do those orbits get larger over time?

Yes, I think they do.

I think that expansion doesn’t increase distance, but velocity between objects (or so was my interpretation back when I looked at the formulas). That means that moving objects speed up over time. As such, orbital velocities increase, too, and that lifts their orbit - similar to when a rocket on a closed orbit propulses forward.

But I might be wrong; I feel 70% certain about this one.

Here in Vienna there’s a very good one (ironically called Berlin Döner) that is 5€.

That is actually precisely what the “paradox of the cock” is saying.

A rooster crows every morning. They observe this and conclude that statistically, they can’t die. Which is bullshit, ofc.

are there absolute numbers? it would be interesting to know how big is the deviation.

good question. my bet is aluminum production would go up, because it’s frankly a nice material to work with, has excellent properties in many fields, and if electricity becomes cheap/clean, then there’s nothing stopping the aluminum world-domination.

I think it’s areas.

Actually, that’s a good thing, because if some extraordinary event happens, like a gigantic volcano eruption, we want to have food to spare.

Yeah but the babies were small, which is what matters here.

The thing with eggs is that they would probably have to be huge. I guess that the egg would maybe have to be 10x the size of the finished baby (Idk for sure though) due to inefficiencies in the food metabolism. While for chickens, that’s not a problem because the babies are small, for humans it would be difficult.

IMO Debian is already pretty far middle-ground. The packages are new enough for my personal usage.

what keeps the water going while it makes its journey from the Alps to the sea?

you know what they say, milk makes beautiful skin. so.

I disagree that it’s “hardwired in our brains”. It certainly has a strong cultural bias. Also, I kinda look at it like a gynologist: If you’ve seen 20 of them naked, it gets boring and you stop staring, I guess.

I assume it’s because France is a sane country.

“freedom” as in “free to economic growth” but not “free” as in “free to do what you want”

I wonder whether it was the right decision to not federate with Threads.

On the one hand, yes, they would have caused a lot of problematic content, but on the other hand, it would have meant a lot of new users, and that would have livened up the place a bit. I guess.

Maybe we could do a switch in the user profile for Lemmy where it says “show Thread posts in All posts”. Or something.

uuh, new users for the fediverse. looking forward to y’all ;-)

They wouldn’t wear a leash because they aren’t a dog.

That would be true if the world is hollow.

But we know it is not.

Yeah I think the human brain is a vehicle for “mind virus” which is script and ideas.
