It's so bizarre, I was just talking to the wife about it a couple nights ago, we have 2 cats, about 5 years old now, they're sisters, almost everything about them is the same, but 1 I can pet for a half hour without any electro static discharge, the other I can't stroke twice without an audible shock being generated.
Same clothing, same motion, same grounding potential. Every 10 seconds I zap the poor baby. My wife doesn't have this problem at all.
I think it could be a case study for this paper.

I never thought to ask this question before. How many of you are equally capable of using your right versus your left hand?
Donjuanme 2 days ago • 100%
My mom is, it didn't pass down to me or my brother. I suspect she was born left handed (that did pass down to me), and it was "corrected"out of her, now she's equally klutzy (read not at all a klutz) with either hand.
One of my recent work places actually had 1:1 left to right handed people, in a group of 12, there was even one guy who insisted on using the mouse with his left hand (we shared a couple different terminals and you could tell when he was the most recent one to use it). That man was a monster.

One of the greatest story boarded movies to ever be written, I can't believe how much it builds on itself. It was set up amazingly. I don't get to recommend it to nearly as many people as I'd like, because eff it's scary, but I'm not a big horror movie fan and it's one that I recommend with surprising frequency.

Our first pair, one went from kidney disease (many years of diabetes before this) ten years ago, the other left us 3 weeks ago (18 years) but was possibly a disguised vampire who feasted on her sister as her first victim (evidenced by: her long life and a string of very unfortunate puppys, her blending into the night, and her somehow being allergic to cats)
Here's to Tiggy and Fluffy hanging out in the good place. (My wife swore she would never have a cat named fluffy, but it fit her too well, within a year she was fluffy and she remained fluffy her whole life)

What does engulfing the earth mean to you? The mass of the sun expanded to a body 1 au would not be very dense. My money says the earth would continue to orbit "inside the sun" for quite a while, but the orbit would degrade more quickly.
But yes, I argue get them out of the earths gravity well and let Newton handle the rest, no reason to propel them in any direction, eventually they'll get to the sun.

My argument is it's more energy efficient to shoot something towards the sun that will have the same result as hitting the sun than it is to get it out of the solar system.

I don't know how I got this job, sure it doesn't pay the best in the field, and you need lots of specialized training, and with that training you can go to much more prestigious work, but it pays enough. I don't know why the previous person to do it left (the commute was too much for her, but I would've moved closer if I was her). She trained me very briefly because I knew most of the ins and outs already, she told me the boss had been in and out of remission with bone cancer, but the last flair up was taken care of years ago. It's been 7 years since he was first diagnosed, and he's had 2 replacements, they won't do a third. He doesn't want to try the experimental treatments because he'd rather enjoy the time he has. I've worked for him for 3 years and I feel so greedy wanting to scream at him to try every avenue available. He has 3 amazing kids, a wife and in-laws who live him, he loves coming into work, he just finished renovating his forever home. And I don't want a different boss. I need more time with my mentor, my friend, the best boss I've ever had. I just learned this morning, and it's really raw, I need to get it off my chest, I don't want to steal time from his family, but I want to take from him as much as I can. He's a genius in the field, the person he's trying to get to replace him is remarkable younger guy, but he's my age, he doesn't have the life experience that I've found myself looking to my boss for. Fuck cancer. Thanks off my chest. Hug your loved ones. Tell your dog they're good, scratch your cat. Enjoy the moments of extra nice weather.

My understanding is the researcher took Gaia probe information and looked at "wide binary stars" (not sure what defines wide, but there must be a ton of them), within 650 light years of earth. They found the ones that accelerate the least (relative to each other? Rotationally?) are, and this is where I get confused, moving more efficiently around each other than their faster counterparts? This discrepancy is postulated to be due observations of the stars acting in different physics models based how much they're accelerating relative to each other? If this is correct (and the researcher is very transparent with their methods and using public data) would this up-end our models as much as I think it would? There's probably a lot of things interacting with other things at very low relative acceptable throughout the universe. Or is this just highlighting a truth we already knew, that there's a difference between the quantum and relative universes that we're now able to roughly put a scale to? I've added to my questions since lemmy has been down, what in the world does this paragraph mean? "Also, unlike other studies Chae calibrated the occurrence rate of hidden nested inner binaries at a benchmark acceleration." While doing some you tubing about this (thanks lemmy.world down time) I discovered Sabine hossenfelder, who I think is becoming one of my favorite science communicators I recommend anyone wondering about anything science to check her out https://youtube.com/@SabineHossenfelder

Quite a fun game, and the price has never been better, I'm not sure how long it'll be free so grab it while your can. The "endless" universe games, and their spice, have never really caught on with me, but this one was very easy to pick up and play, especially with the heavy+medic+pyro team from the TF2 update. Don't let this one go past you!

I hate to see this community existing without a giveaway going, so the next one is monster sanctuary. This game is one of my favorite melting pots of genres, a platforming, party building, metroidvania, Pokemon style RPG with seasonal ladder competitions. I have a spare key from a humble bundle that is going to be used by one of you! Add yourself to the comment thread below to be entered. Winner selected at random in 34 hours Edit, next game will be posted to this subreddit within 24 hours. Stay tuned!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1850570/DEATH_STRANDING_DIRECTORS_CUT/ I'll roll my lucky d100 tomorrow (11:30 Pacific time) and whoever is closest can have this gem! Please make sure you have a unique number, if two people have the same number and it comes up first person with that number gets it. No editing posts, if you think of something you want to add make it a response to your comment. If I see multiple numbers from one account I'll only accept the first number that account posted. Equal distance tie goes to the lower number. Community creator please reach out if this isn't the way you want it done and I'll start it over fresh using whatever system you choose. Good luck everyone! (If I'm non responsive tomorrow night entries will be cut off and I'll get to it as quickly as possible) Edited to add platform Edit 2. I've set an alarm for 23 hours from now, there's little chance I'm passed out at that time. If all 100 numbers are used I'll post 2 more games of higher current value (thanks steam sale!) tomorrow, with 200 entry limits each. If we don't reach, no worries, I still intend to post them in the future. Last edit for this thread (probably), rolled a damn 100, also rolled 4 more rolls over 50 and a 49. You all owe my dice some good luck. I've got plenty more games to give, be sure to check this sublemmy for future giveaways.

I started watching Dr who when the reboot was 3 seasons in, I think David Tennant was the greatest doctor. A few years later I finally got wife to give it a shot as I started a fresh rewatch in preparation for Matt Smith's second season, she was ok with Eccelston and Tennant but Matt Smith is far and away her favorite doctor. Does this pattern hold true for any other Dr fans?
