TROPHY CASE

Went hiking with my girlfriend in honor of Earth Day, and came across this... by lundahin pics

The Site A/Plot M Disposal Site is located within Red Gate Woods and situated on the former grounds of Argonne National Laboratory and its predecessor, the University of Chicago Metallurgical Laboratory in Cook County, Illinois and is now part of the Palos Forest Preserve. The site contains buried radioactive waste from contaminated building debris, and the Chicago Pile-1 (CP-1/CP-2), and Chicago Pile-3 (CP-3) nuclear reactors.

I've been a redditor's girlfriend for a while. I'm hoping this is seen by my boyfriend and he makes me a redditor's wife. by rini17400in pics

maybe you can stop karma-whoring and ask him in person?

If an astronaut in the vacuum of space released a bag of flour, would the powder stick onto him/her? by Calvynoin askscience

[–]MustardGreenPeas 6 points7 points ago

This statement is wrong. Both gravity and electrostatic force decay by inverse square of distance. Neither of them is "constant". The electrostatic force does almost cancel out for neutral objects (neglect polarization), but it is not a short-distance force -- photons are massless.

ATP Works for Animals, Why Not Batteries? by Technoguy3in askscience

[–]MustardGreenPeas 0 points1 point ago

As a side point, ATP is more of a mediate for energy transfer, rather than a long-term energy storage. In living cells, ATP is in constant mass production and mass consumption (A human will typically use up his or her body weight of ATP over the course of the day) -- unlike, say fat / sugar, which serves as an energy bank.

We eat solids and drink liquids. Could we even theoretically digest energy in a gaseous state? by Grizzleytin askscience

[–]MustardGreenPeas 80 points81 points ago

i don't think you can extract energy from carbon dioxide under physiological conditions anyways..

How do people justify a belief that killing and eating whales or dogs is horribly wrong, while eating cows, pigs, and lobsters? by Ziddletwixin AskReddit

[–]MustardGreenPeas 0 points1 point ago

IMHO, the reason we don't eat cats/dogs today is simply that our ancestors found them not really delicious compared with other options available then.

Hundreds of Chinese have flooded US President Barack Obama’s Google+ page, apparently taking advantage of a glitch in China’s censorship system to post about human rights and green cards. by nicasucioin technology

[–]MustardGreenPeas -1 points0 points ago

Did I mention I'm actually a Chinese citizen? It's really funny to hear you tell me to "go to China and talk to the people there" -- I fucking came from that communist shit hole!

Also I don't quite get the relevance of your wall of text to my earlier post. My point is, very few educated people believe in bullshits like "western democracy works only in the western world", etc. It's 21st century already. What's all these Liu Xiaobo / Dalai / globalization all about? Is this some kind of "I know so much" show-off that I don't get?

Get out of your fantasy, seriously.

[–]MustardGreenPeas -2 points-1 points ago

no this is not how the majority of educated chinese people think.

only the extreme lefties (the "chirality" definition in China and the US are different..) think like what you describe. and there are so few of them that the government has to hire mercenaries to post all these bullshits on bulletin boards, etc.
