Einstein’s elevator explains why acceleration can mimic gravity. It doesn’t, by itself, explain why a stationary cube would emerge with a large sideways velocity. That conclusion depends on additional assumptions about how moving portals transfer momentum.

It would be A because it’s the orange portal that’s moving, not the cube.

The only way it would be B is if the portals suck since the cube doesn’t have any momentum to begin with. The game clearly shows that this is not how portals work.

It would probably be A because of Newton’s first law of motion.

Hot take:

The Galactic Empire is portrayed as bad mainly due to it’s execution of power. The Empire’s ideals of order and stability don’t actually seem so bad in theory. Even the Mandolorian spin-off show supports this perspective.

Online multiplayer games used to be fub but they have really gone downhill recently.

The most fun I have ever had in a video game was hunting a bear in RDR2 to make clothing with the pelt. It took several days but I think that’s what made finding the bear so satisfying.

There is currently no public breakdown of U.S. data center water consumption by AI vs non-AI workloads. However, AI appears to account for a minority of total data center compute and electricity demand today, suggesting its share of water consumption is also likely to be a minority, though the exact proportion is unknown.

However I can give some examples of cloud services:

AWS / Amazon data centers used roughly 2.5 billion gallons globally in 2025

Google data centers used roughly 7.7 billion gallons globally in 2024

All U.S. data centers: about 17.4 billion gallons per year direct water consumption in 2023, projected to reach 38–73 billion gallons per year by 2028. That includes cloud, AI, enterprise, colocation, storage, etc.

Correct. The U.S. doesn’t top the list per capita, but you’re shifting the goalposts and you know it.

Cry harder. The U.S. has more immigrants crossing their border with the intention to stay permanently per year than any other country in the world.

Exactly. Their employer doesn’t pay them a living wage, and refusing to tip sure as hell won’t fix that. Their employer couldn’t give less of a fuck.

Your mad at the system but taking it out on a server who didn’t do anything to deserve it?

Judging by your reply, it seems like you understand this but don’t care. That just makes you arrogant.

I’m not saying it doesn’t suck. It does.

You wouldn’t walk into someone else’s house and start ignoring their rules and boundaries.

When you’re in someone else’s home, show them respect, otherwise don’t go there.

Didn’t your parents ever teach you manners? I guess not.

Yeah, they get paid like $3 per hour. They need tips to make a living. I get that it’s a shitty system but that’s how it works. These are the things you need to understand before you travel to other countries and show off your ignorance.

People like you are the problem. The U.S. has a different tipping system compared to the rest of the world.

If you aren’t prepared to follow and respect another country’s customs and norms then get the f*** out

Safe travels through whatever dimension that logic came from. Don’t let reality inconvenience you too badly.

That source you screenshotted literally says “not well studied or clearly proven.”

You’re cherry picking information and you know it.

No. Nobody should say that. Just don’t make the mistake of thinking all men are like that. How could you possibly know that all 4.1 billion men on earth are the same when you have only met a tiny fraction of them?

I think it’s hilarious that you said men have lower empathy and then proceeded to demonstrate that you have little empathy.

You seem to have the emotional intelligence of a wet napkin.

There are a lot of sweeping conclusions and self-loathing in your comment, but i’d just like to point out the irony and hypocrisy in what you said.

You said “Men have reduced empathy” while simultaneously advocating visible disgust toward male coworkers and assuming moral guilt by category membership.

Guess what. That’s not empathy either.

A disciplined man is not the same thing as a dangerous man. The internet increasingly struggles to tell the difference.

Because AAA doesn’t just mean “new game”. AAA is about budget, the size of development teams, the time it takes to make, and monetization layers. The AAA industry is struggling because they don’t really make games like they used to.

Democracy in the UK is already kind of dying. At this point the UK government is just doing whatever they want (such as laws which weren’t on the manifesto) and completely ignoring the people when they petition against it.
