Wow that is some real AI slop.

Haha, well if it’s any consolation, nobody fully understands it. That’s why we’re still looking at various theories of quantum gravity or even random gravity.

Hypothesis, sure. But it needs to hold up to testing better than Lambda-CDM if we’re gonna call it the best hypothesis.

I follow this stuff (as a non-physicist) so I understood it. It’s a pretty shallow article and mentions there there’s still evidence for the widely-accepted Lambda-CDM model. But like most coverage of MOND it declines to give good alternate explanations for specific key observations like the Bullet Cluster, gravitational lensing, and galactic outer rotational speeds.

So yeah a new observation that fits better with MOND than LCDM is certainly interesting, but it doesn’t flip the tables unless it does a better job explaining the prior phenomena too.

Ha, I clicked the comments to make this same joke. Have an updoot.

Let me file that under D… for Donut.

Sorry, this post was sarcasm, due to the many redundant posts in multiple communities. It was practically the only news in my feed today.

This. I stopped counting after 10 across news@lemmy.world and politics@lemmy.world alone.

Haha. Oh hey, that’s Zach from SMBC. No wonder it’s weird 😆

I say yes. It’s one of my favorite genres (if you can call it one) and definitely includes loop-based plots like Groundhog Day and Primer. But I also enjoy the Terminator Series and Back to the Future and others that don’t really loop that way. I suspect most fans are similar. It’s hard to imagine enjoying one premise but not the other.

Lake Superior has the same surface area as the entire country of Austria. It even has its own climate systems. Hell yes it should count, let alone the entire lake set. They’re more like inland freshwater seas.

Your anecdote is only the surface level. People may be spending more at shops because they expect inflation will keep going up and the things they need will just get more expensive. And they don’t expect they can save for larger purchases like housing or renovations so they’re buying lower level items while they can afford them. These sort of shallow effects might look like a prospering economy on the outside but they can mask an uglier core.

This is unfair to snakes. They’re fascinating creatures and (aside from some invasive species) have a role in the ecosystem. Fascists are so vastly worse.

I could go give it a negative review if that would help you feel more grounded.

Just kidding, congratulations :)

Right? That should be the message. Average folks appreciate essential services if you press them. But there have been enough scandals and mismanagement (esp. schools and healthcare) that they’re very distrustful that their tax dollars are being used correctly. I don’t know if it’s audacity so much as they just don’t understand that the GOP has been actively sabotaging our systems for decades. But the Dems never seem to call that out, like they’re afraid to name and shame their opponents as liars and swindlers.

The Dems kept making big proclamations about how the economy has rebounded under the Biden administration. But no one except the wealthy has benefited from that. It felt genuinely insulting every single time. Average folks in the US keep seeing bills, grocery prices, subscription services, and especially housing costs rise steadily. People are so worried about paying for these core things.

But the party never listened to Bernie and just kept saying “look, we fixed it” when they clearly didn’t, and I believe that drove away voters.

I went to a brewpub the other day and I thought I respected them. But then the side of tots they gave me (for an upcharge no less) couldn’t even fill one hand. So disappointed.

Hold onto your butts, we’re going exponential.

What kind of restaurants and food are popular there? Is it a fairly even mix of things from neighboring cultures, or does something stand out? Anything unique to the region?

If it’s labeled “holy” I assume a priest stuck his willy in it, so no.
