For the life of me I can not see How that facility is commercially viable. Pork is cheap, right now the price for fat hogs on the hoof, in the U.S. is 85 cents a pound, and that is up 40 cents from 18 months ago. Unless this facility gets some kind of market protection, I just don't see how the numbers work.

Yep, pretty weird that there was a person that was a member of both Nirvana and Sound garden and nobody knows who he is. He also financed nirvanas first album. Doesn’t really fit the narrative of either band, or make any sense. What they don’t say, is that he was military, Before, during and after. And he was helping to reshape the culture of America once again. Compliments of the United States Government.

4th time is the charm?

When I say the "4th dimension" I'm referring to time. X, Y and Z let you know where something is -- but, since everything is moving at all times relative to something else, you can't really know a location without factoring for Time.

Anyway, as simple as I can put it; the "time gradient" results in gravity because things closest to a mass are slowed more than the parts of them (and space) that are further away from mass. If it overcomes their movement (inertia), they will get closer together.

You don't need to code. There are solutions out there that you can just copy and tweak prompts to take advantage of.

And you can just click the "Free" option if you are on a budget. ;-)

gotta have clear definition of "big" then.

By diameter? Mass? Bigger then what?We could of course take Earth as ballpark and drive rules from there, but this wont get us far the more of universe we discover. There will be all kinds of odd objects that dont fit into our little bubble of categories.

The reason I'm upset about Pluto is because it's one of those "classic" discoveries, something that should be honored.

There is NO empirical evidence existing or real that Ganymede has liquid water. Prove that it does, which cannot at this time. Empiricists consider the facts, and learn more. But we know suppositions compared to empirically tested and confirmed truths. Anything else is hardly en pointe to understanding events.

U completely went over my head again, lol. Again, I dont have the fundamental knowledge in this field as u or many others maybe having. So when u explain with the assumption I maybe knowing it, I have no clue what u maybe be referring to. I think as some quote of Einstein said, if u understand something properly. U would be able to explain it to a child, and I feel i also would have to be explained I'm that way, as this is a field I have not much knowledge in, but nonetheless some questions pop in my Mind at some point in time.

Sometimes, I try using examples to help explain something to others, so they may understand it a bit easier.

Like for example what I feel is happening here is, for eg Ur in oogla land, and the ooogla boogla dont like it when u touch their moongla because it can cause their hoonglas to expand and become loonglafied which can be a toongla situation.

So even though this maybe be a simple explanation, for someone not familiar with oogla land and their language. This sentence may not make much sense to them, as their first questions might be, well what even I'd a oogla boogla?

Then u could perhaps use simple examples which helps the other person understand the situation even without knowing the fundamentals, which in this case might be.

So basically imagine oogla booglas as some islanders, and they saying, dont touch their eyes(moongla) because touching their eyes can cause their heads to shrink and give them basically a headache which is a messed up situation for them, or as they say, a toongla situation.

Also u mentioned 4th dimension, this another thing I dont understand, I have watched few videos and explanations but still haven't been able to understand it, but those explaining seemed to have gotten it, also u mentioned ai, this another field im interested in too. I feel ai is the next big thing, kinda like smartphones led light the internet etc. And each day its seeming to be going in that direction, I feel it has great potential and those who can get in early may benefit greatly from it. But since I'm not a coder, I'm unable to get into It too much, nor do I have the money to hire people and try and execute some ideas. As for many things, we can already assume It will highly likely be used for evil but likewise it has the potential for good in the other side as well. Maybe a team of good intended ai guys can come together and make something for humanity, that has an everlasting positive effect.
