A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

My point is: How can you be so sure it has been dismissed?

Models that don't work should be dismissed. If you have a model for shrinkage that does work it should not be dismissed.

It appears, the SM doesn’t disagree with shrinkage at all.

Yup, pretty much.

But why does it seem your mind being blown by this idea? Maybe be because you didn’t consider us being sucked in anywhere? If that’s the case, here’s why didn’t you consider this yet: I didn’t yet post my post despite the probability of not having a new thought.

Sorry, I'm not following. My mind is definitly NOT blown and black holes don't "suck in" things. That's a common misconception. And I really don't know what you're trying to say with the sentences after that.

Your unfriendliness could just have hurt a kid’s interest into space. Remember that.

I'm sorry that you think I was unfriendly.

But this a community for people that smoked too much weed to saything dumb things that sound clever when you don't think about them too much.

If there is actual kids around that are interested in space theneven more important that unscientific non-sense gets called out.

Quite interesting article, you should read it.

But the TL;DR here is that so far all "shrinking gravity" models had major flaws and didn't work. And the last idea of perfeclty scaling atoms is unobservable, so really more of a thought expriment than an actual model.
