That's a pretty reasonable misunderstanding, I don't speak for anyone but myself but generally as long as there's no malice involved I'm not upset by an accidental misgendering.

I'm on jerboa too and didn't even know there were specific pronouns on accounts, I just chucked mine in my bio.

Devices less sophisticated than smart phones were once pretty common in sci-fi novels, but they still achieved the same sort of thing, all the world's knowledge in the palm of your hand.

You can get smartphones for absurdly cheap these days, and while crappy by modern standards they're still technological marvels.

Hell yeah, I can get behind this. I can't comment on the O-Cedar as I can't get them here and information online is sparse, but the equivalent I get in Australia is made from cellulose and is biodegradable, ~~apparently~~ sadly not including the scourer (after some digging it's coated in polyurethane).

Protip: Don't get the scrub daddy, the O-Cedar Scrunge is the highest rated sponge by virtually every chef and test kitchen for a reason, it's non-scratching but has one of the best scourers ever and will clean stuff up like magic compared to some inferior brands.

If you're an Australian like me, you can get the Vileda Pur Active which is seemingly identical (I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same company).

The gravitational constant is famously hard to measure, so I can get behind this.

I feel like the difference is what you're preparing for, when I think of a prepper I'm thinking of people who are planning for an enormous society ending disaster.

I've also got a bug out bag, but it's just for general emergencies if I need to leave my place in a hurry very unexpectedly.

Good point, time to order some trans pride programming socks

I've also got a degree in physics and I think it's a valid if kinda wonky use of the word study. They studied whether or not GR allowed this specific thing and that's enough to say it's physically possible. It's not just publishing an idea so much as proving the validity of it within current models, to me a study implies investigation of some kind and that's definitely what went on here.

I've definitely heard it used this way before, even if it is less common. I wouldn't say it's an unwritten rule so much just that people have learnt to infer that there's some direct observation going on.

I don't think his personal accomplishments really matter in the face of his support for the far right, crushing hatred of trans people, calling people pedophiles and the absurd amount of misinformation and bigotry that he promotes on xitter.

If SpaceX needs an absolute piece of shit like him in order to succeed, then there shouldn't be a SpaceX.
