Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Wednesday, 20-Mar-2024 00:06:23 JST Anime Wong @Griffith @Vril_Oreilly @BowsacNoodle @Paultron @Spingebill I think the question is "why hasn't Russia sent out a call to Americans to immigrate to Russia". They could provide for basic stuff to help offset the cost of moving out into the Russian Frontier. Japan, for example, has done something like this, albeit for Japanese citizens. Basically, they have a lot of farmland that's being depopulated or are abandoned. If you agree to move into these rural areas and work in agriculture, the Japanese government would help cover the cost, including making the house and land super cheap (but I can't remember the specific details for the arrangement). -

Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 08-Mar-2024 07:00:20 JST Anime Wong @BowsacNoodle @wgiwf @SuperSnekFriend @merchantHelios @teknomunk People did that before him I think, Edward Barnard was probably the first to consistently do it in the early 1880s. What he did was use the largest telescope at the time (The Hale telescope) to study something called 'cepheid variable stars'. Keeping it simple, types of stars have a easily predictable brightness, so he could make an estimate of the distance to them. The measurement showed that all of these nebula were significantly further away than pretty much anything else we knew of, suggesting they were outside the Milky Way.
The images below are of Barnard, vs the one Hubble used. -

Also, here's a picture I took of it a few weeks ago. -

Only certain morphs will allow for intelligence. High dexterity to manipulate tools, a large brain, sharp vision. Maybe they won't all look human exactly, but I think all the basic shapes would be needed there, and it would probably end up looking humanish. -

Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 08-Mar-2024 02:48:15 JST Anime Wong @merchantHelios I didn't know that, neat!
Related, the evidence for the big bang is that most everything on the galactic scale seems to be moving away from us. However, scientists tend to apply a "universalist" approach to physics (basically, anything true for us must also be true everywhere else). So instead of assuming that everything is moving away radially from Earth, they say the scale of space is what's expanding, so that everything seems to be moving away from everything else.
There is somewhat of a good reason to assume this, the main proof being "Hubble's Law", which demonstrates that we can predict how far away something is by how fast it's moving. This would match the scaling effect of space stretching equally everywhere. This is best demonstrated, I think, by laying the same image on top of itself, and increasing the scale of one. As you move it around, you can see how everything seems to move away from the point where both images align.
Anyway, this explanation isn't perfect. One of the biggest flaws is Dark energy. Basically, Dark energy appears to be something that is changing Hubble's Law, meaning that you have to add an additional fudge factor to it to account for an increase of speed over distance. No one knows why.
Part of me wonders, if the Universe were to have "exploded" from a central point like Earth, would it not make sense for the material on the outer edge to be moving faster, and to do so non linearly? -

But also
>We have to depict the largest demographic in this country as the only ones who commit crimes.
I'd respect them more if they decided to only use drawn images of androgynous criminals with green skin. -

"Don't you understand? They silenced anyone online who was even remotely a Trump supporter, that's mostly how they cheated".
"Yeah, but what's really important is they rigged the election!" -

Almost no energy needed to keep it in the air, it could stick around for days, maybe even weeks. -

It wouldn't need much energy to stay in one position, since it's buoyant. Big issue would be wind storms. -

They subtly pedojacket anyone who likes anime. Kiwifarmers are probably the least fun people on the planet to be around. -

A tangent, but the Egyptians did paint themselves more accurately, and they more or less look how you'd expect, somewhat Arab somewhat Mediterranean. But I imagine these represent only the highest classes of society. There's a description of the people Cleopatra brought when she went to Rome, and they described that she had an army of slaves who looked like they came from Northern Europe (if I remember correctly, because they had such red hair). -

Actually happened once, kinda. Qian Xuesen left the US and returned to China in the 1950's after refusing to work on the US ballistic missile program (which he thought would be used against "his people". He became their most important scientist because of how closely he worked with the US military, basically handed them both fission and fusion bomb as well as ICBM's in an incredibly short time. -

Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Tuesday, 06-Feb-2024 02:15:06 JST Anime Wong @justnormalkorean @qwerty I saw this happen to a friend recently. They use to have a set amount of pto in a given year, but they had a problem where niggers would get hired in places like the companies call center, immediately take PTO for a month, and then quit once it was used up.
So the company, being progressive, hired a nigger HR manager to solve the problem. Her solution? Accrue PTO over time. So instead of having something like a month of PTO at the start of the year, you have zero pto and then you get 2 days of PTO per month.
This has caused chaos at the company. Of course, the biggest problem is going to be that almost everyone is going to take a bulk of their time off in the winter, when they're most busy. The HR manager "retired" over it (she actually announce that she isn't in retirement, but "definement"), and the company basically said "yeah... we're technically sticking with this, but if you need more pto ask your manager."
