Oh nyoo, the toaster is learning!!

Bright lights is when regulation doesn’t work.

It’s for a parking lot, isn’t it?

It’s only a joke until somebody tries & succeeds bcs Linux will run on anything.

After that it will still be funny, just not a joke anymore.

Yes, I agree - but in that case they would perhaps note a slow spin (still “the same explanation”).

That’s just semantics tho, we are saying the same thing.
A bit like saying ‘we only have one method of travel from point A to B’ and additionally nothing not to use that one method to travel in the opposite direction of B (bcs then it’s no longer from A to B). That is absolutely correct & a relevant note to be precise (and absolutely more relevant than the title with the “shouldn’t exist”).

Also, I’m not sure, but it might be exceptionally rare for the two to orbit each other with opposite spins.

Yes, the size & the spin is explained by them merging before (an explanation so obvious that ofc it didn’t take an eureka moment from the scientists), there is no other explanation really (except them theoretically being like from the ultra young space just after the big gang bang - but the location pretty much affirms this isn’t the case even if those existed).

The spin isn’t an additional mystery, it’s the same one, just two different measurements the system is designed to estimate.

Thanks, as the layest of lay persons that sounds confident boosty :D.

The “shouldn’t exist” meant directly through star formation:

“Black holes this massive are forbidden through standard stellar evolution models.”

And ofc the obv explanation:

“One possibility is that the two black holes in this binary formed through earlier mergers of smaller black holes." Hannam said.

(Yes, I am the ‘get off my lawn’ of clickbait science articles.)

It’s worth knowing the context that we only have a few hundred black hole merges detected (which are the only practical detections methods of non-supermassive black hole available to us), so there just isn’t enough data for any statistics yet. Scientists are saying here ‘whoa, this is the biggest merger yet detected’.

I don’t disagree (and I didn’t write anything disagreeing with that).

What I added was that we still on average admire nations build on genocide or immoral individuals just because of their wealth and status achieved (& how long lasting & persistent it is).

I never said that a bunch of us don’t disagree with genociding anyone. There are always voices like this through the history.

(Tho on that note, not that it’s relevant, about the person you replied to - I don’t like when ppl use the word ‘genocide’ for a political party/military group & not something broader, like ethnicity.)

You can tell which ones is ok to genocide if you wait a few decades to see what the winning side wrote into the history books.

/s
(The “is ok” is sarcasm, the rest is just a fact of humanity tho, we seem to praise ancient as well as recent genocidal spoils victors.)

Whoa, I would have never guessed bigfoot onlyfans was so unpopular - at last it’s a steady following.

(But it makes sense competing with giant tentacles.)

Lol, so you saying that my N900 now lives in my TV?? :‘’(

I miss you, my beloved N900, and I still talk about you to people.

N900 was by far my best phone.

I’ve had a lot of Symbian phones too, most memorable was the second, the 3650!

Yes, true, I looked for a better one but gave up :( (mid meeting at the office).

But overall productivity isn’t actually an issue, wealth concentration is, saying more work-hours are needed is such a shitty approach (well, there are much shittier ones too, def!).

That’s is just 10 days (two weeks) more than the mandatory minimum for new eyployees, it’s above average, but it’s what you get in most EU countries with some 10~20 years of work & a few kids.

(The orange part is just the starting minimum.)

Hmm, I’ve seen that tramp stamp before.

I’m glad she is getting honoured this way.

Ok, so pictured is Phyllis Dare (1890-1975).

So she had her cervix photographed by perhaps one of these?
