That game is sick, the mods are too, but I’d play fresh at first

    I think you recently heard this term and are trying to shoehorn it into any conversation you can.

    DragonTypeWyvern ,

    It is a fun term, you must admit

    MadBob ,

    I think they were just having a laugh and I sort of found it funny myself.

    Ima have to see an 11,000 year old picture and an 11,001 year old picture as proof of this.

    There is another of these in Lanesborough, Massachusetts, USA.

    Neat. The trick rock has a pet tree

    This is the rock that keeps the Earth right side up. If you knock it off we flip upside down and Australia gets to rule the planet.

    Is there a country that uses a different thousands separator based on unit?

    @Fredselfish@lemmy.world avatar

    I don’t care how long it been balancing there I wouldn’t dare stand that close to it, be just my luck it pick that moment to shrift.

    4am ,

    Yes, in a lot of places a period is used for order-of-magnitude separation and comma is used for decimal places.

    In this title the use seems inconsistent.

    It’s got something for everyone.

    fitjazz ,

    Either the rock weighs exactly 500kg to an impressive precision and has been there for eleven thousand years or it weighs five hundred thousand kg and has been there for exactly 11 years.

    abysmalpoptart ,

    Right, i think he’s asking if there’s some culture where the inconsistency is designed based on unit. So, for example, period for years, comma for weight.

    I think it’s simply an error. Maybe AI generated?

    boredtortoise ,

    Finland uses space for thousands (and comma for decimals), so an article in Finnish would have 500 000 kg

    hemko , to pics in Kummakivi is a 500.000 kg rock in Finland that has been balancing on another rock for 11.000 years

    The name “odd stone” is really deserved. There’s also a pine tree growing on top of the rock

    psycho_driver , to pics in Kummakivi is a 500.000 kg rock in Finland that has been balancing on another rock for 11.000 years

    Or some aliens with antigrav guns were like “Hey you know what would be funny?!?”

    pumpkinseedoil ,
    1. Rock is in the floor
    2. Ice age ends, water floods dirt around the rock away
    3. Rock either rolls down or stays

    We have lots of these in Austria and at least here this is how they became like that.

    If that was a comma, it would be way more impressive…

    Pietson ,

    In Europe generally commas are used for decimals and periods for marking thousands

    windie ,

    Then, it’s a very light rock!

    Skasi ,

    Having exactly 500 kg up to three decimal places would still be quite impressive!

    Passerby6497 ,

    Yeah, that really makes those figures more significant!

    Pietson ,

    Ha, I didn't even realised they used the systems interchangeably

    My cat would go there and push it over…

    Dasus ,
    @Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

    There’s not a feline or a man alive who could move that without tools.

    FlyingSquid ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    If cats could read and open doors, they would collectively go to Finland to push it over with a huge mass of pure cat power.

    Dasus ,
    @Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

    With some levers, definitely doable. With just paws? Eh.

    Also, cats can definitely open doors. Not all cats, but I know a few.

    FlyingSquid ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    I’m talking doors to the outside so they can escape to Finland to knock the rock over.

    Dasus ,
    @Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

    I get that’s what you meant, but technically the way it was worded…

    And the cats I know are cats who frequently roam outdoors and are Finnish. Perhaps they’ve just not seen this post, as outside cats rarely doomscroll.

    FlyingSquid ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    Indeed they don’t doomscroll much. See my first point, re the fact that cats can’t read.

    Dasus ,
    @Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

    Being literate isn’t a requirement for scrolling though, although I do hesitate on how much “doom” applies to things like this.

    But that’s clearly an indoors house-cat, so my hypothesis that outside cats doomscroll less is still valid.

    RandomLegend ,
    @RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

    You understimate the sheer amount of “i-want-to-push-over-things-energy” of a cat.

    Better keep it low profile, or some tourists will try some bad ideas.

    A stick of dynamite might offset it enough to roll.

    Thorny_Insight ,

    Not gonna budge with a truck but a large bottle jack or two might do the trick

    Doesn’t look very new. Are you sure this isn’t old Zealand?

    @Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

    Maybe OP mistook it for New Old Zealand.

    @kindenough@kbin.social avatar

    Off course, that's just the way it is. The cat living with us always needs the snuggles.

    How old is your cat if I may ask?

    korny OP ,

    We aren’t sure, neighborhood cat we welcomed in after taking her to the vet for really bad fleas. She’s been glued to us since!

    kindenough ,
    @kindenough@kbin.social avatar

    You are a kind person taking her in and taking care, she made a good choice staying. She looks somewhat older to me (10+) looking at her face. Ours is 17 now, kind to everyone and still in reasonable health, limbs are getting a bit stiff though.

    korny OP ,

    We are guessing she’s around 2 or so. I just love looking at her eyes!
