Title: I Don’t Care If This Video Gets Banned, But Stop Saving Animals Id**ts
I guess some animal rights activists got offended. Losers.

Am I the only one who thinks this is a mess (ok they’re not going to launch a tungsten rod into space but…)
they drop a 400 pound steel weight (which swings from what they think it’s from light wind rather rather than the helicopter moving)from 50 meters onto a sandcastle which doesn’t entirely break because sand isn’t as strong as steel reinforced concrete and moves instead of breaking the whole structure and then conclude that this is impossible while also mentioning the real problem which is that they would be hard to precisely aim and do not as much damage as explosives sometimes but say that you need 300 orbiting the earth to have one near the target, also why can’t you put them in a semi orbit where the go to space and come back down far away nuke style.

That channel has a lot of other good videos, they make good skits.
This is another one of my favorite from them:

Interesting that we can still see the thumbnail even when the video is deleted

I downloaded the video and the thumbnail on my PC is not the thumbnail online.
I was going to post bad apple in English here but the video disabled playing on other websites, oh well look up “bad apple in English” if you want to realize it’s supposed to be sad not just random apples morphing into people.

Yeh ik it’s sad it’s just also 1 bit color so it can be played on everything from Minecraft to the desmos graphing calculator

I wonder why isn’t there any fish species that is shaped like this stick. They could have swam up a river without spending any energy.
During the cambrian explosion, every species evolved exoskeleton. Even the jellyfish had spikes to fend off predators.

“We often view niches as individual pieces which exist on a board puzzle. But in reality, they aren’t so discrete.”
When a species evolves to fill a new niche, it can only conquer a niche that was similar to the previous one it filled. And animal groups tend to get specialized to niche groups over time. In the future, we probably won’t see marine reptiles again or a large marine bird. Any marine mammal that goes extinct would be replaced by another marine mammal. Which is to say, evolution tends to get more boring over time and the players would want to progress to awakening stage.

Sorry, but that video of the stick moving upstream is most likely fake. But now I have seen the first physics forum post that cites YouTube shorts as a source lol.

They don’t say in the comments that it is fake.
darriusking2438 commented that “It doesn’t defy physics, it fully embraces it.” So I thought it was a well known phenomena. There wasn’t any speculation into the details for how it works, so I should have gotten suspicious. About 50% of the comments I make get shadowbanned, and 90% of the long ones. So I should’ve never thought the comments were a representetive sample. Youtube is incentivised to censor any hype killer that would prevent the video from being shared and watched even more. And also any time you spend engaging on the comments is a time you’re not watching videos and not seeing ads. The more brainless a comment you make, the more it is likely to be placed above other comments. Probably. In the physics stack exchange, the user ganv commented “if the stick is moving with the fluid, there is no relative motion of the stick to the fluid and therefore no way for it to extract energy from the flow and begin to move through the fluid” which makes total sense. The stick doesn’t have any information about how fast the water is moving on the ground. Or if the river is flowing at all. So since it would be stationary in a stationary water, it should also be stationary when the water is moving. With respect to water. It wouldn’t work in any galileian world.
Get ready! Intel might get bought.

Honestly, I’d prefer if intel became the AMD (of GPUs) of CPUs, really underpriced, owning weird markets (AMDs APUs win even in game consoles just cause Nvidia’s CPUs are laughable), and doing nice things like dropping the high end or sticking with AM4 for ages (I’m rocking an outdated am4 PC, it’s quite convenient knowing I’ll have support for a bit, I probably won’t upgrade til AM6), and failing on AI. It’s obviously unlikely, but hell Qualcomm making x86 cpus would be wild, and that might lead to, for example, nvidia getting an x86 license and market fragmentation, or a cheap af selloff of battlemage gpus or whichever. Either way it’d be very interesting, even if my nonsense is silly speculation.
