Not just the moon. You can’t just drive here with a 46 billion light year tall lorry without crashing into some stars, galaxies, black holes and what not.
Who reads this anyway? Nobody, that’s…. Oh wait. Some people actually do. I guess I should put something worth reading in here then. Err… Let’s go with lorem impsum for the time being.

I feel like there’s a story behind this picture. Maybe something like having a bit too much vodka the night before, which resulted in someone having the brilliant idea of decapitating a Lenin statue and bringing the head home. Apparently, it didn’t fit through the door, so they had to leave it in the stairway.

Science@beehaw.org•Industrial Chemicals Show Antimicrobial Effects on Gut Bacteria
5·3 天前Industrial chemicals, huh? If there ever was a red flag for inciting fear, this is the one. A promising start with that headline.
On the other hand, I have no doubt that there are various compounds that inhibit microbial growth in the gut. Some of them are used in various industries, and some of them can be found in nature. Think of antibiotics, for example. Regardless, the article does raise some good points about regulation and the use of pesticides and other chemicals.

Privacy@programming.dev•Filen (German storage host) Black Friday Sale includes lifetime offer
2·4 天前That’s why they won’t be doing this again. They are officially retiring the lifetime plan now. In the future, the company will be pivoting towards reoccurring revenue. Lifetime plans are ok when the company is new and expanding. In the long run, that strategy won’t cut it any more, so that’s why they won’t be doing this again.

Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I inflated the tires of my bicycle so its ready for the snow this week
1·5 天前When it comes to cycling in winter, I prefer to stick with the usual pressure. Using studded tires is also recommended, but not completely mandatory.

4·6 天前I suspect OP doesn’t cycle every week, but is planning to very soon. That’s when this kind of maintenance check is particularly useful.
If you do cycle every week, you’ll notice pretty quickly if the tires are in need of some more pressure. In that case, there’s no need to plan ahead. You just go when you need to go. There’s no need to think about the tires every time.

Or set up a seesaw and use the kitchen scale to weigh yourself in one go. With a bit of clever physics, you can prevent the scale from maxing out, and with a little bit of mathematics, you can convert the reading to your actual weight.

2·16 天前The real tip is in the comments.















The mass of the universe is not distributed evenly, so it gets really complex. However, as a semi-qualitative assessment, I can say that the vast majority of the universe is just empty space, so you should be fine for the most part. However, the longer you allow the top of the lorry to scrape the edge of the observable universe, the more likely it is to hit something.
Think of it like throwing darts. The more you throw, the more likely it is for you to hit the bullseye. If you keep on driving your lorry for an hour or two, the top has already swept across an enormous arc and probably plowed through multiple galaxies along the way. Keep on sweeping and eventually you’ll smack into something.
