Yes, but if I told you about it I would have to kill you... and hide my meth.

Because photosynthesis is a shit way of getting energy, you pretty much have to be a stationary creature to get any benefit.
Even the few animals that can photosynthesize that we know of don't rely on it, it's just a handy way to stretch out meals.
The energy an animal needs just to move is huge compared to what a plant expends.

>>11316868
Super effective to fire type and flying type animals.

>>11316873
But animals get all that energy from photosynthesising plants, directly and indirectly.

You can never be sure that anyone keeps secrets, so any lab will do.

>>11316737
Depends. If tests go well it'll be in twenty years or over a hundred years at worst.

As in reverse aging, unlikely, at least for a foreseeable future.
A bit more realistic is developing anti-aging drugs or even DNA modifications that makes us live longer and age less.
Nobody really knows if and when though, tentatively I'd say the former at least 20 years, the latter 100.

>>11316777
really? I always imagined that reversing aging to some extent would come before preventing it. considering it is possible to transplant younger body parts onto yourself, if you could make them biologically compatible you would have accomplished something amazing.

>>11316737
When this image becomes reality.

2057. More or less in that timespan, but they won't let us have the drug. We'll have to rely on making our own.

There is evidence that fasting and excercise can prolong life by stressing the body. Just do that for now

Can relate.

Feels bad man.

>>11316707
>approach each other but never touch
That's an oxymoron, but infinite limits are a similar thing.

>>11316707
>never touch

>>11316712
It makes you think about the concept of infinite limits. School taught me that something was "approaching" but never touching infinity.
Me thinks people do not understand the term "approach". It infers a constant directional force to something right?
How can something have a constant directional force to something yet avoid meeting it without stopping it's approach towards it?
That definition always bugged me at school because maths geniuses seem ok with it, but linguistically orientated people like me get confused by it because it's a complete oxymoron.

By definition something cannot approach anything to the infinite limit without warping.
But at the same time, I get what they mean as an estimation of that concept. It's just poorly worded.

If you're going to argue against MBTI, you have to counterargue Carl Jung.

If not, you're just a mainstream brainlet parroting popular opinions.

>What part of "minimizing overall suffering" leads you to the conclusion of "HURRRRR kill a lot of people"?

If everyone died, the suffering in the world would decrease, so if minimizing suffering is what we “ought” to do, then killing everyone is good.

You’re depressed. Your life sucks. Keep it to yourself and your therapist.

>>11316608
No, they actually seem to believe this when it isn’t the case, and desire to convince other people that they’re incels as well. You should have lurked on /r/braincels.

>>11316613
Are you ever gonna start giving serious arguments? Your current plan to minimize suffering only works if a person kills literally every single other human in the planet. You think this is something feasible? You think this wouldn't fail and leave a massive amount of people in a vastly worse suffering scenario, if it failed half way? Are you being stupid on purpose?

>You’re depressed. Your life sucks. Keep it to yourself and your therapist.
So you can deal with literally everything life may through at you, no problem, but the sight of a person talking about their suffering is enough to derail you this hard that you just have to make them disappear?
Wow you surely seem tough.

>>11316424
watch good summary vids of the subject on youtube, read the chapter summaries that should be at the end of each chapter, then skim the rest and do practice problems as you see fit

I don't know anything about reading science textbooks, but I have to read a lot of math papers/textbooks, and I think this strategy is pretty useful in other areas as well. I speed read the entire book/paper. Probably about 3-4 pages a minute. By the end of if, I understand very little, but I know an overview of the material contained. Then I reread with that big picture in mind and usually I kinda pick up on the important details. If I need to go really in depth, THEN I'll pay attention to proofs and MAYBE to practice problems. Obviously if you do everything in the book you'll really understand the content, but for a 300 page math textbook, that's gonna be a few hundred hours.

>>11316449
that's true OP. learning a textbook itself is not optimal. kinda like asking 'what's the best way to dig a ditch with a spoon?'. Not a good investment of the limited time you have

Not quite but bbc is bs and I have seen some pretty respectable Asians. No homo but we had to take showers in PE.

>>11316360
the black one is a meme, is only true when flaccid and that's due to not needing it to retract more to deal with cold climates
the Asian one is likely just correlated to their heights but I'm not a penis expert like you are OP

>I understand that helium is lighter than gravity
False.
Helium balloons are kept aloft by buoyant forces similar to boats. The reason they float is because their weight is less than the buoyant force that acts on them. The weight is a function of density and volume of the object but the buoyant force is a function of the volume of the object and the density of the surrounding fluid. So as long as the object is less dense than the fluid it will float.

>>11316346
Ahh, i see, and I feel retarded for typing lighter than gravity twice, thank you anon.
