  • opal is what happens when spheres of particular size pack in grain structures of particular size.

    you get like interference making diffraction patterns, but not monochrome because pseudo (meta?) crytals of balls modify the ball modes. you can make opal from latex balls, it’s just not hard or as pretty. .

    Basically opal is just the earth playing with its balls.



  • You mistake conflict for confusion.

    If someone’s terminal values are opposed to yours you cannot convince them. Sometimes people change core opinions slowly, but almost always by interaction with people close to them (i.e. where they have conflicting drives to uphold or reject an opinion). Internet debate me bro shit is pointless and just poisons spaces.


  • Basically no Australian wildlife can or will seriously hurt you. There are some snakes which if you try really hard you might run into (for reference I’ve had 2 encounters with dangerous snakes in my life), a couple of spiders one of which is extremely common but not at all aggressive and does not roam, kangaroos if you hit them with your car you will be fucked up, emus and cassowaries if you go where they are and try really hard to make them angry, crocs up north if you approach them can be dangerous, box jellies up north will kill you if you swim when they’re about, dingoes in the centre are wild dogs so if they’re hungry they could harm you.

    you can go bush walking with no plan and just some water. Wander off the track all day, and your biggest danger is getting lost. Avoid that and it’s dehydration or falls. If you stick your hands into dark crevices and overturn bark and stuff I guess spiders and snakes?



  • those are the eyes of a man making billions of dollars.

    One billion, multiple billions.

    2-.5 = 1.5 1-.5 = 0.5 1.5 > 0.5

    “that which was to be demonstrated” 🥴

    I’m just highlighting what a stupid amount of money a billion dollars is. Hopefully if more people realise you can make small armies of people dance for your sick entertainment with much less than that we can start dragging these ghouls from their homes and giving them the old Mussolini special.
