Heydo

I feel like a lot the reason for this is likely tied to the DOGE cuts that cut funds for local and state authorities. 250th anniversary plans all over the US were cancelled because their funds were cut. So nowhere around town did I see any signs or anything celebrating our 250th anniversary. The local 4th of July fireworks show was very underwhelming this year as well.

Like I knew it was our 250th anniversary, but I never truly realized it until afterwards. I realized that the reason for that was that there was no hype over it, no build up or anything.

That battle was super disappointing, so I wouldn’t feel bad about missing it.

That’s a damn good explanation, thanks!

I need a THDU on that one…

Too hard, didn’t understand.

Or 907 kg. So almost a metric ton, which is 1,000 kg (or 1.000 kg for some).

This shit isn’t at all confusing /s

In regard to speed, the speed of light is actually the speed of causality, which is the absolute limit at which one event can influence another. It is an absolute speed limit. Light can travel at this speed limit because it is a massless particle/wave. Anything with mass would need to have infinite energy to travel at the speed of light because the faster something is traveling, the more energy it takes to accelerate it further.

Inside the event horizon, these same rules apply because it is still space and time inside the event horizon. Even light that is traveling at the speed limit cannot escape. You just can’t go fast enough to escape once you are inside the event horizon, because the speed limit of the universe prevents you from going fast enough to escape. Basically you would be on your way to being spaghetti-fied as you approach the black hole, or maybe not. There is a whole lot we don’t know about the inside of black holes, so who knows what could happen in there. There are theories that say that super massive black holes could have different effects on things, but I only know of them and not how to explain them.

Outside of the event horizon, you can technically escape by accelerating away. But it would require so much energy that you wouldn’t want to cut it close, I would think.

Gravity does bend space and that does cause light to curve along with space. If there’s enough mass, it can bend space enough to essentially make a lens that can magnify light coming from behind. A black hole can bend space so much you can see the opposite side of its accretion disk above and below the event horizon.

If you’re interested, I watch a lot of Antov Petrov, Cool Worlds, Dr. Becky, and PBS Space Time on YouTube. That’s where I have learned most of this stuff. PBS Space Time can be a bit hardcore sometimes, but they have tons of information.

Black holes warp the fabric of space so much that not even light can escape once it passes the event horizon.

It has nothing to do with speed, it’s simply that all possible paths lead into the black hole. Photons travel through the fabric of space like a car on a road. The car can’t go off the road, so if the road curves, the car will have to curve with the road.

There’s a lot more to it, but the most simple way to think about it is that a black hole’s gravity is so strong, it warps space itself. And this warping of space basically acts like a funnel that funnels everything to the center of the black hole. Once an object or particle or whatever passes the event horizon (the point of no return) it is basically being funneled into the black hole by the fabric of space being twisted into the black hole.

Thank you, I was drinking myself mad trying to find that 🤣

What the fuck are you talking about???

There was a recent Verstasium video about it.

More like the grift that keeps on grifting

I don’t think you’re to stupid, I think this game is too stupid to figure out.

I played the first puzzle, apparently “Right” is supposed to stand for the letter “R” for some reason. That’s just fucking stupid right there.

No, that benefits society as a whole by increasing education for the next generation. Which leads to better lives and more opportunities.

When something benefits the whole, not all individuals will see obvious benefits to themselves. But they still get to benefit from the outcomes, like better jobs more opportunities and such.

So black voter turnout was highest in 2012…

Hmm 🤔 I wonder why that may have happened???

There’s also Be Smart with Joe Hanson as well.

What helped me with back pain the most was learning how to properly sit in a chair.

Basically, you want to sit down on your taint.

What you do is place your feet under the chair, stick your ass out like you’re twerking it, and proceed to sit down so that your taint is the point of contact between you and the chair. Make sure your hips are pushed all the way to the back of the chair and your feet can rest comfortably on the floor with your knees at a 90 degree angle.

This will align you spine properly, and prevent your spine from being overly stressed. It also relieves pressure on the hips as well.

Not sure if this will help with your condition, but it should help to relieve any stress points and align everything into a position where your body isn’t struggling to keep everything in pace. The longer you sit like this, the more benefits you will see.

Just walk by, do a fake sneeze, and splash water on his feet.

First things first, have fun! Play along with songs and just have a good time playing. That will help you to keep playing.

Secondly, learn some basic stick rudiments like parradiddles and such. Start VERY slowly and be patient with the speed. You’re working on building up muscle memory.

I also suggest using Drumeo for training lessons as well, if you spending money that is. They have all kinds of lessons available from beginners to advanced players. And the cost isn’t too much for what you get. Though I would suggest waiting for a sale price if you can.

There are plenty of free lessons you can find on YouTube as well. They’re just usually not as organized as you would find on something like Drumeo. But there are some really great lessons to be found. Rob Brown is one I always suggest. He has good, clear lessons and provides a lot of great details. I specifically suggest his video on how to pay the kick pedal and how to pay doubles on the kick. That really helped me.

Have fun, try to stick to a loose schedule, and keep playing! You’ll be surprised at how much you improve if you just stick with it!

I was just introduced to NetBox and it’s really intriguing. It does look complicated but once it is setup it seems to work very well at integrating data from a spreadsheet into it and then automatically documenting changes and such. It’s open source as well.

Agreed. If I am making it building something then I prefer metric. If I am thinking about how tall something is or how long it is I think in standard. I just feel that one foot is a good size to measure something rather than meters or centimeters. It’s much easier for me to imagine a 6 foot tall object than a 1.83 meters or 183 centimeters. It’s just easier to break something up into 6 parts than it is to break something into 1.83 parts or 183 parts.

I know you could use a unit that equals 25 centimeters and that would be similar to a foot, but no one uses that for some reason.
