ELI5: What kind of information do dogs get from sniffing each other's butts? Why do they do it? | 51 | Dogs have sweet smelling anal sacs and the scent of which is unique to each individual dog. It's a way dogs can get to know each other. Dogs can also identify other dogs they've met by sniffing the feces or urine they've left behind and it's why most dogs seem to wipe their feet after peeing or pooping. They sweat t... | 22 | |
[DC/Marvel] If Superman were to don the "black suit" a.k.a Venom, would he still be affected by Kryptonite? | Would he have the weaknesses that he usually has? We know for spiderman it enhanced him, I don't know how it would enhance Supes, since he's well.....pretty powerful already. | 134 | Quick look through Venom's wiki page doesn't show any protection from radiation, which means that kryptonite would still get through. In fact, if that's a corrupted evil Venom, it might be even beneficial to it, weakening Superman enough to get a proper hold on his mind. Then Venom would be able to use it's own tendril... | 129 |
[Star Wars] Why didn't Anakin get freaked out when Palpatine told him about Darth Plagueis in such a creepy way? | I would think he would have wondered why Palpatine knows such things and why he would bring it up in conversation out of nowhere? Wouldn't he have at least told Obi-Wan that Palpatine was acting strange today? | 56 | He does, he figures the whole thing out and goes to Mace Windu about it (Obi Wan was on Utapau at the time).
The reason it takes so long is that Plapatine was one of Anakin's most trusted confidants, he had been mentoring the young Jedi for years. Palpatine supported him when the jedi did not. Furthermore, he touche... | 70 |
Eli5: why does a scissor not work for left handed people but does for right handed? | 34 | scissors are actually made for right handed people typically, it's the way the right hand applies pressure on the handle aligns the blades. When you try and use your left hand, the blades separate and nothing cuts. | 40 | |
CMV: I don't get how Western corporations benefit from instability in other countries | For context, I live in the Philippines, a country that is tremendously rich in gold, copper and other natural minerals, yet we are probably one of the [least attractive destinations for foreign investors](https://business.inquirer.net/332297/ph-among-least-attractive-to-foreign-investors), which consequently leads us t... | 32 | I don't think the Philippines is a good example of an unstable country. You certainly have a lot of problems there, including with violence, social repression, and corruption, but the country is largely "stable" from an outsider's perspective.
If anything, I'd say the Philippines is stable enough *not* to be attracti... | 33 |
[dc] would martian manhunter be affected by godzilla's atomic breath? | 26 | Even if he didn't have a weakness against fire, it'd hurt him pretty bad cause it packs hell of a wallop no matter how you cut it.
But since his weakness to fire is largely psychosomatic, the fact that it resembles fire and causes actual fiery explosions would be enough to trigger the same physiological response as a ... | 18 | |
[District 9] Did no one consider that there could be consequences for mistreating an alien species more advanced than humans? | As the title says, did anyone consider the fact that more aliens could have been on a long distance trek across the galaxy to rescue the stranded ship? And that they might be a bit upset about our treatment of the prawns in Johannesburg when they finally arrived?
We know they have a planet with more moons than ours, a... | 94 | I don't think they were planning to mistreat them, they just didn't have a better plan. Keep in mind the story takes place decades after arrival. An alien ship arrives, and the aliens are apparently helpless and confused. Sure, you do what you can to provide for them, but you can't just have them wandering freely, sinc... | 123 |
When black or otherwise colored plastic is bent or cut, why are the stress marks white? | 282 | The plastic doesn't actually change color. Depending on how it's made it happens for different reasons. Plastic is actually crystalline. When you bend it, one of two things happen. You either make lots of little cracks in it, which changes how it refracts light and makes it look white. Or, the crystals in the plastic g... | 133 | |
[ELI5] What makes a router different from a modem? If they're going to be compared to another object as an example to be explained (like comparing a phone storage to water butt or RAM to washing machine) what will they be and how do they work differently? | 15 | A modem is a modulador/demodulator. It basically translates from one language to another. It allows a computer to speak in a way a phone line can handle, for instance.
A router is something that routes data -- it plugs into multiple networks and chooses which data goes where. An equivalent would be a phone exchange, o... | 15 | |
What broad distinction can be made in the fields of study between mathematical logic as practiced by mathematicians and philosophical logic as practiced by philosophers? | I understand that they both rely on the same, or at least very similar, foundation, but when I look at mathematicians vs philosophers who work with logic at my university, they almost exclusively publish with other mathematicians or philosophers respectively? Are the differences stylistic or goal oriented? or more abst... | 48 | >Are the differences stylistic or goal oriented? or more abstract?
Rather goal-oriented. Usually philosophers and mathematicians are interested in different things. Mathematicians are not interested in, say, paraconsistent/relevant/deontic logics, or the problem of absolute generality, or formal theories of truth, ... | 37 |
[1408] What if a huge crowd of people went into the room? | Olin has been fired, so there’s no one on-staff who believes in 1408’s powers.
A famous rock group books 1408, and they decide to throw a massive party, bringing along so many guests that the room is trashed and there’s almost no space to move around.
Would 1408 be able to do anything in this situation, or can it onl... | 17 | The interior of the room expands to fit all the guests comfortably and proceeds as normal. 1408 is most likely home to a semi-sentient break in reality that leads to the dark between universes called a Thinny, who's goal seems to be pulling living beings into it. | 16 |
[Math] Is every digit in pi equally likely? | If you were to take pi out to 100,000,000,000 decimal places would there be ~10,000,000,000 0s, 1s, 2s, etc due to the law of large numbers or are some number systemically more common? If so is pi used in random number generating algorithms?
edit: Thank you for all your responces. There happened to be [this](https:/... | 3,414 | We don't know if every digit is equally likely in pi, but it is conjectured that this is the case, we just can't prove it yet. We think that this is the case mostly because every digit is equally likely in almost all numbers, so there would have to be some kind of specific reason or obstruction to this for pi if it wer... | 1,456 |
ELI5: How do different images from the same camera vary in file size? | Wouldn't a camera with a constant resolution capture images of the same quality and therefore file size? How is it possible that some images on my camera can be 1.5 MB, and others 2.5 MB? | 179 | Basically, most images are in a compressed format. If a photo has a huge amount of pixels of the same color in a given area, the file format can record this as one piece of information. It's like when you're remembering a phone number: it's a lot easier to remember a sequence if you have two or three numbers that are t... | 164 |
[Batman] Assume Joker never came into existence. How would Batman's crusade have changed? | Let's ignore the whole metaphysical "the universe needs balance, so Batman must have Joker" argument. Batman appears on the scene, starts fighting crime, and Joker literally never comes into existence — in *any* manner. Would Batman's quest to save Gotham succeed? Who would Batman's arch-enemy have been if Joker never ... | 26 | The Joker has pushed Batman more than any of his other Villains. As damaged as Batman has become thanks to the Jokers antics, he has become stronger for facing his nemesis, and definitely more capable of adapting on the fly.
Batman may not have survived this long is he didn't Have the Joker pushing him.

