Have you broken a pencil tip? I wouldn’t want to breath that in after it goes flying.
- Comment on Pens in Space 3 days ago:
What do you mean? Graphite can be fine or sharp, you saying it’s fine to breathe in? I know I wouldn’t want to breath in a broken tip of a pencil.
- Comment on Pens in Space 3 days ago:
Plus, inhaling graphite dust since it doesn’t fall doesn’t sound fun.

Is this showing 4k77?
- Comment on As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now? 6 days ago:
The scary thing is we have no clue. But they do seem to be racist in their targeting, so if you look white, I’d imagine you’d have a much lower risk.

I hope that’s not an egg sack…
- Comment on Disappointed 1 week ago:
Hank Green has a good video on the subject. This is like crafting in jeans to chimpanzees to make them stand upright and be hairless, and calling them human. There’s some cool technology going on here, but it isn’t anywhere near a full clone.

They’re still largely grey wolves DNA, with a few aesthetic genes of direwolf grafted in.
- Comment on How does one snap their fingers? 1 week ago:
It’s impressive he can snap with a metal gauntlet, I wouldn’t think it’d give enough friction with the metal on metal.
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 1 week ago:
Which is why they’re upping the prices.

There is if you have a potentiometer and a steady enough hand!

I was expecting projectile vomit to fling everywhere.
- Comment on Anon is lacking something metaphysical 2 weeks ago:
I like to say ‘knock knock’ to get someone’s attention, seems to be a little less starting than a hand on the shoulder.
- Comment on What phones are the government people using that are supposedly secure enough to discuss war plans? iPhone? Android? Some special custom-made phone specifically for the government? 3 weeks ago:
They have high side computers they referenced, those are specially vetted. These phones shouldn’t have had sensitive info on them. If the operating system or an app had a screen recorder or key logger, you’d have a leak, even if the encryption is secure. Plus there’s the physical vulnerability of people seeing it in public or losing the phone.
- Comment on 'vegetative electron microscopy' 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think it’s even a hot take
- Comment on LAN (local area network) games 3 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, I remember now. It wasn’t registering the IP. But yeah there should be a way, I was just having technical issues with it.
- Comment on LAN (local area network) games 4 weeks ago:
I didn’t see a way to set it up on Java without running a local server. Is there? I prefer Java, but it seemed like a lot of hours of work to get a server set up.
- Comment on LAN (local area network) games 4 weeks ago:
Minecraft bedrock works over lan, I enjoy playing with my brother. Not exactly pvp though…
- Comment on Sony, which is making a Helldivers 2 movie, is also making a new Starship Troopers movie, but it's not based on the Starship Troopers movie we already have 4 weeks ago:
Wasn’t the original novel just pro fascist, but the movie made it into a ‘pro fascist’ satire? Or am I remembering that wrong?
- Comment on Flatbread 4 weeks ago:
Is there a way of cropping with default apps on mobile?
- Comment on I wonder if the "money can't buy you happiness" people ever lived in a car. 5 weeks ago:
I more think it’s impressive they manage to still be unhappy with absolutely no reason to be so.
- Comment on Untraceable airplanes 5 weeks ago:
C5 Galaxy big Jets? Private jet sized Lear Jets? 737 type refueler jets?
- Comment on Untraceable airplanes 5 weeks ago:
What type of aircraft were they?

We’d need to break the speed of light, which isn’t possible with our current understanding of physics, but who knows.

Not till the heat death of the universe.

You could also use a wormhole to travel to different universes. It breaks the speed of light, so all bets are off.

It’d be interesting to see what a log scale would look like for this. I’ll see if I can find one.
Here’s one.

Looks like the image at the top is a bit condensed comparatively.

The edge of the observable universe is moving away from us faster than the speed of light from our perspective. (Due to space stretching) So we’d need to go faster than the speed of light to catch up.

If we assume the hubble constant is the same in all directions, the farthest we’d be able to see would be a sphere, dictated by the time light has had to travel to us.
