Am I the only one who thinks this galaxy looks like a but hole on chill night?

@abloo They would have a stroke if a woman showed off their ankles too :)

They found that for weak oscillations, there was a sharp switch between in phase and antiphase control at the system’s resonant frequency – something that they said can be fully understood using linear systems control theory. For stronger oscillations, the duo discovered a transition region, rich in behaviour, where the motions of the cart and pendulum are not synchronized.

@jeffcliff That is rather strange, its a well known site and doesnt go down often. It is up for me. Might be a problem on your end.

@jeffcliff Huh, the link I sent wasnt to the coastline paradox (though it does link to that paradox as well)

@jeffcliff

This already exists.

What you are calling "Manhattan distance" is more formally called "Taxicab geometry" and the paradox you are describing is called the "Staircase paradox". It is also sometimes called the "Diagonal paradox"

@freemo I've actually though the same since I was a kid because too many of them dismissed my symptoms which I had googled and found the cause but couldn't confirm until I was old enough to pay for tests they wouldn't give me because "google didn't go to medical school".

@johnabs

i try to stick to my rules, when debating and point out logic fallacys if i spot one.

this give more structure to the debate and helps me stay sane, i guess xD

@freemo

@freemo Tell me about it. I hate getting in discussions with people who don't understand logic well. It's necessary to try to make society a more reasonable place , but arguing with people who reason backwards (from conclusion first) or from emotion is incredibly frustrating.

@1iceloops123 Like I said, its cool in the sense that it covers every tech for wifi you can imagine, easily has 4x the features of openwrt last I used it

@1iceloops123 I have used openwrt, whatever they have is way more advanced, down to the hardware level too. It can do literally everything.
