there’s nothing wrong with 3rd party batteries, if it’s worn down so badly that it no longer does the thing that it is supposed to then replace it, idk why it’s a question. I replace mine when they’re at 60% of original capacity

Your best bet is to just not engage with them when topics like that come up

real soon it will include any topic

if sun was orange, it wouldn’t be orange, it would be just precieved as regular white light, and new-orange would be even more oranger than what we know today

you need really spicy photons for activation to happen

in space you also have protons some with relatively high energy. most of these come from solar wind and also can cause activation

if everything else fails add matrix account to your profile (to have another communication option) and reach out to admin of your instance

dude, people join irl face to face cults, of course they do

in this economy?

apparently ww1 era british soldiers figured out that cordite works like amyl but shittier (more specifically, nitroglycerin part) https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/abaf/009c8713aadd8accbb03b2b40a93b5c3c77a.pdf

smokeless powder is, sort of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitroglycerin#Industrial_exposure

it’s hacky and wrong. or you could use different hardware, maybe from competition, because result isn’t worth electricity it used

gpus as used for genai aren’t really suitable for normal loads like aerodynamic simulations, genai uses low precision data like fp8, fp4, blackwells and such are optimized for it so hard that you can’t really do anything else on this thing

Tax reasons perhaps? In some countries ethanol with (certain kinds of) perfume mix can be taxed as denatured alcohol, otherwise some other kind of denaturant would be needed

yes you can do it and it’s so easy it sometimes happens accidentally https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_memory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_in_the_mall_technique

strictly speaking you don’t need machines for it but if there is any that would be rightwing propaganda enterprise

btw did you know that zucc studied psychology? and that research on this would be maybe not the hottest shit by the time he studied, but at least well disseminated?

if your brain does that without drugs i’d suggest you check it with a neurologist because it’s not usual. maybe there will be some new kind of epilepsy named after you

I have excellent vision normally and don’t need glasses, I can see things from extremely fair away and my eyes have a wide FOV (my peripheral is great)

it sounds a lot like psychedelics and not any usual human experience

Radio transmission doesn’t require state-level capacity (yes there are other barriers like cost or skill) and waves don’t care about borders. Receiving foreign radio was a big thing and it doesn’t require special equipment

i think there is, but i don’t want to spread associated cognitohazard

i’m saying that what you see as generational divide can be partially also class divide

have you considered that there are people your age that were broke as kids, or non-westerners, that also don’t remember pokemon red/blue
