In principle, no.

Wrong, rather. It would appear red-shifted, length-compressed and time-dilated, but none of that means its apparent movement stops for the observer. It will continue to appear moving at an accelerating speed (without ever reaching the speed of light).

I'm just an amateur student, but I'm pretty confident that's how this whole General Relativity thing works.

Hmm you don't need to cure avocados to make them edible.

Not that uncured olives are toxic, they're just bitter beyond anyone's ability to eat them.

LOL, when they decide to do that, it will be to temporarily avoid the collapse of the banking leg of the Corporatist State, not because of any social concern. They don't work for "society".

Isn't that the "I" in BRICS? Oh well.

Ideally, they should have let them secede. Slavery was in its last throes anyway. Yes, it would have lasted longer and hundreds of thousands would have remained enslaved. But hundreds of thousands died, more were disabled, and a greater evil in the form of an ever centralizing and geographically larger State was born as a result. Which happened to classify black people as inferior for a full century after that anyway.

In my 5 million something inhabitant Western European metropolitan area, Nostr basically destroys mobile data, and trying to open any Nostr client without full 5G coverage is futile.

Actually I think this particular case of traffic cone exhuberance, to call it something, is perfectly aligned with the political culture. The Nanny State is an ideological system. Citizens are irresponsible permanent minors who can't handle their own most basic life affairs. So they need [insert any "safety measure" forcibly supplied by the State] every inch of their way from their own home to the supermarket.

I'm a bit lost here. Initially it seemed he was against letting 16 year olds vote, but then he makes this direct reference to Boomers.

Volume has been absolutely pathetic for the last 14-15 months. It's the one factor that makes me iffy. On the other hand, it gives me peace of mind whenever I'm unable to stack due to lack of money, because I know price isn't going anywhere significant until the volume is back.

So this morning I've been whittling a little wooden piece with my Mora carving knife, and at one point I'm like "WTF is this white piece of stuff stuck on my blade?"

One for y'all carnivore diet folk, by its most public apologist Jordan Peterson. Not endorsing it at all. I haven't even watched it fully yet. But I'm all for the debate and as I've said many times, as much as the carnivorist world is full of grifters and loons, I also think there are ideas within it that simply sound true and I have personally experienced as working.

Of course it's doing something. Something really important, at that.

It's causing the scarcity that makes bitcoin valuable. BTC being liquid doesn't mean it's not a good store of wealth.

On the contrary, it's one of the ways it's superior to real estate or gold.
