they effectively are aws for older companies (which used them for databases) as i understand

also, uranium's half life is 700 million years, so we expect (207/235)*7.5 (of lead) + 7.5 (uranium) ~ 14.106382978723405 lump.

also, a lot of the helium produced will remain trapped inside (most heavy metal lumps act as sponges for little gasses). but 700 mil years is also a large amount of time, so much of it would diffuse out. I could checkup diffusion statistics for he d pb-u but i would have to probably do a double integral (as pb-u combination is not fixed, and we can not simply do the error function calculation), so skipping that. but it is safe to say that we will have a lump of ~50% U, 44% pb, and 6% He (by mass), and a significant amount of he will remain in

they made the money by having you create the account

I'm rolling my eyes

very true, me too.

but i can see oda coming up like - garp had to do and remain silent as a sword asset (may be sword was founded by him), and sword is indirectly affiliated to revolutionaries. Like he has to create a opposing faction within marines so that when the eventual war comes, sword will be against marines.

but yeah, he must have known something about all these genocides happening, and being always silent does not even match what we know of his character.

honestly i do not expect much heroism from roger (he is a pirate at the end of the day). but garp was a hero.

maybe he can be redeemed in next few chapters, but currently garp stonks are reaching far below the mantle.

indeed. dofy controlling and manipulating a whole freaking country seems softer in comparison (though he technically was also a celestial dragon)

[–] sga@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

this but characters for me.

do i get partial credit professor?

[–] sga@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I am not sure, but please correct me if i am wrong. Is the reason that the condtions are anoxic, which lead to lower rate of decomposing, and bog water primarily will not have stuff to digest humans otherwise (probably either stuff which does photosynthesis, or small filter feeders), so you would be kinda preserved. And if the bog is actively developing, you may descend, and eventually be stuck preserved (or whatever is the appropriate term for it)

this may seem stupid/naive, but geothermal does not have any such problem. it is effectively a ac (heat pump). Nuclear too does not require complex manufacturing. it still requires mining, but so do almost all electrical solutions too. but beyond that, they are just rocks that pretty much perpetually dissipiate heat. if you go for betavoltaics, they directly give electrons, and can charge stuff.

sadly, no - you still need high quality silica, and advanced facilities to manufacture the photovoltaics. Imagine it like you buying coal and using coal to power your house. yes this coal is cleaner, and runs for 10-20 years, but there are not many coal plants.

this may very well be the case. I can not say for sure, my guess is that most cpus should be able to do something like 200mb/s zstd(3) uncompress, but you can try to benchmark uncompress speeds (there is also a zstd benchmark command), and if it is statistically significantly lower than your storage (use hdparam/dd to benchmark them), then it is indeed your cpu.
