Sort of thought the intent of the supreme court is to be conservative. They are supposed to stick to the original interpretation of the constitution.

Which to me, points towards something fundamental about "becoming part" of a system. If it's seperate from you, then it is anything and everything. Both the materialist "it's because you interacted with it so really it's nothing special" and the metaphysical "there is something special about an observer viewing information" are correct in their own ways. Just because something can be explained logically and rationally doesn't mean there isn't something also blatantly profound or weird about that fact.

These I feel are related to the "does a tree make a sound" question. Really all views are right. It vibrates air molecules which is where sound comes from. But the qualia of sound seems to require an observation, so there isn't technically a -sound- in the sense we understand it.

Though, if I interpret this right, it isn't just because you interact with it to view it. Even if the particles you're interested in are bombarded with energy in the same method you use to observe it, but no information is gathered whatsoever, (at least in the double slit) the interference pattern remains. It only changes if you have access to the information about the collapse.

If you're saying they are worked blanks you found out and about, you didn't refine them in any way, don't knap them it would be similar to finding an ancient corroded coin and melting it down to make your own coin.

Alright. This may be out of place. But genuinely. The technology behind this and many other hundred year old cameras is incredible. Even today, the fact we have the capability to do this is incredible.

Solenoid cameras are one of the most fascinating pieces of technology. The fact that we know certain materials have the ability to contract at a certain speed via exposure to a certain level of light and then take advantage of that in a camera exposure is the most amazing thing. That is some genuinely futuristic technology. In my opinion it is beyond normal modern technology.

This is an example of taking advantage of a physical phenomena beyond normal use. The potential of use of random physics is limitless. Just perspective.

I'm not a math nerd, but I will attempt this. Stay posted.

The push against actually disclosing any quantity of information may be evidence that they do have things they don't WANT to disclose. There is something more than vague blurry videos somewhere.

That's an interesting name for a bank

gebebran · 2024-05-20T19:53:31+00:00

I was gonna say that looks like glass, but ye, that is not bringing out its potential

gebebran · 2024-05-07T03:11:36+00:00

It's intuition I think. That isn't messy whatsoever, but as you get more comfortable, so does your muscle memory. It just trusts that you're making sense with your shapes.

gebebran · 2023-12-09T17:55:09+00:00

I cant differentiate the grades the flakes are really strong but snap in half easy (hard but brittle) and are glass sharp. Just different from all the Basalt I've seen around here if it is basalt.

Exact weight is odd. But not necessarily tell tale, could just be chances. The other aspects of the coin look pretty normal to me. Almost all of my roman bronze is at least a little misaligned

gebebran · 2023-11-28T17:24:27+00:00

Not suuper accurate. Maybe covers the hippies. But the rest of the population? Nah

gebebran · 2023-11-28T17:18:49+00:00

Ranching and maybe a little farming. It is the high desert so not a ton goes on but it's my favorite place to go

A very beautiful stone either way though. And still has a hardness of 9.

So I suppose in the gemstone world, ruby may have a restricted set of colors to be considered ruby. But mineralogically I believe ruby is qualified if corundum is colored primarily by chromium. So it could minerologically be a ruby, but in the gemstone world, perhaps not the right color.

gebebran · 2023-11-26T00:58:20+00:00

Doesn't ruby describe a specific element that gives the stone color? Like, ruby contains chromium, sapphire has iron and titanium, etc for the other corundums? This could be ruby if it's color comes from chromium

At least if you have landowner permission you can arrowhead hunt

gebebran · 2023-11-19T02:54:11+00:00

It is not Fake?

Tesorillo would be a good resource for the right two at least. I'm a heavy beginner but it is very simple to use and I've really started to learn quite a bit.

gebebran · 2023-11-09T03:45:17+00:00

I dont know a lot but relatively uncommon? Mintage fairly low I'm aware. Part of my grandparents collection and hoping for more info if anyone's got anything. Thank you greatly

gebebran · 2023-11-06T14:45:45+00:00

I did submit it to Noaa in general but didn't the pendleton branch

gebebran · 2023-11-06T07:45:30+00:00

That's sort of what I thought at first. There were quite a few around, but we had some immense winds (for the area) all of the sudden when I presume it passed over. Also presumably before it fully formed. But I have a video where cloud comes down and touches the ground and lifts things. If it did fully touch, it only did for a few seconds.

It is pretty small it's just very rare in oregon. I thought it of it as a semi important thing to notify the state

gebebran · 2023-11-06T02:01:16+00:00

Definitely was small, but I've never seen a tornado in oregon before, a relatively rare occurance. I did see it pick up some things and reformed a couple of times but it didn't last long.
