Is that why the asgard were so emaciated? They modified their clones to have a complete absence of butt fat?

The bulb shape, color, and texture aren't a match for scallion.

Potentially grape hyacinth?

There's a few flowering bulbs that have leaves similar to that. Do you see any blossoms emerging from any of them? I'm in North Carolina and I just saw the first grape hyacinth flowers yesterday.

It's never safe to experiment with replicators. Just ask the asgard how that turns out.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antihydrogen

Anti hydrogen has been produced and detected in experiments. The energy transition levels are identical to normal hydrogen.

In a newtonian view, two particles orbit the center of mass of the combined system. Since protons are 1836 times as massive as electrons, the "orbit" center would be very close to the proton. So it's a bit like asking what would happen if we swapped the earth and sun. The orbits would change position, but the earth would still orbit the shared center inside the sun at the same orbital radius. So it would look essentially the same as it is currently, just with the center of the system having been shifted by one au.

Clearly I've ignored all of quantum mechanics in this description, but the conclusion is the same. The nucleus and electron both have wavefunctions, but the mass difference makes the spread of the nucleus negligibly small compared to electron orbits. Swapping initial positions and momentum doesn't really change the properties of the system.

Then Jupiter and Saturn enter the dance and they're all sort of wrong.

Working up in size doesn't work all that well in my experience for masonry bits. They don't cut material, they pulverize it. Trying to run a larger bit through an existing hole is prone to jamming.

Can you get more connectors and a crimper and put on a new connector after running the cable through a smaller hole? That's better for sealing anyway.

I recently found the setting to turn the beep volume down or off. I have it set to the lowest volume.

Although, on my system at least, it doesn't switch to the headphones until after you select a user profile. So the initial audio ends up playing through the speakers. I haven't found a way around that beside muting the sound system before booting the ps5.

Plenty of IPO's don't hop up. You're still placing a bet on how their stock will perform with 0 history to estimate volatility.

The Playstation controller has a headphone jack so you can have both.

The real torture is knowing you're not even good enough for possession. The whole thing is an act meant to get people to torture themselves.

Density would be a factor as well for both cost and device dimension/weight.

Cache is way faster than RAM, but it takes up too much die space and power to be the only volatile memory.
