ideally, os should not affect power supply. there is a potential that your os (well not os, but os having poor drivers causing hardware) drawing a lot of power, or possibly your system is unstable (in sense of frequently fluctuating power draw). If you think the os is to blame, find some stable taxxing benchmark (lets say ffmpeg transcode and run something for hours take a video, and then take some taxxing codec like av1 and write to /dev/null (so storage is not filled)). if the performance is stable (for ffmpeg transcode, it shows a speed parameter) and your power supply is not die-ing (i have at this moment forgotten how to spell present continous of die), then your power supply is fine, and your memory is fine too (another thing that shows abrupt behaviour). if performance is fluctuating or severely throttling, or something exotic, then maybe your setup has something broken. now swap some hardware or os, and replicate. you will likely find the problem.

i beg your pardon for following rudeness, but did you read the above message? I completely trust you that you tasted a mushroom and spat it, to live and tell the story to me, but what you are saying is that a certain mushroom requires a certain amount to kill a person. firstly i do not know how was that number found (as in ingestion or directly shooting it's extract to blood). when you ingest, you do not absorb anything, and there is a potential that directly exposed will require a lesser critical dose. and beyond that - toxins do not require digestive pathways.

the number is most likely calculated by measuring the amount present in a failed organ (in a dead patient mostly) and scaling to whole body and asking from surrounding folks how much they ate, and then matching with toxin concentration in mushroom. this lethal amount is not same for direct blood stream exposure.

you possibly want to say something like - mushrooms do not have enough to kill you just from touch or chew/spit, but not will. will suggests that there is some specific reason that either mushrooms can not produce enoug toxin to kill you from touch.

I would still stand by my original statment that it is stupid to expose contact or chew/spit. I am not saying you are stupid, I hav willingly tasted/sniffed many chemicals (not safe ones), but that is more of a decision (as in for learning purposes like you did for taste or for fun(that i do mostly)). It does not make that activity safe.

sure, but was anything wrong in second paragraph?

(following comment is long, so natural guess would be that i used a llm to write it - i did not. my poor structure sentence, grammar and spellings should indicate that. So please read it - if you are uninterested, skip the middle section and jump mostly from 3rd last para).

since i clearly do not know mushrooms (or botany for that matter, i have studied biochem moostly at intro level, so that is about it), i looked up mushroom toxicity, and most websites roughly say '"generally safe" to touch, but don't ingest and wash hands'. thing is, these guidelines are said for pretty much anything, since ingestion is the easiest way to go beyond our primary defense (skin). so i tried to look up mechanisms, and found the following article

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11333700/

so i am trying to find mechanisms of toxicity which do not specifically require digestion metabolic pathways (you have metabolic processes happening in all cells, so general oxidation and reduction do not count as ingestion specific, as that can happen from topical contact only).

gyromitrin - 'Toxicosis can result from oral and inhalation exposure.' so likely getting into bloodstream from lungs. further processes require hydrolysis at low ph, so not happening in blood as is. but if we consider a small amount of hydrolysis, it can still form formaldehyde on oxidation.

also

'enzyme that is directly inhibited by gyromitrin is the pyridoxal phosphokinase. This enzyme is responsible for dietary vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) conversion into active pyridoxal 5-phosphate (Horowitz et al., 2024[53]). Moreover, in vitro and in vivo, MMH may generate hydrazones with pyridoxal-5-phosphate (Barceloux, 2008[8]). Pyridoxal-5-phosphate is a cofactor for glutamic acid decarboxylase and GABA transaminase in the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthetic pathway, which results in decreased GABA synthesis (Barceloux, 2008[8]). MMH can directly block glutamic acid decarboxylase when given intraperitoneally to rats at a concentration of 0.8 mM/kg, resulting in a further decrease in GABA levels (Medina 1963[71]).'

so gaba (for now, just consider it something required in brain for optimal signalling)(signalling refers to neuron activation here) is disturbed. this is a direct effect, no metabolic activity required.

moving onto - 'Orellanine is a potent nephrotoxin found in some species of the genus Cortinarius'. nephro means kidney here.

