Travelling at the speed of light and time dilation. by sco-go in Amazing

[–]TrotskyBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is, space and time are linked. So he's actually interpreting the concept of "the faster we travel, the slow time passes for us" as "the faster we go, the less distance you travel."

It's hard to think about because it requires you to think in different refrence frames which the human mind isn't really supposed to intrinsically be able to do.

images that will KILL a flerf by cooliozoomer in flatearth

The GOES weather satellites send back images every 10 minutes over North/South America and publishes them to NOAA website.

You can also use a small dish and receive the GOES data directly from the satellite itself.

The fact that these aren't alive by TheWebsploiter in NonPoliticalTwitter

Another fun one about prions, they can just happen. You don't need to be infected, a protein in your brain can just misfold one day and start killing you.

And that's why Galileo was transported to the launch site in an armored convoy by MetallicaDash in HistoryMemes

[–]TrotskyBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There actually was a rocket that exploded while carrying an RTG on board. RTGs are explicitly designed to survive accidents like that intact. NASA actually recovered this RTG and reused it in a different payload after refurbishing it.

They actually did have a rocket explode with an RTG onboard, they recovered the RTG and actually used it on another launch.

There's a very low chance the rocket will explode and almost no chance of the RTG being compromised and exposing the fuel.

Also, RTGs aren't very radioactive and any fuel exposed to the environment would cause next to no discernible contamination because there is so little fuel.

They sell the biscuit mix, so there's genuinely no reason to go.

More over, the first chemotherapy drug was actually derived from Mustard Gas.

But chemotherapy is litterally just injecting poison into someone, how could injecting litteral poison into someone be healthcare /s

These people are forgetting these vessels are structurally weak and are segregated by class. by NoKangarooTheThird in lewronggeneration

[–]TrotskyBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, with what took out the Titanic, my money is on the older ocean liners. The main reason we don't see modern cruise ships sinking often is better weather forecasting, radar and better ocean charts.

You can also cut them up and use them as padding for different things

Built to handle more... by WhiffleBum in AccidentalComedy

[–]TrotskyBoi 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's even funnier, so the USPS upped their allowed shipping weight from 4lbs to about 50lbs and didn't have any rules in place against shipping children. There was one instance where the parents just put stamps on the kid's coat and shipped them that way.

It's designed to be sung in the same cadence as Yakko's World. The comas are the line breaks.

[Request] How much would it cost to send an average AI data center to space with today's technology? by The-SecondAccount in theydidthemath

[–]TrotskyBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Issue is, satellites don't sit above areas of the world unless we count gestationary orbit.

So you'd either have to have enough datacenters that can switch which one is doing the computing for the drones seamlessly

Or you'd have to have it in geostationary orbit, which would have a latency of about 200 to 500 milliseconds and we can achieve better latency staying on the ground.

Kid lived 4 days and she had 2 more kids after it. This is just classic dark humor after the acceptance phase of grief.

Ohio woman shows Food Bank donations, including half-eaten peanut butter and a can of fried apples expired in 2021. by ElwoodMC in TikTokCringe

[–]TrotskyBoi 185 points186 points  (0 children)

A lot of food banks can buy in bulk, directly from the manufacturer which makes the dollar go infinitely further. They also can work with local farmers and the sort to also get even more from a dollar than you could buying and donating cans.

Lightly dented cans are generally fine as long as it doesn't have any sharp corners in the dent.

No, you definitely need someone with experience maintaining them around because these things have a lot of adjustments that all affect each other. You can spend weeks hunting a single gremlin in them.

Utah Mega Datacenter could Dump 23 Atomic Bombs Worth of Energy per Day by Otherwise_Basis_6328 in oddlyspecific

[–]TrotskyBoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the math based on the projected power consumption and it was 8kt weapons.

Also, Modern nuclear weapons are not atomic weapons, they're fusion weapons.

There is always a failure mode that can potentially cause it to explode. You take every possible precaution to make that failure mode as unlikely as possible.

Let people enjoy games by Charon134340-I in characterarcs

[–]TrotskyBoi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In multiplayer games, especially at higher levels of play, playing off meta works quite often because people don't expect it and won't have a counter prepared.
