Any corundum without trace elements is colorless. Corundum with trace chemical impurities makes the gems we know. Chromium gives the red to rubies, sapphire has iron and titanium, you can get other colors using vanadium or different ratios. Gems are neat.

Types of corundum maybe but I think that’s a stretch. Sapphire is (usually) blue Al2O3. Ruby is red Al2O3. Transparent aluminum is Al2O27N5.

Scotty would be proud.

Same for me. 650 hours in I’ve got the platinum trophy and golden dice and I started a new character yesterday (gith paladin) because there is still stuff i havent seen.

The name of the AI is gospel? How can this possibly go wrong?

What happens in the scenario where a super-intelligence just uses social engineering and a human is his arms and legs?

There are several effects this could have on Earth and the atmosphere. The presence of these particles could affect how water freezes into ice in the stratosphere, and influence the size of stratospheric aerosol particles. They could also induce salt deposition on aerosol particles, and alter the stratospheric refraction of light.

These may seem like subtle changes, but they could have unintended consequences that we really ought to investigate, the researchers say.

Also vaporizing metals being added to the upper atmosphere isn’t exactly great.

8 inch legs? Eesh.

Oh windows 2000 how I miss thee.

If you can’t find something on piracy trackers you just need better trackers.

I’m guessing it’s Lady Ballers since someone else mentioned it was pinned on IPT and I looked up all the movies to see if any were controversial. Here is a quote from newsweek about Lady Ballers:

The film has been slammed as transphobic by LGBTQ+ people and their allies, but many people took to movie-rating website Rotten Tomatoes to give Lady Ballers five stars. Its release comes amid an ongoing cultural war about transgender rights, especially around competing in sports with cisgender women.

Those plates are replaceable plus this looks cool.

Dude looks like Ming the Merciless from Buck Rogers.

Plus for those few occasions when you need to search Wikipedia it’s like a swipe and a tap to re-enable Wi-Fi.

Maybe this is why it was so easy to get a PS2 in iraq. That’s crazy, 20 years later and mystery solved for me.
