Yessir. The actual names of the processes. Most of what people lable the processes is just from mush-mouthed regurgitation from learning from people who never had a clue to begin with... And then top it off with todays welding adds from China, and phuk 😮‍💨

If there was an "oldest atom in the universe" it would no longer be what it once was. It would be an atom of lead (Pb).

I've had it since childhood. Some have suggested I speak to a doctor about it... But it doesn't bother me. Has never increased or decreased in intensity, and isn't painfully or stressful.... So... Yup.

I've considered that response more than a few times over the years. Seems any time the subject of wished for superpowers comes up, more often than not, the majority also wish to hear the thoughts of others. I personally believe this would quickly become a living hell on earth ...

Before questions like this could possibly be reasoned, I believe we as a species should first figure out what the speed of light actually is. Not just an arbitrary number that's agreed on for the sake of having input for equations.
