I love me some karma.

Why did they even do that?

Not quite. This has been a thing since before the Holocaust, and holocaust victims are actually targets of discrimination in Israel.

Egypt is a strong supporter of the Palestinians

Funniest joke I’ve seen today.

Not would. Remember when the ICC tried to investigate US war crimes in Afghanistan?

And no mention of Israel. Classic.

Stochastic terrorism folks.

Fuck me the USA has turned into Russia,

Always has been. There’s a reason all meaningful Israel-related UN resolutions are 50+ years old.

Oh they’re gonna sanction people. I thought this was a bigger deal, but I guess it’s a nothing-ish burger.

I love this meme.

As an Egyptian, yes.

car makers just jack up their prices so they make more off the subsidy

Exactly.

Really we should be subsidizing EVs from our own manufacturers.

You are. Still not doing much to corporate greed.

It does, but that’s the thing: It does either way. There should be no change due to the conversion of energy to mass.

Correct me if I am wrong, but as I understand it mass and energy is equivalent no?

Yes.

And it also still baffles us as to why rest mass and resultant mass from energy should be equivalent at all?

I don’t know about this one. I’m not an expert so don’t quote he on it, but I don’t remember hearing this before.

No no that’s a completely different phenomenon. This is the phenomenon involved in Hawking’s radiation and similar.

It’s that they’re using a more normal people term. They probably wanted to say vacuum.

So I wonder, even if it’s only appearing very briefly it’s still going to exert some small gravitational effect.

I don’t think so. Remember: This is energy being converted to mass, not mass coming out of nowhere.

Not that I doubt it, but what did the US do to Canada?

Nope, they actually appear and disappear. The idea is that even in vacuum there’s a certain amount of background energy and that energy can randomly turn into matter-antimatter pairs in what is basically the inverse of matter-antimatter annihilation.
