Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Actually, the gas giants do have a solid core

    Has it already been confirmed or it's still a hypothesis?

    Please share any material proving it if you have any, I love space.

    From this article

    "All known gas giants, like Jupiter and Saturn, have solid cores. These cores are either rocky or metallic, and aren’t completely solid throughout, with some of the core being comprised of molten metal and rock."

    What defines being on earth? Below the atmosphere? stratosphere? Being in contact with the ground? Being more than 10m up?

    I would say, anything whose spacetime geodesic (orbital/freefall path) intersects the spheroid defined by the surface of the Earth. Though by this definition, a comet on a 100-year collision course is already "on Earth", so I'm not sure if that's reasonable.
