Well, I'm sure this thread is going to be interesting. Who brought the beer?

#3 and 4 look hot!

I expected more redheads.

Pretty sure #26 is a fusion reactor movie prop.

Brazillions of pics at the website for anyone who is interested.

This example has balls.

Large Hardon Collider (new window) (NSFW)

I think I saw something that looked like a tractor in one of the pics. That's about all I recognized.

Clicked for spanking with slide rules . . . leaving disappointed.

I clicked on the link thinking "surely porn is porn for nerds." I am of a certain age that when I was a teenager, it took some prowess to coax porn out of a computer, or to even know someone who had a pc with a modem and enough time between when we got home from school and when the parents arrived to download ONE picture of a naked lady. Still, this has me feeling all tingly, like when you slide down the rope in gym class.

Not only does God play dice, they're loaded and he throws 'em when you're not looking

God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of the players, (ie everybody), to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.

Shh, no one's unlocked the Probability Mechanics tech yet.

Further proof that size does matter.

@wilw: I know they can't, because they're doing Serious Science, but I would love it if one of these tweets from @CERN just said "AHHH HEADCRABS!"

Flashback to Tetris:

It's absolutely porn. How can they show #23 in good conscience without a warning?

And as for #26, just how many hentai...enthusiast "scientists" did they have working on that thing?

in 50 years it'll be the size of an iPod and everyone will have one in their homes

I was expecting pictures of gold bikini Leia, Kari Byron, and the chicks off of G4 by now...

This!

Lets do this thread right

This is physics porn

Yes, yes it is.

She is the BEST part of NCIS...and there's a lot of good going on there.

looks like the LHC booted itself up, ran through the initial start up procedures and began smashing protons 7 hours ahead of schedule, surprising the scientists. atom pops (new window) It then said, "thank you, dave." asked if they wanted to play a game. it no doubt healed itself in the future and sent particles back in time to boot up here. I submitted this next week with a geekier headline.

NERDGASM!

There needs to be a photoshop contest for this guy ridin' dirty in his cart, asap.

Well, see, he had to go into hiding...

yeah, baby...TURN ME ON

I totally read Hadron as Hardon.

What a large hardon collider might look like:

Yes, yes it is.

More please.

simpsonfan: They haven't blown up the world yet. But then again, it's in Europe, we would have blown up the Earth already.



Ahh ha ha ha SHUT UP!

Fear the Clam: Danger: Autofellatio zone

Came here to post something about self-fellatio with that pic. You win.

What the hell does that contraption make? Stuff for bombs and junk?

When I read this article, I thought of this.
