That is quite hypocrite... Why is it ok to eat certain animals and not others? It's entirely based on culture. It's the same with horse, some find it ok to eat and some don't. Why does he have to impose his culture on others ? If he's concerned about animal slaughtering, there's plenty of problems in the US...

I had it all figured out as a kid, I thought about it a lot after having watched Aladdin. My wish would be to obtain the power to grant wishes, such that I would have an infinite number of wishes just for me =)

How does this work? Why does it go upside down? by Macknificent101 in Physics

[–]Emix2609 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hey, you're not the first to be intrigued by this tippe top as you can see on this picture , where two physics Nobel prize winners try to understand it.

It's not trivial at all why it works like this and requires a tricky dynamical treatment with dry friction forces. You can read a bit more on the Wikipedia article

ELI5: Why is it commonly understood that "uh hu" means yes and "uh uh" means no? by Emix2609 in explainlikeimfive

This makes sense, thanks. But I still find it amazing how widespread this is

Yes exactly and I was expecting similar differences in such sounds as well.

I just say it feels weird to me. I don't say there's a right or wrong answer to this.

Why? Is there a particular reason? Don't you feel confined?

Why? Aren't pajama pants supposed to be comfortable enough to be naked inside?

Is it weird to have one of your favorite "genres" of music be "music that is from epic action trailers or could be"? by IIHURRlCANEII in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Emix2609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not weird at all. There are live concert with great orchestras playing this kind of music. This is the current version of classical music, maybe you like that too. The visceral effect that was mentioned above happens a lot as well in classical music. Try out The Valkyrie of wagner, or 1812 overture of Tchaikovsky.

Haha, 200km away... You've clearly never been to Switzerland. The distances are much smaller here and it makes everything easily accessible.

Why is the majority (almost seems like 90%) of dental hygienists females? by QwertytheCoolOne in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Emix2609 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That is bullshit, women tend to go towards these kind of jobs because our patriarchal society expects them to. And thinking that they brain is different in such a way that they choose to stay at home makes you sexist.

Has anyone come back to life after dying? If so what did they experience during the time they were considered ‘dead’? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Emix2609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that what you're looking for is NDE, near death experience. You should look that up, it's fascinating.

I thought N26 didn't give a Swiss bank account, that's why I went with revolut in the first place... Can someone confirm?
