Natural Philosophy - SLRPNK
slrpnk.net
external-link
A collaborative space of exploration into questions about the natural world, and meta-questions such as what constitutes an answer, a question, or why we can even ask questions in the first place. Submissions should be relevant to subjects that are fundamentally rooted in physics. It can get blurry sometimes, but if you can answer the question “How does this relate to (your interest in) understanding the nature of our apparent reality?” you should be ok. These are the informal guidelines we follow here: 1. The questions we pose, we believe to have falsifiable answers [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falsifiability]. 2. The answers we put forth, we believe to be falsifiable. 3. The discussions we have, we have in good faith and in the genuine interest of identifying, understanding or communicating the kind of questions and answers we believe can satisfy the above points. 4. The arguments we present, we make a reasonable effort to present alongside assumptions and biases we are able to identify as relevant, and we remain humble to the fact that we can’t identify them all. Submissions and comments are moderated on a subjective case-by-case basis to facilitate and maintain a healthy, cosy, and rewarding environment for you who would come here with a genuine interest in learning, participating or merely observing others engage in natural philosophy. Just to state some obvious (non-exhaustive set of) behaviours and content we won’t have here: bigotry; hate speech; sealioning [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning]; strawmen [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man]; pseudo-/anti-science; dis-/misinformation. Additional context may be taken into consideration as well. For those of you on Matrix, there is a super-space which tries to aggregate scientific chat rooms and spaces: https://matrix.to/#/#science-space:matrix.org [https://matrix.to/#/#science-space:matrix.org]

A place to discuss and share content about what may or may not be, and why it is so.

Rules

The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.

1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.

A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.

B. No illegal content.

C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.

D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.

E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.

2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won’t

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
