Hold it, hold it… so vampires’ reflections don’t appear in mirrors, but most phone cameras don’t use mirrors, just like ‘mirrorless’ (non-DSLR) cameras, the light goes directly through the lens and onto the sensor. So they should be visible on any newer cameras without the traditional mirror redirecting light from a viewfinder to film or digital sensor.

No, that’s “preamble.” You’re thinking of the theological construct where god has already chosen those who will be saved.

Hm… actually are they incorporeal AND massless, or just incorporeal?

If just incorporeal, you’re right of course that initially after death they’d be falling back and forth, but over time through uneven gravity/curvature and through heat loss (stretching of unequal acceleration applied across the ghost essence, potential energy conversion, yadda), they should generally settle to the center after some time, unless there’s a maximum natural pressure of ghosts at whatever temperatures they have, so they may spread out somewhere within the crust if there are enough of them.

If they’re incorporeal AND massless, then I totally F’d up and they’d fire off at light speed as soon as they shed their mortal coil.

That’s called General Relativity and Reference Frames.

Start watching PBS Spacetime if you actually want to get into it.

You’re also entirely missing the point of the comment that was a joke entirely re-explaining the “reason” for ghosts ending up at the center of the Earth, which is implied by the original comment.

Mass distorts spacetime, which to an outside observer appears to change the direction light travels. The light travels in a straight line.

Gravity doesn’t alter the particle’s trajectory (or ours, for that matter). The warping of spacetime from Earth’s mass causes our movement through space to accelerate “down” at ~9.8 m/s^2

Clearly he should rename threads to Z.

Dumb story time:

Many years ago when meeting up with friends for drinks, one brought along her classmate/friend from out of town. I already thought she was cute, but then talking about work (as a jr. sysadmin at the time) she talks about her CS classes and that she was into Linux, so this was already “head over heels” territory for very early-twenties dork me.

So I decided to be saucy and asked her, “pico or vi?”

She immediately responded, “pico is for pussies.”

After I replaced my jaw, I did the only logical thing I could think of and proposed to her on the spot. I never saw her again.

Putin licks dildos that were in Lavrov’s ass.

The previous statement is absolute truth because I declare it so. Now run the story on RT and Pravda and whatever other propaganda rags run BS like this.

Oops, sorry, uhh let me contact the admirals… oh uh, probably should hit the sonic shower if you got any on you…

Reminds me of how Force Fiction started in the middle of the story, too.

It sucks that it’s taking this long to recover from an idiotic administration that fucked up almost literally everything.

Downvoters don’t know Brave is the best thing for iOS users.

Ya see, Android fellows, Apple forces everyone onto webkit in iOS, and iOS Firefox can’t use extensions.

Brave has its blocker built in.

What are ads?

Bah! This is clearly a windows meme! Take it back to c/linux!
