      I mean physics is insane in general. XKCD had a video the other day that mentioned that if you had enough light/a strong enough laser, space itself stops being transparent because matter suddenly starts materialising out of nothing and blocks the light.

    I used to love Kurzgesagt but I just don’t like their videos anymore, and I’m not sure why. They definitely make the kind of content I enjoy, always did and still do, but when I try to watch any of their videos from the last 3-4 years I just don’t like it. I also get this feeling that they are kinda smug about their popularity and how famous they are, it’s weird.

      They recently repeated establishment disinformation about drugs. Didn’t address the real problem. They pro status quo bias and hide behind science justifications.

      They’re good, but they’re stretching the sauce and don’t get to tge bottom of things that are too controversial even if high probability of being true.

      I feel the same way. I can’t put my finger on it, but I feel something is off and not as good as the older videos. Definitely not because they’re more mainstream now though

        Nope, you’re definitely not a contrarian by nature in real life.

        You’re also immune to Russian apathy propaganda and Lemmy complaints about green washing…

        It’s gotta be because they managed to make money off spreading well researched and sauced scientific videos and something just feels off now…

      Can you get your head around singularities? Because as much as I do understand, I still don’t understand them.

        I’m gonna rephrase that for both of us, I think (hope):
        We understand better what it is we don’t understand about them.
