What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

NikkiDimes,

Chill bro, he’s got a feeling

NikkiDimes,

The scientific term is bias, the layman term is flawed. When interpreting skepticism from others, many are likely to be biased against the layman 😉

NikkiDimes,

Could you link to the studies saying this?

NikkiDimes,

Yo god damn. That just blew my mind more than anything in this thread…

NikkiDimes,

That’s just capitalism rewarding some lucky shmuck at the right place at the right time, not someone able to solve a problem faster or more intelligently.

NikkiDimes,

Could it be that people are downvoting you because you’re using words wrong while acting like you are educated on the matter? 😉

NikkiDimes,

Riiight…until you smoke the plants haha

NikkiDimes,

Just wanted to pop in here and say: no one is being told they have to go through surgery and hormone replacements to be who they are. In fact, things are changing in the opposite direction. There used to be laws requiring physical surgeries to be able to legally change one’s gender but those have mostly been removed.

The options are there and are becoming more widely available and easier to access for those who want them. They are major life choices that aren’t taken lightly. I can tell you right now, if you weren’t trans then, you wouldn’t be now either. You would be suffering and begging for treatment, not stumbling into it out of mere curiousity.

NikkiDimes,

For everyone else, yes, but for you, no. The faster you go, the more time dilation affects your own experience of time. If you were to travel 1 light year at the speed of light, it would be instantaneous for you, but a year would pass for everyone on Earth.

I’m aware of what metaphysics is. I’m also aware that it’s based in philosophy, not science, as you stated.

NikkiDimes,

How would legalized weed help with carbon capture?

NikkiDimes,

To boil down Kyle Hill as simply debunking conspiracy theories is so sad… He’s a science communicator and makes awesome educational content. Occasionally, he debunks a conspiracy or two.

NikkiDimes,

Thanks!

Highly recommend anyone interested in approachable nuclear science adjacent entertainment or science entertainment in general to check him out.

NikkiDimes,

Why do so many Linux users not understand the meaning of user-friendly?

NikkiDimes,

Linux is more friendly. It requires a certain level of competence that Windows doesn’t, but if you’re above that level it’s generally better.

😂

“He is an adult he knows what he is doing”

Well, one of them is at least. 🤭🤮

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? (gadgettendency.com)

With support ending for Windows 10, the most popular desktop operating system in the world currently, possibly 240 million pcs may be sent to the landfill. This is mostly due to Windows 11’s exorbitant requirements. This will most likely result in many pcs being immediately outdated, and prone to viruses. GNU/Linux may be...

Yeah, well, a piece of paper folded in half 50 times would reach two thirds of the way to the Sun, so take that!!

NikkiDimes,

I’m a millennial… I use some of these words…

NikkiDimes,

I really want to show my friend the original Fullmetal Alchemist series, but Funimation has completely replaced it with the newer Brotherhood series everywhere. It’s such bullshit. I would be happy to pay them to watch it, but literally the only option is piracy.

NikkiDimes,

Looks pretty much the same as a template string in Javascript, an arguably crazier language.

NikkiDimes,

Jesus fucking Christ, how did you not just die on the spot?

NikkiDimes,

Anyone who doesn’t do this is a fucking psychopath in my book

NikkiDimes,

They have my phone number.

To be fair, the vast majority of the time someone is at my door that I’m not expecting, they’re trying to sell me shit I don’t care about. I do not answer my door.
