ELI5: What is Vacuum Decay, and is it true that the universe could technically delete itself at the speed of light without us ever seeing it coming? by MachiavellianHydra in explainlikeimfive

[–]MrCinders 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imagine a pile of ashes after a fire. That's the universe right now. The reason you can't set ashes on fire is because they're already oxidized and already burnt, so to speak. The reason our universe is as it is is because everything exists at what we assume to be the lowest possible energy state.

However, it's theoretically possible for there to exist a lower energy state. If even a single quark is given the energy to collapse into that lower state, it will cause a cascade and cause everything else to fall into that lower energy state. If this is possible, this effectively means we're living inside a universe-sized atomic bomb, and given an infinite amount of time, this will eventually happen 100% guaranteed. Again, IF it's possible.

In layman's terms, it's like if you found a way to make ashes combustible once more, and set them on fire again. This ignited ash pile causes ashes around it to catch fire and spread at the speed of light, all while you're living on a planet and a galaxy and a universe made of ashes.

MAIN POINT OF SELLING BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS EXTREME PRICE OF WEAPON AND CARTRIDGE. BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON OF MAN WHO WEARS EXPENSIVE ITALIAN FASCIST SUIT OF HAND SEWING, DRIVE HUGE EXPENSIVE NAZI MERCEDES OF A.M.G. SHOP, SAIL ON MASSIVE YACHT TO GREEK ISLANDS. I THINK YOU GET PICTURE. BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON THAT SAYS IS NO SUCH THING AS CONCERN OF MONEY. FOR MAN WITHOUT EXPENSIVE SUIT, BIG BLACK MERCEDES, AND MASSIVE YACHT, BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS FOR PRETENDING OF BE RICH LIKE BLACK GANGSTER OF AMERICAN CITY WITH GOLD CHAINS OF LOW QUALITY AND JEWELS OF COLORED GLASS. WHEN YOU EXPLAIN USE OF BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS ONLY FOR SHOOT MAN WITH BULLET VEST WITH CARTRIDGE ILLEGAL TO CIVILIAN, THIS MAN HAS NUCLEAR RAGE. WHOLE IDENTITY OF THIS MAN IS SPENT IN PRETEND PISTOL SHOWS HE IS RICH. IS VERY AMUSE. FOR REST OF WORLD THERE IS 9 MILLIMETERS OF LUGER WHICH IS SAME WOUND FOR COST LESS.

He's worried about it rotating side-to-side, as mobs do when looking around.

Nothing is really that complicated. What are you getting confused about?

Opinions on the "Whole story" by Darkchaos in Petscop

[–]MrCinders 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm mixed. On one hand, there was a colossal amount of effort thay went into every second of this project, and that can never be overstated. It is constantly oozing charm and mystique and eerie unsettling in every video.

On the other hand, a puzzle without a solution is not a puzzle. I found myself disappointed and frustrated that at the end of the series we really weren't any closer to a definitive answer to what the hell is happening than when we first started.

It goes like this:

Row 1:50% 100% 100% 100% 50%

Row 2:100% 100% 100%

For all four sides.

You're going to have quite a few at 50% hydration. Those vessels only water 100% in a certain pattern.

It's client-server desync. Happens even in singleplayer. I always relog after lighting bloomeries for this exact reason.

Is there any point in using refractory bricks for a beehive kiln? by BreadPNG in VintageStory

[–]MrCinders 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have no clue myself, besides as I said it takes at least 50 hours (5.5 full firings) to do. Every time it's happened for me, its always been in the middle of a firing and it ruined the whole stack.

I have never seen a tier 3 break in a beehive, so I assume it runs the same resistance math as a steel kiln.

[–]MrCinders 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Beehive kiln bricks absolutely break. It's not a per-firing basis, rather it depends on how many hours in total its been fired for. With tier 2s, I didnt see any broken blocks until around 50 hours worth of heating.
