    One persons theory does not change much. Need a LOT of science and proof to back it up. But it’s also not a bad thing we don’t fully understand gravity.

    edit- reading through the article sure seems like an explanation of what dark matter could be- given it’s a theoretical particle that has both positive negative mass as the same time. As far as I know, there isn’t any negative mass stuff- even antimatter has mass. So to propose something that cant be proven to displace a different explanation that’s hasn’t been proven, well, yea.

        Nate Silver on Sean Carroll's podcast on risk and rationality. Pretty good job by both. Certainly a healthy antidote to the reflexive anti-Silver derp.

                  I know that individual weather patterns/incidences are not the climate, but it’s end of October and I just killed a mosquito buzzing around my home office room. I have never seen a mosquito this late into the year before now. Combined with all else going on, things are different.

                    I know there are some other engineers on this board, and suspect there are also mathematicians and physicists. But others who do other science- this should make you really think... Least Action.

                        I kinda feel like this is impressive enough for an Ignoble Prize.

                        “You would stand on the toilet actually to be able to talk to them,” she told the broadcaster on the phone.

                        As the couple was talking through the vents, their relationship progressed to sharing pictures and notes with each other.

                        “Being in isolation for so long you begin to spend hours and hours talking to this person, you know, to the point where it’s almost as if you’re in the same room with them,” she said.

                        Their relationship subsequently moved to talking about how they can make it possible for Link to fall pregnant and that’s when Depaz came up with a plan.

                        They created a line using bedding material which they used to transport the package.

                        “I told her a way that one of my friends had shown me through the vent. Because the vent is like a L-shape, really. It drops right into my vent, from her room, she could throw a pen into the vent and it’ll land right into my vent.

                        “I put the semen in Saran Wrap [plastic] every day like five times a day for like a month straight,” Depaz told the TV station.

                        Explaining the packaging, Link said it was rolled up almost like a cigarette and Depaz would attach it to the line that they had in the vent and she would pull it through.

                        “From there, I had placed it inside of, you know, the yeast infection applicators, I had placed it inside of there and then from there, yeah, I administered it,” she said.

                        She said it only took a few tries before she became pregnant.

                        “I can’t believe it worked. I think everything happened for a reason,” Link was quoted saying.

                        She gave birth to their daughter in June 2024.

                        The TV station said the baby now lives with Depaz’s mother, who became a grandmother for the first time.

                        Link and Depaz, who are now in different jail cells, still talk on the phone and see their daughter on video calls.

                        “She could be anything. I think that she’s going to be something great,” Link told the broadcaster.
                        Narrator: She did not become something great.

                              Apparently the idea itself is not nonsense and a sh-t ton of money has been invested in it by real countries and companies.

                              I assume the Russian one is just Dump's bleach.
