Agreed.

And the causes are probably broadly similar; lack of education about how to cook, lack of time to cook, lack of education on healthy food, too much food advertising, ultra-processed foods are too common, healthy foods are expensive…

No, but your weird obsession with ridiculously unhealthy food is somewhat interesting.

So the answer is to not visit the US then.

If you liked The Expanse, check out For All Mankind.

It feels almost like a prequel, set a couple of hundred years before the events in the series.

Hell, the villains have more character development than protagonists in other shows.

Also Uncle Iroh, it possibly the greatest male role model in TV.

When playing games with the kids, we start at 0 being the position you are currently in, then count from there.

e.g. in snakes and ladders, if you are on spot 30 and roll a 5, tap spot 30 and say “zero”, then spot 31 is “one” etc… till you are at spot 35 saying “five”.

Teaches the kids about zero and avoids miss counts from the younger ones counting their current position as “one”

You are applying too much classical thinking.

Something in superposition isn’t in some unknowable but definite position before measurement.

It is all possible states, at the same time.

Einstein famously did not like the implications of QM, saying “god does not play dice with the universe”, though his work on the photo electric effect helped pave the way for QM.

No worries, I don’t expect many people have an understanding of what superposition actually means.

The Lemmy crowd probably skews towards those that are likely to understand it, but you never know.

This is just a misunderstanding of superposition.

A superposition is being in all possible states before “collapsing” into a defined state, after interacting with something (a measuring device).

So Schrodinger’s immigrant will be in all possible states; they are obviously lazy welfare bums; whilst simultaneously taking all the jobs; and being so poor that they eat your pets; and having the time to organize groups to go raping; whilst also being trustworthy enough to be a housekeeper or nanny

Look at this guy, blithely inviting a holy war to his doorstep.

I’m not so sure about that…have you seen some of the people on the internet.

Looks like a kiwi

I fixed this, tell the grandmother, I’ll only send the pictures etc via signal.

Set it up for her, put it on the home screen.

It depends on what you are looking for.

Look at the classics, some can be a bit heavy. But there is generally a reason they are considered classic stories.

To be fair, you never forget your first. Amiga workbench for the A500 was some of the best computing…

If cosmic inflation is correct, probably not. Inflation is our best theory of the beginning of the universe.

According to inflation, spacetime expanded exponentially from an infinitesimal point to many billions of light-years across. As far as we can tell, the universe is expanding again but at a much slower rate, due to dark energy.

Spacetime survived the inflationary period, so it looks like it doesn’t have a “tear” mechanism.

Another way to think of it, is to assume once torn, what is it tearing “into”. If you rip a bit of fabric, you look through to the other side, nothing special. If you tear our 4-dimentional spacetime, what are you looking at when you look “through” the ripped portion? This implies that out 4D spacetime is somehow existing in a higher dimensional reality.

+1 for great use of “conniption”
