That’s what I keep trying to hammer home. It is not incompetence that lost the Dems the election. The bourgeoisie chose Trump as the next president. Quit acting like voting is an expression of the people.

The difference in relative acceleration implied by the meme is on the order of tens of yoctometres (10⁻²³ m) per second per second.

It’s a difference so small that it would be overshadowed by the fact that you’re holding one object femtometres (10⁻¹⁵ m) higher or lower than the other in the gravitational field.

Additional sources of error to consider at this scale might be the heat radiation from the surroundings providing radiation pressure on the object, the sloshing of Earth’s core causing time-dependent variations in the gravitational field, the location-dependent variations in the Earth’s gravitational field, and the difference in centrifugal (yes, centrifugal in this reference frame) force due to latitude differences of one micrometre, and also due to natural variations in the rate of Earth’s rotation over time.

I am also aware that they are spelled the same, but I consciously use a U only for the organism.

For what it’s worth, I’m Canadian, so nobody would bat an eye here at using either the American or British spelling of things.

No it’s like 900 years. So the fact that 900 years back, you should have over 100 billion ancestors indicates a lot of inbreeding. And to be clear, not necessarily familial inbreeding (though ofc that too), but just like, being distantly related too.

Yeah, the post says at 32 generations (800 years) there’s more ancestors than base pairs, but at 37 generations, there’s more ancestors than humans that have ever existed.

It is a word swap of a similar thread posted by a liberal on some other lemmy

Nuclear is too expensive to run in the short term. Nuclear plants only start being profitable after like 10 years. But then they’re really fucking profitable. So it makes sense a company could go bankrupt when you’re 10 years in the red.

Also, on the topic of flexibility, this is only true for, like, 70s era nuclear. France has had load-following nuclear for some time now. Does it follow second-to-second variations? No, but it can load follow on the scale of the daily variations in demand.
