The only thing riskier is talking food with an Italian.

More stalling, but maybe Dr Stone S3?
Top Gun replied to Toonamiguy321's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Hell yeah Dr. Stone. Assuming this doesn't include the canon between-seasons OVA though, since those never seem like they're up for grabs. -
I think you're misunderstanding some of the ideas of relativity here. There are two main types of "time dilation" (i.e. time appearing to move differently in another object compared to a local observer) that are consequences of relativity. Special relativity shows that a clock moving relative to an observer will seem like it's running slower than a clock in the observer's frame of reference. And via general relativity, a clock in a weaker gravitational field (for instance, in orbit vs. on the Earth's surface) will appear to run faster than one in a stronger gravitational field. However, in both of those cases, we're talking about the apparent elapsed time relative to another frame of reference, hence the name. When we talk about needing to make adjustments to GPS to account for relativity, it's because all of the satellites involved are moving relative to the Earth's surface and each other, and they're all in a weaker gravitational field, and GPS depends on making very precise measurements of signal times to determine your position. It doesn't make any sense to say that our body's cells would experience discrepancies when in a particular environment, because at any given moment our entire bodies are essentially all in the same frame of reference, and are thus experiencing the flow of time in the same way. I mean I guess you could say that the cells in your head are experiencing a very smaller amount of gravity than those in your feet, but that effect would be so minuscule as to not even matter. (Fun fact: due to these effects, astronauts who have stayed on the ISS for long periods of time have technically aged slightly less than those of us on the ground, but even being in space for a solid year would cause a discrepancy of only a tiny fraction of a second. Just...do yourself a favor and don't dig into the twins paradox.)

Gee I sure wish someone would increase my salary by 20-30% for being complete shit at my job.

What do you think the show tied up in Japan is?
Top Gun replied to Toonamiguy321's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Clearly something about bondage. -
Escaflowne never airing on [as] and/or Toonami remains an absolute crime. Gorgeously-animated fantasy mecha action by a lauded staff, an all-time great Yoko Kanno soundtrack, a classic dub (let's ignore that McNuggets-infested Kickstarter one)...everything about it screams a perfect fit.

That is profoundly depressing.

Colorado passes right to repair law dealing a strike to John Deere

Unsurprisingly the EU is way ahead of us in terms of right-to-repair legislation. -
Reading that was a journey.

Elon Musk now owns Twitter, apparently trying to run it into the ground

Let's make our OWN service! With blackjack! And hookers! -
This was probably inevitable, but it's still massively fucking disappointing. We should have had Resting Shit Face getting absolutely reamed on the stand.

Abbott Promises to Pardon Convicted Murderer
Top Gun replied to PenguinBoss's topic in Current Events
If Abbot wants to tell the whole world he has a micropenis he can just come out and say it directly.
