Yeah, that’s why I love that fact too. Sending a rocket into space and landing on a tiny ball of rock was literally easier than pretending to do it.

Actually, the moon landing was faked but for realism purposes they filmed it on location.

Nah, the technology to fake the moon landing straight up didn’t exist in the 60s. There’s a really good video on youtube that goes over it but I can’t seem to find it right now. But basically, even though there were some nice techniques to make special effects for movies, they wouldn’t have worked for faking an actual moon landing.

You’d think so but colours are weird. Some of the ones we see aren’t ones that actually exist, they’re invented by our brains. Magenta for example doesn’t exist, there is no wavelength for it and because of the way our eyes detect light it should really be a shade of green. But our brain doesn’t like that and invents a brand new colour instead.

You can actually see it in modern times. The Himba tribe in Africa doesn’t have a concept of the colour blue. There’s not even a word for it, as far as they’re concerned blue is just a shade of green. To us it seems obvious, the sky is blue and the plants are green but to them it’s all different shades of green. It’s not a genetic thing, they’re seeing the exact same colours as anybody else, their culture just doesn’t distinguish between the two colours.

Tbf, that was wolf of wall street, it’s basically a three hour long line of cocaine.

It’s because it can cause confusion. The only difference between example.com/file.zip and example.com.file.zip is one uses a . and the other a / but both are valid domains. If somebody isn’t paying much attention or they don’t know much about domain names, they could click thinking to get a zip file from a legitimate site and end up going somewhere malicious instead. No other TLDs have this issue (well, I guess .com technically has it but who the hell is downloading and running com files these days) and they’re pretty much exclusively used for this reason so it’s a good idea to block them just to be safe.