CMV: Trump will not accept the election even if multiple recounts are done. | His main goal is to try and expose as much "fraud" as possible, or find enough mail-in votes (which he encouraged his followers not to do, while Biden encouraged them to do) to push him to a victory in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. Let's say the recount is done, and the results are identical (within a... | 35 | Doesn't matter. The only "accepting" needed from him is to be gone from the White House on January 20th. Doesn't matter if he's dragged out kicking and screaming. He has no power once Biden takes office. | 18 |
[Star Wars] Why aren't the force powers such as the jump and dash used more strategically in the films? | After rewatching Empire Strikes Back and remembering the somewhat entertaining fight scene in The Phantom Menace, I saw a few instances of Luke and Obi Wan using their "force jumps" (I assume that's the canon term):
1. Luke uses it to escape the carbonite trap during the ending fight with Vader.
2. Luke uses this aga... | 219 | Obi-Wan was still a Padawan in his fight against Darth Maul so it is possible that he hasn't mastered the Force Dash to a degree to be able to use it in the stress of a fight, after facing Darth Maul and the temptations of the Dark Side his connection to the Force grew dramatically allowing to become a Jedi Knight.

[40k] does the emperor have a helmet to go with his armor? If so, what does it look like? | 19 | The Emperor generates a constant psychic field that warps his own physical form, allowing him to take on any human appearance and a rather diverse range of sizes. It also creates a near impenetrable psychic barrier that protects him from harm.
He doesn't need a Helmet. He doesn't even need the armour. It's just for s... | 39 | |
CMV: We only think Tupac and Biggie were the best rappers of all time because they died so young | My argument is basically that Tupac and Biggie Smalls (The Notorious B.I.G.) are only thought of as the GOATs because of the aura surrounding them. They are thought of as almost beyond reproach because they died so young and had the famous rap feud.
If Nas died after *It Was Written* he would be considered the GOAT. I... | 58 | You can't measure Greatness by objective standards. You cant just play two rap albums back to back and then ask a panel of judges to conclusively say which of them is better than the other.

Can a function have more than one integral? excluding +C | apologise if this is a dumb question, my math knowledge reaches barely into partial differential equations and assorted transforms studied in university, but I'm just curious if there are methods I havent heard about that its possible that more than one function can have the same derivative | 30 | In general, no.
Here's some rough intuition: consider that if `F(x)` is the integral of some function `f(x)`, then `F(b) - F(a)` computes the area of `f` in the region between `a` and `b`.
Now suppose `G(x)` is also an integral of `f(x)`. This means that for any `a` and `b`,
F(b) - F(a) = [area of f between a a... | 31 |
What tips and tricks worked best for you when you started to feel unmotivated? | I’ve been struggling to find the motivation to study and complete coursework for the past year now but I only have a few more courses left until I get my degree. I need to power through this and am looking for tips and tricks that have helped others to bring back their motivation. | 44 | * Avoid social media, internet etc.
* Do productive meditation make plan of action, i.e. go on a walk. Research supported.
* Mix up your day, novelty goes a way.
* Socialize a bit with peers in the field.
* Don't overthink action, the brain can replace action with thinking action to your demise. | 21 |
CMV: "Gifted" programs in schools should be seen as a necessity and a priority. | I'm looking at this from the perspective of a Canadian student who completed the Gifted program, but I really want some alternative perspectives.
Basically, I see "Gifted" students as being kids with greater potential than the average student, either through greater intrinsic motivation or natural talent. So, a socie... | 361 | The problem is that we treat educational challenges like a prison lunch line. Every day, you get a fixed-size ration of challenges called "schoolwork". It doesn't matter if you can handle more, or if you can't handle that many; you have to take exactly the portion you're told to take.

