Silvestru

Haha funny but suspicious in the same time DrP. Or should I call you Dr. Peerless!?!

I read a tasteless joke today https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/oct/12/donald-trump-2020-re-election-economy-courts-trade

This interests me greatly. Thank you.

I hope you found out accidentally as a fun fact and not from officer John while he's writing a ticket haha.

Not exactly a joke or much related to science but I LOL'd

Bless your heart. Haha well that can't be true, there are proven "new Concepts of Work and Energy" and proof that the "law of conservation of energy is the greatest mistake in physics." Jokes aside, there has to be hope and you have to go on and do what you do as this is all we have. We have to make work with what we have.

Hmm yes but I would have to log once every hour, then open the thread to make sure it's in the section I think it is then follow it. I still can't filter by section. I'll just come out and say it clear: It's totally my own problem but I get off-put when I see so many God discussions flaring up in the topics section. The threads are popping up more that science topics. I really hope I am not offending anyone. I do not want to influence the occurrence or anything related to philosophy and religion I am sure some people here are not interested in physics and it could be an eye sore for someone who came here to discuss religion to see all this inflation/expansion/CERN nonsense in the topic section ...

It would be awesome if there would be a filter for each section that you are interested in the Topics section. Or just to see where it was posted maybe without accessing it. Some of you will say that will be self evident from the title but that is not always the case. I am suggesting this as (not to seem philistine) I don't have an interest in all sections on this forum and the ones I am interested in quickly disappear from this section after being bumped down by let's say philosophy and religion topics. Just to be clarify, I am suggesting a simple filter like in excel where I could tick off topics posted in certain sections.

True but on long threads it's hard to keep track of the BS so instead of 5 members writing 5 different messages asking for proof because the OP just requests the forum to disprove him (which very often happens), you could just mark this as burden of proof fallacy and the marker would appear for his post/posts. I just think it would be fun to see that.

This is a bit of a stretch buut. It would be amazing to have Logical Fallacy buttons on each post that would only pop up as a marker if let's say 3 members voted on that fallacy. Many times I recognized straw-man arguments and I often appeal to emotion. It would be awesome and fun to objectively mark posts like that. What do you guys think?

Aaah sorry I'm a bit slow in the morning. Plus I am not as familiar as you with Nazi chants so I had no chance to get it You learn something new every day.

I don't get it (I hope the reply won't be: But your mum sure does.)

I miss having a Billy on this forum

As a matter of fact it did. It made a solid impression to my adulterated state of mind.

Today I learned that it is possible for water to boil and freeze at the same time.

I recommend a short sci-fi story from Isaac Asimov. Really interesting combination of science and bogus. http://multivax.com/last_question.html

Today I learned that the modern jet engine was invented by the Bucharest-born inventor Henri Coanda in 1910.

Today I learned that in 1386 a pig in France was executed by public hanging for the murder of a child. https://www.thevintagenews.com/2016/10/21/medieval-animal-trials-in-europe-a-pig-sentenced-to-death-by-hanging-for-murder/

Today I learned that a bottle nose dolphin's brain is 1.5 to 1.7 kg and is heavier than human's brain 1.3 to 1.5 kg. But we all know which one is the more advanced species:

Unfortunately, me and you are the same species too but we have slightly different genes. If they take my DNA and yours they will be able to tell us apart. Again a dumb example. Drop the absolute truth idea Randolpin. Accept that all the "absolute truths" that we come up with are just meant to make you feel meaningful. "Realize that all your life, all you know, all your love, all your hate, all your memories, all your pain - it was all the same thing. It's all the same dream, a dream that you had inside a locked room, a dream about being a person." (Rustin Cohle)

Actually your idea of a coconut is probably different than mine. As I think about the green fresh very "meaty" cover coconut, you probably think of the small brown, peeled coconut. I do not understand why you keep referring to "absolute truth" like the tablets of Moses. There are no absolute truths, people have changed their perspectives throughout history. It's actually Ironic that in ancient time we believed in an earth centered universe and of course that is not true but as the observer you can consider yourself right in the middle of "your" observable universe, if that makes you feel better.

Today I learned that you only need 39 digits of π to calculate the circumference of the observable universe with a precision of one atom.

Today I learned that people who smile the most in public also cry the most at home.

We would like to apologize for not adding more jokes but we only update them.... periodically

I was also making chemistry jokes but there was no reaction
