நீங்க சொல்றது உண்மை தான் நண்பா, அடுத்த வாரம் இன்னொரு நியூஸ் வரும் அதுக்கு RT, இல்ல பூஸ்ட் பண்ணிட்டு இருப்போம் நம்ப.

@raining_night Mindhunter is kinda slow but need a lot of patience. The pay off is great.
David Fincher's direction is a bounce.
And I honestly lost interest in TWD :(

@raining_night Haunting of hill house, Glitch, Dark, Marianne, The Devil next door, Mind hunter, The Walking dead and Santa Clarita diet :)

The all india topper was forced to commit suicide due to caste-based and islamophobic harassment from the IIT teachers. We should call it as a murder.

மதம் மற்றும் சாதியின் பெயரால் எத்தனை உயிர்கள் பரிகொடுக்க போகிறோமோ??
சென்னை IIT யில் ஆசிரியர்களே மதத்தின் பெயரால் உயிர்களை பறித்த அவலம்.. இதை தற்கொலை என்று கூறுவது தவறு.

@mngrif Yes, I read that. Tabetha herself said
"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and it is my job, my responsibility, as an astronomer to remind people that alien hypotheses should always be a last resort" and I agree.
But SETI stated that Tabby star is situated at the right distance from habitable zone (seti.org/whats-tabbys-star)
So I won't be sceptic yet partly because its exciting. Possibilites are only limited to everything that we haven't thought of yet.

"The world is not ready for this yet" quote is inoperative if we 'mentally' prepare ourselves for what lies ahead :'


(A follow up of my previous post)
How cool it is when a sci-fi novel's prediction comes true? (Or almost true)
One such example is a 'DYSON SPHERE' , it is an hypothetical structure that engirdles a star and absorbs its energy.
/A lame analogy - An advanced civilization builds trillions of space drone with high efficiency solar panels that flies and surrounds a star. Absorbs its energy and returns every time they need to recharge /
This structure was first described in a sci-fi novel 'Star Maker' (1937) written by Olaf Stapledon. Years later a young Freeman John Dyson reads this book, who later became a Theoretical physicist. One of his work includes a thought experiment that theorizes the existence of a megastructure analogous to the one in Star Maker novel. (He even published a proper research paper backing his theory)
Fast forward to 2015, Kepler Space Telescope noticed unusual light fluctuations in KIC 8462852 star. This unusual light pattern from the star is unexplainable till now. None of the hypothesis seems to explain such weird behaviour. But Dyson sphere theory could. This star is famously called as 'Tabby Star'

Could this be a sign of an advanced civilization?


Ever read a Sci-Fi/dystopian novel or even a movie and thought, 'Wow, it'll be so cool if it happens for real in my life time?'

The infinitely big and the infinitely small are infinitely related :annoyingdog:

More than 170 houses were destroyed, 3 confirmed dead and several missing, New South Wales bushfires fire is turning out to be a major disaster !

"Unprecedented dryness; reductions in long-term rainfall; low humidity; high temperatures; wind velocities; fire danger indices; fire spread and ferocity; instances of pyro-convective fires (fire storms – making their own weather); early starts and late finishes to bushfire seasons. An established long-term trend driven by a warming, drying climate. The numbers don’t lie, and the science is clear"

@freemo I use ExpressVPN. I can't change it for at least a year. So wearing that fact like an armour. :)

@Sphinx I agree. Celebrity culture is common in a country like India and everyone wants to be one :ablobpeekjohnny:

@freemo Wow, Lukcy. My VPN doesn't allow me to play Netflix content. I gave up on trying long ago :drake_dislike:

@freemo its not streaming in Netflix yet (Except for US / people with access to adult swim content)
I downloaded it online 🤐

@freemo It happens a LOT in Indian twitter. People do this to increase their followers count :(
