I thought we weren't supposed to laugh at people with genetic conditions anymore? Or are we still living in the previous century?

It's called Uner Tan syndrome, and it's had a lot of coverage in the popular media over the past decade or so.

@1 you do know that (a) Uner Tan syndrome is essentially a pathetically gussied-up form of neglect of a mental deficiency and (2) the female in that video suffers no such condition but rather is a member of a (albeit curious) horsey fad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5jRMjPNcOE ...yes, i'm sure you know this.

"Microsoft is trying to fully understand the problem before the fund gets started. "

God forbid. If it was the Seattle City Council they'd just create a tax, take the money, pile it up, set fire to it and keep the junkies warm for a night.

Uner Tan syndrome makes Munchausen Syndrome look real.

"The common link between the four cases ..."

AMONG the four cases.

Grammar. Learn it and use it.

That last video is the stuff of nightmares.

@5: You're probably right but that's nit-picky.

That's impressive athletics.

Gives "doggy style" a whole new meaning.

That Chinese bio glue is more than likely hype. Any paramedic could tell you putting a band aid on a penetrative wound only stops the bleeding on the outside. Any body can "bleed out" internally, quite easily, without ever spilling a drop outside the body.

A few thousand years from now an archaeologist will find a tunnel sized mass of concrete and will be like WTF. Why would a society spend that much money and fossil fuel for this structure. What was its purpose that it would be so valuable.

"Acting FAA Administrator Daniel Elwell . . . confirmed that before the first crash in Indonesia, pilots weren't aware that the MCAS, or Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System and the system that was allegedly caused the crashes, was installed on the plane."

WHY wouldn't Boeing tell the fucking Pilots about Boeing's 'fix' to 737s?

Apparently, they didn't wanna scare off any Airlines to jump ship to Airbus.

That's some pretty fucked up Capitalism.

Let's think long-term and be like more Europe --
let's put Workers on our Corporate Boards of Directors.

@12
Oh no, let's be like America!
Where corporations can do whatever they want.
And then wait for the lawsuits to follow.
Oh wait!
Consumers are now forced into arbitration. And the arbitration boards are staffed by -- corporate employees!

@11

Archeologists are pretty good at figuring out a structure has been deliberately buried or filled in after some period during which it had been used for its original (and/or other subsequent) purposes. It's a lot more common than you might think, perhaps because structures that have been buried are better preserved, or less likely to be pulled apart for building material by subsequent societies.

The first example that comes to mind is one of the oldest known human structures, Gobekli Tepe.
