  1. Ontologically, in physics, what a thing 'is' is its properties.
  2. Note this is in the Relativity forum.
  3. Space is volume and volume is a property of things. Empty space does not exist as a distinct entity, just like 'length' doesn't. Vacuum energy is the lowest energy state a volume can have ( filled with virtual particles) but it's not zero i.e it is not 'nothing' or empty.
  4. I can picture it hacking with those teeth on my dead body, like a pick axe going "Nom Nom..."
  5. I didn't know they had teeth. I've handled probably millions of them whilst fishing.
  6. A maggot!
  7. Can you show any examples? If you mean stuff that people have made up and are arsey/adamant without evidence when it gets challenged, then yes. That's perfectly reasonable.
  8. I think, as you get older, you have other interests and when you need a fix of music, you stick with the familiar because you know it will give you what you want.
  9. LOL! Too early for me but the stuff I like does evolve from that. More like this:
  10. It's interesting how our tastes fossilize. Although I like a lot of genres, I'm into guitar stuff of the 70's most deeply.
  11. Today I learned that Ordnance Survey maps are named for the Board of Ordnance, who supplied military equipment and defending the realm, needed accurate strategic maps for the army. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-45007577
  12. I was just saying what it looks like to me.
  13. This is true, but if you are angry and flustered, things can cause you to do things in the wrong order.
  14. It doesn't look like that to me because he doesn't seem to take his eye off that lad at any point up to firing. If you pretend to hold a gun as though aiming it, the trigger mechanism/safety is obscured and I would expect to move the gun away to look, thinking there was something wrong. My guess is no better than yours though.
  15. It looks like to me that he takes aim, then thinks differently, evidenced by lifting up the gun up before firing as a warning shot instead
  16. What is the OP asking, apart from lecturing?
  17. Yeah, I googled her. She's my generation.
  18. That reminds me of Lister in ''Red Dwarf" snogging a slimey alien when he thinks he's with some fantasy woman. Having said that, it just goes to show that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and a good job too, or else their would be more spinsters and bachelors than there is just because they don't conform to some fixed standard.
  19. Shame on you, there are some things you should never share. How does one unthink what one has seen?
  20. Frida Kahlo came to my mind. Gotta say, after that, Freddy was gorgeous. I'm speechless otherwise.
  21. It's surprising how many people think this is a special ability.
