Tankies will tell you that because he was never seen or heard from again, that means that the Chinese government set him up with a nice retirement package and he lived happily ever after!

This would make a great gag gift!

Ah yeah that would be cruel as fuck. Are they doing anything different this time or are they going to torture someone else to death?

That was a great series. I should reread it soon.

That isnt how it works. The speed of light is the speed of causality; it doesn’t have anything to do with light. Its just the fastest speed at which things can happen. Light, being massless, happens to travel at that speed.

In your scenario, the light beam would just be stretched along its length and the 2D interface on the surface of the moon would just “lag behind” from your POV. But it would lag at the speed of light.

ELI5: If I’m moving away from you at 50 KPH and you’re moving away from me in the opposite direction at 50 KPH then after 1 hour we will be 100 kilometers away from each other even though the speed limit is 75 and neither of us broke it.

That’s an extreme reduction but gets the general idea across.

And he has faced consequences for those felony convictions, right?

…Right?

Well you know what they say, if you’re at a dinner table full of Nazis…

Black text on white background. Posted by a no name Nazi on a Nazi platform. Reposted endlessly by no name nobodies on a no name platform. No sources. Smells like propaganda.

Tankies are sure saying Trump is better.

They have critical thinking skills and they’re the most brilliant people to ever grace this earth they’re just drawing the wrong conclusions using their grand magnificence!

It could have caused excruciating agony

Trial will be over by the end of the week and he’ll be executed by the end of the month. Meanwhile cannon will find a clerical error in Donnie’s case and reschedule a review for “some time next year if I feel like it”.

The anti-trust cases against google are why this is being brought up again. Google isnt propping up Mozilla out of altruism or a desire to, I dunno, advertise; they’re doing it so that in court they can point at Mozilla and say, “look! Competitors!”. Its the exact same reason Microsoft bailed out Apple in the 00s. Because without Mozilla, Google is unquestionably a monopoly.

Now, they are anyway. But by keeping Mozilla alive they can pretend in court that they have competitors and that they aren’t engaging in monopolistic practices, which they absolutely are.

Honestly your comment is kind of why they pay the money. “Google doesn’t have a seat at Mozilla, what’s the big deal?”. The big deal is that Google smothers competition and is pretending in court that they aren’t.

I had been keeping an eye on Lemmy for years and years. I’m an open source, federated service enthusiast so Lemmy was always just something I was aware of.

Donnie did an AMA on reddit except it was a huge yuge disaster because he couldn’t comprehend that it wasn’t twitter and all his replies got buried haha

Cog rails let you go up steep slopes, so in a way you could ride a train up a stair case.

Wow this looks great! Can’t wait to try it out.
