No, but thank you though.

Eh, I'd say willingly believing obvious Russian Propaganda, and then even going so far as to say, *What's wrong with Russia? They aren't our enemy," in an attempt excuse their gullibility, makes them weird.

Yes, I have had this conversation with obviously gullible people here on Lemmy over the past year. I remember some guy saying how Tim Pool is such an intellectual. How he used to be this super liberal guy from Vice News until he saw the "truth" and became a ~~hardcore Alt-Right nutjob~~ staunch conservative.

Hundreds TO thousands. And crazy people.

Hell, look at the Arlington Cemetery worker that is scared to press charges because of the threats of crazy people. You tell people that REAL LIFE (descendants of) NAZI'S exist down the street and who the fuck knows what they'll do. People can be monstrous, especially so when you give them a reason to despise/fear/be enraged at someone else.

Mate, you be huffing so much of that Fox News, you done lost the plot. Your a conservative think-tanks favorite sort of stupid - easily swayed by fear and rage, moldable to be whatever zealot they need, and able to parrot a talking point without actually knowing what your talking about. Your a sheep brother. Baa! Lol

Remember, nows not the time to talk about gun rights. Thoughts and prayers....unless this was a foreign minority, in which case we need to be enraged and angry about how immigrants are ruining this country. You know the ol' song and dance.

I'm the primary cook in my family, and my wife loves it. But she also is a fantastic sous chef. She helps me out with everything.

It's awesome having an extra set of hands in the kitchen and is also great bonding time.

I dunno mate...at least a sperm is capable of impregnating a woman.

Fascinating read. Several scientists lost their jobs downplaying how bad of an idea this was...

What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall at their engineering meetings...it's gotta be a somber affair at this point.

Bet your the kinda guy to show up and yell "White Lives Matter" at a BLM protest.

I can have my own chemist? I can keep them?

I found out that it's caffeine. I always thought i just naturally wanted to stay up until 2:30am, and then be okay waking at 6am for work.

Turns out that when I drink even a single cup of coffee, it totally fucks up the thing in my brain that tells me I'm tired.

So I started the lengthy process of cutting out all coffee.....and after a week or so...holy shit...I was EXHAUSTED by 9:30pm. Like, I'd fall asleep in my computer chair at like 10:30. My sleep started to regulate. I felt so much better.

Like, you don't realize how much of your brain is operating in this hazy fog...until you've slept properly for a couple weeks. I could concentrate on things, I wasnt so lazy. I WANTED to do more things.

 

A University of Virginia professor believes he has discovered how to create a freeze-ray device, inspired by the Batman villain, Mr. Freeze. Rather than being a weapon, this device is intended to cool down electronics within spacecraft and high-altitude jets.

 

A tiny, hard-working bacterium -- which weighs one-trillionth of a gram -- may soon have a large influence on processing rare earth elements in an eco-friendly way.

"Traditional thermochemical methods for separating lanthanides are environmentally horrible," said Buz Barstow, assistant professor of biological and environmental engineering at Cornell, the corresponding author. "It's difficult to refine these elements. That's why we send rare earth elements offshore -- generally to China -- to process them."

 

Not sure how useful it is yet, but it sounds like with some AI and proper cameras you could use it to completely repair certain components. Theres something similar to this using electrochemical plating to repair microfractures throughout a component - only downside is that it takes like weeks to do it properly (I'll see if I can dig up the paper later)

 

Looking for some ideas for friends and coworkers. If anyone can think of anything cool, I'd love to see it.

 
 
 

The proposed fuel is not SAF, it's a combination of magnesium and hydrogen mixed with hydrocarbon fuel. It's estimated to give 8% more range over other existing aviation fuels.
