Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

I have a box of gravity in my backyard. It's great; I have it under a 15' diameter hemisphere dome, and I just walk all around its surface all day.

There's a website in similar style to "demotivators" and such that has a bunch of these purposefully bad "science" posters. Of course, OP is a plagiarizing little bitch and didn't link to it.

physics grad student here. honestly, I never found the real explanation to make much more sense: Magnetic fields are caused by currents, but permanent magnets have no free current... well, there is this thing called spin that electrons have, and unpaired electrons produce the effect of a small ring current, which produces a magnetic field. Ok, so where do they get their spin, and why is it quantized? and how can something have spin 1/2? Fucking magnets, how do they work?

[–]MrRogersMob 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm a mat sci eng undergrad and the best i can say is that spin being 1/2 has to do with the symmetry of electrons. It's supposed to be the same after 1/2 a rotation. fuck it, i have no fucking idea what's going on. That's the best i've gotten from class and a brief history of time and the fabric of the cosmos

edit**This probably does the best job that I've seen

God has stashed piles of gravity all over the earth. They can usually be found by the hidden dinosaur bones.

To be fair they do still have pieces of gravity in them.

Maybe it's a subtle reference to the hypothesised Grand Unification Theory, where at a large enough energy regime, the forces of electromagnetism and gravity are unified.

This is exactly the kind of scientific ignorance that Reddit always prides itself for fighting against.

Remember that we are still trying to find the missing link between the fundamental forces of nature, including gravity and magnetism. At the moment, we cannot explain either of these forces or where they come from. There is no reason this explanation is less valid then another until we prove otherwise.
