Nah, butane evaporates almost immediately at ambient temp/pressure.

Can't watch the video rn, anything about the dust problem?

[–] RubberElectrons 5 points 2 months ago

I agree. I'm going to reword what I'm saying a little, thanks.

Speaking from experience here, and limited information from the company, this looks like a polished version of a high-voltage grid accelerator.

What can be an expected concern is that besides ionizing air and imparting motion to neutral air molecules as the ionized ones rush from one plate to the other, that same effect can and will charge dust particles. That "collector plate" will need to be easily accessible.

Sound familiar?

Only the future knows.

Hindsight is always 20-20, I don't think it was malicious for us to require masks and such when we hadn't dealt with a pandemic like COVID for literal decades.

Coordination between agencies internationally helped somewhat, masks helped somewhat, distancing helped somewhat. The sum of these contributions is what helped blunt the initial deadly edge of COVID-19.

We know more now. Let's do our best and keep friends and family safe.

How about I pay zero dollars to continue never using that shithole.

Not asking, fuck you Elon.

Someone else can solve that. None of us has infinite energy, so imma use what I got on what I want.

It ain't weapons, bub.

Sorry dude. Love the beaches and Montauk but had pretty bad times trying to be friendly with people out there.

Fuck you, Suffolk county. You and your people suck worse than Nassau, and that's fucking saying something.

Don't come to the city with your shitty driving and low quality people.

Keep an eye on em, everyone I know who interacts with chickens has said the same thing.

Granted that's like one dude, but still. 😆

Sweet, glad that worked out for you. I've learned for certain types of work I gotta ask whether it's on the attack vs defense side of military work; at least a couple of interviewers have been taken aback by such an apparently blunt question, that it "isn't such a relevant question".

In my mind, both times I was wondering why they thought I'd be happy with coming to work every day if it was for something even possibly negative. Engineers get paid to pay attention to details, the fuck wouldn't I be able to piece this shit together from within?

Compartmentalization is a cute concept on paper. 🙄
