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

That's the ticket, laddie.

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?

[–] Grimpen@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I heard the kids these days are all electrowetting.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 7 points 4 days ago

I got a heated blanket for my bed so I can now enjoy chronic electrowetting instead of regular bedwetting

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

[–] innermeerkat@jlai.lu 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

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?

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

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

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.

That’s the ticket, laddie.

NileRed here we come

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That video is going to be awesome a year from now

[–] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Oh yeah. At least it'll be 5 hours long

Scotty was right

[–] SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Just don't hand him a mouse (at least not without a demonstration of how to use it).

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 4 points 5 days ago

How quaint.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 4 days ago

I mean... yes, of course he was.

[–] boreengreen@lemm.ee 2 points 4 days ago

So we get a gem fused to aluminium. Cool

TRANSMUTATION

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

So invisible jets (with wondrous pilots) when?

(Or do we just wait for pollution to turn the rain acidic like this?)