Eli5: How does Bamboo grow so quickly and why? | I’ve heard stories about being able to watch Bamboo grow, but how does it grow so quickly and why? | 217 | Plants need sunlight to create energy. The process of photosynthesis turns sunlight into sugar and that sugar fuels the energy the plants lives off. The stuff a plant takes from the soil doesn't provide it with energy but it does provide it with building blocks to grow.
That's why plants grow upwards. They absorb buil... | 210 |
CMV: r/IncelTears is not as toxic as r/Braincels | Incels frequently tell me that I am "incel in denial" for being a 22 year old virgin.

ELI5: If "The Hobbit" was critiqued for having more frames per second than usual and looking like a television show, why TV shows don't lower they FPS to look more "professional" like movies? | Many say (not me, I liked it) that "The Hobbit" looked like a cheap soap opera because their highers FPS (THAT IS NOT THE POINT, THE POINT IS IN THE NEXT SENTENCE).
So why television shows do not lower their frames per second in order to look like movies, that have lower FPS, since that high frame rate is somewhat str... | 1,340 | Some do. 30 Rock does this.

ELI5:Why does english have the same word "you" for singular and plural? | I'm not an english native speaker. Doesn't it sometimes lead to confusion? | 20 | English originally had a singular/familiar *thou* and plural/formal *you*, a distinction that exists in many European languages (e.g. French *tu* vs. *vous*), but lost it by the 17th century in preference for using *you* in all cases.
Just like in other languages (in French, *vous* can be singular/formal, so it's not ... | 23 |
ELI5: How come sometimes it rains very hard for a few minutes, then stops. And sometimes it rains calmly for a few hours? | 1,212 | Good question!
TLDR: Lapse rate, or change in temperature with height, plays a role in whether you get thunderstorms or less dramatic rain.

Would it be more practical to assemble mega-spaceships in orbit? | I'm referring to spaceships of a caliber we're not even close to building right now. Large "super-ships" capable of being carriers or transport shuttles. Something that big seems like it'd be near-impossible to launch from Earth. But would it be possible for, one day, humans to send the pieces individually into orbit t... | 53 | The "super-ship" we're technologically most able to build would be an Orion drive.

[MCU] How will Justin hammer react to the news about Tony stark? I'm not sure if he'll be pleased or genuinely upset? | 21 | I think he'd be pissed that he could never conceivably win against Tony in any way, shape or form after Tony went out so firmly on top. Plus seeing Tony's face everywhere would just salt that particular wound. | 49 | |
[Star Wars] Can superheavy/vehicle-grade lightsaber-like weapons exist? Could something like that deflect turbolasers or other heavy bolt weapons? | I'm asking for a friend. He likes to tinker. | 25 | Lightsabers can already block heavy blaster cannons, and in Legends, they can also block turbolasers.
In canon, the Death Star is basically a gigantic lightsaber, as it uses the same types of crystals that regular lightsabers use. | 33 |
[Star Trek] Why do Romulans only have one hair style? | 71 | Imagine you're from a culture that highly prized styling their arm hair.

Then you meet humans. You ask: "Why do all humans wear the sa... | 146 | |
ELI5 what bleach (Clorox) does to organic things. | 148 | Bleach is most commonly sodium hypochlorite. The hypochlorite ion ClO^- is a very strong oxidizing agent, meaning that it steals the electrons off of other things. This is why it is such a good disinfectant, because ionizing (stealing electrons) from an organism's body is deadly. For things with a tiny body like bacter... | 70 | |
ELI5:Why does it feel so much better when someone else touches rather than you touching yourself? | 84 | When you touch yourself your brain plans the movements required to make the contact. When this movement is planned, 2 copies of this information are sent; one towards the part of the body performing the movements and one is sent to another part of the brain (the efference copy). When the movement has happened, your ner... | 82 | |
ELI5: Why does shipping something from the USA to NZ have around triple the price of shipping a similar item from NZ to the USA? | It costs me around $15 (NZ) to send an item from NZ to the USA, but around $30 US (which is about $45 NZ) to ship a similar size/weight item the other way. Is this perhaps due to some sort of taxes behind the scenes? | 26 | No it is not an import tax thing, it has everything to do with the volume of things going what direction. There are a lot of tings that ship from NZ to the US. There are very few things that ship from the US to NZ.
While you may think that ships would just move back and forth, that is not actually how shipping works. ... | 10 |
If E=MC^2 and M(photon) = 0 then how does light contain/transmit [E]nergy? | From what I understand, light travels at C because it has no mass. Anything with mass >0 cannot attain a speed of C. How, or why, then does light carry energy?
I also feel correct in thinking that light (gamma radiation specifically) is indeed the medium through which fusion of lighter elements (e.g. hydrogen in... | 61 | The energy equation you're looking at is incomplete, as it is the energy for a particle at rest. When moving, there is an energy associated with the momentum, p:
E^2 = m^2 c^4 + p^2 c^2.
At rest (p=0) this reduces to E = m c^2 for a massive particle. For a photon, which always travels at v = c, the momentum is given ... | 130 |
ELI5: What exactly happens when a lightning strikes causes the power to go out, and what happens that causes it come back on again after a random amount of time? | Happened a few times last night. Very close lightning strike, power dies, 10-90 seconds later it would just come back on like nothing happened. If nothing is damaged, what makes it go off in the first place? | 55 | Voltage and current spikes cause circuit breakers to open, interrupting service. This is to protect the grid, transformers and systems from failure. After a while, the breakers are closed, restoring service to impacted areas. | 33 |
CMV: All these surface-level reforms like making sure black characters are not voiced by non black voice actors are a near worthless distraction. | I can't say it any better than the title.

