I recently read somewhere that it’s actually just very few bee species that die after stinging, among them honeybees. They have a barbed stinger that gets stuck while most bees have flat stingers and can sting repeatedly.

If it had a stable orbit before and then slowed down, I thought it’ll get a more elliptical orbit, being both closer and further, or fall into Earth.

My logic was that a stable orbit closer to the center needs higher speeds to counter higher gravity and vice versa.

So if the moon would get hit in a way that makes it slow down and get pushed further away from Earth at the same time, it could keep a roundish orbit, or not?

What’s with that specific timeframe? Is it due to the orbit never being perfect? Or random slight influences from other not too far, heavy objects?

Thanks for the explanation, the moon being a little fast for it’s orbit and therefore slowly spiraling out of Earths gravity makes sense to me now.

I know you’re right, have read it elsewhere before. But I can’t figure out why that would happen. I doubt Earth is loosing mass. Does the moon slow down over time due to impacts or what causes this?

Unfortunately my hardware is too old to play games that are like that.

But I’ve noticed the same with mobile games. My policy is: if that single player game doesn’t start without internet access it gets deleted.

I would go even further and say that the perception of the voters outweighs reality.

Thank you for the detailed explanation!

I see. Yes I watched the debate and he really didn’t do well, like he was on some medicine and partly asleep. My favorite part was when they discussed who is better at golf. Was a very important thing to get clear for people like me, that are worried of climate collapse.

But this isn’t new to Biden, is it? Confusing names and numbers has always been a Biden thing, I think, it’s not necessarily a health decline. Like my favorite American president quote is “America is a nation that can be defined in a single word: ashofootnae ehfoot, excuse me, at the foothills in the Himalaya…”

That’s why I thought the democrats had a meeting after the debate and saw that Biden’s campaign is not going well and the public thinks (doesn’t matter if rightfully or not) Biden is too old and mentally declining. Maybe, in order to save the sinking ship, it’s best to play a rather risky move of changing the nomine just a few months before election. Or maybe he was also peer pressured.

Anyway, if it was Biden’s initiative he does deserve a lot of respect for it!

I’m not from the US. Is it really his choice? I thought it would be more democratic and the party members would vote for who they run, how they run, etc?

It propably grabbed the info off some random number-confusing dude like me, who recently posted the Earth’s diameter would be about 6 km instead of 6000.

Edit: oops, did it again. Meant radius, not diameter…

Ah thanks! So you use thin metal posts. I still use self cut wood like a caveman and whack the shit out of other things.

I actually thought this was a police tool for breaking in doors.

So according to comments it’s a post driver. So far I dug holes and put my poles in. This tool seems practical for soft soil, but what do you do when living somewhere with rocky soil or with dry clay soil?

Edit 2: I think I got it now. Please let me know in case it doesn’t work.

I hope I just had bad experience, but I have the aqua with backlight. About 2 years in, the display got terrible; hardly any contrast, especially in the edges. About 3 years in, the rubber buttons just crumbled away; so no more waterproof.

Can’t read anyways anymore, the contrast by now is like egg white on snow white. Didn’t mistreat, it was always stored dry and in no direct sunlight.
