Petrolium is made from ancient algae and plants, not dinosaurs.

It's only science if you're willing to accept the conclusion the observations lead you to even if they prove your idea wrong, because the point of science is to learn and gain understanding, and that is done by being wrong about things and investigating to find the correct answer.

It's no longer science if you're not willing to accept the conclusions because they prove your idea false, which ultimately is the problem that happens with science deniers, they are unwilling to accept being wrong.

Good point, though it still won't melt all at once though it takes time to melt and boil (not much time but still takes time).

It won't float away if you freeze it first, of course it will sublimate away but not all at once.

Edit: Melts, doesn't sublimate, still won't melt all at once though.

It does seem nice but I hear the association fees there are insane.

People can make dents in the outer shell of human knowledge without having PhDs though. As in to discover something new and revolutionary, plenty of great scientists have and likely many more will continue to.

Well Rotating a rotor on a generator is the most convenient way to make electricity with parts that last a long amount of time. Also doesn't help that we use AC power while other sources like photovoltaic produce DC power which needs to be converted to be used.

It'll be harder for most people who don't know how to set profile picture using the API or network requests field, since the way the Lemmy Frontend is done it requires Uploads in the Frontend, but doesn't actually require them to set the image (just a URL to the Image, I have mine set to a Codeberg Repo containing the images, allows me to change them whenever I choose, and also guarantees stability since image hosts can be fiddly and also allows Tor users to see them more easily (many image hosts have connection issues under Tor, causing connectivity to be inconsistent).

I've never seen one up close before, it's interesting how much their fins look like feathers, though it shouldn't be that surprising given their purpose.