Very little socie... | 7,908 | A large part of it is just people changing what they can. The company that owns Uncle Ben's doesn't run the police force, and the people that produce the Simpson's don't have real political power, but both of them changing is a statement that they side with the protestors. Sure, it's pretty much useless compared to pol... | 1,474 |

[MCU] How did Thanos prove himself to be above his children? Why did Maw not intervene during Thanos’s fights and how did he know that Thanos would win? | For the first question, 2 or 3 of the 4 children in character can potentially defeat Thanos.

Are there other signals similar to the "WOW!" signal? Was that the closest we ever gotten to find real extraterrestrial life? | Just curious if the scientific community has really been any closer on finding extraterrestrial signals than this one or the [Pulsar LGM-1](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGM-1)? These sort of discoveries really excites me. Would it be possible to track again these signals? Are there any more of those? | 109 | The short answer: yes.
If you read (or listen to the audio book) Pale Blue Dot (1994) by Carl Sagan, he discusses 8 events that have occurred over the last 20 odd years (as of 1994) that meet ALL criteria necessary to be considered to be of extra-terrestrial origin except one which is repeat-ability.

ELI5:What causes car engines to increase in noise and vibration over time? | New cars are usually silent with little vibration. Over time they become shaky and audible. Why? Is there a way to return them back to what they were? | 22 | Part of why it seems that way is because cars are always getting smoother and quieter. If you bought a new car 10 years ago, it would seem much quieter than an old car at the time, but it was louder than a new car today. The other part is mostly due to breakdown of noise insulating materials (both on the engine, and in... | 21 |
Why is there a history gap between Africa's civilizations? | In high school when we were covering ancient civilizations, once Egypt fell to the Greeks/Romans (can't figure which put the final nail in the coffin), we didn't see anything in Africa until either the Muslims took control of the northern part or until the slave trade with the colonies and later state in the southern U... | 508 | Actually, the answer is that there isn't a gap. Or rather, there's a "History' gap but not a 'history' gap.
In other words, once we separate History (the discipline) from history (the past as it happened), we can see that it's errors in interpretation and inadequate sourcing and methodology that makes it appear as if... | 198 |
[Advanced Dungeons and Dragons: First Edition] Why can't anyone but humans be paladins? | 26 | Humans have such short lifespans.

ELI5: How do egg cells “know” not to accept more sperm once fertilized? How do they keep the rest out? | This question is courtesy of my ten year old daughter who meant to search “cornception” on YouTube but got autocorrected to “conception.” The videos that came up were fortunately educational in nature. Thanks for reading this far! | 7,893 | The cortical reaction!
To ELI5 it:
First, you need to know that egg cells are surrounded by a thick layer of jelly-like goop (Zona Pellucida) Sperm cells have to burrow through that goop to actually reach the egg itself. The first sperm to make it through the goop to the egg sends its genetic information into the egg ... | 6,861 |

