Or Twitter? After all, they aid and abet this shit in the first place, and their behavior shows it. Aiding and abetting a hate crime is part of hate crimes, IIRC.
"I must have missed that class, are you trying to say society wants to legalize marijuana and the law is against it?"
No, I'm trying to say that plenty of hate was spewed BY THE LAW towards a subset of society, all for a political purpose. If you don't know who Harry (not Henry, derp) Anslinger is, I highly suggest you read up.
Actual experience working with, fusing, coloring, beryllium-treating sapphires (I work in the minerals/lapidary industry) and knowing what they're going to do. Us jewelers have about 5 millennia more experience than todays material engineers. The second you scratch a sapphire gem while cutting it, any stress will fuck it up. Scratch a quartz gem, it'll laugh and ask for more. Even macrocrystaline quartz is just a properly-aligned stack of cryptocrystalline structures, instead of one homogenous structure like most other minerals. Peridot is as hard as quartz but far more brittle. I just finished a ring today. Tiny scratch on a peridot, tiny bump while trying to set the prong and the stone shatters, prong hadn't even been tightened. Got it on live video on Facebook too, as I was broadcasting the making live to the client.
"No, and neither have you, if you're claiming it increases fuel efficiency"
I see you have never tried building and using a hydrolysis injection technique. I built a greasecar that uses one. It's in use in Liberty, TN right now.
"Bullshit. In high-performance engines that need very high compression ratios, or operate at very high temperatures, water injection can prevent premature detonation"
Bolded statement demonstrates you don't know what a hydro carb (that's a nickname for a hydrolysis-based gas injection system) does. Thank god for engines class in high school as an elective. Here, have fun with this, I competed back when high schools were still allowed to compete - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
"Try building a car from replacement parts purchased from a dealer and see what the total cost is."
Okay, let's do some quick online shopping. I paid $2,000 for my 2002 Explorer. Engine and Transmission runs $2,500 used, best deal I can find searching all certified Ford dealers in Southern California. That's not including pumps, alternator, not even the serpentine belt or motor mounts and bushings. The AC alone is almost $2,000 to replace. IIRC the 2002 model had a seat belt retractor recall, so I could probably get those for free, the design hasn't changed a whole lot.
" It's never about free to spew hate towards a subset of society. That's the law, that's societies view."
Son, that sure as fuck didn't stop Henry Anslinger and the Federal Government in criminalizing Cannabis. Wake the fuck up, go back to school, and pay some attention to real history.
It is not. There is no macro-crystalline structure. It is purely cryptocrystalline.
"Actually, it mostly appears to be a term that fell out of common use about 200 years ago"
And I bet the majority of your findings of the usage of the term came from usage in Locomotives, as back then that was the primary usage. of the material. Then borosilicate glass manufacturing came along, and quartz quickly fell out of use for all but the most demanding things. Laminar Quartz was used up until WWII.
"Under most circumstances sapphire will take far more force before breaking than quartz."
I've got a broken Apple Watch, uses Sapphire glass. My Timex from 30 years ago using fused quartz is still unscathed. The Timex can withstand my mining excursions, the Apple watch could not. That's multiple years of underground inside-the-mountain experience with multiple devices claiming to have break/shatter proof screens. And the only one that still works is the one with a quartz face.
"Uh, huh, and automakers have kept the 200 mile per gallon carburetor out of production for the last fifty years, because the oil companies have paid them off."
You've never used a hydro carb before? They work (but not at 200 MPG, more like 80 MPG. 200 MPG is pushing about 225% past theoretical maximum distance what you're going to ever get from petrol alone given our earth's friction.)
"Hell yes there's profit in a nearly-unbreakable screen."
Which is why phone manufacturers charge almost the same price of the phone for a screen replacement?
" If laminar quartz (or fused quartz; note that they're different things) "
Not geologically, they're not. Laminar quartz comes from hydrothermal alteration and fusing of cryptocrystalline mass. It is natural fused quartz.
"But I don't find it being used anywhere. That's a pretty strong indicator that there are some problems with it"
Most fused quartzes are in use in everything else, right down to scientific glassware and dab rig nails. And quartz withstands breaking far better than sapphire. As you increase mohs hardness level, you get more brittle. You wanna know why it isn't used? Because there's no profit in a nearly-unbreakable screen.
I dunno, you could probably make some sort of counter-force generator out of the Fascists and Antifas right about now with all of those Olympic gold mental gymnastics they're pulling right now, and probably make this whole planet explode from the sheer release of energy. Similar to a cat with buttered bread strapped butter side up to its back and tossed off a building, except much, MUCH more volatile.
