I am going with this option, this is just a photo looking at tinted window with lights on in the room behind it.

Did any of you think the answer may be in the link above the picture :)

They are turning out smaller and smaller high tech components these days. And some really crazy technology is able to be squeezed into cells nowadays. Thz scanners can see through walls. They use almost microwave sized wavelength to look through solid matter.

Not to say matter is solid... Everything is mostly nothing anyways.

I dont need to look again. Anybody that ever paid attention to a glass knows that the brigher reflections make it look opaque while the darker let you see through it. Who´s holding that gameboy is wearing dark clothes, providing very low light bouncing and therefore projecting a weak reflection on the glass, which lets you see what´s behind it. It´s also visible that the glass is multi-layered (probably two glasses togheter for thermal isolation) and that behind it there´s a staircase with white tiles. phones seeing through walls my ass.

The attached article mentioned something about the potential device having a 4 inch range limit. There will be a whole lot of guys standing 3 and a half inches away from hot chicks to look through their clothes. :)

Ok... I'll bite... All I see is an image of a person taking a picture from the near side of the glass, or possibly a double exposure image taken of and empty and then occupied window. I did this commonly back in the days before digital cameras.

Other than one of those two options I see nothing in the image unusual at all. Also, rationally, the person in the window doesn't look like they are exactly on a mission to demonstrate a technology that currently either doesn't exist yet in this format, or isn't something public anyway. Anyone who has seen this technology in its current semi-public state would know how absurd it would be to think this image is any kind of tech demo.
Unless all that stuff the individual is carrying is batteries and hidden electronics and such, the image is not likely possible anyway.

If it is being suggested that this image was taken from inside and we are seeing through the person, this is not the case. They don't look like that.

this.

i'd be more curious about the photo if you could actually see the fence and building behind them through their body.

the photo appears as if from a perspective similar to being inside a lit room trying to look outside at night. you see everything reflected off the glass from the inside. turn the lights off and you can see outside.
or if you get close enough to the window to block some of the light you can see outside through your reflection.
the dark clothes the person is wearing allow the indoor hallway to become visible through the glass where their reflection is.
(This effect may be amplified because it looks like there's snow on the ground)

The image is purely illustrative. If I had put the article with an image of Superman X-ray vision, you guys would be arguing about why kryptonians couldn't possible exist.

kryptonians can't possibly exist

flaw 1. there's no star with a planet system close enough to get a kryptonian here before the age of 5 if they departed at near the speed of light when they were a fetus (Alpha Centauri B 4.3 light years away). This doesn't fit with the story of clark kent being found as a baby.
flaw 2. super powers would be based off the planet's gravity, not the color of the sun or solar radiation absorption. though stars do have different levels of elemental compositions, the main components would still be helium and hydrogen.
flaw 3. if the super powers were based off solar radiation, being exposed to a piece of rock from their home planet should have no effect on their ability to absorb solar radiation. the rock cannot absorb all the light or it would be a black hole and there'd be a bigger issue than just becoming weak

Yes. The same goes with Batman and his anonymity. Will you tell me his majordomo didn´t tell it to anyone on tweeter?

Also, Fox: How illustrative that image can be when it has nothing to do with seeing through walls? The whole article looks like a prank to begin with if they used that image as example.

Exactly... and I appreciate your constant submission of articles over which to argue.
But I am a Kryptonian, so that would not be a good example... just sayin.

I don't know what to tell you.

For example, if I show you this article with the following picture:

I know what you mean... that is pretty dumb and unrealistic due to the limited range of Giant Blue Lasers. Everyone knows that WiFi uses Medium Green Lasers anyway. But I see your point...

I remembered that when I was a kid, my biology teacher told us that in many places it was normal to eat the brains of a living monkey. They would tie the animal under a table with a hole which his head would come out from, and his skull would be cut open so that people sitting a round would take turns in pulling off pieces of gray matter.

I had long forgotten about that, but it turns out to be true. There is some debate whenever the practice still exists, but it probably does except that no longer a common practice.

I am not going to post real images of it, but here is a video from the movie Faces of Death. The making of shows the scene is not reveal, but it's still an accurate depiction:



And here is an ad campaign against the practice:

OG sick fucks report for duty. Who else has watched Faces of Death? I'd be disappointed if Daedolon says no.

Those guys in the video are pussies. Fucking hit it or don't!

Any other sick fucks tried brains before? I had hog brains. (We roasted a full hog one time, and I don't believe in wasting food, so I gave all the weird shit a shot, eyes, brains, tongue, kidney, etc) Brains suck. They're really irony, I wouldn't try them again unless they were prepared as part of a dish or in a really special way. Not gross, just feels like you're eating mushy metal. Eye balls are great, tastes like the meat just extremely tender. Tongue tastes good too, but has a weird spongy texture. Kidneys taste weird, probably because they help make piss. Livers are glorious. Most organs really require being prepared as part of a dish, but fry me up some chicken livers and hearts any time.

I haven't seen that Sharon Stone movie in a long, long time but it looks to me like someone photoshopped the beaver because I don't remember it being that plain to see. or Maybe this was "leaked" original footage?
