ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why can't a liquid move faster than the speed of sound in that medium?2·3 days agoSo, sound is vibration, right? And it’s going to vibrate as fast as it can, at the fastest rate that liquid can move. So it’s not that the rate of movement comes from the speed of sound; if anything, it’s the reverse.

ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•Chicago will no longer require new buildings near transit to include parking.English3·4 days agoWTF, no!. That’s going to increase demand for parking spots, if anything.
ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are you doing when you call someone, don't leave a voicemail or text, they call you back right away but you don't answer?2·7 days agoWhat kind of sociopath has their phone ringer on in 2025?
ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Please settle a debate. A kid in the womb is better off listening to stuff like cat in the hat so it can be read to it at bedtime? Or history of the world during the womb and read it later?0·14 days agoIt’s mostly about the sound of your voice. My eldest got Vonnegut and Law & Order. So much of the latter that both before and after birth the “dun dun” sound from the show noticeably calmed her down.
ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why doesn't the US government just tax illegal immigrants a little bit more than the Average american? Then use those funds to fix infastructure or a new WPA of the 21st century?0·19 days agoIf they’re using fake papers to work, they’re paying income tax (and payroll tax is paid for them as well) but can’t file for a refund or unemployment insurance payments. They pay into Social Security but won’t be able to collect it (though I think anyone under 50 can probably relate to that).
When they buy things, they pay sales tax like anyone else.
They pay their landlady’s property tax if renting and pay it themselves if not.
ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠@slrpnk.netto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Even conservatives use to boast the virtue of achieving higher education. In MAGA times what is the pathway to success?0·20 days agoIf MAHA has their way, the path to success is bootlicking Glorious Leader with pulling up our own bootstraps to stomp on the underclass.
They’re not conservatives. They want to conserve nothing. They seek only to destroy anything in the way of their own power, like all fascists.
It’s about empathy.