Orellanine toxic pathway is not clear, but none of the proposed methods suggest metabolic pathways, and mostly go like after ingestion of so many grams, so and so amount is found concentrated in kidneys (and since the same compund is found, it mostly got absorbed into blood from intestines, and then filtered by blood.

also 'Orellanine disrupts LLC-PK1 cell monolayers and inhibits membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase and cytosolic lactate dehydrogenase activity'

moving to Cyclopeptides - Phallotoxins and Amatoxins.

'Amatoxins are able to inhibit mainly the activity of the RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) and also polymerase III (RNAP III), through α-amanitin and β-amanitin (respectively) (Diaz 2018[27]), resulting in decreases in mRNA content, causing deficient protein synthesis and cell death (Garcia et al., 2015[42]) (Figure 7(Fig. 7)).'

'α-Amanitin has been shown to act synergistically with cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and this may be the final cause of liver failure.'

then the article goes into antidotes.

point being - all the toxic things (except partly the first one, which would be much slower in one of its pathways) do not require digestive metabolic pathways, just have to reach blood, and then time and amount is key.

Should i say on stuff that I do not have knowledge about - no, mostly. my first comment was mostly written in humor, the way the parent commenter wrote. but then the asked about it in followup, and they guessed it was a joke too. but i still replied and gave a plausible reasoning for my comment, mostly because that is kinda how i like my humor (be at least partially based on reality, and then change it). could i have done a better job? sure, but I do not think i did a gross injustice. most comments that are written are not refering or citing reearch articles. I had heard of how some mushroom toxins work ( i had heard of nephro one sspecifically), so based my response on that. as to where i got that - i dont know, probably some youtube video.

And finally - can you please turn down the sass just a notch. you seemingly were unhappy with my comment (possibly a seasoned forager, or a mushroom toxicology researcher), unhappy enough to downvote both comments. and someone also agreed with you, so they likely have similar knowledge i presume. given these facts, would you like to revisit your comment, or voting. If nothing, at least respond to this comment. I think my ego is fragile enough to reply to a single line comment with 500+ words just so i can say i was write, but i do not like being wrong.

i was trying to be funny. fill redact with paralyse or kill.

I would not recommend chewing (and subsequent spitting) mostly because you do not know (of the top of your head) about the toxic dosage, and it may enter your blood (where if it enters, game over i guess). think some amount of exposed area near your gums, or micro-scissions. Same with picking, maybe you cut your nails recently and have exposed skin (blood will likely help by clottong and blocking) or while foraging, you ran next to a sharp branch or bark and have a deep scratch exposing blood. not likely stuff.

also i do not know much about mushrooms, and likely their toxic nature is completely different from stuff like ivies (poison ivy for example) where just contact on exposed skin can cause immune response (swelling, itching, etc), but maybe (possibly) some mushrooms would have some toxic thing on surface.

[–] sga@piefed.social -2 points 11 hours ago (7 children)

some of them are so toxic, just the act of touching or picking them could redact you, so you would not be able to eat it.

[–] sga@piefed.social 3 points 13 hours ago

Well I do not collect anything because I am broke. But I had some old stuff (pirated cds from ye olde days before streaming was mainstream), and suggest to rip the cd contents to some modern storage (portable ssd or hard disk, or some other kind of storage), mostly because that way they do not take physical space (you can give the cd away to someone who may find it useful), and digital copy can have multiple backups and less likely to age poorly (think cd getting read errors as more scratches forms from usage).

[–] sga@piefed.social 3 points 13 hours ago

Imo the best method is to make a detailed post, and have it pinned, and have a summary in sidebar linking to post. if community is on piefed, you can keep detailed in wiki, and have a pinned post and sidebar both have summaries. I am a rss feed user, and a pinned post helps there (it will likely be the oldest post that will always be served)

[–] sga@piefed.social 14 points 13 hours ago

but they are interoperable (as you see, the above 2 folk are on lemmy, and I am on piefed).

[–] sga@piefed.social 1 points 13 hours ago

I recieved a report for this post, but it is fine imo. I think they may be hinting at comm/instance drama, but since no names were used, and since sunshine refuses to spill the tea, it is not seeding drama (at least amongs the unknowns like me).

