UFFO
Via Science Codex:
Danbo continues to attempt quiet decoupling, without much success.
If an unidentified flying object suddenly appeared in the sky, it's likely your heart would beat faster. Now, researchers have found that the same is true for bears. The UFOs in this case are actually unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which have become increasingly valuable to wildlife researchers, allowing them to observe animals, including endangered species, in their natural settings from long distances and over difficult terrain. It had appeared as though the animals were taking these encounters in stride. For instance, American black bears rarely seem to startle or run away when a UAV comes near. But the new study reveals that despite the bears' calm demeanor when in the presence of UAVs, their heart rates soar, a sign of acute stress. The researchers fitted free-roaming American black bears living in northwestern Minnesota with Iridium satellite GPS collars and cardiac biologgers. The collars sent the researchers an email with each bear's location every 2 minutes while the biologgers captured every heartbeat. Then Ditmer and his colleagues programmed a UAV to fly to the bear's most recent location. "Some of the spikes in the heart rate of the bears were far beyond what we expected," says Mark Ditmer of the University of Minnesota, St. Paul. "We had one bear increase her heart rate by approximately 400 percent--from 41 beats per minute to 162 beats per minute."AmazonGoogAppleNSA's researchers will not be surprised by this transhuman replication of their own studies. What's the overall purpose of AmazonGoogAppleNSA? To keep humans scared shitless, helpless and obedient. What's the best way? Constant exposure to new and unknown and threatening objects and actions. A new threat every second. Tyrants have known this for a long time. Maintain the fight-or-flight reaction, in a situation where fighting and fleeing are impossible. Perfect way to pulverize the human soul.
