  If the five nucleotides are so abundant in space, this may indicate that life could easily also form in other locations. But would we then really need meteorites to seed the world? After all, if they are so abundant, they would be abundant on earth too…?

  You never know. 3-4C of temperature increase may offer some surprises.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is likely to happen when/if trump dies?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Vance would become president and at the next election in three years, people would vote again. Vance is an opportunist, he would probably continue trumps policies, tweak them here, cancel some there and try to get reelected; perhaps without daily tweets and erratic behavior… with could similarly dangerous.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has the scientific community ever reconciled with the fact global warming is going to happen and there is no stopping it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, scientists have reconciled with this. In fact, climate change is now an outdated term; it is called climate collapse, and scientists (across many disciplines), most (rational, non-populist) politicians and citizens acknowledge that the dramatic effects are omnipresent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has the scientific community ever reconciled with the fact global warming is going to happen and there is no stopping it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That ALL life will go extinct is hard to imagine, but many scientists do see a high chance that humanity is going extinct (due to climate collapse) or, at the very least a population collapse of >95% is certain to happen within 200 years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As a Chinese American, if I wanna travel internationally, is it better to just say I'm American, or pretend to be a Chinese National (to hide from Anti-American sentinments)?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I find questions like these more and more upsetting. I’ve posted several articles on Lemmy and other platforms that show how the USA is rapidly sliding into a fascist state, the breakdown of democracy is horrifying, and also directly affects the wellbeing and security of the countries US Americans are visiting as tourists. And all the US tourists that come over here say: well, I didn’t vote Trump (which nobody can check, can we? We just have to believe it). We all know USAmericans are not particularly blessed with vacation days, but wouldn’t they be BETTER spent in creating political initiatives in the USA? By God, man, you may be lucky you can actually re-enter the USA when you come back, and if the midterms go topsy-turvy (and rest assured that Trump will do anything to make them come out in his favor), you may well be seeking asylum in Europe or Australia in 2 years time! So, instead of thinking about what kind of silly hat to wear abroad, stay home and do something, a little thing against racism (end of rant).

  Politics is always a compromise, also for a voter. People forget that; they start thinking black&white, in good and evil, and then start to make mistakes - and the more extreme politicians win. The second aspect: instead of complaining about politicians, become politically active, join the party that you like most, and focus again on compromising, within your party and with the other side.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that Politico is a subsidiary of Axel Springer, a right-wing propaganda house⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, I can’t say I support or like Axel Springer, as it is definitely conservative, but they are definitely pro-democracy. I wouldn’t say they are populist, or right-wing, eg I don’t see them supporting the AfD. Always consider that US “liberals or democrats” are much more to the right compared to similar parties in the EU: Bill Clinton can easily be considered a conservative in most European countries.
