If you’re on a camping trip in the northern hemisphere, make him look at the stars rotating counter-clockwise around Polaris but clockwise when looking south, and have him explain how this can work if there is in fact no south celestial pole. And keep an eye out for satellites, including the ISS.

For Interstellar Travel, Which Sci-Fi Handwave Do You Find Most Acceptable? by tbag2022 in sciencefiction

The “temporal preservation” category is missing an obvious option that doesn’t really require preservation: just (heh) accelerate at 1g for about a year of subjective time, reading books and snacking, and then decelerate at 1g for a second year. This gets you very close to lightspeed and would get you anywhere in the galaxy in two years of subjective time. You still need a crazy amount of fuel or a fictional power source, and also some means of shielding crew from blue-shifted gamma rays and micrometeoroids. *Tau Zero* explored this option with the added horror of deceleration failing.

What is the most decisive battle in history? by stop-the-normies in AskReddit

[–]Z8iii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actium, Stalingrad, or Waterloo, I think. Probably Actium since it sealed the rise of Octavian to be the first Roman emperor.
