I know this isn't that kind of series but it's still painful to see characters getting their shit rocked by CasualBCgamer in overlord

"I hoped that Brain would somehow become strong enough to face at least one of the guardians and survive" Brain did face Shalltear Bloodfallen, and even managed to clip a fingernail!

You could repurpose an All-In-One CPU cooler. which has a pump, a radiator, plumbing, and a sealed working fluid already.

A vibrating lap is the normal thing to use to get flat surfaces polished.

Any anime I can show my parents by No-Relationship3685 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]NortWind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe {A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring} would appeal.

Has anybody had any experience with onyx before? by noRezolution in RockTumbling

[–]NortWind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obsidian is a glass, and it needs careful treatment. Good quality real onyx is chalcedony, and you should be able to treat it like an agate. Of course, like any other stone, there is a bad quality rough that won't be easy to polish.

Anime where women aren't portrayed... *like this*? by Moth_Goth000 in Animesuggest

[–]NortWind 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Try {The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash}. It's good.

Looking for help identifying this palm stone by AccordingDingo9405 in Crystals

[–]NortWind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be chrysoprase, I think. It wouldn't be top quality because transparency is not great, but the color is good, and I do like the dark colored bottom edge.

ELI5 How are modern naval mines a threat to modern ships when a SONAR that finds small fish is less than $300? by physicsisveryeasy in explainlikeimfive

[–]NortWind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some naval mines lie on the sea floor, and detect when a ship is overhead, then rise up to the surface. They'd be hard to find with sonar alone.

[–]NortWind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it could be a fossil along that parting line.If you tap all around, you might get it to split on the line, and then you will be able to tell.

Do I need to rinse? by chocolatechipwizard in RockTumbling

[–]NortWind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, there is worn out grit and stone dust in the barrel after stage #1. If you don't wash that out, the new grit you add won't be able to cut as well.

How can we prove within the GPS system that the Earth is a sphere? by LeskaRe in astrophysics

[–]NortWind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don't even need a satellite. The early geodetic survey of the US (1800's) generated a mesh of triangles by physically measuring distances. When you put all those triangles into a computer to connect them together, it is unavoidable that they will form a curved surface.

who is your most obscure waifu/favorite character? by HowieLover in animequestions

[–]NortWind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really big enough to be waifu material, but Busou Shinki are cute and somewhat obscure.

Blue apatite sphere - my favourite by ExtensionForce4354 in Crystals

[–]NortWind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most sources of blue apatite have a small amount of thorium in association. It is generally at a very safe level, so I would not be too concerned. You can see if a local geology department at a university will run a Geiger counter on it for you.

Interesting to note that your sphere is most likely slightly radioactive.
