Lenovo ThinkPhone. I like it. Very tough, fast, and good battery life.

I’m only 29 but if I think back to being 20, I was not the same person. I don’t know your life, but responsibility piles on fast.

You still have a few years.

That explains why easy jet asked if I wanted to move to an exit row. I thought I just got lucky.

The coast is just as bad. I’ve done the east arkansas to new Orleans drive. Never again.

Maybe they don’t care about the pool. Fuck an hoa

I had a Mazda MX-6 as my first car. Not super rare but I’ve only ever seen 2 other ones.

Currently I have an 09 Lexus GS460. Only 1600 total built and only 56 in 2009 so it’s exceptionally rare but no one cares.

Turns out a $65000 V8 sedan didn’t sell well when gas was $4/gal and the economy was in shambles.

Not to mention that they make helium leak detectors. I’m not an expert but I built a helium tight 60000psi system a couple weeks ago first try. Granted it didn’t have to survive a trip on a rocket.

9mm, safety, always off.

It is in the us. Imperial gallons are bigger than us gallons for some reason.

I am guessing the reason it’s done has something to do with mining and trying to solve material density problems.

This is definitely part of it. Oil companies have labs that run samples all day every day to study the density and porosity of rocks to see how much oil or gas they could hold when they’re trying to find new areas to drill.

Most of what I’m familiar with is research labs at universities where they are studying it to simulate tiny earthquakes. It’s just pure research to learn more about how the earth functions as a system. All rocks are different and all situations are different so the more data you collect the more you can understand exactly what happened during an earthquake and why. Maybe it can lead to better earthquake prediction or it can let us use those earthquakes to know more about the structure of the earth.

Sort of. I work closely with geophysics in the rock mechanics world. I don’t personally know if any machines that create folds at large scale due to the heat and pressure required but rock deformation is a big thing they do. I’ve built a few machines that do this.

Small scale experiments at the temperatures and pressures required are done using diamond anvils at extreme pressure and sometimes with laser heating.

Larger scale is done with giant hydraulic presses called triaxes that use confining pressures up to the Gigapascal level.

Me too :( love the state. Hate the government.

Still 3-5% more possible buyers for your car by the logic I guess. Not that I agree with the system but marketing is fucked.

Gangnam Style

Looks like it, doesn’t it :)

Onlinepersona fully endorses this comment.

I like the malicious vibes.

That’s probably shop rate. Like paying a mechanic. Shop rate for me is $160 but I don’t get nearly that, also covers machines, rent, etc.

Oof
