I have recently come to the conclusion that there are cognitively functional people with a sound mind that believe that it is not possible to know anything for sure. Like, it’s not possible to know if the scientists are telling the truth. We just have to take their word for it. Why not stick to the thousand year old belief system then? It has better apologists, armed with an experience of hundreds of years of demagogy and dogma regarding fending of criticism of said belief system.
I would count as detection if scientists would say “we detected it”.
Nope. Dark matter or dark energy have not been detected, as of yet.
The universe isn’t obligated to us for anything, but we want to understand it and be able to make predictions. Right now we seem not to be able to do that.
Yes, I completely agree. Dark matter and dark energy are supposed to make up over 90% of the universe, yet we failed to detect them yet? No way! Those are just fill-ins, because our formulas are obviously not working that great on a grander scale.
Also, the only way one can improve themselves is if they acknowledge their failings first. It doesn’t have to be public, but if it is, it means they have already made their first step.
We should ban stick pics on this platform.
Not in this circlejerk they don’t.
Hamas is a red herring that has it’s importance exemplified in western media by the zionist apartheid regime of Israel.
Isn’t America the one that’s two-faced? Defending the fight against a totalitarian regime in one, standing with a zionist apartheid regime in the other conflict?
What are the humanitarian aid measures done by Israel to help the affected civilians in Gaza?
I use Connect and I rarely have to re-login.
Every now and then a post with a question like this pops up on lemmy and I wonder if the Sync company has anything to do with it, because Sync always gets to be the most mentioned answer. It is beyond me why anyone would use an app that pushes ads on you while browsing content from a website that doesn’t have any…
This is the most dangerous effect of religious indoctrination in my opinion - the “can’t wait for the world to end and cause Judgement Day to happen”-mindset. People in power that make decisions that affect millions or even billions of peoples lifes have a hard on for the end of the world. Eventually it can become and probably will become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
