"Even after we developed apparatus enabling duplex communication with the test subject, it failed every test we could throw at it. IQ, ink blot… even when we asked it to identify the Blackberry Playbook amongst some other tablets, it failed — it kept jumping at the iPad"

Thanks everyone, should be fun! @ralf I suppose this is the equivalent of driving school — being taught out on the road. @krawallmeitze congratulations! You are the first troll I have met on D*.

Hi Barnaby, I am sure you will do just fine. Driving is a very pleasant thing, although surfing the internet is even better. So if you like surfing the internet you will not be happy with driving. Sorry to say that. #krawallmietze is boring herself! I bet she think Edward Cullen is cooler than Charlie Swan, which all stupid people think!

@gaberlunzie That's a fair cop! I'm stuck on my perceived absence of absolute (and therefore ANY) truth. If nothing can be proven as true then everything is merely perception..well at least maybe? ugh therefore am I dreaming? If I am not dreaming then how could I possibly embrace any morality...as morality seem to be completely subjective...or something like that...my brain hurts.

I posted the link for general interest. I'm very much a nominalist, not a Platonist (although I realise many mathematicians are), so it's beyond me how something can exists if it doesn't manifest as and in something.

Thamx @gaberlunzie have bookmarked that in the favorites folder labeled "Someday" (as for the time being my computer has no sound...i blew up it's ability to make sound a couple months ago! Go Me!)

Wow @Barnaby Walters Thank you! Great tip! Making me think I may want to get a BIT more researchy...wouldn't have done any of that and can see why I need to...

@zach I drew up some plans based on a variety of sources (my instrument, some helpful makers) and got a maker to have a look over it.
@brendan sounds great! With something like that (long-ish neck and lots of strings) the trick will be to make it not fall apart and play well at the same time :) If you plane the fingerboard straight whilst the neck is under artificial tension (clamp body and put wedge under headstock), it'll help prevent the strings pulling it into a serious bow when everything's tensioned up. Let me know if you need any tips+tricks…

Yeah a lot like that! Except mine will most likely suck? I'm just going at it. * sort of a reversed coffin shaped body *Longer neck (b=about the same length as a baritone gtr) *8 strings (like mando, tuned in 5ths) *Humbucker and Mic options * Tremelo System (unless it screws everything too much) *Possible fretless (I play Violin) but prolly fretted.
Basically I have no idea what I am doing. Will either be genius or garbage.

For me, the most important with FF is that I can use the extensions I need: Adblock Plus, Firebug, Rikaichan, Ghostery and, yes, even Social Fixer (aka "Better Facebook"). Performance on OS X is more than decent, so I've feel no need to turn to Safari or Chrome...

Thanks :) I've always loved Peter Firmin's illustrations, and like to think my style pays small homage to them. Noggin the Nog and the other smallfilms are way better than the crap that I would have had to put up with as a child if my parents weren't oldskool!

This reminds me of the pie full o' blackbirds in Noggin The Nog.

Yes, I have considered that there may be more than three. As for why… All I can say is that it's nothing to do with regurgitated fish :)

well, yes, to me as well! But not on the post I linked to, to me at least. Weird. Some kind of edge case.