[–] sga@piefed.social 3 points 13 hours ago

Rimu is indeed very wise. From what I know, wisdom is directly proportional to number of white hair you have, and I have heard the rumors that rimu evn has a secret white beard that he keeps hidden to appear more humble.

[–] sga@piefed.social 16 points 1 day ago

it does now, most important feature in gim3 is non destructive layers

 

sorry for being like the annoying yt comments yelling "FIRST".

Also I want to ask - Am i even gen z?

I was born between 2000 and 2005. looking up online says that genz is born in mid to late 2000s, and i can get to that by technicalities, but year of birth does not really reflect on one's nature.

So if i want to know if I am gen z or not, what do i do (and i do not want checlists, etc).

If being unable to find employment despite graduating with good grades is one, then I a guess I am one.

THERE'S ALSO A BOOK CALLED "DOORS", WHICH CONTAINS ALL OF THESE AND IS VERY EASY TO READ! MIO-CHAN, ARE YOU PERHAPS CURIOUS IF YAMATO WILL APPEAR AGAIN? PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO IT! (LAUGHS)


READER: FOR THOSE WHO'VE BEEN WONDERING - ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME WE PUT AN END TO THE MYSTERY OF THE PERSON SEEN FROM BEHIND ON THE COVER OF CHAPTER 631? I'LL JUST SAY IT - IS IT GOLDEN LION SHIKI? OR PERHAPS THE "LEFT HAND OF THE PIRATE KING," SCOPPER GABAN?

https://envs.sh/s/BGxBhj7tzaLc6fYAJf60Dw/Hc6.jpg

ODA: YOU'VE GOT A GOOD MEMORY! THAT IS GABAN. HE JUST CAN'T SHAKE OFF HIS HABIT OF TRAVELING - HE'S BEEN WANDERING AROUND QUITE A BIT. HE IS A NAVIGATOR, AFTER ALL.


READER: THE AKAZAYA NINE (NINE RED SCABBARDS) HAVE EACH BECOME DAIMYO OF THEIR RESPECTIVE REGIONS, BUT HOW WERE THEY CHOSEN? DON'T TELL ME IT WAS ALL KIN'EMON'S DECISION?! AS EXPECTED OF KIN-SAN!!!

ODA: YES. WITH THE DESPISED KAIDO AND OROCHI GONE, AND WITH ODEN NO LONGER AMONG THEM, HIS SON MOMONOSUKE HAS DECLARED HIS RULE OVER THE NATION OF WANO COUNTRY! BEBEN!!! ALTHOUGH MOMONOSUKE'S MIND IS STILL THAT OF AN EIGHT-YEAR-OLD, OF COURSE, ITS UP TO THE SCABBARDS TO SUPPORT HIM!

READER: THE CELESTIAL DRAGONS - SAINT ROSWARD, SAINT CHARLOS, AND SAINT SHALRIA-WHAT FAMILY ARE THEY FROM?

ODA: THEY'RE FROM THE ROSWARD FAMILY. SAINT ROSWARD'S PARENTS MUST BE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS. ROSWARD'S FULL NAME IS ROSWARD ROSWARD.


READER: HELLO, ODA! I WAS WONDERING SINCE YORK WANTS TO BECOME A CELESTIAL DRAGON, DOES THAT MEAN VEGAPUNK HIMSELF, BEFORE HE SPLIT INTO SATELLITES, ALSO HAD AT LEAST A LITTLE DESIRE TO BECOME ONE?

ODA: I SEE. WAS THIS A SHOCK? THIS IS A DIFFICULT TOPIC, BUT IN MY VIEW, EVERY PERSON HAS BIG DESIRES TOWARD VARIOUS THINGS, AND ONLY WHEN WE HAVE THE "REASON" TO CONTROL THOSE DESIRES DO WE TRULY BECOME "HUMAN"

IF WE DEFINE REASON AS "RIGHTEOUSNESS" (READ AS SHAKA) THEN THINGS LIKE HATRED TOWARD THE CELESTIAL DRAGONS OR THE MORAL SENSE THAT TELLS US "YOU MUST NOT KILL PEOPLE" ALSO COME FROM REASON. BUT IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEN PERHAPS EVERYONE HAS A LITTLE "CELESTIAL DRAGON" INSIDE THEM TOO.

