- Comment on Reddit will lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says 2 weeks ago:
Hi!
For Lemmy usage my preferred approach is always sorting by all and blocking communities (and instances) I don’t want to see instead of subscribing to the ones I do want to see. This way you get more content and dont miss new sublemmies! :)

- Comment on Optimisation is a Slow Process 3 months ago:
“It’s either cold enough that I’m gonna die or it’s not. Not sitting on the cold floor isn’t going to save me in a situation where it would matter.”
Until you remember that your body needs energy to heat your body, and needs less energy when you lose less, having more spare every for other things like your immune system.

It does? Look at your arms when you’re cold, you’ll see all your tiny hairs are standing to help prevent the body from losing too much heat.

- Comment on your mom falls significantly faster than g 3 months ago:
Why your spoiler is wrong:
The gravitational force between two objects is G(m1 m2)/r²
G = ~6.67 • 10^-11 Nm²/kg²
m1 = Mass of the earth = ~5.972 • 10^24 kg
m2 = Mass of the second object, I’ll use M to refer to this from now on
r = ~6378 • 10^3 m
Fg = 6.67 • 10^-11^ Nm²/kg² • 5.972 • 10^24^ kg • M / (6378 • 10^3 m)² = ~9.81 • M N/kg = 9.81 • M m kg / s² / kg = 9.81 • M m/s² = g • M
Since this is the acceleration that works between both masses, it already includes the mass of an iron ball having a stronger gravitational field than that of a feather.
So yes, they are, in fact, taking the same time to fall.

- Comment on How is the hydrogen made? 4 months ago:
But you could technically build huge solar panel areas in deserts and bring that hydrogen to populated areas. Or you could use excess energy from renewables to produce hydrogen, storing at least some of the excess energy for times where renewables produce less.
