A positive personality defends people against fake news.

People with dark and negative personalities believe fake news more often than positive personalities. This is the thing, that psychologists found when they research what kind of personalities are the most vulnerable to fake news. Or is it that, those dark personalities just don't react to fake news? 

There is a possibility that dark personalities don't just react to lies that they see. So they don't mention if they see fake news. And the reason for that is maybe in their traumatic past. 

Maybe those dark personalities are afraid to tell if they see things like fake news. The reason for that is negative personalities afraid that if they are giving some negative feedback or simply saying that they don't believe something those people are closed away from their society. 

The thing is that many negative personalities are advancing when the person gets negative feedback. So that thing causes social apathy where the person would not ever react to lies and fake news. 

When all answers or attention that person gets is negative. That causes a situation where the person will not even want to tell about fake news or participate in discussions. The person will not even want to tell if they see lies or fake news.

So those people do not necessarily believe things that they see. They might not tell that they see lies in some text or video. Negative feedback about their attempt to get attention causes negative people don't even care to say anything if they see lies. 

The reason for that is maybe that people with dark personalities are lonely. They spend more time on the net. They have fewer discussion partners than positive people. 

And then another thing is that fake news is more often negative. So negative people are following negative news. And the reason for that is that people are searching for support for their way to see things. 

Fake news is offering lonely people the possibility to spend more time with things that are not true. But those things offer information that nobody knows first and better. 

When we think of negative personality, we must ask why people became negative. Maybe that thing explains why negative people believe lies more often than positive people. 

Or do they? Maybe the thing is that negative personalities are not saying so often if they see fake news or somebody tells lies in some discussion forum. The reason for that is that those people are afraid that they are closed away from that social network.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
