Since mods are planning on an awful nsfw sister board of /pol/, we should call for mods to make a god-tier board that fills in the gap between /an/, /his/, and /sci/
We need to call for mods to make /pre/ - Prehistoric
This glorious board will be about Prehistoric life and the early cosmos
We can discuss dinosaurs, cavemen, formation of galaxies, etc
I would gladly volunteer to become a janitor or moderator for this board so it will not go to waste

Lots of /sci/entists are interested in the origins and evolution of the cosmos
Not all anons on /sci/ are on /sci/ to soley discuss homework

One of my friends is insisting that Atlantis is real, kind of want to save him before it's too late. Any chance I could get some sources to convince him otherwise?

Give up. There's no saving them once they get that far. I've met people IRL who think the moon landings were fake and they're just as thick as the people online who think it.

>doesn't believe Atlantis existed
I can't tell if op is baiting. OP, it's common knowledge, not to mention historical fact, that Atlantis did indeed exist. Just ask the Greeks, those guys knew their shit. Seriously op, how would you even disprove this?
>>
Its not on you to prove that atlantis doesnt exist. There is no evidence that it doesnt exist just like how There isnt evidence god exists. the burden of proof is on the assertion that atlantis DOES exist.
>>8865927
this is correct. there is historical information that a city of "atlantis" did exist. but there isnt unformation that a city under the water exists today.

Find something your partner values and stretch that to be the sole purpose of colonization. Like a conman.

The great thing about colonization is you don't have to convince anyone. Just take what's yours and kill or enslave anyone who gets in your way.

there is a spectrum of chemicals in corn syrup.

quite possibly, but if it does, it does in such small amounts that you'd have to drink a hundred litres before suffering any ill effects from the mercury

see mercury

"they arent mustard raiss"
"le brainlets meme"
"they dun do school as much!!!!1!"

Would you consider someone with a bachelors in science a scientist?
Because I wouldn't consider someone with a bachelors in engineering an engineer

PhD is required for any true patrician status

The difference: physicists learn physics then do tedious research in academia or 9/10 times get thrown to the wolves in industry

Engineers learn physics and use said research to push the limits of human technological capability. If the academia lottery doesn't work out, they supersede their industrial-physicist counterpart

What's your fucking excuse autists?

Engineers fail to learn physics and then try to argue jet fuel can't melt steel beams and CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas.
>>
Engineers are just jealous they can live off government grants that incentivize the creation of an alarmist hypothesis that can't be fully debunked until after they're dead or at least spent all the money. They are instead stuck dealing with the real world and its consequences.

>>8864037
While physicists fail to learn engineering then try to complain they deserve more than poverty wages

How do you cope with the fact that you will never know everything from the information that is available nowadays? It's completely discouraging to me, to a point that I can't even study my own field.

you should measure your value by accomplishment rather than knowledge, you might impress people around you with lots of knowledge, but the people who are remembered after they die are the ones who found or created new knowledge