Is there a part of the brain responsible solely for coordinating communication between all other parts of the brain? If so, what happens when that region is damaged (i.e. a stroke) | 135 | There are many different structures solely responsible for conducting signals in the brain and destroying those structures can either result in very little impairment or death. For instance, the corpus callosum is a structure containing 300 million nerve fibers which connect the two sides of the brain but destroying i... | 22 | |
ELI5: How do blue-light filters for glasses work? And what is the purpose of filtering blue light? | 32 | **The Belief**: Blue light reminds our brains of daylight, and therefore causes our brains/bodies to produce chemicals that keep us awake
**How glasses work:** Just like any type of light filtering, the glasses are just made of materials that block blue light from passing through them, but still allow other colors to ... | 27 | |
What's the point of rockets in space? | In many movies that deal with space travel you see ships that constantly have their main rockets engaged. Wouldn't this keep the ship at a constant rate of acceleration and not just propelling the ship at the same rate? Or is there a force, even in space, similar to friction that keeps ships from constantly acceleratin... | 128 | Most movies don't care too much about being scientificly accurate vs apealing to look at. Let's ask it like this, if you want an impressive action shot, would you blast the rockets at full thrust or have it just sitting there doing nothing?
And yes you're right, the small resistance you get from space dust isn't a big... | 83 |
CMV: Telling someone to watch what they drink/wear (to avoid getting raped) is no different than telling someone to lock their door (to avoid getting robbed) | edit: It has been pointed out that I'm including two entirely different things in this analogy (wearing revealing clothing vs. drinking) and the "wearing" analogy doesn't really hold up. So in this example, I'm solely referring to drinking, and I apologize for indicating otherwise.
-----------
If I get robbed becaus... | 198 | > We have locks on our doors, and have had them pretty much since doors were invented, because it's simply a logical protection to have against bad people.
This is the disanalogy. Locks on doors actually dissuade and/or prevent people with criminal intent from robbing you. Wearing modest clothes does not dissuade... | 113 |
ELI5: Why do pigeons thrive so much better inside cities than any other bird? | Every city I ever visited had an abundance of pigeons but rarely other kinds of birds and definitely not as many/openly running/flying around. Do pigeons just thrive better in cities than other kinds of birds, if so why? | 275 | Pigeons are common in cities because buildings more closely resemble their natural nesting sites.
Rock doves nest on the side of cliffs. Not in trees or shrubs.
Human buildings provide lots of ledges for nesting.
Combine that with the fact that they're harmless, (so we don't kill them for being pests) not tasty (so... | 402 |
[Halo] Was the Halcyon-class a bad design, or did it just arrive right before major technological development? | So I'm something of a Halo lore nut. The Halcyon-class is a pre-Covenant war design, at the time of its manufacture it's the smallest ship to be called a cruiser. It has very good armour and massive structural reinforcement, but it has only 1 MAC and 6 Archer missile pods. Its engines had only 10% of the output of "mod... | 368 | Humanity had a huge technological leap after first contact. They may have been on the edge of some great technology (mjolnir, shields, etc) but reverse engineering and then improving upon covenant and forerunner goo gaws advanced the unsc decades or centuries in a fraction of the time.
The halcyon class was built prio... | 273 |
ELI5 why it matters in which currency crude oil is traded. | I mean, we give oil a certain value that can be easily expressed in each local currency. So why should it matter if we trade it in, say South Korean Won? | 45 | When you sell a product internationally, you want to use a currency that is easy to exchange, and that will hold its value well. That means dollars, euros, yen, pounds, and maybe Swiss francs.
If you are Venezuela and just sold a billion dollars with of oil and took won for it, you are going to have a problem. No on... | 12 |
Can someone simplify the NBA strike? | 68 | NBA owners are losing money. Less than five teams turned in a profit last season. They feel this is mainly due to overspending on players' salaries. While the NBA has a salary cap (the maximum amount a team can spend on all its players; it's set at around 55 million) to prevent overspending, it's a "soft cap," which me... | 68 | |
[Middle Earth] Do those corrupted by the One Ring still have free will? | 39 | I would say so, in the sense that they make their own choices. The One Ring ultimately serves only Sauron and wants to rejoin him, influencing its host to do whatever it can to get that to happen. Gollum was probably the most affected by the Ring and he would never give it up, but it changed and manipulated him to get ... | 29 | |
If I leave my postdoc for a non-academic position, would I be able to re-join academia later on? | I have a job offer for a science communication- outreach position. I am thinking of taking it because I want to see if that career path would make me happier. The position involves grant writing and fieldwork, but no opportunities for publishing. I am on my first postdoc. If I leave my postdoc for this position and the... | 118 | The vast majority of postdocs in most fields have no realistic academic career prospects, so likely you can't actually decrease your chances very much. But yes, it will be difficult to get back into the game. When applying for jobs, you will likely be judged by people who have never known anything but the very linear c... | 128 |
[The Walking Dead] What if the Governor had been the man he pretended to be? What if he worked out an alliance with the Prison group? | What if he was a rational yet at the still time, strong individual, willing to work with other survivors, and wasn't secretly a maniac?
I mean, we see throughout the TV series that he isn't entirely a psychopath.
His treatment of the family he meets in Season 4 is evidence of that.
If the Governor didn't have his ... | 17 | They would have stayed at the prison forever. Slowly picked up more and more survivors until they reached a critical mass. Eventually would have bumped into the terminus group where they would have gone to war and won. Maybe met Abraham and company. A group would have ended up going to DC and maybe finding Alexandria a... | 11 |
Why does Britain not have the same culture of mass protest that we see in countries such as Spain, Brazil etc? | 44 | Some recent examples of large protest in the U.K within the last few years. Numbers taken from Wikipedia
2011 London anti-cuts protest: Various sources estimated that the demonstration was attended by between 250,000 and 500,000 people.
The 2010 British student protests: Approximately 30,000 to 52,000 protesters att... | 50 | |
[Star Wars] Why was Anakin so willing to kill Obi Wan? | Probably a dumb question but why was Anakin so willing to kill Obi Wan on Mustafar? He been a great mentor and friend to him since he was a child. They been through so much together and Obi Wan has never done him any wrong. I can understand Anakin hating the Jedi order due to the council not making him a master and Pal... | 15 | > Did he think he stole his girl Padme or something?
Actually, yeah. But not in a romantic sense.
At the time, Anakin fully believed Palpatine's lies and his own deep-seated insecurities about the Jedi. He hated them for holding him back for so long, denying him the power to save his wife and by proxy his mother,... | 29 |
[Hunger Games] if each tribute is allowed to bring one small personal item with them into the games, and the mines around the starting plates are sensitive enough to be triggered by them, whats stopping someone from throwing their personal item at another plate to kill them before the games start? | 57 | Not an answer to your specific scenario, but one year a tribute used a small wooden ball to do just that... only she dropped it onto her *own* plate to detonate the explosive device, killing herself. The gamemakers now check all personal items before the events.
But in case of such a scenario, then the one who perform... | 53 | |
ELI5: What is happening when power flickers like its going to shut off when a storms approaching? | Wife and I just noticed a flash of lightning outside and a couple seconds later heard thunder and our lights flickered like we were going to lose power. What is happening here? | 20 | Basically there is a voltage drop. Voltage drops if there is a short in the system (or when more power is used than produced, but that isn't the case here). A short is when the high voltage line gets connected to the neutral line (or ground) without proper resistance. Imagine you stick a paper clip in a plug so you con... | 19 |
[Harry Potter] Why are wizards/witches limited to wands? | It's well known that wands consist of a wood rod and a magical core, but why do wizards stick with a footlong stick that channels their powers when they could use a staff which would allow for a much larger or multiple items as it's core to better channel or even amplify their power? Say something like a willow sapling... | 51 | They aren't. According to Ollivander, a wizard or witch can channel his or her power through any instrument encasing a sufficiently magical substance. However, after his research, he came to the conclusion that the combination of wand wood properties, shape, flexibility and wand core (Ollivander is very adamant that on... | 59 |
[Star Wars] If Princess Leia was somehow the ambassador of Naboo, would Grand Moff still recklessly destroy the planet without seeking the Emperor's advice first? | I know this would mean a lot of plot issues would be made different, but if Vader and the Grand Moff have in custody a royal member of Naboo (or if Princess Leia was an ambassador from Naboo), would Moff Tarkin have used it as a demonstration for the Death Star, without seeking any consultation from Emperor Palpatine (... | 85 | In the original Battlefront 2, the 501st actually puts down a rebellion on Naboo that includes assassinating the current Queen.
Emperor Palpatine does not give a fuuuuuuuuuuck about his home planet, or life and civilization in general. Dude is just a black hole of greed and hatred. | 107 |
CMV: Police should be held to the same standards for self defense as any other citizen. | Let me be clear, I am not against the use of self defense by police officers, or anyone, just the idea that the laws do not apply equally.
This is in direct response to the recent clearing of Michael Brelo of the Cleveland Police Department. In 2012 Brelo was part of a chase that ended with over 130 rounds shot into ... | 172 | * Regular people cannot break into your house, but firemen can if needed.

