spontaneous life generation is like a quantum mechanic stuff: it can only occurs when nobody is trying to control it, when you put anything on the opening of the damn jar, you are irrevocably spoiling it
Product idea: A wearable that displays your real-time emotional state — just like how cats move their ears or cockatoos raise their crests.
Not necessarily mechanical — could be LED, color-changing fabric, e-ink, or subtle lights.
Would you wear one? 😺🦜 #WearableTech #EmotionalDisplay
I understand the concept of other dimensions in 3 ways: extra spatial dimensions like a 4th, where the beings could see our universe as we see a sheet of paper (Flatland book)
parallel universes similar or not to ours, as in the multiverse movie/comic stories
an hierarchical structure with universes above or below our own, but how this order is manifested I don't know
ancient Egyptians appear to be the remnant of an earlier, *non-industrial* civilization. How did they retain sophisticated knowledge of megalithic granite work, but completely lose alphabetic writing and positional notation in numbers?
@manwblueguitar acho que o mito Pelé está sim sendo esquecido, porque cultura de massa acabou, parece impossível hoje um novo Beatles ou Michael Jackson, não existem mais as condições de monopólios midiáticos
o futebol ainda é um resquício de massa porque não dá para espatifar a Copa
had a dream that theater actors were performing with ancient Greek masks — except instead of comedy and tragedy, they were using troll face, NPC, and soyjak memes.
This is one of my favourite little historical oddities ever.
Medtronic created a nuclear powered pacemaker in the 70s.
Powered by 0.146 grams of plutonium 238, it used the seebeck affect to turn a temperature gradient, driven by plutonium 238s consistent red hot glow, into electricity.
Nuclear powered hearts were a thing
I just watched several interviews with @PalmerLuckey (around 8 hours total). The interviewers were excellent, but I came up with some strong questions about history, science fiction, and other topics that they missed.
