Isotopes like bismuth 209 make me wonder whether all elements beyond iron radioactive, just with absurdly long half-lives.

I love hydrogen, but it’s a bit of a pain in the ass to transport and store.

Have you seen a cassowary foot? It’s basically a modern day velociraptor.

New favorite term discovered. Like high-test peroxide, but crazy.

- Comment on Lemmy instances die twice 3 hours ago:
What happens when someone posts to a local version of a community whose home instance no longer exists? I assume local users can see the post, but it doesn’t federate to any other instances?
I feel as though federated communities should automatically lock if the home instance closes down. Otherwise, users on other instances can continue posting with no knowledge that their posts aren’t being federated.

I’ve seen various versions attributed to Irving Yalom, Banksy, and others.

- Comment on Are there ActivityPub servers that can see others without necessarily connecting to them to better enable connections? 1 day ago:
This feels like an impossible combination, where your local instance doesn’t have data from other instances, but also knows that they are out there
I think they are suggesting a sort of tiered system of federating communities, where local instances store data on the existence of all communities, but not necessarily their entire contents.
- Comment on Are there ActivityPub servers that can see others without necessarily connecting to them to better enable connections? 1 day ago:
It wouldn’t be pulling in data yet from other instances, but it would enable seeing that their communities were out there
It would have to pull some data, but it could be much less than federating every community.
I think it would be great if, as soon as two servers become aware of each others existence, they automatically federate each others lists of communities, and possibly the sidebar info.
Federating the rest of the data would happen only if someone subscribes to a community from another instance, same as it is now.
- Comment on One Login: Towards a Single Fediverse Identity on ActivityPub 2 days ago:
Then you introduce easy account migration so we can offer them greater privacy without losing out of access to their Threads account.
Will this be possible without cooperation from Meta? I assume they would have little incentive to implement a convenient way for users to leave the platform.

Interesting. Given that H• is a neutral species, what would cause the preference for the creation of stable negative species (freeing up H+) over the creation of stable positive species (freeing up OH-)?

What would cause the shift in pH? The atomic hydrogen would rip off H· radicals, not H^+ ions.
- Comment on Can I lick it? 4 days ago:
Better, but still a few issues.
Promethium, radium, curium, and Californium are all radioactive enough to cause rectal damage. Conversely, I don’t think phosphorus (black or red) or selenium are reactive enough to cause much harm.

Unless the island of stability is much larger than we thought, I suspect Uun is in the “please reconsider” section.

Ah, I see. I assumed that this meme referred to licking a macroscopic “lump” of each element, rather than a single atoms.

Don’t we “lick” oxygen whenever we open our mouths?

It is so safe to lick that it is used in dental and bone implants! Very lickable element.

How is bromine “probably fine”? It should be in the rectal damage section.
Calcium should probably be in the “Ow, my ass” section.