ELI5: If energy cannot be created or destroyed, what happens to the energy and matter that gets sucked into black holes? | 16 | Black holes do not violate these conservation laws.
Think of a penny that you drop into an ocean. For any practical purposes, that penny is gone, but that doesn't mean it just disappeared, it's still somewhere deep in that ocean.
Black holes don't destroy energy, they just "trap" it, if that makes sense. | 42 | |
[Harry Potter]Dementors make humans experience extreme depression, that being the case how do they keep people in Azkaban from just lying down until they die of hunger/thirst? | 15 | The effect of a Dementor probably isn't on/off so much as an intensifying area of effect enhanced if the Dementor is focusing on you... If you're further away and there's only 1, and it's not actively draining you it'll take longer to set in and probably won't be as profound.
There's a passing comment by Fudge, when h... | 20 | |
ELI5: Over 800,000 people go missing in the US every year, the vast majority people under the age of 18. Discounting the runaways, resolved cases, and other causes, how many of these missing can be attributed to psychopaths and sexual slavery? | 24 | Your question is flawed and that's why you are getting widely different answers. let me ask you a question. If a teenager runs away from home, that's a run away. If that run away falls in with a bad crowd (because, homeless) and ends up being sex slave in a far away place. If that person's disappearance attributed ... | 27 | |
Acne, why the face and the back? | 404 | Short answer: inflammation of hair follicles which are located in those areas. Areas like the face and back (and chest and butt for many others) are particularly prone to build ups of excess dirt, bacteria, and sebum – all of which contribute to the formation of acne pimples and cysts.
Acne causes are complicated and ... | 343 | |
ELI5: This Ancient Athens quote about women. | Thucydides rounds off the funeral speech attributed to Pericles: " The greatest glory of a woman is to be least talked about among men, whether in praise or blame".
I am doing literature study about Ancient Athens and that's the quote I found in one of the books, could someone explain it with the context of the wom... | 31 | The Athenian ideal for women was to remain invisible to society. Athenian women as a rule did not engage in public life (politics, philosophy, science, poetry, drama, athletics, war) and did not own property. At the extreme, women of the upper class were encouraged to remain isolated at home (though very few probably a... | 37 |
[DC]What would be different if Batman publicly admitted he was Bruce Wayne? | 17 | He'd be sued a million times over and the GCPD wouldn't politically be able to work with him anymore, since they rely on the plausible deniability of 'oh we totally can't arrest this vigilante we don't even know who he is.' | 41 | |
[DC/Marvel] How do superheroes routinely invent things that outpace far more advanced civilizations? | This is mostly a Marvel question. Earth is a relatively unadvanced civilization compared to, say, the Kree or the Shi’ar, yet it seems like humans constantly invent things that these societies haven’t. Dr. Doom has a time machine. Reed Richards has an entire multiversal council of his alternate selves. At the very leas... | 451 | So much like our current continuity, most species’ development is cumulative in nature. First comes the basics of math and physics, then comes nuclear mechanics, then relativity and so on. Breakthroughs are rarely isolated; for every Einstein there were years of other brilliant minds laying the framework for their adva... | 285 |
[DC] Can Starro the Conqueror infect Darkseid? | 24 | It could possibly infect his avatar (highly unlikely though because Darkseid is at least top 5 in the verse for mind control resistance). But Darkseids real form is a 5th dimensional consciousness so there's nothing starro could do to control the real body, it'd be like a person drawn on a paper mind controlling a 3D h... | 15 | |
ELI5: Why are picture frames so expensive? | So I recently decided I wanted a poster and because I'm an adult, and didn't want my $15 masterpiece held up by tacks I figured I'd get a frame for it. My first stop was a local frame shop where I explained I wanted something inexpensive for a poster. They told me they had a cheap poster package. Simple black stained w... | 17 | Those cheap frames are far far far from archival. If you don't have uv glass, the art is going to fade quickly. If you don't have non-acidic backing, it's going to discolor and hurt your image. Then there are things like museum glass that eliminate glare almost completely. You don't realize how nice that is until you s... | 13 |
[Into the Spider-Verse] Why is Gwen enrolled at the private school? | Gwen is at the school before Miles gets powers. Not just there, but apparently enrolled and having a desk assigned.
Why was she at the school taking classes? Miles hadn't gotten powers, and it's a private school requiring enough tuition that Miles' parents are struggling. Also shouldn't there have been an application ... | 32 | I have a few theories:
1. she could have hacked her way in.
2. She could have taken some other girl's place, potentially her alternate universe self's (we don't know if that universe has a Gwen, only that Peter B. Parker's and her's did).
3. Gwen may have had a connection in her own universe she exploited to ge... | 54 |
Does DeVos influence higher ed? | I've Googled, of course, but everything I've found is focused on primary/secondary education.
Would anyone 'in the know' share their knowledge about the effects her appointment might have on higher ed?
I'm currently interviewing for PhD programs and expect I'll go to a private university, but this could have far reac... | 29 | Yes, the Department of Education deals with higher education as well. The biggest involvement is through the Pell grant program which provides part of the support for many, many college students. That also means it's the agency responsible for issues involving the role of for-profit colleges. It's also the agency which... | 30 |
CMV:Whites are more racists against black culture than black skin color | When we talk about racism in America, more often than not it's based around culture rather than skin color. A black man that acts white, while still somewhat disadvantaged, does MUCH better in society than a black man that speaks in ebonics, has black culture mannerisms and generally gives off a vibe of highly ingrain... | 197 | I'd like to point out that the main reason blacks have a separate culture is because slavery, segregation and skin-color racism excluded them from mainstream, white culture, to the extent that they ended up developing their own form of English. You'll notice that England does not have a separate black culture, or not t... | 126 |
CMV: My best plan in life would be to illegally immigrate to the USA | I am in the USA on a work visa. I like it here. I also like traveling and gaining new experiences in life.
The process to legally immigrate to the USA is long winding and would require me to be a worker for 7-8 years (and this could get significantly worse if the election results go crazy). That doesn't sound like my ... | 24 | Truman Capote once said, **"The problem with living outside the law is that you no longer have its protection."**
Illegal immigrants are forced to suffer all kinds of injustices and abuse because they can't utilize public (and many private) services without getting caught.