THAT'S MY EXTREME THEORY. (PLEASE TAKE IT LIGHTLY, LOL.)

MY ANSWER IS: "IT'S POSSIBLE THAT WITHIN HUMANS EXISTS THE DESIRE TO BECOME A CELESTIAL DRAGON."


READER: HELLO, ODA-SAN! IN THE ONE PIECE WORLD, THERE ARE TWO CALENDARS - THE "AGE OF SEA CIRCLE" (KAIEN-REKI) AND THE "AGE OF HEAVEN" (TEN-REKI). WHAT TIME PERIODS DO EACH OF THESE REFER TO? AND WHAT YEAR IS IT CURRENTLY?

ODA: AH, I SEE. CASUAL READERS HAVE PROBABLY FORGOTTEN THOSE EVEN EXIST (LAUGHS). YOU'RE CURIOUS, HUH? YOU'RE THINKING ONE OF THEM MUST BE THE OLDER CALENDAR, RIGHT? THE ANSWER IS: RIGHT NOW IT'S YEAR 4141 OF THE AGE OF HEAVEN, AND YEAR 1541 OF THE AGE OF THE SEA CIRCLE. BOTH ARE STILL IN USE. BY THE WAY, ON SKYPIEA, EVERYTHING HAPPENED ROUGHLY 400 YEARS AGO, BUT I JUST ROUNDED IT NICELY TO "400 YEARS." YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT THIS INFORMATION.


READER: ODACCHI! THESE DAYS, E-BOOKS HAVE BECOME MAINSTREAM AND THERE ARE MORE WEB MANGA THAN EVER, BUT I FEEL ONE PIECE OFTEN USES WIDE PANELS THAT STRETCH ACROSS BOTH PAGES, EVEN OUTSIDE OF BIG SPLASH SCENES. DO YOU CONSCIOUSLY DESIGN IT TO BE READ IN PRINT FORM?

ODA: AH, RIGHT - BOTH JUMP AND THE ONE PIECE VOLUMES HAVE DIGITAL VERSIONS NOW. OF COURSE, EVERYONE'S FREE TO READ HOWEVER THEY LIKE, BUT THE LAYOUT I HAVE IN MIND IS ALWAYS TWO PAGES AS ONE SPREAD (). IN OTHER WORDS, THE "JUMP MAGAZINE," "COMICS," OR DIGITAL VERSIONS READ ON SOMETHING HORIZONTAL LIKE A PC OR IPAD. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN I DO A GAG THAT SPANS BOTH PAGES, I SOMETIMES DRAW THE LEFT PAGE'S PANELS A BIT SMALLER SO THAT WHEN YOU FLIP THE PAGE, THE JOKE ON THE RIGHT APPEARS BIGGER AND HITS HARDER. THAT'S ONE OF THE VISUAL EFFECTS I USE IN MY STORYTELLING. SO FOR PEOPLE READING ON A VERTICALLY ORIENTED SMARTPHONE SCREEN, I CAN ONLY SAY "SORRY ABOUT THAT" (LOL)


READER: IT'S CUTE THAT KUMA USED THE DRAWING OF BONNEY AS HIS FLAG. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT IS HIS SHIP NAME?

ODA: IT'S CALLED THE "LEAP OUT JEWELRY".


READER: LUFFY'S EYE PUPIL ARE QUITE SMALL AREN'T THEY? WHAT IF HE WORE COLORED CONTACTS? WHAT WOULD HE LOOK LIKE?

ODA: LIKE THIS

https://envs.sh/s/y_TuGtE0iXbimc1gUcXeQA/HZE.jpg

A NORMAL DRAWING OF LUFFY (LEFT): "I'LL BECOME THE KING OF THE PIRATES!" A DRAWING OF LUFFY WITH COLORED CONTACTS: "I'LL BECOME THE KING OF PIRATED COPIES!" (BOOTLEGS)


READER: I GOT SO EXCITED WHEN LUFFY'S NEW GEAR 5 TECHNIQUES, "GOMU GOMU NO DAWN WHIP" AND "DAWN ROCKET," APPEARED! BUT WHEN I SEE THE WORD "WHITE," I'D NATURALLY EXPECT "PUNCH" — THAT WOULD BE EVEN MORE EXCITING! SO WHY IS IT READ AS "DAWN"?

