Aliens

There is literally no competition. Every scene has at least 1 classic line. Aliens is also the gold standard reference used by all action movies since.

It's a dry heat

Nuke it from orbit

There goes our salvage guys

You got the duty, open that bag

Mostly

I just described a cog as a circle with teeth and my son thought it was funny to call the sticky out bits as teeth.

I'm just hoping he doesn't ask about crenellations next.

For me the EU should make all hardware manufacturers provide open source drivers with the full range of configuration options available. This is one of the biggest hurdles to moving away from Windows.

I'm waiting for the day when these enhanced terminals go full GUI and mouse driven.

Watching the trailer video 10 times in a row is also slightly insane, but is free at least.

Another version I've heard is "When you suspect a conspiracy you often only find incompetence"

We call those Clag nuts or Dangle berries.

Only boring people get bored.

Utter nonsense but it was said to my boy by a junior school teacher. Was an interesting conversation when I talked to her at parent teacher day.

How long it will take for someone (not from China) to ruin it for everyone?

There is a Segway between boomer and Gen X but every generation has an overlap. I'm a Gen X. It is a small generation that lived through the creation of the internet society. We were also responsible for 90s independent music labels and the production of the greatest music since the 60s (you are welcome btw). Boomers are post war nationalists that stopped learning anything new after their 18th birthday.

My point is, the zero point has to be so small it becomes subject to the uncertainty principle, which is not a Newtonian law. So while the maths might resolve to the unexpected excitation event it doesn't make sense in reality because we don't apply Newton's laws at the tiny point sizes needed here?

When you plug crazy small numbers into Newton's laws don't the answers stop making sense, so you have to use Einstein rather than Newton's physics?

So frequently, philosophy forces us to think about wonderful ideas that lead us to amazing realisations, but so often those same ideas breakdown when applied to reality. This is where physics steps in.
