NorCal Dave reacted to FatPhil's post in the thread Claim: A UFO crashed in 1933 Italy and the US Recovered it with
Informative.
The work of Jack Sarfatti was very well known to readers of sci.physics, and, by crossposting, sci.math, where I encountered it. The sane posters never wasted any time with his stuff, filing it in the not-even-wrong bucket almost immediately... -

Agree.
I don't know Sarfetti and Pais off the top of my head, but Puthoff is famous for believing that Uri Geller could bend spoons with his mind (rather than stage magic). Puthoff's judgment about what is (im)possible or not is clearly not reliable. A... -

Todd Feinman replied to the thread Synchronicity - What's your experience of it?.I had a battery encounter day before yesterday. I tried to turn my TV off and the remote wouldn't work. I tried over and over again and no buttons on the remote would work. I got out the pack of batteries, replaced them, rotated them a bit to... -

Like.
Last Sunday, my son came into my home office and asked if I had any AA batteries for his Wii controllers, so I opened the cupboard where I keep stuff like that, took four out, and handed them to him. While I was there, I noticed the box that... -
Mauro replied to the thread Bugs and Suggestions for Metabunk.org.Well, one must first be aware this problem exists. Now that I know it, the first fix coming to my mind would be to disable the embedding of Reddit posts, they could still be quoted using a screenshot + the link. As things stands now I think the...

I swear I copied the English text into the translation box and thought I asked for Italian? I thought it looked kinda Spanish, which I can pick through. I was really surprised that Italian used the word "entonces", but it was time for dinner and...

Why is embedding something that has no reason to be rendered the same way for any other readers, or even yourself in the future, acceptable as a quote here on Metabunk? This double standard has always been glaringly obvious to me - it's...

MonkeeSage reacted to John J.'s post in the thread Claim: A UFO crashed in 1933 Italy and the US Recovered it with Like.
Puthoff's PhD is in electrical engineering, not physics. Where his theories have ventured into pure physics, they sometimes result in extraordinary claims and they have been criticized, e.g. Massimo Pigliucci called Puthoff's hopes to extract...

MonkeeSage reacted to RTM's post in the thread June 2026 US Capitol UAP Press Conference with David Grusch with Informative.
The main Grusch thread seems to be locked, if anyone is interested he is on Joe Rogan today.

Mauro replied to the thread Bugs and Suggestions for Metabunk.org.The biggest problem is that that translation is in Spanish :cool: Yes I could back-translate from Italian to English, but it's very improbable I'll recover the same wording as the original, so it'd actually be a paraphrase. I also don't like...
