Description

The Accidental Universe: The World You Thought You KnewWith passion and curiosity, Alan Lightman explores the emotional and philosophical questions raised by recent discoveries in science. He looks at the dialogue between science and religion; the conflict between our human desire for permanence and the impermanence of nature; the possibility that our universe is simply an accident; the manner in which modern technology has separated us from direct experience of the world; and our resistance to the view

With passion and curiosity, Alan Lightman explores the emotional and philosophical questions raised by recent discoveries in science. He looks at the dialogue between science and religion; the conflict between our human desire for permanence and the impermanence of nature; the possibility that our universe is simply an accident; the manner in which modern technology has separated us from direct experience of the world; and our resistance to the view that our bodies and minds can be explained by scientific logic and laws.

Behind all of these considerations is the suggestion--at once haunting and exhilarating--that what we see and understand of the world is only a tiny piece of the extraordinary, perhaps unfathomable whole.

Great for keeping bank statements clean but random security delays are frustrating
Reload type: One Time Reload
I use the balance reload tool to manage my monthly budget and easily hit credit card sign-up bonuses. It keeps my bank statements totally clean by grouping dozens of tiny e-book and movie rental charges into one single transaction. Most of the time the whole process works flawlessly and the money shows up in my account within five minutes. It is honestly the easiest way to put a hard limit on my family's everyday online shopping. You just need to watch out for a few annoying system quirks when you load larger amounts of money. Even though it usually works instantly the automated security filter sometimes flags big reloads and freezes the transaction for hours. This random delay is incredibly frustrating if you are trying to add cash fast to catch a lightning deal before it expires. You also have to remember that this balance is strictly non-refundable and cannot be used to buy other gift cards. Overall this is still a great method for organizing online spending and maximizing your cash-back credit card rewards. It totally fixed how I track household purchases but you definitely have to tolerate the occasional processing delays. My best advice is to load your account a day or two before you actually need to buy a big-ticket item. It works perfectly as a budgeting tool as long as you know the rules and plan for the random security hold.

Fantastic for gaming and productivity, but missing USB-C rechargeability
Color: Classic Black, Color: Classic Black
I recently purchased the Razer Orochi V2, and overall, it is an amazing mouse. The build quality is absolutely fantastic, and it feels premium. It fits perfectly in my palm, and the materials and clicks have a very pleasant tactile feel. I use it daily for both gaming and work, and it performs flawlessly in both scenarios. Compared to my Razer Pro Click, the Orochi V2 actually fits my hand much better. In fact, I now only use the Pro Click as a backup for when the Orochi's battery suddenly dies! There is really only one downside for me: it runs on disposable batteries rather than having a built-in rechargeable one. On the plus side, it only needs a single battery to operate, and I love the clever design that allows you to use either a standard AA or a smaller AAA battery depending on your weight preference. However, I would really love to see a future version of this exact mouse with a built-in battery and a standard USB Type-C charging port. If you don't mind swapping batteries occasionally, this is a near-perfect mouse. Highly recommended!
