Okay, now make large sheets of the stuff because we need to transport whales... Somewhere.
Err I'm a whale who's totally cool with you taking me off this planet if that's where you happened to be going, not that that's what I'm saying or anything.
Um whale sounds
How do we know he didn't invent the bloody thing?
That’s just (synthetic) sapphire, right?
Aluminimum Oxide sure is and it can be make clear, I don't know why they added the T or x connotation This article appears to be more on a new method of creating that directly out of Al. That said, "electrowetting" is the name of my new rock band, or is it the name of your sex tape?
I heard the kids these days are all electrowetting.
I got a heated blanket for my bed so I can now enjoy chronic electrowetting instead of regular bedwetting
That's the ticket, laddie.
A very welcoming website
You use the internet without an ad blocker‽ Lol this is how a fresh open of the link looks for me
I can’t open links with an external browser on voyager’s pwa :(
Ah, looks like you're on iOS, you should come over to Android, system-wide ad blocking is amazing.
Though I think there are options for iOS that are also system-wide
How do system wide ad blocking on Android?
If you can, root and an app called AdAway (on f-droid)
I'm fairly certain AdAway can do the job without root, it's just not as efficient because it has to do some trickery with VPNs and stuff where as with root it can apply it's blocks directly to the system hosts file
Or use Arctic on iOS. This is what I see. Internal browser configured to use Reader by default. It's about 98% effective.
Tap the button to the left of the refresh button (top right), you should then be able to tap something like “open reader” which does a decent job at blocking intrusive ads
NileRed here we come
That video is going to be awesome a year from now
Oh yeah. At least it'll be 5 hours long
I love science. The last time they were trying to figure out how to make a strong and moldable "glass" they accidentally discovered super glue.
If they can really make aluminum completely clear the applications for such a thing would be pretty wide.
So we get a gem fused to aluminium. Cool
TRANSMUTATION
So invisible jets (with wondrous pilots) when?
(Or do we just wait for pollution to turn the rain acidic like this?)
