  I mean, if you could extract any tritium from the reactor cavity, but it’s probably going to get burned up instantly.

  The reactions I show add up to this overall reaction. Neutrons simply serve as a catalyst.

  [2]H + [6]Li -> 2 [4]He

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Japanese experimental nuclear fusion reactor inaugurated⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The reaction used in fusion generators is:

  [2]H + [3]H -> [4]He + n

  Since tritium is usually produced from lithium in situ, you add:

  [6]Li + n -> [3]H + [4]He.

  The only radioactive thing here is tritium, and it’s mostly confined to the reactor. Also, tritium isn’t nearly as bad as fission waste.

  Old games are likely to work better, as new games are likely to use new features or behaviour which aren’t yet handled properly by Wine/Proton.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do people find good information on the internet these days?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Really depends on the subject, but for anything programming:

  • GeeksForGeeks for anything deeply CS-related. They give example code.
  • Stack Overflow, toxic as it is, is surprisingly helpful.

  Some games use kernel-level anticheat. Unfortunately, because there is a kernel driver involved, it must be specifically ported to Linux, and some developers simply don’t want to bother.

  examples: Valorant, Roblox, PUBG

  This gets me wondering: In sign languages, are there different words for “hearing” (i.e. looking someone sign to you) vs “seeing” (i.e. looking at something that isn’t signing?
