    The Earth is constantly accelerating up at a rate of 32 feet per second squared (or 9.8 meters per second squared). This constant acceleration causes what you think of as gravity.

    HOOO BOY,
    that is so stupid, Hexbear might actually try to convince itself that it is true.

      I almost left Lemmy because of the crap I always had in my feed.

      Then I realized all the bottom of the barrel content and takes were all from the hexbear instance. I started blocking any community from that server. It’s like a whole new world

        We at sh.itjust.works can proudly claim that we out-hexbeared the hexbears. They defederated from us before we did from them.

          I’ve never had or heard of any issues with shit just works users, why did they defederate with you?

              Dw, I don’t need a reminder of how hexbear users are. I grew tired of arguing with them and their bad faith arguments when scrolling through all and blocked all their communities I came across a week or two ago.

              And I’m even very left wing. I’m just anti-authoritarian before I’m left wing. I would rather live in a right wing anti-authoritarian place than a left wing authoritarian one.

              Thanks for the community suggestion, sunscribed.

            They are woke losers that is why, oh what they can call white people “crackers” , “cumskin” , “bleach-demon” and say “we should do mayocide” but can’t handle a yellow bear?

            "Greetings gamers and those who wisely abstain,

            It has become clear to us that even in the short while we’ve federated, the situation with sh.itholefor.nazis is entirely untenable and we will be defederating immediately. Multiple instances of ableist and homophobic slurs directed at our users, overwhelming litigiousness against even the most innocuous comments by our users, and just a general ethos of reactionary behavior. We’re done and out.

            One of the concerns with embracing TC69 thought on site bans with federation is that the user would basically be just hexbear-side hidden and blocked from our comms, free to post reactionary content without the fear of Lenin behind them. That was a silly concern. We will resume our pre-federation policies regarding site bans."

        Same. It’s so much better now; same amount of porn, but way fewer morons.

      After reading that, I’ve felt like I lost many wrinkles from my brain.

      I sure hope a hydrogen atom doesn’t get in our way and destroy the multiverse with the collision.

      I like how they take into account special relativity by saying, that earth will never reach the speed of light because of it. But then they forget, that this will lead to less acceleration as earth gets faster and faster (and heavier and heavier).
