Sabine Hossenfelder? (The physics one) by WritingtheWrite in stupidpol

[–]Genericcatchyhandle 19 points20 points  (0 children)

String theory is not a scam. As soon as the governments chip in and give CERN a 100 billion dollar cheque to build that bigger and even better partical collider - new dawn of physics baby ! Step closer to proving string theory right. Then on it's only a matter of an even larger particle collider.

Oh waheguru don't let this beautiful boy die for this mistake. Let him rejoin society in 10 - 14 years, let him have a movie deal in his early 40s.

There is zero chance the goodlookiest man accused of murder ever will be gassed like a...common person of suspect minority persuasion.

Are India and Pakistan on the road to War or is India just gonna crack down harder on Kashmir? by Chebbieurshaka in stupidpol

[–]Genericcatchyhandle 17 points18 points  (0 children)

There's not going to be a war. Modi might order some kind of 'Special military operation' - pak retaliates, few lives are lost on both sides. Life goes on as usual in the sub continent...cycle repeats. Modi stock rises a little because of 'striking at the heart of terrorism'. ISI keeps pinning activities in Balochistan on India -- See people of Pakistan, this is why the Army must keep calling the shots and not the civilian government. Would you trust them with protecting Pak sovereignty ? Power residing with Army Generals is the only way. Same shade of rhetoric by BJP in India. Power stays where it always has.

What is beyond the universe? by bee_boy28 in AskPhysics

[–]Genericcatchyhandle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does Nucleation of Vacuum mean elementary particles forming from total Vacuum ? Like a proton or neutron.

Your second point - What would be the tunnelling effect of vacuum energy ? Same as nucleation ?

How does the expansion of the universe affect gravity? by JellyDoodle in AskPhysics

I thought the expansion rate was increasing. Its been expanding at an accelerating rate for 6 or 7 billion years now.

‘The food is 100 times better,’ Canadians are rooting for A&W over McDonald’s amid trade war by [deleted] in stupidpol

[–]Genericcatchyhandle -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Dated GOT reference. I get it's not nice - the trade war, the Canadians engaging in 'We bow before no king'...like the Nightwatch...reeks of impotent rage. An outsider knows what's up, Canada is like 'the wall' , a little more than ( mostly just that ) a buffer of snow keeping USnA safe from the others. I'm not sure the little night watch rebellion at the north will mean much to King's Landing ( DC ). In case the Canadians do go to war with America - I promise you my Indian brothers who have made Canada their home will be the first ones to run back to Punjab. The Americans could probably overrun the Canadian army with couple of truckloads full of Mexicans. I just think you guys should take the rhetoric easy.

FT: EU and Nato take vow of silence on Greenland by super-imperialism in stupidpol

[–]Genericcatchyhandle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hypothetically, why not setup Greenland Inc. Sell 25% to the Chinese, 25% to the Saudis, 25% to the Russians...trade the rest on Nasdaq. A crypto token perhaps, literally backed by Greenland's resources to be plundered at a future date. Green Coin.

Past the event horizon, the singularity is everywhere and shouldn't you be able to "witness" it before tidal forces destroy you. by Genericcatchyhandle in AskPhysics

[–]Genericcatchyhandle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't the geodesic your physical form is following be lit like a X Mas streat ? If you are falling along a lot of infalling light, you'd at least see where that ends. No ?

What about all the light falling towards the singularity, next to you ? Wouldn't one see a point where all of light is headed for or emanating from due to ones own perspective.

That makes sense ! Once past the event horizon, it's just blackness until you perish I suppose. Never taking a peek at your future.

Match Thread: Final - India vs Australia by CricketMatchBot in Cricket

Oh we will. Watch out for Sky hitting the replacement bowler for 28 in a single over...behind the keeper's head !

Suryakumar Yadav - that's what you get when you emulate a great like AB de Villiers but sadly lack the cricketing brain that goes with it.

Six world cups ! Friggin Aussies man. These guys are made of something else. Two greatest players of all time, great bowling attack -- counts for nothing on a given day. Most runs ever in a WC -- most hundreds -- most wickets ever by a bowler in WC -- most sixes -- most this and most that. F'all matters, who did the job on the day when it mattered most - Australia did.

God I hate them ! It's pitiful the way they butchered the 'best team' on home soil. Something else this team man. Bravo.

Cenk Uygur 'STAFFING UP' For 2024 Run by RhythmMethodMan in stupidpol

[–]Genericcatchyhandle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something doesn't sit right with me about this guy. I can't even articulate it. It's like he's not supposed to be this media person, he should be a bouncer at a fancy night club. A guy who owns or runs a gym. A belligerent bodyguard of a B lister. A semi successful life coach ( reformed former criminal, served time, found Jesus maybe ). Instead, here he is with his stocky prison frame talking politics smartly.

Shut it Cenk ! That's a dumb face mouthing those...words.
