Re: Neat stuff (non-lulz but interesting things) - Scary Womanizing Pig Mask - 06-26-2009

Just played Gravity Bone, very awesome, but I'd love to have a full game based around the concept of it.

[edit]:O:O Just played Today I Die as well. PLAY THAT NOW! You don't even need to download it and it's AMAZING.

Found this website...

It seems to be recordings of what various planets and moons sound like. According to some information found on YouTube:

"Although space is a virtual vacuum, this does not mean there is no sound in space. Sound does exist as electromagnetic vibrations. The specially designed instruments on board Voyager and other space probed performed special experiments to pick up and record these vibrations, all within the range of human hearing (20 - 20,000 cycles per second)".


I don't know if this is true or much about how it works, but this shit sounds pretty awesome all the same.

Some of the files have 404'd, but there are still lots to listen to. You can find more on YouTube, starting with this link:

Jupiter sounds (so strange!) NASA-Voyager recording

Luinbariel: Sounds eerily familiar to the ambience in 2001 / 2010 movies.  Minus the "ooowaah, ahhoohhh, ahhhhahAHHAAHAHH" chorus.

Pigmask: That Air Man was HOT.  Who's the girl with the bow chillin' by Lavos?

Be sure to stay for the end, or just skip to the end.

Seriously blew my mind.

WTF is wrong with that last picture Pigmask? They changed Crystal into a more Loli-like character? If she's "Soul Silver" why is "Heart Gold" the same? Also Silver was a guy D:

WTF?

Yeah, they scraped Crystal for some new girl since it's a G/S remake, not a G/S/C. Sucks, since Crystal had a badass design and the new one is even worse DP guy. Also Silver is there, and just as awesome as ever Smile

Atheism describes your (lack of) belief in a deity, but not does not define your morals as organized religions do. Perhaps you meant Secular Humanism?

For example, I'd describe myself as more of a Agnostic Theist, rather than an Atheist, but that doesn't really dictate whether or not I should think abortion is wrong.

I should've minored in Religious Studies instead of Sociology...
