By design, they don’t know how they work. It’s interesting to see this experimentally proven, but it was already known. In the same way the predictive text function on your phone keyboard doesn’t know how it works.

Yes, our time system is weird

I hadn’t heard of most of those examples besides burnt/burned, but I do know of learned/learnt, which hasn’t been mentioned.

Humans are both uniquely good at getting things done in groups, but also make terrible decisions as groups.

The meaning? It seems fairly self evident, a critique of internet arguments, not far from that cliche of ‘touching grass’

GIMP doesn’t mean anything though (besides for GNU Image Manipulation Program)? Why are you bringing it up?

Moist filament leads to bubbly prints :)

I use empty cardboard boxes and shoe boxes to store my coin collection, and one to use to dry out my spools of filament.

What books are they? It’s possible you could find them on one of the sites linked on fmhy.net

That may be true. But that’s also just an appeal to authority. What’s more relevant is that they’re unethical. What if international law said they were ok, would you also think they’re ok?

They’re making it legal. But law != morality.

Have you watched The Owl House? That show always cheers me up with its wholesomeness

At least 16 is age of consent :p

You think pictures of children is porn? If that’s the case, you maybe the one with the problem. There is nothing sexual in the image you linked.

No single source. I like how Verity collates the facts and the spins from multiple sources across the web.

Doesn’t he also objectify women?

Indiana Jones actually claims to be an archeologist, he would be a better target.

No, you would physiologically age at the same fast-forwarded time rate. Essentially, for you, less time would pass at the same time that more time passes for the outside world.

Do you mean ðe? Thorn is pronounced like the th in thing, not the th in the

The light takes the same amount of time to get there from an external point of view. It’s more like time slows down for you the faster you go, which from an external perspective would look like you moving and acting slower than normal. So in the time it would take light to travel 1 light year, it always takes one year. However, you would be slowed down so much that it would appear to you that much less time had passed, maybe only a few days. If you travel at the speed of light you slow down so much that no time passes for you at all at that speed. So you instantly arrive, from your point of view. However, from the point of view of an external observer, it still took one year.

Essentially, it slows down the amount of time you experience, but the amount of time that actually passes externally doesn’t change. If you go to the moon, it will take only 1 second at light speed, so you wouldn’t really notice whether it felt instant or to take a second. However, if you go somewhere further like Proxima Centauri, which is 4 light years away, you will arrive back on Earth at least 8 years later (there and back). If you go at light speed, it would appear to be instant, suddenly you’re at Proxima Centauri 4 years later, suddenly you’re back at Earth 8 years later. If you go just below light speed, you’ll see the world outside go past like it’s being fast forwarded, and when you return, 8 years will have been compressed into something that seems much shorter to you.
