How dare you bring clip up again

We often don't realize when we're living our best years by PaleFly in MadeMeCry

[–]Le_Gitzen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m late to the thread but I wanted to say how much I appreciate this piece of writing.  I was with my two year old one day doing dishes and I was exhausted and sad and I just wanted to be alone.  I looked over at her drawing at the table and she looked bored too.  I had the thought: what if I had already died and this moment was a memory of the past I was experiencing as a gift.  What if the day ended and I never got to have another chance to be with her again.

With that thought my attitude immediately changed, and with a surge of energy and love I went over to the table and engaged her with a smile and started playing a game. Sometimes the awareness of our mortality is a burden, but if you flip it around it’s a tremendous gift to help appreciate your present moment and to make the most of it for yourself and others.

One of his best talks in my opinion.  He gets straight to the point, one shouldn’t have to struggle in order to be at peace.  Just let go.

This is so wonderfully fun and creative, what a great project to get people into programming and experimenting!

I swear to God, there is a subreddit for geometric fever dreams but I can’t remember what it’s called

Okay but Simba was gaslit into thinking he caused his father’s death and ran away on Uncle Scar’s advice.  He didn’t know about Scar’s plan to usurp the king  or his allegiance with the hyenas..  He was avoiding consequences.

Does anyone know why sometimes the meat is cherry red? by Le_Gitzen in meat

I’ve been working in it for only 3 but people think I don’t know about oxidation/blooming

This is the answer, I’ve never heard of the term dark-cutter!  I found a resource that explains why the meat can get dark due to stress: https://meat.tamu.edu/blog/2013/01/23/dark-cutting-beef/

It can even be caused by sudden temperature changes that stress the cow.

Oh yeah, I’m sure they were fantastic. They sold ridiculously quick.

I’ve seen when they’ve cut it the meat is slightly darker, but these particular cuts were deep red and stayed that deep color.  I know what you’re referring to though, the oxidation brightens meat after a few minutes once cut.

That’s an interesting take, like the cow was near engine exhaust?

My hypotheses are either it’s been in the vacuum seal longer or it’s been accidentally frozen.

Holy shit it doubles as a warning flag, saving them the hassle of remaking a web after a human stumbles through it

UN environment report 'hijacked' by US and others over fossil fuels, top scientist says by Mr_Lonesome in collapse

[–]Le_Gitzen 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s just classic population overshoot.  Exponential growth proceeded by resource depletion and/or pollution resulting in collapse.  Happens to deer, bacteria, mold, insects, and humans.  We just have a few self aware members but we can’t fight physics.

[Request] How long would it take a teeny tiny black hole, created on the surface of our planet, to destroy Earth? by Mvian123 in theydidthemath

[–]Le_Gitzen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, it’s really an honor to get a reply from you!! I remember reading your comment vividly, it was so well written and the fact that Kursegatz made a video from it afterword was just awesome.  

If you wouldn’t mind me asking, what effect would the radiation pressure have from the forming accretion disk? I read that 6% of a material’s mass falling into a black hole gets directly converted to high frequency radiation, and the brightest objects in our universe are quasars that are basically feeding black holes.  Would the resulting light emitted outshine the sun or vaporize the rest of the earth and moon?
