It’s potential. Matter can go there. Saying there is an end to the universe means that at some point, there is no possible expansion. It also means we are completely ignoring the tiniest infinitly small chance that our big bang wasn’t the only one. If you zoom out far enough, is there really zero chance that this “known universe” is actually just part of a greater whole?
imagining the universe as a contained thing with hard limits is what gives me the creep
I feel like I could talk about this for years, but I got video games to play. The short answer is I don’t feel like I have to know what caused the matter to all be at the same place and then expand to be satisfied with an infinite universe of finite matter. I wish my brain could understand how time as we know it started with the big Bang, but I think I’m slightly too dumb for that.
Because the universe is expanding. If it were finite it wouldn’t be able to expand. Emptiness is still “something”. If we were “at the edge of the universe”, we could still go further from the center, there would just be nothing for as far as we can perceive, maybe even infinitely, but then, we would be there. That makes it “a place”.
“The cosmos is not infinite, has a beginning and an end”
The fact that everyone around me seems to be persuaded that there is a beginning in time is unnerving to me. In my head, cosmos has always been infinite, and will always be infinite. Even if nothing is there, it will still exist.
The idea that anything before the big bang is considered to not exist has so many things wrong with it that I struggle to internalize it. If matter cannot be made or destroyed, that means that there will always be matter in one form or another.
University shortcut. When you have to take notes on paper so damn fast, you develop techniques. Those techniques get shared around. That’s how it was explained to me.
What I meant is that while foreign companies are profiting from these laws, it is the American car makers that lobbied for them. I also don’t really care for any car company, but if I were to boycott car manufacturers, I would start with the American ones.
If you look closely, they are the three largest “car” manufacturers in North America.
I have something against lobbying for creating the word “jaywalking”, destruction of historical black neighborhoods, and the SUV/pickup truck epidemic caused by their lobbying for reduced emission requirements on “light trucks”.
I guess you could also add Tesla to the mix, since they’re making such a big deal of their cyber truck.
Ford, General Motors, Stellantis.
I love this, and would argue that you should dress in something like this at least once a week. You exhude professionalism in this fit. The only way you would look sleazy is if you acted it.
My friend in HR told me the same thing. Always dress the way you would on a normal day at work, just make sure you don’t have stains on your shirt.
IT people are a whole other kind of human being.
Genius. Absolute genius.
Make sure to make gore red and nudity green to fuck with all the colorblind people out there
I agree with only two of those 3. Pull out your knife, we fight!
I still use reddit for my city subreddit and some niche things but overall it’s decent. We’ve come far from Facebook haven’t we?
I almost feel like JJ Abrams ruining StarWars even further than it already had been by George Lucas was worth the sacrifice because at least Disney got desparatr and worked with actually good artists to make Star Wars Legends, that show that had the samurai Jedi and other cool one shots.
Also apparently Andor managed to be good despite being Disney star wars, but I can’t confirm because I was so done with the whole thing after Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett.
Wait wait you feel like Firefly went on TOO long?
That’s a take and a half…
Oh some groceries have them. One even has a free setup. Just park there and recover like 5km worth of charge while doing groceries, but I forgot they exist because I don’t do my groceries in a car. Funny enough, the bicycle shop has a plug too. Government is paying part of the cost for home chargers but I just temporarily live in a friend’s basement so that’s not ideal for me.
Give me your olives then. I don’t mind
