I think that fine documentary, “The Core”, explained how to deal with this issue.
Just drill so fast you’re basically in a freefall to the center of the earth, avoid the giant diamonds, and just detonate a few nukes in sequence around the core right?
Easy!
All those months of digging holes in the backyard as a child are finally coming to fruition
We need to go deeper
That’s what she said
Deeper exile
Pretty sure you need a black guy sacrifice himself too, but that’s the gist of it, yeah.

This is normal apparently so not the end of the world.

So your source… And the one that got the most upvotes against a written article that is based on articles written by actual scientists… is TikTok ADHD girl who has what qualifications?
Cause you know… https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/25/world/earth-core-turning-scli-scn-intl/index.html which is linked in another comment around the same time this one was created… cites at least 3 separate people who claim that the data is sound.
Your girl even admits we know very little about the core of our planet itself and yet can resoundingly claim that she’s right?
Her qualifications:
- Produced 3 Vox science+politics explainer shows, including Emmy-nominated “Explained” on Netflix
- …and hosted 2 of those shows
- Selected by IBM to do an explainer on quantum computing
- Selected by Helion to do an explainer on fusion
- Selected by Argonne National Laboratory to cover a nuclear waste recycling program
If you watched the video and read the article, you know that what’s in dispute is not the data itself, but rather how it’s presented. In a Hermes Conrad, “technically correct” kind of way, the headline “the Earth’s core has stopped and may be reversing direction” is not objectively wrong, but it’s only true with respect to a reference frame that most laypeople would not immediately assume.
As demonstrated in the OP, most people when they hear “the core has stopped spinning”, assume that means relative to the Earth’s axis, which is not true. The core, along with the rest of the Earth, is still spinning around the axis just fine. The core is just doing it less quickly than the rest of the Earth now. Which is like… Did you even know that the core was previously spinning faster than the rest of the Earth?
So nothing related to earth sciences at all… Thanks! I’ll trust the people who are actually specialized scientists that are quoted in the article then.
The scientists didn’t pick the headline. An editor – who I assure you knows nothing about Earth sciences – picked it, for maximum clickbait.
I read the article. Anyone who just reads headlines these days are more or less dumb. You should know I read it since I could tell you that scientists were quoted in the article… But I guess that went over your head. The point is ultimately that youtube shorts isn’t an accurate rebuttal to anything unless the person in the video is a direct source… And in this case you’ve validated they’re not.
Sure thing homie. I just wanted to clear up a common misconception. But if you wanna take a stand about properly citing first-party sources in memes@lemmy.ml, then you do you I guess.
See… if you actually read my comment. It was a complaint that people upvoted a tiktok like video rather than an actual article that contained proper resources. Pointing out that people would rather prefer a bubbly personality rather than actually understanding it.
But you know… you do you I guess.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
The Earth’s core is not reversing direction

No! No! No! You got it all wrong!
Relative to the mantle it stopped spinning! Like when the earth spins around itself in 24 hours it’s the mantle spinning. Now the core takes 24 hours to spin around itself, while it used to take like 23:50.
It’s like if you’re in a car on the highway and you’re going 80 and someone next to you is going 82 and then suddenly 80 and you assume that they are parking.
Must be the poles of the earth reversing as Edgar Cayce predicted.
Clinton actually said “sexual relations” I think rather than innercores
The saddest part about me remembering this is because it was parodied by family guy using Quagmire as Bill.
“My fellow Americans. I did have sexual relations with that woman. I gigoogitied her geschmoigedy with my googhis. And I’m sorry.”
PLEASE tell me there is a community for this specific genre of memes (unrelated text circled with a picture of something that sounds similar). I require more °-°
Funny meme? Funny at least, but what’s up with Clinton?
Inner cores = intercourse
But as another commenter state, Clinton said he never had sexual relations, not intercourse.
Where there was a big lead up with “sexual relations” defined as intercourse.
Bill did not legally lie. Given a mountain of context, he was telling the truth. But the prosecutors were playing for TV clips, not for the case.
Oh, how I miss the days when the president getting a blow job from an intern was the big news.
Bruh, Biden getting sucked off by anyone would be world news
What do you mean? The Trump fans tell me all the time that he’s banging his granddaughter.
(/s for the oblivious)
I don’t buy it. Probably just creepily physically restrains her whilst forcibly sniffing her hair and telling her how beautiful she is.
Yeah. Grandfathers aren’t supposed to hug their grandkids, after all.
“I did not have sexual… relations … with that woman.” ?? I honestly have no frickin clue.
I met Monica Lewinsky in London once. I didn’t recognise her until she paid with a card without a signature and I had to ask for photo ID and I was like ohhhhhhhh.