Amor Fati and Existentialism | As far as my understanding goes, \*amor fati\* or love of (one's) fate, is (among other things) an existentialist's way of coming to terms with essence; that it is that although the world may include unchangeable structures that we are not naturally inclined to desire (i.e., suffering and death) we can still choose wi... | 16 | I think it's a bit misguided to think of existentialism as a philosophical system with main creeds and core tenets.
*Amor fati* is a concept from Nietzsche's philosophy and relates to his contemplation on eternal recurrence and becoming the "yea-sayer." If you're interested in that concept, you should read *The Gay S... | 10 |
[Avatar: Legend of Korra] How would things have played out if Aang was still the Avatar during the events of LoK? | Let’s assume that being in the ice for 100 years hadn’t decreased Aang’s lifespan, and he was still alive and kicking during the events of LoK. How would things have changed? | 16 | For the most part, Korra's enemies would have chosen not to do what they did, or at least waited until Aang passed away.
Amon was raised on his father's stories of the avatar's power, and would have been too wary of Aang to start an uprising during his lifetime. Aang would have been easily able to reverse Amon's bloo... | 32 |
[RPGs] How come the stronger and healthier you are (more hit points), the longer it takes you to heal up to full strength? Shouldn't it be the opposite? | Whereas a rookie adventurer can be injured to near-unconsciousness, but then very quickly heal up to full strength. | 47 | Suppose there are two adventurers. "Rookie" with 10 health, and "Veteran" with 100 health.
They both take an axe-to-the-face, which equals ten-damage. It's still the same wound here. It's not as if the Rookie is *completely destroyed* at 0/10, and the veteran is only mildly inconvenienced at 90/100. The difference is ... | 67 |
Do you shelf negative results or try to publish them? | I have been struggling with this for many years now. Had to drop quite a few projects during my PhD that if published, the negative results could actually be useful for others to at least know what not to try. As a result, I started a mini-exploration on this topic by interviewing other researchers, complied here: [htt... | 22 | Null results absolutely should be published . The file draw problem is one of the big factors causing the replication crisis.
Getting a null result is still data towards answering the research question, even if it isnt the answer you were hoping for. | 15 |
[Star Wars] What is human language called? What is its origin? | 157 | Every human in Star Wars speak Galactic Basic, which is the trade language derived from Old Coruscanti with a pidgin of words including Durese and Bothese.
Basic first appeared after the fall of the Rakatan Infinite Empire and during the Formation of the Galactic Republic. | 192 | |
[Jurassic World] How was the Mosasaurus created? | In the Jurassic Park series, it is explained that the dinosaurs were genetically created by extracting blood sucked by insects that had traces of dinosaur DNA still left in it with the gaps being filled in with amphibian DNA. But in Jurassic World, how was the Mosasaurus created? Since it A: It lives in the ocean meani... | 42 | Its an aquatic reptile, so it still breaths air. There may have been some that got beached, and that's where the insects got them. Also, it's way bigger than the real thing, so there is probably a lot of work done on its DNA | 42 |
[Marvel] What would happen if Juggernaut ran through a pool of molten adamantium which then started cooling? | The adamantium would become cool enough to solidify while he is in it. | 39 | The heat from the friction caused by Juggernaut moving through the liquid as it becomes more viscous would cause the adamantium to never solidify but instead reach a steady state of temperature/viscosity according to what speed Juggernaut entered the pool. | 37 |
What are some lesser known traits of narcissistic personality disorder? | I know about the obvious traits, such as having a grandiose sense of self, being secretly insecure on the inside, and placing a great deal of care on their public image. I'm wondering what some of the lesser known traits of clinical narcissists are. | 57 | Not realizing other people have feelings, or at least failing to understand feelings in others. Narcissists tend to be empathically clueless or clumsy. They're the sort of person who says something incredibly offensive and then is confused or even angry at everyone for being offended.

