More likely just, "Science reporter doesn't really understand the paper, writes headline to catch attention."
You can never trust headline writers. Or blurb writers. They're all shifty.

+5 although that's not entirely fair.
Most newspapers are trustworthy sources, staffed by dedicated professionals
The problem is the 83 yotta Interweb "news" sites that are staffed with semi-literate cretins who don't know what the word "journalism" means, let alone "Physics", and probably "cat".

Cats understand how to manipulate people in a way that we give them shelter and food; let them sit on us; let them in, then out, then in, then out again; let them wreck our furniture and won't even get mad... Ancient Egypt worshiped them. And now they have taken over the Internet.
Cats understand way more than just physics, they might be aliens with an intellect vastly superior than our own!
You think the Illuminati or lizards rule the world? Hell no, it's cats!

You make a convincing argument there. Does tinfoil protect against cats?

Cats are alien beings that telepathically send their observations back to their home world, Meow. When they stare at things longer, they're actually sending longer messages, along the lines of "humans keep proving what idiots they are."

I finished watching a random Monty Python video just prior to reading this thread, so naturally I read all these comments in the various voices of the Python troupe. It was extraordinarily entertaining, what with all the non-sequiters and whatnot.
"That's not a cat license. That's a dog license with the word 'dog' crossed off and 'cat' written in crayon."

Because without some grasp of physics there's no way for cats to make the predictions they do. Duh.

Only to someone who knows nothing about the field science and how and why research is done.

It's not swindling at all. It shows that cats have a natural intuition about how things work. You don't think much of it because it's absolutely normal for us humans to have it. Not so much for animals though.

Varanus Salvator. While the venom of these critters would (usually) not be fatal to adult humans, the bite would almost certainly carry a whopping load of bad-ass bacteria.
The Thai word for this beast is one syllable, and is considered a very "impolite" word (I'll spare you further exegesis); the word is so "unlucky" that people instead substitute a phrase meaning "silver and gold." Very unlucky to even see one of these, and even more unlucky to kill one. Said with the wrong tone, in the wrong context, to a woman, the word could get something a man considers quite valuable cut off.

If you remove the god-awful calibri from your system, visio stops working -- and putting the god-awful calibri back doesn't make it work again.
Thank Apollo for system restore.

Why would you remove a standard font from your system?
|
|
|
|
|
Because I'm sick of the ugly thing being the default font for everything ms.
I'll take copies of Arial and rename them to calibri.

Not 100% sure on this but can't you just set that in your theme?
|
|
|

You'd still have to change it individually for all the shapes.
And a "theme" isn't a professional tool, is it? It's a toy for kiddies to play with on their computers, and it includes things that you either can't or don't want to export to other computers.
Visio has templates, stencils, etc. -- all pro tools, which can be used in a professional document-management environment, and all getting more and more buggered up with every release.
When they release a stencil full of emojis, I'll start looking for other alternatives.
