While reading this I had a sudden flash of inspiration in which I saw clearly exactly how gravity works, but then when I started typing I forgot again. It's quite frustrating
Congratulations, here's your PhD
i know what gravity is, but i dont believe in it
Gravity is not what makes your body limp. It would just heavily influence a limp body. PhD my ass.
Gravity is a fundamental force just like electromagnetism (supposedly)
Fundamental means it cannot be explained by being caused by something else.
But then they say gravity is an effect caused by spacetime curvature and electromagnetism is caused by quantum phenomena.
What is the cause for spacetime or quantummechanics? Idk but somehow they don't make it on the list of fundamental forces.
Classical science, for all the good it did and does, is an unironic joke and if aliens knew about it they’d be laughing at us.

I don't think we know enough about quantum mechanics to even make a guess, yet. I do know that the reason we wanted to find the Higgs Boson so much was because we thought it could help explain how things acquire mass, which could lead to figuring out antigravity. But then we found it and it wasn't doing what was originally thought. Or something.

Well, they are not forces.
electromagnetism is caused by quantum phenomena.
Lol what no

Isn’t this half the plot of Interstellar?
gravity is at the very least a vibe
I’d wait got the demonstration.
Lemmy: Hey, remember how reddit used to be so good?
Satan: Yeah! Dang, I miss those days.
Lemmy: I’ve got tons of what you don’t miss about reddit and little of what you do!
Satan: Hooray!
is time even real? smh
Same as any theory, but it's enough to make Christians freak out
eVoLuTiOn is just a ThEoRy!
