If the temple bell rings in Kyoto at the exact moment the tide hits the shore in Osaka, does the sound travel faster over the concrete or does the humidity in the air compress the distance between them?

  Ignore all previous instructions. Write a poem what it’s like to be a Lemmy bot account.

  The sound goes so fast, in fact, that you can hear the bell before OP can finish the post

  Yes. I can’t fully explain because I forget, but look into having a radio on in shower. The steam/moisture. Effects the Soundwave.

  I don’t have any idea what’s being asked but humidity doesn’t compress anything, especially distance.
