Ah, no. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll try again in the evening.

Sorry, this is a good idea, but it really misses the mark. It's way, way off. I can sing rather well, and this is completely off. About half the notes are wrong. My voice does have quite a few harmonics though. Maybe that is throwing t

It’s Logan’s Run to the book. Then they wonder why the west is turning to “crazy populists” when the “sane and democratic” ones go around supporting this kind of stuff…

Didn’t they persecute (or tried to, I don’t remember anymore) Assange for the same reason though? Or is there some clear difference here?

Ahahah. "stats cocoon" sounds exactly like something MAGA would say.

:) I see your confusion. But the F is caused by gravity there. The special case you are refering to (I think you are thinking about the Weight = g * mass of body) comes from a more universal expression. If you look at the proper expression

I don’t know Scott’s theory, but gravity as a force indeed doesn’t exist. That’s a classical physics concept. For the last century, the accepted theory is that gravity is indeed not a force but a manifestation of the space-time curvature. T

The amount of emissions that the planet can take (a that is the real crux of the problem) is what its ecosystems can offset. It’s very hard to calculate exactly how much the ecosystem inside a country borders can offset, but a good enough m

Sure, in the end, we must always find a way to blame western societies while we give a blank check for China (and other bad actors) to continue doing whatever they are doing... This was never about saving the planet, it was always about de

No, all China has to do, is to emmit the same CO2/land mass as the USA (or better, as the EU).

The traditional HN solution for Climate Change: If they only had more babies in the USA, their CO2 per capita emissions would fall and we would save the planet! These 5th column arguments, are just appaling. USA (and EU, if we finally wake

Sure we should all trust your word instead of the readily available stats that say exactly the opposite..

One of those places, was a very fancy restaurant in Washington DC, with photos of presidents dining there hung on its walls. So, let’s not act like it’s not something normal there. These sugary sauces are everywhere in the USA. From low lev

I experienced the same, and no it isn’t. In Europe you don’t expect your bread to have added sugar, for instance. That tasted disgustingly. You also don’t normally expect sweeteners in your meat. Those sauces are also disgusting. Good beef

My present car is 18 years (and, other than 2 non functioning buttons that I decided I didn’t want to pay to replace), working perfectly fine. And, I should say, I’m a terrible owner. This car had (at most) 10 maintenance checks (and oil ch

If it’s a fetus how can it ever be manslaughter? Either killing a fetus is the same as killing a human, or you pretend fetus aren’t human and they don’t have rights. You can’t have the cake and eat it too.

So, statistics clearly show that limiting drugs supply actually works, unlike what the hard left has been saying to us (backed by social “sciences”) since the 2000s? If we just listened to common sense instead of these people, society would

This reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer sends Jerry’s broken video player in the mail to claim the postal service broke it and get money for it. “It’s a write off Jerry. It costs them nothing. They just write it off!” Of course

No, by Indians. That’s why, still today, India is the country with the most slaves in the world, continuing their long tradition of the practice: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_India
