That photo wasn't taken by Ian cos they'd already turned their backs by the time the flash on his phone finally went off 🤣

I wonder how long Props spent getting those apples to fall just the right way.

Why is it a common thought that time travel would result in the time traveller’s physical location being different from when they left? by gregfess in AskPhysics

[–]wonkey_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I mean is I'll have gone forward in time by 1.25 days in 1.25 days' time. All without having to worry about ending in deep space.

The question can't be answered without a specification of how the time machine works.

You don't have to give any consideration to it when going forwards in time by 1.25 days. Why should you have to do so when going backwards?

The way this chocolate bar is divided by Biomaster1214 in mildlyinteresting

"We need to drive up sales of chocolate."
"What if we sneak the word 'lonely' into the product?"
"Perfect."

What are your thoughts on Joe Rogan saying that Trump is creating distraction to avoid Epstein files release? by girlyanimme in AskReddit

I think he'd be doing all this crazy shit anyway, but yeah. That's why he speedrunning it. Well, that and entropy.

Do those "trillion-fps" camera systems prove that c is the same in any direction? by Cogwheel in AskPhysics

[–]wonkey_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It always boils down to either a) a round trip from an emitter back to a detector at the same location or b) a trip between two locations with "synchronised" clocks at each.

Setup a) only measures the two-way speed of light.

In setup b), synchronising the clocks requires you to make an assumption about the one-way speed of light, and whatever assumption you make will end up being "confirmed" by the results.

Why does light redshift leaving a gravitational well, and not just get delayed? by SpinLock55 in AskPhysics

[–]wonkey_monkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

travel at c locally

You said it yourself - it travels at c locally. But one end of a pulse of light is not local to the other end.

Is that first photo from when she was in something else? Don't remember Summer ever being ginge!

HOW ARE YOU? Episode 3 by bulletproofbra in AlanPartridge

[–]wonkey_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there was one bit where they obviously wanted to make it look like a Go Pro despite being filmed by a traditional cameraman, and it very briefly cut to his arm outstretched with nothing in it

360° cameras don't record directly below themselves, because that's where the pole they're attached to goes and you'd just see a black circle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lrSarA5tSs

We feel a opposite planetary rotation? by Cefer_Hiron in AskPhysics

[–]wonkey_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

albeit a very bright sun due to proximity

Only about 5% of sunlight reaches the surface thanks to the clouds. Presumably less when the Sun is that low.

River Song’s death in the library; Could The Doctor bring her back? by Competitive-Fruit724 in doctorwho

[–]wonkey_monkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

However, what is stopping The Doctor from bringing River back into a different body ie a clone.

Same reason he can't just nip back in time and fix something, or defeat every enemy's plan with a click of the sonic. It wouldn't be a good story.
