Life is just one big fight against entropy

[-] SmoothOperator@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago

Local entropy, that is. At a global scale, life increases entropy.

[-] Onyxonblack@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Yep, and life basically is entropy; or entropy causes life, the great mixing!

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Wait, it's all entropy?

Always has been 👨‍🚀🔫👨‍🚀

Bugs and trash are bad entropy, food and people are good entropy. Until people look like bugs and trash, then you do fascism.

Life is an orderly system of producing disorder

At a global scale, everything increases entropy

[-] SmoothOperator@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Well, nothing increases it, but aren't there contexts where it is unchanged? Vacuum and single isolated particles don't increase entropy I suppose.

Just adding energy into the system.

[-] einfach_orangensaft@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

i misread that in my first reply, my adding energy (low entropy) to my high entropy system i stay alive

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 37 points 1 year ago

You fool, you utter buffoon, by doing this you increase entropy even more!

(and by "doing this" I mean doing literally anything)

[-] supernicepojo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Nonsense, entropy is a zero sum game…

[-] Lauchmelder@feddit.org 2 points 11 months ago

Hence why I never tidied up my room as a child. My mom is in on it

[-] T156@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

Only sometimes. Other times, you want to add extra entropy, so you can have a nice hot dinner.

[-] einfach_orangensaft@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

i would ague that that would actually be low entropy, cuz the amount of heat energy (high entropy) in the meal is quite low compared to the chemical energy it holds (low entropy), hence overall a hot meal is still low in entropy, and by ingesting it i transfer its low entropy into my system (body)
