Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•A time machine that allows you to travel as a ghost would be the best time machine.6·1 year agoNot quite, the true invariant quantity is the magnitude of the spacetime 4 vector, which depends on rest mass.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•A time machine that allows you to travel as a ghost would be the best time machine.11·1 year agoIt actually goes further than that. In spacetime you’re always going the same speed, the more in space, less in time.
At least from the special relativity perspective.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•It seems like all packaged foods do this nowEnglish131·1 year agoThat seems around what I’d expect the measurement error to be anyway
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Linux Questions@lemmy.zip•How good/bad are the Linux drivers for Intel Arc GPUs right now?English3·1 year agoI’m interested in trying to install Linux on my arc laptop, I’m wondering as well. I might try in the next few days.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto [Dormant] Electric Vehicles (Moved to !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net)@lemmy.world•[Question] Do charging stations generally accept credit/debit cards?6·1 year agoI’ve only rented an ev, but only about half the time they have successfully taken a cc. Either they were broken, or it was just missing.
A lot of them have apps, which is very annoying as a renter, but if you own the car it should be less of an issue.
Afaik you don’t actually need to purchase a subscription to use them.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Collapse@lemmy.ml•Collapse Will Look Nothing Like in the MoviesEnglish1·1 year agoEventually yes, but I personally think that recycling solar panels and so on could slow collapse much more than the author suggests.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Collapse@lemmy.ml•Collapse Will Look Nothing Like in the MoviesEnglish4·1 year agoAlso batteries, lithium is expensive so a lot of companies are trying to come up with cheaper, but also more sustainable alternatives. And they already have with lithium iron phosphate that requires less lithium. And as prices for a substance rise, so will the desire for alternatives and recycling.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Cool Guides@lemmy.ca•Which Countries Have the Largest Forests?English5·1 year agoId like to see this normalized for country size. As is, its really just a country size list, with some slight variations.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto General Discussion@lemmy.world•With the controversy with the border in Texas. Why has no once asked what is driving so many to the boarder?201·1 year agoWe caused, indirectly or even directly, many of the causes that people are trying flee from in their home countries in Latin america.
The vast majority of them are trying to flee gang violence.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux Mint 21.3: Empowering tech-savvy Moms with the Perfect Desktop Experience36·1 year agoIt really does read like an ad, which is amusingly ironic since linux mint is free.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How long will food be safe to eat if frozen immediately after cooking it?422·1 year agoThey will be safe to eat indefinitely, but may not be palatable, depending on how it’s stored.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto [Outdated, please look at pinned post] Casual Conversation@lemmy.world•How much should I care about news?English8·1 year agoThere are other elections throughout the year… Midterms at the federal level, and often state and local elections too.
Admittedly how it works in the US, but I’m sure still applies in other countries, maybe not everywhere.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Solarpunk Urbanism@slrpnk.net•Your City's Wealth Isn't Where You ThinkEnglish4·1 year agoThose lots are probably a quarter the size of the lot I’m on, in a affluent suburban house. Maybe even smaller
Its true that it’s not that dense though.
It’s also pretty likely that there are more residents per house than a typical affluent neighborhood.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Solarpunk Urbanism@slrpnk.net•Your City's Wealth Isn't Where You ThinkEnglish5·1 year agoA lot of strong towns framing uses “financial productivity” defined as tax revenue per unit area, usually acre. Poor neighborhood’s houses may be cheap, but are packed much more densely, leading to higher revenue per unit area. less in taxes per lot, but also lower maintenance costs per lot.
Sounds like intels optane drives
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: You can search (most of?) lemmy as a search engine0·1 year agoBecause lemmy search sucks. Its very specific, and usually the most relavant stuff is buried by tangetially related things.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•City roads should be ‘ripped out completely’ to fight pollution, says government adviserEnglish1·1 year agoIn the Netherlands they use bike lanes.
A two way bike lane is wide enough for emergency vehicles like an ambulance, and bikers get out of the way.
Magiccupcake@startrek.websiteto Parenting@lemmy.world•Child's other mom is turning my kiddo anti-science and anti-vaccine. Help me fight the good fight!4·1 year agoA good bet is alternative media, things like kurzgesagt, verisitium or other science outreach programs.
The other thing is education, engage with his education, and teach him yourself to think critically.
And I hate to say it to say it, but religion conditions kids to brainwashing. Even if not extremists.
Feel comfortable pointing out flaws in Christianity and question them with him.
And lastly, try not to be argumentitive. You need to carefully tease him out of these beliefs, not destroy them.
That would feel like you are attacking him and will probably be counterproductive.
Yes but that’s socialist.
And goes against my donors paycheck.
/s but many people in charge are willfully ignorant that society can be built in a way that doesn’t rely on cars.
