    Physics movies (mainstream movies with physics in them)

    Reproduce yourself with a 3D printer

    I think it would be cool if 3D printers could use multiple materials to print a single object in the same way that a regular printer uses multiple colors. I wonder how much the replacement cartriges would cost...

    PhD Comics Movie: Update & Trailer

    PhD Comics Movie: Update & Trailer

    It won't be out for a while, and it isn't going to be on TV. Runtime is as stated on the website: about that of a normal movie. In reply to an earlier comment, it is not a series of short skits, it is a full length movie.

    Skype Blue Screen of Death: Causes and Solutions

    My original problem ended up getting fixed in a Skype update a long time ago (I also have a different computer now). Your problem is likely caused by something different.

    What is the correct way to pronounce Kirchhoff ?

    I go to Caltech and we've got a building named Kirchhoff in which a lot of our classes our held. For the most part, we pronounce it "Kirkoff". More like the first one.

    Making Math-Based Decisions: What's Your Choice and Why?

    Definitely the dodge, because later in the game, the percentage of total damage which will be absorbed by a static reduction will get lower. Of course, I would also need to know the damage scale of the game (what numbers are we working with). Also, the green sword because static damage...