ODA: HOLD ON A SEC! RAMENMARU-KUN?! (THE GUY WHO SENT THE PREVIOUS QUESTION) EVEN IF YOU REPELLED ONE WEIRDO, DID YOU JUST SUMMON ANOTHER ONE?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN "WHEN IT'S WHITE, IT HAS TO BE PUNCH"?!! PTA MEMBERS, PLEASE, IT'S NOT WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE!! THIS ISN'T THAT KIND OF MANGA!!

(NOTE: WHITE PUNCH IS A LIQUOR MIXTURE. THEN AGAIN, ODA DODGES TO ANSWER THE QUESTION LOL)


READER: BONNEY IS ONLY 12 YEARS OLD, YET SHE KEEPS THE APPEARANCE OF SOMEONE IN HER 20S. WILL SHE STAY AS A 12-YEAR-OLD FROM NOW ON?

ODA: OUT AT SEA, NO ONE WOULD TAKE A CHILD CAPTAIN SERIOUSLY, AND LOOKING OLDER WAS ALSO CONVENIENT FOR HER JOURNEY TO FIND HER FATHER. BUT NOW THAT SHE'S ON BOARD THE SUNNY WHICH IS NOW ON ELBAPH, SHE SEEMS TO FEEL SAFE ENOUGH TO REMAIN AS A CHILD. PLEASE KEEP AN EYE ON HER FROM HERE ON OUT.


The End

 

src: https://reddit.com/r/OnePieceSpoilers/comments/1olv8s2/theory_blackbeard_is_not_rocks_true_successor/ by https://reddit.com/user/RochHoch

(While I have heard this theory before too, this is one of the cleanest forms I have seen. Theory that will does not usually go in kin was already present, and back then we did not know xebec was teach's fatherr, so they were compatible. If I find a earlier iteration of theory, I will also add that here)

There’s a pattern in One Piece that is highly relevant to the current flashback: the men of the D Clan have sons that do not follow in their footsteps, instead they have to look elsewhere to find their true heirs.

Roger’s son did not want to become the Pirate King, as Ace wanted it to be Whitebeard. Instead, it was Shanks, Roger’s adopted son, who inherited his will by passing it to Luffy

Garp wanted his son (and grandson) to become strong Marines. They both refused, so Garp took on Koby as his student, and passed the future of the Marines over to him

Dragon deliberately did not want to drag his son into his war, so he let Luffy find his own path instead. Then Dragon found a protégé of his own in Sabo.

I suggest that Rocks and Teach will continue this trend. After all, Blackbeard is nothing like his dad, being a backstabbing coward with none of Rocks’ admirable traits. I cant imagine a scumbag like Teach truly inheriting the will of the guy that was fiercely loyal to his friend Harald until the very end, despite their differences. Even if they both have it out for Imu, Blackbeard just isn’t him.

So who actually will inherit Rocks’ dream? Just remember whose flashback this originally was, its no coincidence. The boy Rocks inspired and the son of his best friend, Loki will inherit the will of Davy Jones and do what Harald refused to by bringing Rocks’ goal to fruition.

Loki even fits Rocks’ mold of being a “bad” guy that’s actually not nearly as evil as he initially seemed, even their personalities are more aligned than Rocks and his actual son. And Loki was introduced announcing that we would destroy "The World", no? It all lines up.


