If I were conservative I think this site would drive me crazy.

Good

America runs on Dunk… no wait oh no no swim away as fast as you can don’t run on it!

Hard disagree, if research findings were more accessible, NOT PAYWALLED, and published with some degree of intent for a wide audience then WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more people would dabble in reading scientific research and the benefit could have potentially saved science from such rapid collapse in my country (the US).

Kids are wired to ask that, so what, basic chemistry knowledge is extremely useful.

I think chemistry is APPALLINGLY bad at this to be honest.

This NASA page has some really cool simple visualizations of how tides work. They are kind of strange in ways you don’t expect.

Now think about pouring a bucket of water out on a table. It’s easier to slide the water around on the table rather than lift it directly upwards. When the Moon’s gravity pulls at Earth, the water doesn’t float outward, it just gets pushed and squeezed around on the globe, directed by both gravitational pull and other forces, until it ultimately ends up bulging out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest away.

I don’t know how to upload gifs to lemmy but check them out on the NASA page they are very satisfying and cool and explain the science wonderfully!

This is a good thing honestly, fuck Spotify it ruined music as much as any single company/service could.

We need more audiophile memes in this sub! The amount of pseudo-science bullshit is intense in the audio world, it is nearly overpowering for somebody new to it.

The muscle memory is hard to fix

Also this is software, we should celebrate and embrace the fact that the same tool can be customized to look and be organized differently to maximally ease users into learning it. This is one of the super powers of software!

the real chain rule

The secure scuttlebutt protocol is definitely real.

When life gives you lemons immediately take note as you may be stuck in a computer simulation, lemons are not naturally occuring and thus life has no lemons to give you, do not be fooled by the illusion your captors erected to keep you stuck in a computer simulation and harvest your brain waves for mining cryptocurrency.

They are there to disgruntle you, is that not enough!?

This is derivative af

Throw the cameras in jail!

So that’s it. Sorry for the long, rambly wall of text, but I feel like for responses to be truly helpful, people should know exactly what it is I’m looking for.

absolutely! no reason to apologize

People of Earth, your attention, please. As you will no doubt be aware, the plans for development of the outlying regions of the Galaxy require the building of a hyperspatial express route through your star system. And regrettably, your planet is one of those scheduled for demolition.

The process will take slightly less than two of your Earth minutes. Thank you.
