Yes. Especially in subs like “Canada” or any post involving Canada in any way

It does not matter what the topic of the thread or conversation is. It can be about how Canada loves puppies. And there will be random 1 or 2 liners from new accounts making political comments heavily pushing specific agendas. Even completely unrelated

Lots of random anti government misinformation and one liners pushing a specific party misinformation and narrative. Our how we’re some 3rd world collapsing country

It is not natural. Same thing occurs also on Reddit.

You did a google search and just pasted the top link? which is a question about calculating the drag on a falling object.

But you clearly didn't read the responses, which the first once directly states that the original question misses the premise that it is drag on an object from the atmosphere which causes the affect of different speed. This is the same arugment you made about terminal velocity. It's the same point. Terminal velocity and the speed slow down of two different objects is still directly related to the atmosphere and it's affect on an object.

Moreover, after terminal velocity is reached, the object no longer accelerates

While this is true, We circle back to the fact Terminal Velocity isn't a measure or an affect of mavity but atmospheric influence on the falling object.

Earth Gravity is consistently pulling on the objects of difference mass at the same velocity. given zero resistances, both would hit the same speed.

No rooted phones for our App. No travel to specific locals and countries either. we hvae black lists of Regions of the world where you simply cannot login to your accounts due to overwhelming security concerns and lack of extrajudicial remediation should there be fraud.

this is such a fun image from the other day of Musk's blatant hypocrisy and how his cult of personality has allowed his minions to ignore reality.

[–] Sprawlie 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

My point was about how he became that rich, compared to other people with similar parents money, if he is a complete idiot.

But you're still wrong. Lots of people who inherited money grew their wealth, without the need to have their face in the media constantly.

the reason we see so much of Musk is because he purposely puts himself in the public. There are more billionaires than just Musk who have grown their wealth without you ever knowing their names. Arguably, there are far FAR more of these no-name billionaires than the Musk type.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/25-richest-billionaires-inherited-fortunes-010158127.html

some examples.

As other's have said, He has used his inheritance to create momentum and a cult of personality around himself, which has helped him make money despite being proven time and time again to be a business idiot.

So Far, He has been removed from Paypal by the board for bad leadership. He was removed from chairman of Tesla for illegal leadership and bad leadership. And all evidence has shown that he has also tanked the value of Twitter.

he has definitely convinced you through his cult of personality that he's some business genius. Rather than just a loud asshole with lots of money to burn.

They actually are. The Moon technically doesn't orbit the earth, but a point near earth, that earth does as well. Its momentum that prevents the moon from crashing to earth, and it's gravity that prevents it from flying off into space.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycenter_(astronomy)

Because the earth is so much more masive than the moon, the Barycenter of the gravity point is not the centre of the earth itself.

And another interesting fact: The moon's momentum is slightly greater than that of the earth's gravity, causing the moon to very very slowly move further away from Earth (About 3.7cm a year).

but it's these momentums and gravitational forces that keep the moon orbiting (Orbital mechanics is fucking fascinating as fuck)

But what would happen if two bodies collided that are large? The force of impact would be the combined momentum of the two items as you believe. It is believed this is what actually formed our moon as early formation of the planets saw two planet sized bodies impact like you describe, the resulting force spun enough matter to form the moon (Mineral inspection of moon rock shows it contains the same isotopes as earth, which is rare if the moon formed on it's own).

pint to remember; A bodies gravitational force is based on it's mass. Larger mass items have more gravitational force. Because fo that, While gravity is 9.85m/s on earth, it would be different on every piece of matter. Even a single atom has it's own gravity force, albeit very low. Your "gravity" force on the moon is not 9.85 but a speed based on it's own mass. This is why you would be "heavier" on earth than say the moon or mars, despite your mass not changing. the planetary body mass affects gravity.

ANOTHER fun fact. Gravity and mass affects time as well. Objects closer to a center of mass operate slower than those further away. Satellites for example actually move faster in time than we do on earth. GPS for example overcame this by programming to check real earth time frequently.

He's been allover the site posting the most inane oppositional comments to verything. Either a bot or paid account.

[–] Sprawlie 1 points 9 months ago

He says what he feels.

We call people like this with zero filter who constantly attack and insult others "Assholes"

Most people don't behave like this. And it's really no excuse for him spewing shit unfiltered. this is a terrible defense.

[–] Sprawlie 2 points 9 months ago

Telling his advertisers that if they don't like that he allows antisemitism and hatred on X, to fuck off, in person in an auditorium is not "human". it's disgusting and evidences that He himself believes in spreading hatred as long as it makes him rich/powerful

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/elon-musk-bob-iger-should-be-fired-immediately

this isn't how you run a business. (unless you're perfectly fine with spreading hatred)

[–] Sprawlie 2 points 9 months ago

that feels like my entire career

[–] Sprawlie 2 points 9 months ago (4 children)

most people born into wealth do not flaunt it like Musk or Trump do. They are the exception not the rule.

they do so because of ego. They NEED the attention. Meanwhile, most billionaires don't go around publicly buying things like that. They do have investments similar, but they do so without appointing themselves as god emperor of the company.

The fact that Musk insists he must be the public face for any company he puts money into evidences extreme narcissism and the belief he is a genius.

Meanwhile. Other than seeing money and being a part time engineer for Space X. He doesn't have any real direct success for actual labour / work he's done. It's his inherited money that seems to have done the bulk of work. Buying in to banking, buying into space x, buying into tesla, buying into X. All essentially ideas by other people who just needed seed money.

His incompetence as a business runner should have been blatantly clear when the SEC had to step into Tesla due to his comments and have him removed from all financial decision making for the company.

https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2018-226

He straight up has no idea how to run a business itself and always acts like he's the full blown god of the companies he claims to run.

Fun story: He didn't found Tesla as he claimed. He bought in and part of the deal was he could claim as a founder. (founded by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning)

Also fun Fact: He only started Space X because he was ousted from PayPal for being a shitty CEO by the board.