"I dunno why one should make protectors from quartz."
Because quartz is much better than tempered glass. Also, good luck breaking true fused quartz. Not like you'd need to do that, the laminar quartz sheets out of the Southern Pacific Quarry (where incidentally you can find arm-thick schorl tourmalines sticking out of the wall) come out in sheets you could just laser-cut now days.
And I didn't say they made quartz screens NOW, I'm saying they should be making and using them.
Even tempered safety glass shatters and creates pieces with nano edges that will rip you to shreds. It's basically just clear obsidian, after all.
Decryption was essentially negated. That's breaking a layer of security if there ever was one. Otherwise, why would the encryption be in place in the first place? That is the point of encryption, correct? To secure things?
"Just in case any folks here are unaware, use glass or use nothing."
Fuck no. Use quartz. Withstands scratches better, isn't as brittle as glass (besting tempered glass) and isn't prone to cracking from heat/cold cycling because of its insanely low thermal coefficient of expansion, unlike 'sapphire' screens. It's the shit we used for locomotive coal engine car windows. in WWII. There's an old mine for laminar quartz out in Nuevo, still produces insanely tough quartz. Tough enough that a small boulder destroyed my lower wall breaker, and barely sustained any damage.
You thought your energy, storage, and bandwidth bills were high before... and you're still not really making any money, and thought this was a good idea?
Try firing your corrupt administration, first. You might have enough money to BEGIN to afford the drain you just put on yourself.
"And if we can make even semi-decent rechargible zinc cells, it's a major win."
We made them, and they were a major loss, with horrid energy density (although the 1.6 nominal cell voltage was nice to have, they couldn't match the Amp-hours of Ni-MH) and only lasted about 40 charge cycles before going to utter shit and not accepting a charge any longer. They are called PowerGenix batteries.
Whiskering also happens with Ni-MH batteries as well. You can break the structures down with an applied voltage, at the cost of degrading the actual anode and cathode materials.I brought a dead (like 5 year old PKCELL) set of 4 Ni-MH AA back to life (tested originally at 0.2 volts each on a meter, they should've been fucked) with a hard slam of 24V @ 1.25A for a few seconds, and suddenly they took a charge again, and held that charge, but heavily reduced capacity.
The cross-section of those cells was QUITE revealing. Almost looked like microcrystalline stibnite grew inside the cell.
Looks like these guys didn't learn from PowerGenix and their nickel-zinc batteries.
The problem with every fucking zinc battery is that it WHISKERS LIKE MAD when you discharge/recharge it.
Stop the micro/nano-structures which form nilly-willy on the Zinc side of things after the battery has been manufactured and put into use, and you literally solve the charge degradation problem, charge cycle count problem, and the variable energy density problem all in one go.
"Of course if you read between the lines you find out this exactly what the klan wants to happen."
Same MO for Westboro Baptist. And it makes sense - garner more support by proving you were the innocent party and were attacked first.
Truly the Fascists are showing just how hypocritical the Anti-Fascists truly are.
"It wouldn't be the first time that klan (I refuse to capitalize it) has turned violent only to find out the klan was defending themselves. I've been reading up on events for the last 30 years and it seems that in most of the cases where violence breaks out it usually starts with counter protesters."
Check out the general age range for both groups. Antis tend to be younger and thus far less patient. Pros tend to be older and know how to bide their time.
Works when P=0 for any value of N. Works when N=1 for any value of P. So it IS equal, but only for a small percentage of possible cases. The summary makes it seem like it simply doesn't work in any case at all.
Re-watching and listening to the video, his transmission is disengaged while spooling his engine at high RPM (aka clutch pressed in) right before the vehicle gets hit and the mob closes in. That's almost (not quite but close) enough to have me declare him innocent, were I on a jury. That's already eliminating multiple elements of the crime, if this is the case, which means a conviction cannot happen as all elements cannot be proven.
Yea, where's that video where he backed up? See, all I'm hearing in any video is what's called a "clutch rev" for you millennial non-manual-transmission drivers. No acceleration, no typical chug of an engine bearing load to accelerate, just a spooling engine that isn't delivering power to the wheels. After the smash, THEN you hear power go to the wheels. AFTER the assault.
Re-watch, and listen.
I'm not trying to defend the guy, but this whole mob mentality shit that refuses to give way to rational logic needs to fucking stop.

They probably moved to a solid composition instead of a semi-liquid composition to avoid whiskering, but that won't solve it entirely.

"Zinc batteries are nothing new - it's in the same alkaline batteries we've been abusing for generations."
And the reason we keep using them for disposable batteries instead of rechargeable ones is that zinc historically sucks at being recharged.
