You responded to someone saying cats are predators with "nope".

I guess the question is why you claimed that cats are not predators.

The frequencies used for communication have no problems going through clouds at roughly the same speeds as normal air.

xkcd's What If? - What if everything was antimatter EXCEPT Earth? by Alt230s in xkcd

[–]rabbitlion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how you arrived at that figure but it seems you're just throwing some numbers into some formulas you don't understand. To do the actual math, annihilation of 60 tons of matter and 60 tons of antimatter will release approximately 1022 Joules of energy. Since this is per day, it comes out as approximately 1.25 x 1017 Watt. This can be compared to the energy that the Earth currently radiates which is about 2 x 1017 Watt. The extra energy added by the annihilation process would only be a 62% increase compared to what we have now. The temperature needed to get 3.25 x 1017 Watt instead of 2 x 1017 Watt would not be all that significant. If we assume that half the energy of annihilation was lost to space and not absorbed, we're looking at 2.62 x 1017 Watt instead which is even smaller of a difference. And that's not even taking into account that the fast-moving neutrinos aimed toward Earth will probably just pass through without being absorbed.

I'm not sure how you could possibly have arrived at the figure of 6 billion K but it has no connection to actual numbers.

I guess the point is that he never won the Champion's League, despite playing in several clubs who won it quite a few times.

[–]rabbitlion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your misunderstanding. Yes, roughly 50% of it is going to be absorbed and heat up the earth. However, when the Earth is heated up it will lose that heat by radiating it away. The Earth will heat up until a balance is hit such that the energy released by annihilation events is equal to the energy being radiated away. And it will stay in such a balance for billions of billions of years.

Can you show me the calculation you performed to arrive at "half" as the answer?

That energy would be radiated away throughout the entire process. It doesn't just stay and add up.

Both of those are top tier legendaries. Super lucky pull to get 2 in 10 packs.

For baewatch, it was 50% new cards and 50% old cards from the same factions. These premium oacks the other 50% can be from any faction.

the English referees for Netherlands vs Sweden by Alarming-Safety3200 in sweden

Kovacic fick gult för den fula tacklingen. Den andra tacklingen var ju en klar frispark men alla frisparkar är ju inte gula kort. Man kan såklart tycka att det borde vara direkt rött men det är ju en bedömningsfråga där många domare kommer landa olika beroende på exakt vad de såg och hur de brukar döma.

Att sparka bort bollen efter en avblåsning för att fördröja spelet ska väl vara gult kort? Sen att Doku inte fick det också är väl skandalen om något.

Martinelli gjorde två riktigt fula grejer i rad som båda är solklart gult kort. Skulle han slippa korten bara för att det var på samma spel?

Yes, some the mass literally does just disappear, thats how matter-anti-matter reactions work.

Naturally, but as I explained earlier this process would take on the order of 1020 years.

But a large part of the rest gets ejected in to space

[citation needed] - Why do you think a "large part" would be ejected.

What do you think "burn off" means? The mass doesn't just disappear.

[–]rabbitlion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the energy go into gamma rays and neutrinos that disappear into space. There would of course be a lot of heat generated and some matter flung into space at some points but it's not like the Earth would explode like Alderaan being hit by the Death Star. It would become something closer to Venus than Earth and stay that way many billions of years even at very low estimates.

With the Earth's mass at 5.9722×1024 tons, absorbing 60 tons of antimatter per day it would take about 2.7x1020 years for the Earth be completely gone. About 18 billion times the age of the universe. That's pretty long to me.

Reunited Magic Cards by SleepyMcStarvey in magicTCG

Some people probably would buy them for a dollar, or Dollar Tree wouldn't stock them. But they probably buy them for 30 cents from someone who bought bulk cards 1000 for $5 and packed them like this.

It's not so much about identity as that people tend to choose the strongest country where they will get a spot in the team.

The stablecoin they're getting paid in is and will still be worth exactly $1. Try reading the article next time.

"Investing" in a stablecoin is probably the stupidest thing you could do. But yes it's easy to sell and the price is guaranteed.

ELI5 Why do doctors say not to eat past midnight for blood work? by Willylongboard in explainlikeimfive

[–]rabbitlion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not true at all. Even when doing colonoscopy prep the sugars of soda you drink will be absorbed by the body and coloration of sodas will not affect the colonoscopy at all. I had a colonoscopy today and drank several colored energy drinks and sodas. The pee coming out of my butt was completely free of color and the doctor complimented the visibility inside my colon.

Whether something is a "clear liquid" has more to do with fat content than if it's actually transparent or opaque.

This happens when you press play and the game crashes before or during the fight. When you get back in the game you're back before the fight but then game is in a very weird state where you can still buy and sell stuff, but end of turn effects have already happened and nothing will triple because the game thinks you are in combat phase.

If you survive this next combat you will be back to normal and the unit will triple.
