- Comment on see the joke is that someone else does the work 1 week ago:
I suspect I’m using a naive macro model and inaccurate terminology whereas you’re using a micro model and accurate terminology.
Is there even such a thing as magnetic force? Reading up a bit, it only talks about magnetic fields.
- Comment on see the joke is that someone else does the work 1 week ago:
My point is that whether a force does work doesn’t depend on what the force is. It makes no more sense to say that magnetic forces do no work than it does to say that gravitational forces do no work.
- Comment on see the joke is that someone else does the work 1 week ago:
But that’s true of gravitational forces too, otherwise satellites wouldn’t have constant speed. It’s silly and misleading to say that magnetic forces do no work. If I turn an electromagnet on next to a spoon, the spoon will move and the magnetic force did some work.

It’s the magnets, doing work!

No, the generation that killed Nazis is the silent generation. Boomers are their children.

Nobody nose.

Your mom loves you, whether or not you got stuck with your homework.

To be fair, Andrew Wiles solved a problem that had stood unsolved for over 350 years. The best mathematicians in every generation since the mid 1600s could say the same thing as you! Should they not have picked math?
- Comment on Why don't people going to college get HUD, Food Stamps, and free Medicare/Medicaid while enrolled? Instead of the parents footing the bill or the student working 3 jobs and school? 2 weeks ago:
Republicans hate clever people.

What you and your distro get up to in private is no business of mine.
- Comment on Anon experiences freedom 3 weeks ago:
There’s a correlation between people who swallow stupid right wing talking points and people who were unsuccessful educationally. It may be unproductive to take your rhetorical question literally and attempt to provide factual information in response.
- Comment on pew pew 5 weeks ago:
At last an Onion article that makes me smile instead of weep for the state of politics being so bad that complete and utter batshit crazy nonsense is so hard to tell from news these days.

Nice. Hope your friend enjoys his time with the boobs. My friend won’t be drawn on his main account about what he’s into, and has a separate alt on that instance that he won’t tell me the name of.
- Comment on They're coming 1 month ago:
Yeah, yeah, definitely. And my friend thanks you too.

I’m not sure that’s an either / or situation.

There was a post on science memes that pointed out that make giraffes smell the urine of all the female giraffes and if none of them are on heat, have sex with each other instead. I found that the fact stuck with me. The thread got deleted by the mods because it all got a bit daft.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 1 month ago:
Ah, this is fantastic. I learned some stuff, thank you.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 1 month ago:
You’re right, now that I think about it. Laptop power does it more than anything else.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 1 month ago:
Home electricity in North America has roughly half the voltage as elsewhere in the world, and double the voltage is double the arcing potential, so that figures.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 1 month ago:
Maybe, but with the switches on the sockets, I hardly ever unplug anything at all unless I’m moving it. Why would I?
So pretty much every time something’s unplugged, it’s in my hand or away in a cupboard, never lying on the floor.

Thanks for sharing. Hope it was a satisfying one.
