  2. I wasn't sure where to post this question and I wasn't sure the best " Title " You know when you go to pick up a bag that you think is full/heavy and it's empty and there is that weird sensation. What exactly is happening in that instant? I went to pick up a bag and thought it was my fast food and it was empty and that little " jolt " feeling happened. I find this very interesting. It's like in an instant your body prepares for the item your going to pick up.. I'd love to know more about what is happening

  3. Hello. We would like to present you our comic project, which has quite a serious background. It refers to the field of linguistics, an area in which innovation is usually nonsense. Nevertheless, the invention of new languages, still belongs to the field of innovation. Comrade and I created a new artificial language (iffuty.ga) called IFFUTY LANGUAGE (the word "iffits" means "stone", from the popular saying in the southern countries similar to the Russian "just like an egg": "just like a stone"). The language is based on a slightly modified Basic English dictionary. There is no punctuation in the language (except the point), there is only one form of the word tha…

    Hi Everyone, I had tourette syndrome. It was really really bad. I became unemployed for a while because of it. I went to a psychiatrist and a therapist, and took medicine, and it did nothing. Then, I had sex, and it is completely gone now. I also was going through severe pain. After having sex, it is almost completely gone, now.

    I wasn't sure which category to put this under. So I put it here. As the title says, I have smashed fossil fuels. It is an idea I came up with about 20 years ago. Would you like to hear about it? Are you willing to walk through hell to hear the solution? Because you're going to have to. The reason for that being that chances are you are too invested in the system in which you became all scientific to want change to happen to that system. I brought this subject up to somebody at the political forum. He along with everybody else were doubters. But he was the only one who was willing to send me a PM for me to tell them where to go to see the information about…

  6. Hi Im working on an experiment to test the validity of a specific equipment. For that, I need polyester microparticles, which are irregularly shaped, in a range of 1-300 um, with about 8 different sample sizes. Also I don't need that much of it, roughly 2grams per sample size. Anyone knows any sites that is able to help produce these microparticles or a vendor that deals with this? Any help is appreciated & thx for reading :D BTW if any mods out there feel free tellme if this is in the wrong place to post this. I couldn't find other places which I can post this in.

    I don't have a degree. I just brainstormed this privately.. Previous brainstorming was locked: (UbuntuForums, Smart Videogames) Page three was interesting. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2424256&page=3 Summary: There may be shared mechanical properties of biological pathways and other "pathways" such as my "informational pathways." Their apprehension might be more convenient with certain visualizations. Information flow innovations might protect humanity's social progress. Start graphing information flow! One day, I was imagining possible biological pathways for certain hormones, and I found that certain visualizations profoundly …

  8. According to many sources, the ultimate compression strength of human femurs along its long axis (vertically) is 205 mpa or 29700 psi. I tried to convert 205 mpa to kg/cm² and the result is 205 mpa is equal to 2090.41824 kg/cm². So, I think the maximum weight that a human femur can support vertically before breaking is 2 tonnes. Isn't it? But with different method of calculation, I got a drastically different answer. The maximum diameter of human femurs is 3 cm and some exceeded 3 cm by 5 mm or more especially in weightlifters. So I followed this calculation from https://openoregon.pressbooks.pub/bodyphysics/chapter/stress-and-strain-on-the-body/. First we divide the…

    Hi, I've been searching online but have not managed to find an answer to my question (most likely due using search terms that lead to unrelated answers). When using "which" in the the case of: Rule 2b. Which introduces a nonessential clause (also known as a nonrestrictive or nondefining clause), which adds supplementary information. Example: The product claiming "all natural ingredients," which appeared in the Sunday newspaper, is on sale. The product is already identified. Therefore, which appeared in the Sunday newspaper is a nonessential clause containing additional, but not essential, information. In this usage of "which", are there any d…

    I need to run a gel for 2 hours at constant 23W until the voltage reaches 3000V. After a few trials it reaches 3000V in 50 minutes and 23W drops to 3W. Are there any limits or parameters that I can set up on the electric source in order for it to run longer? Also will it affect my gel if I keep it running after it reaches 3000V at 3-4W ? After I image the gel my bands are not fully separated.

  12. I have a hard time getting my head around the space that everything occupies, if it does, somehow, go on forever, which I feel is impossible, how can anything have come into existence at a certain point in infinite space where there isn't a reference point?, infinity doesn't make sense. And then again, if the space we occupy IS finite, how can that be possible?, a finite boundary means there is a boundary, but boundaries have two sides to them.

    Thoughts about a modernized oboe da caccia with my even oboe fingerings. The range competes with the cor anglais. The very distinctive sound makes the oboe da caccia useful, to be kept. If it results from huge losses at the body, as I believe, these must be kept or reproduced otherwise. I wish a low Bb despite old scores write to C. Some orchestras play a semitone lower the baroque scores. Playing the same scores on all saxophones is also very convenient, so the oboe family should copy it. A body straight at the five lowest tone holes eases my even oboe fingerings. All known historical shapes were straight at the lower end. A low joint could be assembled th…

    Can a list of all the essentials needed, including necessary conditions for creating every thing lead to the discovery of creation in numerical order and time, and predictions of future creations. This is equivalent to producing the periodic table which has led to many discoveries.

    Hi, got a query, I remember reading about two types of energy a while ago, and I can't find them anywhere. I'm not even sure if I imagined them or not. All I get from web searches are different types of fusion, renewable energy or energy companies. Can anybody tell me the names of them please, sorry for poor descriptions, 1) apparently if you can squeeze water through a really tiny space it will produce electricity? 2) this one involves vibrating an atom, I think, to produce electricity? again, sorry for really rubbish descriptions but that's all I can remember, that's why I was searching for them. Was going to post in news. The second on…

  19. I'm curious about word inflections. I think that's the term. Have you heard the KraftWerk line, "When I press a special key, it plays a little melody." (I guess you'd call it a line rather than a lyric, since it's spoken and not sung). The first part goes up in tonal frequency, and the second part continues further on up the scale before the last word which is way back down the low tonal scale. It's like the first part sets one up for 'a surprise', the second continues on up towards a tonal climax, and the 'little novel' ends with a tonal 'crash' or anticlimax. A sentence like, "When I go to the store, I usually find what I need." follows a similar but differen…

  20. I am in academic research but also like to collect vintage scientific equipment and parts from back in the day. I bought one item a couple years ago which has been on the shelf in my office ever since. It is in a nice wooden box so it looks nice even though I have no idea what it is. The logo on the front of the box reads "Advanced Metals Research Corp". Attached are pictures of the contents of the box. Anyone recognize this?

  21. Yes. Theories are interpretations of experimental/observational evidence. The experiment can't be wrong, but the interpretation can. That is why theories are never proven.

    I moved into my house in the suburbs of Myrtle Beach, SC almost five years ago and really have enjoyed the milder winters, but several times over the past 4 years I have had one particular shrub die off unexpectedly. At first I did not think too much of it, until I caught a neighbor at the edge of my yard with a gallon bottle of Round Up with a sprayer wand. I confronted him and asked what he was doing and he made a lame excuse that he was spraying for weeds in his front yard. He left quickly and went back into his house. He passed away two years ago and I thought it was over. Wrong, although I have helped his widow many times in the past two years, I just had another o…

  23. I’m looking for an amateur blog online that talks postulates a future/sci-fi tech/science/Idea/Concept in the style of an “of the Week” feature. I already watch Isaac Arthur but I want something I can read. It doesn’t necessarily have to be in English (I can translate it), it just has to be ongoing as of now, consistent and creative. Some ideas can be broad; others unique and specific. Every week at the least.