[X-Men] Could Charles Xavier use his powers to make humans stop hating mutants? | Charles Xavier has the power to manipulate and control the minds and thoughts of any living being, and with or without Cerebro(depending on the continuity) he could access every single mind on the planet. This got me thinking, could Charles theoretically use this to erase anti-mutant thoughts and feelings from human mi... | 32 | He absolutely could do that, but he explains on more than one occasion things like that won't work because it would take constant reinforcement.
Like he could convince a guy he's a woman but the effect wouldn't be permanent, the mind would find a way to circumvent his suggestion. | 29 |
I believe the benefit of recycling is a myth CMV. | I believe that as demand for it increases, technology will catch up to the problems we face re global warming and landfills very quickly, *I don't believe anything which can be burned with oxygen is non-biodegradable*, and I believe humanity is more than equipped to deal with the problem of global warming quickly and e... | 17 | Metal recycling is extremely useful, more for its economic benefits than its environmental ones. It's much more efficient and less harmful than other types of recycling, but most importantly it's cheaper than getting new metal and allows for the creation of independent metal purchasing businesses, which in turn allow p... | 20 |
ELI5:What is the purpose of Nautical Miles and why dont we just use regular Miles or Kilometers for ocean or air travel? | 117 | Nautical miles are useful because 1 nautical mile is 1 minute of latitude, or 1/60th of a degree of latitude. It makes them useful when navigating on charts, where latitude and longitude are in degrees and fractions of degrees. | 171 | |
CMV: Hiring a Real Estate Buyer's Agent Will Cost you More Than Purchasing a Home Without a Buyer's Agent | I hear repeatedly that I should hire a realtor to represent me when purchasing a home. I hear that a buyer's agent will work hard for me and will help me get the best deal possible on my home purchase. My logic says that this isn't true.
Given that a buyer's agent will make 2.5% to 3% of the home's price in commission... | 20 | An agent will know all the ins and outs of the industry and you don't know any of them. It's in their best interest to get you a house you like as quickly as possible and to get it for you at a price you like. This serves a couple of goals. The first is the faster she gets you a house you like the sooner she can pick u... | 14 |
ELI5: If the government considers you an adult at 18, than why does federal financial aid deem you inelegible for assistance if you're parents make too much money? | I have some friends that have this issue and can't go to school because of it. I would guess it's because they assume the parents will pay for it. However many parents either cant or won't pay, leaving alot of kids screwed over something they can't control.
| 3,226 | While you are an adult at 18, you continue to be considered a "dependent" of your parents until you turn 25. This is because parents typically financially support their children even after their 18th birthday. You don't hear about many 18 year olds being kicked to the curb by their parents on their birthday, although ... | 1,200 |
[Chronicles of Riddick] How did they build a prison on Crematoria? | There would only be so many hours to work before scorching sunlight or frigid cold would sweep across the construction site. Anything that couldn't be pulled into orbit in that time; construction materials, tools and vehicles, workers would be destroyed and it could take weeks or months to get a resupply.
Additionally... | 31 | I would wager that the facility started as a mining operation, and if there is good ore to be found, companies will find a way. Probably, as /u/deftspyder noted, with prefabricated units.

[Mass Effect] How many dreadnoughts do the Turians have? | I've never played the games myself, but I am very into all the lore and fluff of it.
I've tried looking at wikis and playthroughs of it, but have found no reference to the size of their fleet.
Was wondering if anyone knew the numbers, or a general idea / speculation of it. | 15 | The Treaty of Farixen places limits on the numbers of dreadnoughts each species can produce on a 5:3:1 scale.
For every 5 dreadnoughts the turians build, the asari and salarians can build 3, and anyone else can build 1. In order to open an embassy on the Citadel, you have to sign the treaty and become subject to its ... | 25 |
CMV: If you graduate from a 4-year university with more than $100,000 of student debt, you have no right to complain about that debt. | First off, this is not a discussion about the university system as a whole or about student debt in general. This only concerns people with massive student loan debt. I propose that this level of debt is not a result of any failure of the education or loan system, but rather poor decision making on the part of the pers... | 74 | Your logic is that someone can only complain when the consequences are results of actions outside of their control. When they are directly responsible for consequences, they should not have the right to complain. How did you make that assessment? | 51 |
