Political humour by its subject matter is about ridiculing groups or individuals for their thinking and behaviour in some way... depending on which side one sits on. If one is going to engage in it, be fair to everyone and piss-take them too... 'equality', see. Everyone has their 'taboo' subjects' and 8 Billion variations is too many to accommodate, so if you want to do it, do everyone. If people are offended by mistermack's post, I nuked the neg, then maybe they best stat away from political jokes because attacks their collective behaviour and not their being,which would be personal. Attack the behviour, not the person.

Yes, one is lucky when one doesn't have to travel for half a day to get the family's water. The contrast is gross.

It might be an age thing. There is alot more methods for faking things now, rendering greater scepticism about less tangible things, like the Apollo landings if you weren't around then,

Pi'd.

It comes from a sub'domain of the main domain.

All in all, GR is pretty intrinsically accurate then.

Not surprising. Looks like the world's going to cave on him anyway. There's some real crap in the GOP atm.

I think the context was clear. One cannot universally assert what other people experience or don't. Your incredulity is not sufficient evidence to justify your position. Also, why must it be a 'condition' when it's just a different neural architecture in reality. The absence of said function may lead to other constructive abilities to evolve through necessity. Neuroplasticity is a thing

I'm fluid with text as well, but I'm severely deaf. My mind's eye is critical to me as I mostly read peoples mouths and expressions, demeanour, then imagine what all that means and their intent. Visualisation is function of certain interdependent aspects of our brain acting in concert, so if any of that isn't working properly, it is sensible that related abilities will be affected or absent.

I'll think about it later. Need sleep... it's silly o clock!

Right, cheers. If it was us in a reversed situation i.e. if the US or UK in solation acted like China, what do you think our experts would advise to renormalize our associations with the rest of the world, given there aren't the same ideological/political constraints present?

Right. Is it relatively safer now to expose the population compared to last year, given Omicron seems to be losing virulence with its increasing infectivity?

Their vaccines or the West's?

Do you think they've made the right decision? Is there any other way they could have done it, apart from more gradually? It looks we are going into a new episode seeing China trying to renormalize its activities. I'm wondering about this on social, political and epidemiological levels.

Right. Got you. Thank you. That's the way theorists are trying to quantize it by applying cutoffs on the curve?

That's outside my pay grade but thanks for trying.

Does normalize mean translate into other terms that we have a handle on? What is divergence?

Yeah, but GR waves diminish infinitesimally and graviton density diminishes in the same way with a cutoff. That's what I was thinking. Do any of the subatomic forces have a discrete range of influence?

Thanks. I know QM is work in progress. My thinking was that if the emitted gravitons, being discrete, follow the inverse square law as in EM waves, then there might be a point where they get out of range of influence with each other and the gravitational field strength falls off sharply. In a sense, gravitational influence being proportional to the collective graviton density in a given space. Gravity emerges from that interaction between them until they are mutually out of range.

I knew I shouldn't have asked that question... I'll take it as a "No" then.

From the horses mouth on the future in the House: "Gaetz boasted Thursday night that even if McCarthy managed to win, “he will have to live the entirety of his speakership in a straitjacket constructed by these rules that we’re working on now.” McCarthy has just ordered himself a shit sandwich with sides. What the caucus have given McCarthy is akin to giving a thirsty dying man saltwater.

It's hard to argue with its message.
