  Yep, Lemmy is a pretty neat place!

  Here is what the underside of that particular plate looks like. The metal heats up faster than the concrete as the temperature rises, so the parts with thicker metal melt faster.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you go about evaluating sources of information for truth/credibility/etc.?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There are different standards in different fields of knowledge. Medical science is different than journalism, which is different from history, which is different from public safety.

  In general, a given field has sources that publish information with the highest standard of credibility. In many fields, these are peer-reviewed journals. They may be published by large universities (Harvard Law Review, Oxford Review of Economic Policy), by government bodies (e.g. Smithsonian Magazine, NIHR), by professional organizations (eg. JAMA, Annals of Internal Medicine), or operate independently (e.g. The Lancet, Nature).

  I can confirm the suspicion of strangers handing you something. We don’t trust something for nothing.

  There are entire YouTube channels about walking up to Americans and trying to give them a $100 bill. Most won’t take it.

  … is the premise of the very worst John Wick spinoff.

  Black and white film remained popular for decades after color film because it had different properties and could be easier to work with. Some photographers also preferred the aesthetic. Before digital photography became as good as film, B&W continued to be used in professional photography.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mine was the fact that Anne Frank and Martin Luther King Jr were both born in 1929 😭⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That also means, if Anne Frank and MLK, were alive today, they would only be in their 90s.

  The sad truth is that this is exactly the answer. Rich people have more power by virtue of being rich.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨George Washington scoping out the battle lines pre-revolutionary war. Circa ~1775⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Keen observers will notice the obvious anachronism in this photo. Of course, I’m referring to none other than the notched lapel of the general’s outer jacket. Although he certainly was well known for his double breasted suits, the president could not possibly have worn a notch lapel jacket, which we’re not popularized until over 100 years later in the 1880s. Truly preposterous and whimsical.

  I don’t see any indication that this is limited to the Euclidean plane either

  Clearly this is depicting one of those super rare eclpses where a much larger faster object trsverses the plane halfway through, then the remaining eclipse continues.
