  • No,

    It is purely for dramatic effect.

    In a gravity assist ( to be technical using a hyperbolic orbit of a large mass to change direction and gain velocity) the object is still following the curvature of space time. So the change in direction is affecting all particles in the object at the same time.

    It is the same as people in the ISS orbiting the earth, they do not have to lean in the curve as they are following the curvature in spacetime around the planet. The only difference is one is a hyperbolic orbit (gravity assist) while the other is a parabolic elliptical orbit (ISS)




  • If you want to publish and moderate subs about politics on a public forum.

    Expect people to push back.

    I don’t care about other users, I don’t want this place to become the political cesspit reddit did. Large is not a guarantee of better.

    I would be over joyed if every political sub (especially the US, you guys are fucking insufferable) disappeared from the fediverse.

    The US perz election is more than a year away, for the love of god. Stop.










  • What is astroturfing? My motivation for all of this was to create new liberal and conservative communities to increase activity on Lemmy. If there are any communities you feel passionate about running, let me know and you’re more than welcome to take it over.

    For an account that claims you don’t know what astroturfing is you follow it up with the rest of the comment that just screams astroturfing.
