i have a friend that used to work at a hotdog stand in antarctica, and he’d let huge containers of the unholy water freeze outside to carve ice sculptures, igloos and such. sometimes, colonies of penguins pass by and he’ll sell hundreds of thousands of hotdogs, then launch little icebergs of all the frozen waste water. does that make all the oceans tainted?

woah that’s so cool, so the expanding steam is making a barrier across the surface of the skin!?!?

if you shot a durian at the sun, how close could it get before burning up?

would it form a tiny atmosphere with microscopic weather patterns and have a comets tail of steam?

currently rewatching the show firefly rn, but after i will start The expanse. ive seen other mentions of it around here on lemmy, and they always avoid revealing spoilers so i will too.

so this is just a general question shooting off of your edit: i wonder what a baby born and grown in higher-than-earth g’s would be like?

i think you have a narrow view of what education is. this is subjective but my view of education is that it’s an emergent property; as long as there’s different individuals that know different skills, natural networks will form of people teaching to anyone that wants to learn.

whether it’s institutions with professors teaching about quantum physics and brain surgery, to herds of dinosaurs teaching groups of young their migration paths and dangers to avoid; it’s all within my personal concept of what education is

nothing is futile, convince other voters that the MP isn’t listening and shouldn’t be your representative anymore. if your mind is set for giving up on government action, then support third party organizations that build ev chargers and teach people how to run and maintain them and stuff. i agree that we need more accountability for elected officials, but to get electoral reform you still need your MP to vote for it. i don’t think it’s good to completely give up on participating as a citizen within a state, though we still need some direct action as a form of direct democracy outside of established structures and systems

how far into the future is this set? is it possible medical science gets advanced enough to surgically implant a robot skeleton that can repair itself and grow with the person? if these belters make a universal healthcare system, they could have free cybernetic surgeries for masses of belters able to withstand surface gravity of planets. should i just watch it, is the expanse a good show?

wait so if data is like dna, does that make computers like plants with their pollen being data packets like memes, articles, and videos… and we’re the pollinators?

cool i learned that the moon is gay and hollow, and that a lunar restaurant would hold a captive customer base

the base needs a greenhouse to grow moon marijuana

i like the part with the mood lights and falling confetti

we need our top food scientists on this pronto
