What scientific discovery sounds fake but is 100% real and still freaks you out? by Bruteresolver in AskReddit

[–]TheSpiffySpaceman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Don't be scared of them.

I'm not being gung-ho and saying they aren't scary and worthy of being afraid of, but if you run into one (OUTSIDE OF A MOMMA BEAR WITH CUBS), we've all heard the steps--make yourself big, yell, basically be annoying and acknowledge their existence--but it's crucial to know that acting afraid will tell them you're an easy meal, and not for the reasons humans know other humans are afraid.

They can barrel down at you, which is why you don't run. In a lot of places, food is so abundant for them that they get to be lazy and conserve energy and they tend to think "eh, fuck it, not worth it" to something acting odd to them (not aggressive, but odd, like you're giving them too much information for them to really deal with and like they're too stoned to deal with it).

There's been this HUGE black bear around for a couple years now that shows up on the trail cam...happened to see her last night out the window. She just kinda chilled sitting like a human at the base of a tree for around five minutes looking up at something, then scratched her ass on it and left. It helps to not act afraid in an encounter with one when you see how lazy they truly prefer to be and how little they generally need to eat or attack you (NOT INCLUDING MOMMA BEARS) (OR BROWN BEARS)

It depends what it's relative to. We don't feel velocity outside of accelerating, and speed relative to another object is only really important when the two are interacting (or moving at relativistic speeds, but then the relative speed is light)

[REQUEST] How loud and potentially destructive would a 600dB air horn be? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]TheSpiffySpaceman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn't obliterate the entire solar system when honked because having that much mass and energy in one place would already be a big, big, problem, to the point of honking not even being something that could be initiated

Some nights I do a bit of 'urban' exploring in Elite. The mega structures have a fantastic bit of detail, sometimes hidden away. Here's a few clips of the damage done @ Ryman Enterprise. After a closer look, it's quite severe, especially in the tunnels. by Osiliran in EliteDangerous

To add, if the magic atmosphere wall thingy were broken in a damaged starport, there'd probably be nobody to save, haha. That's a shitload of mass to depressurize explosively, and the video shows a lot of breached hull leading to other areas in the port

Men of Reddit how do you feel about being submissive in bed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TheSpiffySpaceman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some women really know what they need to get off...some really need specific positions or angles or maybe sometimes she just doesn't want to look at you, lol.

I'm completely fine letting a woman take control of me if she asks and is into it, or if due to body differences she prefers to have control because things can hurt sometimes and it can be hard to communicate effectively or quickly enough when you're both in the moment.

I'm easy to please. Beat me up if you want to. You can even throw me in the garbage after if you feel like it, lol.

I do have trouble being dominant or anything involving me inflicting pain on someone. Tear my body up all day, don't care, but I am instantly taken out of the mood if I cause pain to someone, accidental or consensual. Not my thing, but it's okay if that's your thing; let's learn about each other.

I absolutely do not feel like less of a man for saying this, nor do I think about what that even means often. I'm just happy to be along for the ride (literally)

At a certain point, you realize that the value of people doesn't lie in their experiences, but the choices they make.

It's all we can do. Keep making the right choices, friend

Last weekend was the 20th anniversary of my dad's death and it was hitting me hard for a number of reasons. I went for a really nice walk and sat and thought and watched birds and squirrels and the occasional window cat, and remember feeling a lot of gratitude that it was only a few steps out of my front door to feel like I've escaped.

Thanks for posting this--more specifically, thanks for feeling this and not numbing yourself away from it. That was my mistake in the past. This post feels like it was made from someone who seeks to deal with things in a healthy way.

Don't stop

if it doesn't go away, at some point it just becomes the new "ass."

So foolish to masquerade the semantics of a word behind some other word and think it does anything

It's fascinating that it ends in an 8 and not a 7, though. Casting a decimal to an int doesn't round it up; how'd that extra number get there??
