lol, like digging for shit?
Basically, yes.
Look, it's fine to make mistakes; reformed newbies are very welcome around here. It's incredibly rude however to basically make an entire line of conversation worthless. It wastes everyone's time and is utterly counterproductive.
If you're so much of a coward that you can't stand to have people read what you wrote barely an hour ago, then
get out.

Yes, because attacking one of the more respected members of the community is a much better strategy. Watch out Stitch, have you met your match?

it's looking like an increasingly smart move to delete all one's own posts... it seems no one is safe

I'm not sure it's really fair to compare head-sized rocks to the fluid dynamics of an atmospheric system four times the size of earth.
Patterns are patterns; similar patterns are frequently formed by functionally similar processes, regardless of scale or material. I can't think of any larger or more fluid
stable hexagonal patterns in nature, so...

First of all, Saturn doesn't even have a surface, much less rock formations:
I'm vaguely curious how state transitions are gradual even under massive pressure. That's kind of off the subject, though.

You'd have better luck comparing a hurricane spinning in a regular shape, or looking at Jupiter's spot, or something.
Well, but none of those show stable polygonal artifacts.

All who criticize me for censoring the posts are proud of thierselfes.
I learned that self-pride is death.
So's false humility.
