This is not how general relativity works at all. If your coordinates are set to a spot on Earth (or some spot relative to Earth), you will appear at that same point. Spacetime exhibits something called diffeomorphism covariance which is a fancy way of saying you’d have to go out of your way in the dumbest way possible to get this outcome.

World News@lemmy.ml•China hits Canada with retaliatory tariffs on agricultural products
20·1 year agoYeah, I agree Canada shouldn’t support the US but what does that have to do with China?

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Something that I realized about the fediverse is that you seem to be able to criticize the USA as a whole, but if you criticize the Democrats you get downvoted. Democrats suck they are not sacred cows
51·1 year ago“The reality is that voting Democrat was the correct choice to minimize damage”
“Direct action is the only thing that works.”
Your worldview is incoherent. You don’t even have the self-awareness to see how your own thoughts and opinions are contradictory.

4·1 year agoThe right to vote doesn’t mean anything if the choices are all awful. This last election was literally “Vote for genocide” or “Vote for (maybe) slightly less genocide”.
It seems that liberals will defend any atrocity their leaders commit more than they’ll defend people simply not supporting atrocities.

6·1 year agoYou would have to be lying or a complete idiot to not realize we haven’t had a remotely fair primary in almost 20 years.

World News@lemmy.ml•Trump, Vance Clash With Zelensky During White House Meeting
10·1 year agoMajority of people who voted. That is not the same as the majority of eligible voters nor is it anywhere near same as the majority of Americans.
Also, if it were a Dem Pres, we’d have more or less the same outcome just less crass and with more political theater/obfuscation.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•how do you guys use privacy focused messaging alternatives like Signal or Matrix?
12·1 year agoAnyone who thinks a secure messaging app is all they need to keep their communications private from government snooping is a fool. All of the end-to-end encryption in the world won’t really accomplish anything when there are any number of other ways to read your screen, log keys, etc. The app just encrypts messages, what happens after that on the user’s device is outside of the app’s design.
Never assume any digital device is safe. Never.

World News@lemmy.ml•China Is Bombarding Tech Talent With Job Offers. The West Is Freaking Out.
3·1 year agoDo you mind noting when/where bombs were dropped by the Chinese during the Chinese-Vietnam war, or any of the engagements you’ve listed? I’m having trouble finding any information about that.

US News@lemmygrad.ml•Turns out the Epoch Times was a giant money laundering operation

US News@lemmygrad.ml•The courageous stance of students across the country in defiance of genocide is accompanied by a near total blackout of their voices. Their words are the ones we most need to hear.

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•A Majority of Democratic Voters Believe Israel Is Committing Genocide
3·2 years agoI agree, the Democrats can do literally anything (up to and including supporting genocide) so long as they’re marginally less bad than Republicans and we should support them for this reason. This strategy has no foreseeable consequences and can only make things better in the long run.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Of all movies that you gotta watch more than once to really understand, what is your favorite and why?
2·2 years agoBladeRunner: 2049 gets better and better with every viewing. Even more so if you’ve read Pale Fire, which is referenced a few times in the movie. A masterpiece in every way.
Marginally less bad

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the biggest lesson that employment has taught you?
93·3 years agoIn a vast majority of cases, no one is to get a better role or salary for working harder or caring more. You’re a fool if you think otherwise.
The “company doesn’t care about you” line you’re so quick to mock is specifically referring to how hard you work and contribute. It’s weird that you don’t understand that.
