wtf are capithigny ? Don’t bother I don’t care.

2023 was the year the US finally destroyed all of its chemical weapons (www.vox.com)

The United States’s Chemical Warfare Service readied hundreds of thousands of mortar shells and artillery rounds filled with mustard gas in the 1940s. During the Cold War, even more lethal chemical weapons followed: artillery and rockets filled with VX and GB, better known as Sarin, nerve agents that, with as little as a few...

Thermal Destruction – uses the heat of the electrically heated containment vessel to deflagrate the munition and destroy the agent and energetics. The resulting gases are treated in an off-gas treatment system. The Static Detonation Chamber, or SDC, is an example of thermal destruction technology.

Should we expect more second hand solar panels on the market at lower prices because of this ? Seems obvious but what do I know ?

A_A ,
@A_A@lemmy.world avatar

Might be interesting for a “do it yourself” project, from someone after retirement who has enough land space. But only if the price is low enough.
New panels without installation goes for what now ? Maybe $1 or $2 per peek Watts ? I would say 10% to 20% of the new panel price would be interesting.

Wow !

Edit :
is “RTL” as descibed in the answer to my comment, by @AbouBenAdhem or is it as I guessed ? :

Resistor-transistor logic ( RTL ), sometimes also known as transistor-resistor logic ( TRL ), is a class of digital circuits built using resistors as the input network and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) as switching devices.

The metre was originally defined in 1791 (…) as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along a great circle, so the Earth’s circumference is approximately 40000 km.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre

The kilogram was originally defined in 1795 during the French Revolution as the mass of one litre (1/1000 m³) of water.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

… and the last major SI unit is the second which of course you know is (originally was) 1/86400 day.

Please notice about the Celsius scale : the second reference point isn’t a mixture of ice and salt but rather pure water freezing point.

Now how can we as naked humans develop technology to figure this out is something of historical proportion, that’s a quite amazing story !

…calendar with no leap year …

This would need the Earth to make one complete rotation around the Sun in an exact whole number of times it rotates around itself. …which is not the case right now and extremely difficult (meaning near impossible) to change.

…no daylight savings…

Okay but now we have a greater problem : we have to change (twice, a year) the time when business, school , stores etc… open and close, for it to be convenient with outside natural light. So, in my opinion, this is not an improvement.

@A_A@lemmy.world avatar

if you have both liquid and solid water at equilibrium then you have zero degrees Celsius. Pressure has minimal effects …at plus or minus 0.5 atmosphere. of course if you go to a hundred or a thousand atmosphere then there is an effect of pressure.
Small pieces of ice will equilibrate their temperature faster in water.
Surface tension has minimal effect on melting temperature unless you go to extremely small pieces of ice meaning less than one micron, …which is not possible to achieve anyway because such small ice pellet with fuse rapidly to form larger ones.

A_A , (edited )
@A_A@lemmy.world avatar

Yes a bucket of a mixture of small ice pellets, say a few millimeter size, plus water, (this bucket being enveloped with some insulation) would be a great zero degrees Celsius reference point.

if you want something more precise you can read this :
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius

… “the actual melting point of ice is very slightly (less than a thousandth of a degree) below 0 °C.” …

isotopic distribution of heavy and light elements in water also has a very slight effect on melting point. So, rainwater and water distilled from ocean will not melt at the (exact) same temperature.

See : Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water …wikipedia.org/…/Vienna_Standard_Mean_Ocean_Water

Now, about small particle fusing together this is true not only of ice but of any material.
it’s called sinteringand it is caused by diffusion and a lowering of the surface energy.
This process is faster when the material is near it’s melting temperature and faster yet if in contact with any miscible liquid phase.

Yes my post has more dislikes than your post. and I agree with your analysis of the situation.

On top of this I now realize I made a mistake on the method I used for this post. User here create troll categories because they suppose they would be identified to a category which they propose and they don’t want that. Finally, I now believe with you that this avenue is doomed.

On the other hand, I find a few comments and answers here quite funny 😋

Thanks for this. Anyway I notice I got zero upvote. So at this point, it doesn’t change much. (you got my upvote).

But I really do think it would be nice to have this ratio in society. I do believe woman are more peaceful. So I suppose it could make a more egalitarian world with less wars.

You may have heard of those societies where only woman can own houses and land. Those societies are very peaceful from documentaries I have watched.

I believe it was on Reddit or somewhere else there was this community where each post was for survey // polling. The way it worked is below the post you would upvote if you want to answer this or that. So each comment you upvote for each possible answer.
This is great because it is anonymous.
I don’t want in the future a user telling me “okay, you have this opinion because you are this or that”.

2023 SEPTEMBER 14 TECHNOLOGY
Slack Is Basically Facebook Now

Slack’s redesign suggests that keeping up with Slack is the only work worth doing.

By Ian Bogost

<a href=""></a>

“Oh,” I slacked my Atlantic colleagues earlier this week, beneath a screenshot of a pop-up note that Slack, the group-chat software we use, had presented to me moments earlier. “A fresh, more focused Slack,” it promised, or threatened. On my screen, the program’s interface was suddenly a Grimace-purple color. I sensed doom in this software update.

Slowly, over the days that followed, complaints about the new Slack started trickling into our chats. “folks I cannot handle this new version of slack and will be taking the rest of the month off,” one Atlantic staffer said. “I am reverting to sending physical memos on personal letterhead,” posted another. “all my slacks are: I hate the new slack,” slacked Adrienne LaFrance, the magazine’s executive editor. (Later on, she messaged me separately to see if I would write about Slack’s terrible new format.)

I agree the SRB was the start of the huge explosion that somehow involved liquid hydrogen. I was posting that example because I was replying to an example where it was gaseous hydrogen combustion and because for the plane in the post it is liquid hydrogen which is used.

I don’t mind talking to non-expert as long as they don’t believe they know what they don’t know and do not insist they know better when they don’t.

From your comment I don’t know what “ET” means but I suppose “SRB” is something like side booster rocket solid rocket booster (?) I am not an expert of the space shuttle so please tell me if it pleases you to do so.

A_A ,
@A_A@lemmy.world avatar

I want to apologize for posting that explosion image if maybe you were working on the space shuttle or close to people in there.

Many years ago I came to know an industry where accidental hydrogen explosions were to be described as “rapid oxidation events” (ROE) for insurance paperwork. Somehow writing the word “explosion” would have made insurance costs explode !
There are strong (& more) reasons to disbelive commercial transport projects involving hydrogen as energy source (energy vector).

Thanks for your time and explanations.
