Tall waves moving in slow motion

I guess that’s kind of to be expected when you have:

• Low gravity
• Low density ocean
• High density atmosphere

Huh, so it’s kind of like an inflatable module, but made of interlocking rigid panels? An interesting concept. I am undecided as to whether the increased volume would be worth the additional complexity.

Looks delicious! Would you be willing to give us a breakdown of the ingredients?

Instead of trying to prop open a wormhole with exotic matter, the authors add two extra physical fields to Einstein’s equations alongside gravity

Ah, so we’re replacing exotic matter with exotic fields :)

Abstract

Sulfur–sulfur bonds are ubiquitous across broad classes of natural products, peptides and proteins, drug molecules, and synthetic polymers and materials. The ability to make and break these bonds in a controlled manner is critical for their many scientific and technological applications. Here we report the discovery of an unusual S–S metathesis reaction of organic trisulfides. When exposed to certain polar aprotic solvents, trisulfides were found to undergo spontaneous metathesis, with the reaction equilibrium established in seconds in some cases. No exogenous reagents, heat, light or other stimuli were required to provoke this reaction. Furthermore, the trisulfide metathesis process can occur both inter- and intramolecularly. Understanding the scope and mechanism of this reaction enabled diverse applications of this chemistry in dynamic combinatorial library synthesis, the covalent modification of complex natural products, and S–S metathesis polymerization and depolymerization as a platform for chemically recyclable plastics.

Would y’all be able to cross-promo each other’s communities in the community info sidebar of each community? I think this would be mutually beneficial.

This is the way.

just cut the par-cooked noodles to fit

In that case, what do you do with the trimmings?

Or one of these blokes.

Can’t what?

Will it? You don’t have to set your own default language first? I guess that’s kind of useful, though it seems like it could be problematic.

Whoa. That is some serious SNOT.

“Your tauntaun will freeze before you reach the first marker!”

Ah, I see. In that case, you might want to add a bit more info on that. For a specific instances, people often have questions such as:

• Where is it hosted?
• Who are the admin team?
• What kinds content are allowed or prohibited?
• What is the funding model?

If we were to destroy everything orbiting earth today, we would probably be out of the Kessler Syndrome it would cause in about a decade.

Not if you include sats in GEO. While LEO is self-cleaning in the timespan of a few years, stuff in GEO will stay there for millennia.

Amazing stuff. I love mechanical LEGO computers.

This is the way.

If you don’t need the sealed box in mint condition, just buying the parts on Bricklink or wherever is way cheaper.

it was a huge pain

And happy pi day!
