It takes forever to put shit in LaTeX though. I'd go through the effort for something more professional like a dissertation but for a homework? Fuck that.

Sounds like you're a shitty professor.

You're probably a high school teacher if anything, so I highly doubt any high school kid would bother using latex

Arianespace will use an Ariane 5 ECA rocket, designated VA228, to launch the Intelsat 29e communications satellite. Intelsat 29e is the first Intelsat Epic high throughput satellite, hosting a next-generation all-digital payload that can be reconfigured in orbit and is resilient to interference and jamming. Intelsat 29e offers coverage spanning North and South America, the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, and the North Atlantic aeronautical route connecting North America and Europe.

The launch will begin in 4 hours.

Not a chance an Ariane 5 ever blows up.

Not worth watching.

This. I only ever watch rocket launches for two reasons; if it is launching something or someone interesting or if I think that it may blow up.

Women are attracted to 3 things:
1. height
2. anti-intellectual alpha behaviour
3. facial aesthetics

A clinically retarded male who is 6'3 and always acts loud will have a sexual market value a thousand times higher than a manlet who also happens to be intelligent.

Why haven't our feet evolve to face the elements?
55 posts and 14 images submitted.
>>
>>7812166
They have. Stop wearing shoes for a few years and your feet will build up the massive callus that they're supposed to have. The only reason that shoes are so necessary is because it's not the elements we need protection from, it's all this broken glass and shit just lying around from people being assholes.
>>
>>7812166
Your feet will adapt to your environment. There are people in Africa and South America that go their entire lives without wearing shoes.

But if you grow up in a civilized nation, chances are you'll have pussyfeet because you'll have been wrapping them in cotton and rubber since you were born.

Hey guys, fa/tg/uy here. I'm going to become a dad soon and I've been reading a lot on vaccines and I'm not sure what to believe or not. What's your opinions on them? How do you feel about the toxins in them, and other Chemicals?

>How do you feel about the toxins in them, and other Chemicals?
They're generally negligible, non-lethal, and sort of hypoallergenic in a democratic sense.
>>
>>7810172

If you really need to ask an anonymous science board about vaccines, then you probably shouldn't vaccinate your children.

We can only hope your offspring die before they pass on their genetic information, and thus that your defective genetics reaches a dead end.

For you, the infinitely small chance that any negative event comes out of vaccinating your children is negligible in comparison to the fragile-x syndrome tier retarded genetics they inherit from you

>>7810173
Okay, that's interesting, but what about the other things like negative reactions? I've heard some kids have even died from it
