Is there anyone who knows more about geology who can explain why these rocks are all spheres? Or are they carved on site?

Well, that's certainly a way to react to someone disagreeing with the content of a post. Which is your prerogative as mod, but it's certainly not reflected in your sidebar.

How would you constructively discuss the fact that the whole video is about a facet of a travel from a place where people never were, along a path they didn't take, doing things that didn't happen? How about this example?

What DID Alexander eat during his travels to Australia? I propose it was mostly tuna, because it's the chicken of the sea, and there are many records of Alexander dining on birds in the Persian tradition during his time there, but some say it was sardines and mackerel, because they reminded him of his homeland.

I can make the point sound friendlier and more faux-educated, but in the end, there's no basis for any of it. Both my points about Alexander are historically correct, and all of those fish exist and could be eaten while traveling to Australia. Discussing the migration patterns of tuna and their capacity to feed his whole fleet via mediterranean fishing techniques neither supports or disproves Alexander eating either tuna or mackerel while sailing to Australia. Because that never happened. There is no answer, because it's not a thing that occured.

I don't understand the part where someone goes looking for a real world explanation for a facet of a myth, because there can never be an answer. I'm sorry if this statement offends you in some way, but if you'd rather not have people react to posts, making a public community is kind of a weird move.

Only with worse vision, worse reflexes and probably worse pay

Well, that rather makes the question as moot as "what did Alexander eat on his way to Australia". It didn't happen, it's like talking about what lembas bread really is.

Yeah, that definitely sounds like a real conversation.

I'm sure the studio will launch by next year, like every Musk product.

Why would you conclude I didn't watch it? Not only did I watch it, I also looked around a bit myself and noticed that almost every point it made is also on wikipedia.

However after watching the video, the exodus isn't suddenly real.

That's like asking what Alexander the Great ate when he sailed to Australia.

Oh? But I thought the KAAN was superior in every way to the F35, and not at all a desperate lie they came up with to sell the worst plane outside of Russia

4.8b LOAN, not a gift. There's a bit of a difference.

It is a waste, good loves the smell of a burnt offering more, and they chucked him down a hole instead

I love this! This concept makes for an awesome party game too

We're all drinking dinosaur pee down here

The investment banker getting paid 200k per year in NYC is still closer to being homeless, than being a millionaire.

They are a millionaire though. It's just that that means nothing anymore.

A million bucks is a million away from zero, but it's 999 million away from a billion.

I guess they also already know the answer

Ah yes, the government who promised to give 100k of debt for every new recruit. Not government debt, mind you, third party debt. As in, you owe me 90k, and sign up for the military, and that debt is gone now, and I can go fuck myself..

That government can surely be trusted to repay their own bonds, right?

There's a video going around, shot on a phone of one russian waving their arms, trying to get a military car to stop, because there are mines on the road. The car then hits the person waving their arms, and then (presumably) the mine as the cameraman shouts and the video is very suddenly cut off.

For those doing the maths at home:

An F35 who obligingly flies top-towards-you (not exactly something you can do, but hey, maybe they're turning) is all of 10m tall.

An AIM-120C can very comfortably hit a target at 100km.

At that range, the F-35 takes up 26 arcseconds, or 0.007 degrees. That's roughly about the size of this period, at a distance of 3 meters away.

Good luck spotting that in a sky of roughly the same colour, full of other objects.
