For everyone who immediately thinks 'it's most likely orbiting a point within the earth,' here's a diagram to help:

Dude, epic. This idea is worthy of a podcast, in the same vein as Magnus Archives or Tanis.

Got any other good evidence to add??

'Ex Deo is a Canadian death metal band formed in Montreal, Quebec in 2008. The band is a side project of Kataklysm frontman Maurizio Iacono, and is based on the history of the Roman Empire.'

I somehow switched to them while listening to Behemoth yesterday. Not exactly my flavour, but they weren't bad.

I think you hit the nail on the head there. Most people must not like learning.

Did you know there is ancient Roman metal too?

I was in the discord for a modding community, people were helpful-ish but for the most part it's 'figure it out for yourself.'

Maybe not nobody but most...

The freedom and control and depth and enjoyment in using Linux. I know, I know, shut up I'm answering the question.

There was a question here recently about partitioning, and that got me thinking about inodes and really wanting to understand how data storage works. I went on a deep dive and learnt so much. I feel like I have a real deep understanding of how my system works now.

People don't understand how wonderful it is to have mastery over things. Most people are just consumers of a thing. I do my own motorbike and car maintenance, and I know where my limits are in terms of skill and equipment. It's so satisfying, it brings a sense of joy and accomplishment to my life.

I'm baffled that people just.. don't do this kind of thing. Don't learn about metabolic pathways or companion planting or do careful research and just impulse buy... Like.. Life must suck for them. It must be so dam boring to live life like that.

So yeah, I don't think many people understand that.

The lost people have no idea what they are missing out on.

I have none that I listened to ironically, I think that's a next generation thing.. but I have plenty that were unavoidably on the radio that I can listen to now with warm nostalgia at the distinct lack of twerking, large asses, and shallow(er) lyrics.

Guys, stop trying to break thermodynamics. You can't. You know this.
