If we all do it, then god has no power. You make god exist, god does not make god exist.]

>"Jesus died for your sins."
[No, he died because he claimed to be something that he wasn't, and a religious institution didn't like that. The religion, and religious people killed him.]

The falling object would accelerate infinitely and eventually travel faster than light.

Any problems with this hypothesis? Discuss

No, timespace itself causes an object of mass to decelerate do to gravity. More mass, more inertia, more speed. More mass, more local gravity, less speed. This point of equilibrium is the speed of light. Just by having mass, the object has a finite speed.

How are you going to transport the lava/thermite without it burning through the container used to carry them? It would probably be better to use a material that is liquid at room temperature (or maybe above room temperature but below the liquefying temperature of lava) yet solidifies at the temperature in the Gulf.

Hello. It's feeling a little 1st year philosophy course in here. Here's a real puzzle for you to scratch your noodle over.

f(xy) = x*f(y) + y*f(x)
f'(1) = 4 (notice it's the derivative)

find the function f that satisfies this equation.

**the function that solves this is not complicated at all but it's still a little tricky**

inb4 using the internet and copy pasting an answer.

But I could only guess at the function's end behavior. Knowing that f(x) was fairly simple, I tried using cubic then sine functions to satisfy the first given condition.

Then I tried f(x) = xsinx

f(xy) = xysin(xy)
x*f(y) + y*f(x) = xysiny + yxsinx

If only sinx + siny = sinxy.... but with logs, this would work. I tried f(x) = xlnx

f(xy) = xyln(xy) = xy(lnx + lny) = xylnx + xylny = y(xlnx) + x(ylny) = y*f(x) + x*f(y)

And just make it f(x) = 4xlnx to satisfy f'(1) =4.

Notes:
1. A logarithm of any base can be used: f(x) = 4(lnb)xlog"b"x where log"b"x is the logarithm base b of x and where b is real and positive.
2. In my work, I obtained graph points for x = 0 and -1, but ultimately 4xlnx is undefined when x = 0 or x < 0. f(x) = 4xln|x| would have been a bit closer to what I was imagining, although f(x) = 4xlnx is all you need to solve the problem.
