Here's something interesting. Weaponized lasers, ladies and gents. You've all heard about em, but here's an actual demonstration.

Ah, yes, I saw this. I see two problems, though.

1) What if it gets attacked from the opposite direction?
2) What if the enemy mirrors their plane/boat? Won't the laser just go SKIDOOSH and screw up the boat?

1) I'm assuming they'll put multiple lasers on the boat, but you never know.
2) They'd have to have a perfectly clean mirror to be able to reflect the laser's heat 100%, which would be difficult.

There are a lot of other potential problems, like the laser not being able to transmit fully through adverse weather conditions. I just thought it was cool that lasers were weaponized.

Sorry for the hiatus guys, I've been busy with work and Defiance.

Which animal kills the most humans annually? Dogs? Wild pigs?

It's actually the mosquito. Female mosquitos can transfer malaria to humans when they bite. Around 1 million people die annually due to complications resulting from malaria, generally being women or children in Africa.

Warning, gross.

A Canadian scientist theorizes that picking your nose is good for you. He hypothesizes that since bacteria get caught in the mucous of your nose, picking it and eating it helps train your immune system.

Needless to say, he is having difficulty finding test subjects.
