If you ever get a chance to get up close and personal to a Humboldt squid radula you’ll rethink that stance.

Just mollusk things. At least cephalopods tend to poop out of the back of their mantle. Sea slugs have gills ringing their anuses so they’re always breathing their own farts.

If failing to close a murder file impressed the police they’d be in a constant state of amazement. About half of homicides are solved and I’m sure premeditated murder outside of family is much much lower than that. 5 to 10 percent for organized crime/gangs for example.

I doubt there’s many here that are even interested in that format.

I didn’t watch the whole thing but his dismissal of uranium 233 as “hard” to turn into a bomb is flat out wrong. It has many of the properties of plutonium 239 and would be perfectly fine for an implosion fusion/fission device. You just need to chemically reprocess the fuel from a reactor to get it, just like they did with plutonium. The first Soviet fusion bomb was uranium 233 instead of plutonium for christ sakes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium-233

I dunno, Mali hasn’t been doing so hot. I’d be curious what the kidnappers that catch him would do with him though

Meddit is pretty high quality so it doesn’t surprise me. They don’t like too much shit posting by people without flair.

“Can’t have a meltdown when you’ve already melted the fuel” is pretty much the whole idea there.

You can’t stop decay heat. It’s just molton salt reactors can operate at much higher temperatures and if it loses active cooling passive cooling with just air and infrared radiation while the salt passively circulates could be enough.

Run low on water, stop reaction. Fission products keep getting hot even though reaction stopped. Not enough water to cool them off. Shit.

Doesn’t look like anything to me.

In this case it was a gps enabled citibike but that doesn’t mean he paid with a traceable credit card and since he dumped it in central park it’s not like they can suddenly id him on camera dumping it

He’s using subsonic ammo and maybe a homemade suppressor. The gun can’t cycle with that. That’s why he’s racking it by hand and why he left both shell casings and unfired cartridges behind (because he over racked it).

Our cops carry guns on their waist and sometimes pull them for traffic stops so no, you don’t go through your life without seeing a gun. As far as carrying goes, many places outlaw open carry and require concealed.

One thing that should scare the shit out of these fuckers is that nobody is blaming it on their political enemies. Both the left and the right secretly hope it was one of their guys that did this.

Mask, disappeared on a bicycle in the early morning hours? The likelihood of this remaining an unsolved murder is incredibly high unless the guy decides to announce why he did it

Yeah they were using vitamin e acetate as a thickener instead of vegetable glycol, which caused lipid (fat) pneumonia where the lungs aren’t producing enough surfactant to clear the oils that get trapped. My opinion on why is because they were using THC ethanol tincture which is cheap to produce but would require significant thickening. The vitamin e acetate was used for that.

There never was a popcorn lung outbreak in vapes. Lipid pneumonia is not popcorn lung. Freebase nicotine is water soluable so it’s always been dissolved with glycol. THC is fat soluable so it was what was causing the lipid pneumonia. Popcorn lung is a very specific disease caused by diacetyl and I’m unaware of any cases of that in vapes, none the less an outbreak. There was never going to be a lipid pneumonia with nicotine though, because nicotine does not dissolve in oil and we use vegetable glycol as a thickener because of that.

Popcorn lung was largely a concern for DIY vapes in the early days that used food additives haphazardly to create flavors. The dangers of diacetyl were recognized quite early though and folks made sure they weren’t using it.
