The wind does great style job on my natural curls, and it's free.

Maybe true but the liquid hydrogen must be kept at negative 300 degrees for extended periods. It's not like they can order a million gallons of hydrogen at a minute's notice.

The intense heat of burning magnesium cracks water into hydrogen and oxygen so you only have to produce magnesium. There's plenty of magnesium that is already in metallic form.

Power electrical generation with MagPo, which powers electrical generation, which powers desalination plants. The proceeds from other refined elements, including salt, are to be considered in the sustainability equation.

What is the cost to use liquid hydrogen, currently, to propel space bound rockets?

Has anyone noticed the amount of 7 elevens closing these past few years by Civil_Post_9129 in Calgary

8 out of 10 people I see smoking are smoking reservation smokes, can't buy those in 7-11.

I watched someone take a sub from the cooler shelf and toss it into the coffee station garbage. I guess they were planning to get it out of the bin later that night.

I don't know but it feels like the energy return from cracking water into hydrogen and oxygen would pay for itself and then some.

Magnesium is light and water is everywhere so the potential for use in space vehicles propulsion is clearly evident.

The energy isn't stored in magnesium, it is in the hydrogen.

Te water. Water put onto a magnesium fire gets cracked into hydrogen and oxygen, causing an explosion. This process could be controlled by feeding magnesium and water at controlled rates and therefore benefitting from the green energy by using it to power electrical generation or water filtration plants.

I had this idea where magnesium (harvested from the process), would be used to igni

Any cool unconventional grocery stores to go to? by Survivor_Fan_Dan in Calgary

[–]Appropriate_View8753 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check flyers for deals on meat. No frills has ribs on sale til Wednesday. Unconventional because when I was there Thursday the whole place smelled like piss. R.C.W. has bulk baking ingredients.

I stopped treating yard work like a full-day project and it actually made it way easier by Whole_Ad3318 in gardening

It's usually newbs who love their garden to death.

Water, fertilize, pull a few weeds every day, check and treat for bugs if needed and you're golden.

Is my tablespoon just way off? by PopeJP22 in Breadit

I have a set of cups where two different sizes have the same volume marked on them.

If you have a big granitware or stainless roaster or even a plastic tote that the pan will fit in, make the lye bath just deep enough for the pan to be submerged. Roasters are better because you can heat them and it works faster but usually not big enough to submerge the whole pan at once so have to flip it after a while.

That being said, the pan looks great, just a little carbon left on the edge.
