Example Questions

votes newest recent

Science Fiction & Fantasy: Are there any inventions that were accurately predicted in science fiction? If so, what were they?

Singularity/Futurism/Psychohistory: Does Ray Kurzweil's graph use all of the data from its various sources, or does it “cherry-pick” data to fit the curve? Are there sources left out?

Atheism: Without an outside, concrete source (such as the Bible) to measure them against, *how* do you, as an atheist, choose to define your personal ethics?

Literature: I've got some “fancy” hardcovers that have gilded edges on the pages. Do gilded edges on pages actually help preserve books?

3D Graphics: Where can I get a job that will use my Blender skills?

Guitars: I've recently been listening to classical music played on the lute. How can a change my guitar to sound more like a lute? Tuning? String type?

Literature: I've got a large collection of Fine Woodworking magazines by Taunton Press, but I'm missing two issues? Where can I pick up the missing two issues? [closed]

LEGO: What vehicles/sets are available for the MegaBlocs HALO series? [closed]

Literature: I want to write, but I'm having trouble finding an interested publisher. How can I publish my own book? [closed]

Literature: How can I get my local library to purchase and retain more science fiction books? [closed]
