amio, in Neil deGrasse Tyson knows what he did.

We demonstrate, however, that Brunini under-estimated the energetics by twelve orders of magnitude

Oh snap.

Maybe Uranus did not get hit by a large impactor in the past century, but Brunini’s sure did.

Isn’t it “cheques”

It’s checks in American English.

Mr_Blott,

That’s true.

“God, do they still use those? I haven’t seen a cheque in 20 years”

Cheques out

Aurenkin, (edited )

That checks out, once you check that task off I’ll send your check, just make sure you check it before depositing it.

EDIT: ChatGPT did a better job at this than I did.

In a game of chess, the king was in check, so the player paused to check his phone, where he received a check for his latest freelance project, after which he decided to check off his to-do list and check his coat at the restaurant’s check-in counter.

psud,

It seems to be fair to use the American spelling, as everyone else doesn’t use them.

I think this weirdo is honoured with the only channel I asked YouTube to never recommend me again

No one needs 30 minutes to explain the minutia of how the Vegas sphere web designer took artistic license with how the digits of pi are displayed.

Annoying and smug about it

Euler never did anything important, except wear that dishrag on his head.

RarePossum, in Cummingtonite

So it’s named after a town called Cumington, which in turn is named after a man call John Cuming

Unless you’re Pythagoras. Motherfucker invented the triangle. Shit like that goes a long way.

Pythagoras didn’t invent the triangle, the ancient Egyptians did, by trial and error. Pythagoras made them much more compact and affordable though.

drndramrndra,

Nah, that was Thales. Pythagoras just invented a triangle with a 90° angle.
