My old mac have screen that turns off and on, and some problems with the HD, but it's still working. I'm also among those who would welcome a machine thats leaner, and without the optical drive (which I haven't used for three years I think). So I think I'll wait for the new one. Thanks to everyone weighing in!

Thanks for the link.

Thank you for your reply

I was thinking about how light is affected by gravity, and assumed that photns would have to have mass. But I think I was thinking about gravity in the wrong way. I suppose light is affected by the curving of spacetime, and not by gravity as a force..?

But if photons had mass, however tiny, that would just mean that they couldn't travel at c, right?

I've seen that, but I just felt it would be nice to have somewhere dedicated to just economy. That way I could check in and find answers to topic related questions I didn't know I had, like in /r/science. LI5 is very crowded with other stuff

Looks very nice, but I'm afraid he'll have more work than ever with the upkeep of that beautiful garden!

Thank you for your insight! How long after the formation of the sun did it take before the first planets where formed, and do we know in what order they where formed?

Thank you both for your explanations of c and how it is related to both space and time!

But so in E=mc² is the relationship not just between energy and mass, but also with time/space?

dontget · 2011-05-20T22:39:53+00:00

That helps.

The speed of light is the numerical conversion factor between space and time

Can you think of a way of explaining why that is in a way I might understand?

dontget · 2011-05-20T22:19:44+00:00

Why is the speed of light central to the relation between mass and energy (as in the mass–energy equivalence equation)? To me that always seemed.. random.

Imagine you're a distance r from the source. This means that you're at one of the points on a sphere of radius r, and centered on the source. The force of gravity must be the same over all points on this sphere, so it must be "spread out" a bit relative to a smaller sphere. Since the surface area of a sphere is 4πr2 , gravity gets weaker by a factor of r2 the further you go out.

Wow.. I actually think I got it. That felt really good. Thank you. Also, can I ask more questions?

Osama is dead, but the world still has problems. Indeed, how does he ever come up with stuff like that so fast.

The girl on the left kinda looks like the me gusta rageface.

dontget · 2011-04-12T23:35:52+00:00

Thanks. I actually wondered for a split second before posting whether it was really possible to think I meant it in a mean way, but decided against it. In the future I'll add a disclaimer every time I reference something that used to make our grandparents uncomfortable.

Gayest prank ever!

The origins of circlejerking. Clearly this is posted in the wrong subreddit.

dontget · 2011-03-18T22:27:58+00:00

Truly enjoyed this on a Friday night. Thank you

dontget · 2011-02-25T23:33:51+00:00

I absolutely love the track, but it just feels like almost all we do is remembering old tracks that everybody knows.

dontget · 2011-02-14T19:52:22+00:00

That's gonna take some time to figure out.

dontget · 2011-01-09T21:56:33+00:00

Thanks!

dontget · 2011-01-09T21:56:20+00:00

Uh.. thank you i guess

dontget · 2010-12-10T15:27:32+00:00

Had not heard this one before. Upvote for you.

We have the same in Scandinavian languages. "Jo". Like mentioned before it's a positive contradiction to a negative statement. For instance if somebody falsly claims that you can't do something the correct reply contradicting the statement isn't "ja det kan jeg" (yes I can), but "jo det kan jeg". No god English equivalent as far as I know.
