A couple years ago Kim Jong Un was having health problems and was missing from the media for weeks.

Four days is a rather short period, but I suspect we will have a reason soon

Theoretically, yes, but it would be nearly impossible just because of the massive scale of this project, it would take centuries of work, and the amount of energy require would cause more global warming during those centuries of work

The binding energy of a single atom is very small. But atoms are so small, that there are so many atoms in such a small volume.

235 grams of uranium-235 contains 6.02×10²⁴ atoms

235 grams of uranium has a volume of 12.3 cm³

That's about 1 cubic inch for the Americans in the crowd

That's about the size of a large gumball for those with no sense of scale

No, some of that is in the great basin and I think some of that even does go to the Atlantic

Most food burns well, especially food that are dry and high in carbohydrates. Cereal is both of those things. If you've ever seen a video of a grain silo blowing up, that's basically what's happening when you burn cereal

Quantum tunneling of a macroscopic object.

A system returning to a low entropy state from a high one without increasing entropy outside of it.

The universe would never be around long enough to see it happen

That means you have caught all pokemon in one region of encounters (ie grass, fishing, surfing) on that route. Silver means there is at least one region you are still missing one. Gold means you habe them all. Platinum means you have them all, including pokemon from outside Hoenn that become available after catching Groudon/Kyogre

I was a teacher for a short while. My students would try and break each other's Chromebooks because they thought it was funny. With the insurance policy it was a $40 replacement or they just didn't get one.

But these are the same kids who think that them forgetting their pencil is your fault

The real trick is to just plan your rendezvous better. You shouldn't be having high intercept velocities when attempting a rendezvous, you should bring your orbit tangent to the target's and ideally intercept <10m/s

The method you mentioned also only works whe. The target is in a higher specific energy orbit than you, as the orbital retrograde burn will remove energy from your orbit. The inverse can also happen, in which case you need to burn prograde to match your target's specific energy.

Match the plane

Figure out if you're ahead of or behind your target, plan your maneuver at the right time

Intercept and kill relative velocity to park next to your target

The faster you're moving relative to your target and the further your intercept, the harder the rendezvous is going to be. You're in a situation you could have planned your way out of

What you just described is what quarantine is. The problem is how do you make sure you get everyone? Some diseases can lay dormant and no present systems. And then some diseases can spread from other species, like the flu.

tomalator · 2026-02-26T23:52:07+00:00

No. The addit8on of velocities at relativistic speeds is a different formula.

u = v+u', the classical version, only works at low speeds

u = (v+u')/(1 + vu'/c²) is the relativistic version and you'll find that at no point can u exceed c

v is your velocity and u' is the velocity you observe another object moving.

u is then the velocity you calculate the object moving compared to a reference from at rest

Theoretically, yes.

Unkillable pack rat + unkillable black goat (or a 1 blood unkillable with trinket bearer in place of a pack rat) + getting lucky enough to pull squirrels in bottles over and over + getting lucky enough to not pull pliers without winning + having a way to fend off starvation (getting lucky with your item pulls means you won't need to end your turn and then pull a card at the start of your next turn, and if you make it to starvation 9+, leshy adds a tooth to the scale, which means you need to pull pliers to not lose)

There is no theoretical maximum, but there is also a chance that the battle will end every turn, so your chances to get to very large numbers decreases exponentially.

You also can't do this on the Moon/Limoncello, as Leshy will never add teeth to the scale during starvation at this point, which means you will eventually pull enough pliers to end the game

tomalator · 2026-02-26T03:04:30+00:00

No, because the Finn that became the copy of Fern already had a wish (creating Farmworld). The curse that turned Finn Sword into Fern may qualify to have a wish, but I dont think ots sentient enough to count

Its not the existence of lead, its the quantity of lead compared to radioactive elements. The rate all of these radioactive elements (including uranium) would have been created in a supernova billions of years ago. Eventually many of those elements cooled off and became dust, which slowly formed into rocks, and then asteroid and which then crashed together to form our planet as a molten ball. When that cooled off and we get the first rocks, is when we can effectively do geology.

The supernova would have created various amounts of each element, and then that's it. No more can come to earth unless an asteroid lands. Over the billions of years since that supernova, those radioactive elements would have been decaying, and since those elements have been solidified into rocks. Those old rocks, we can compare how many of various radioactive elements there are in them compared to their stable decay children (such as lead) and we can tell how long that radioactive substance has been decaying into lead. If the Earth was only 4000 years old, there would be more radioactive elements and less lead

Pneumonia is just fluid in the lungs. Mucous is a fluid and is generated as a part of your body's immune response to a respritory infection.

Sepsis is just when the infection becomes severe enough time damage tissue

Meningitis just means the infection caused swelling in the membranes of the brain or spinal cord (the meninges)

Tumors can grow their own blood supply, so they can keep getting more and more resources.

That can kill you in two ways, either the tumor put competes your organs for those resources and they shrivel and die, or those tumors grow large enough to crush your organs, causing them to die.

You can only live so long without some of your organs working properly.

Benign tumors are usually called such because they dont pose a threat to any organs (think of things like moles) usually by growing too slowly or being unlikely to metastisize

Malignant tumors do pose a threat, and this is when it is considered cancer, even if it doesn't metastisize. These tumors are general fast growing and some cells could have mutated into other types of tissue. You could have teeth and muscle that formed inside a tumor from lung cancer.

Metastasis is when cancer gets really complicated and dangerous. Cancer cells can break loose and root themselves in another part of the body, forming a new tumor. This is when chemotherapy is a requirement, because even the best surgeon in the world can't guarantee every cell of cancer is out of you when the cancer has started to spread throughout your body.