Bonus Theory - The 13th Character in the 1121 Page

(Page in consideration is the page showing 12 important people who are "trying" to find one piece or are important in future of world)

(this theory is not that strong independently imo, hence I did not make a separate post. It partially goes into finding clues in numbers and some other patterns, which while Oda does do, they are not very conclusive as often it is posible to fit many things(for example, for a very long time, luffy had been related to 56, and only number left in straw hat was 29, which also turned out to be loofy only (in nika form)))

src: https://reddit.com/r/OnePieceSpoilers/comments/1oarshz/the_13th_character_in_the_1121_page/ by https://reddit.com/user/OnePieceTheorist1

So this page from Chapter 1121 shows Buggy, Blackbeard, Luffy, Shanks, Sabo, Kuzan, Garling, Koby, Imu, Dragon, Shamrock, and Sakazuki. 12 characters. I think there is a 13th hidden character here. Let me explain.

So 13 is considered an unlucky number (Triskaidekaphobia). That’s why some elevators skip 13 and Friday the 13th is considered scary. We don’t know why but 2 of the most famous origins for this are Judas being the 13th to sit at the table at the Last Supper (the other 11 Apostles and Jesus, then Judas) and a Norse myth about 12 gods having a dinner party in Valhalla, with Loki being the 13 god to arrive despite being uninvited.

Yes, I think Loki is the 13th player here.

• First of all, Loki’s bounty is 2.6 billion. That’s double 1.3 billion, or 13. Oda probably wouldn’t want Loki’s 13 connection to be so blatantly obvious.

• Second of all, this page shows major players in the Final Saga: the 4 Emperors, the leader of the RA, leader of the WG, leader of the Marines, leader of the HK 2 second-in-command characters, and then Koby and Kuzan. At the time of this page, Loki had not been fully introduced. Shamrock had also not been introduced, but he appears as a silhouette. I think Loki is here because he is big enough to a major player in the Final Saga. His father was Harald, who fought Rocks D. Xebec (arguably evenly), he also killed Harald. Loki had to be defeated by Shanks, an Emperor of the Sea. It wouldn’t make sense for Loki to be a one-arc character in the Final Saga. This guy is strong.

• Third of all, he is what Luffy is to Shanks but for Rocks instead. Rocks D. Xebec is obviously a major player in the Final Saga, despite being dead. He seemingly lives on through Blackbeard, but I don’t think that’s the case. Blackbeard is a coward and a traitor. Rocks seems to have honor. Blackbeard killed WB, who took care of him and helped his father against Imu. Rocks, on the other hand, went to GV and fought Imu to save his wife and son. I think Loki is the successor to Rocks, not Blackbeard. If Blackbeard was Rocks’ successor, then Ace is Roger’s successor and not Shanks or Luffy. Loki is the new Rocks, not Blackbeard.

So in conclusion, I think Loki is the 13th major player in the Final Saga.

 

These are scans of a japanese copy. for those of us who do not read japanese, these are effectively picture books, but they convey most of the story, so here are some of the major plot points i can understand. If you know japanese, please help clear stuff.

My interpretation of pictures (very badly done)

cover page - not sure but it is possible it is start of new cover story starring perona (she wants to find mihawk). this could just be one of drawing request.

page 2 - all are just looking as imu has done "something" (as they all are seeing reversi for the first time)

3 - rocks has partially transformed (one eye is normal, bottom set of fangs have not formed, no wings). this is the first we see someone resisting the reversi. unclear as to why eris (wife) and bb are shown, maybe imu brought up again that rocks has to kill them.

4 - not sure but I have heard, that befor final transformation, imu makes rocks more angry by bringing up that harald was to stupid to win over (src: redon tweet). This fuels the theory that reversi requires anger or a strong negative emotion to happen. and rocks was the only strong one shown yet who could even resist it for some time

5 - rocks falls, big mom, kaida and wb look over him with concern

6 - rocks comes to senses, and some back and forth, and kaido and big mom charge onto him

7 - kaido and rocks clash. kaido is knocked out

8 - BM knocked out. WB has some exchange, and rocks charges towards WB.

9 - WB stops rocks' attack (rocks is using haki infused sword attack as usual, WB seemingly only used his fruit power and haki to stop, as WB's naginata is behind him. it is almost confirmed to be haki clash at minimum because of black lightning.). then we see the twin peaks of god valley, and a frame of a navy guy's eyes falling out

10 - one of the peaks falls down! (this is very likely a side effect of either WB's fruit, or rocks completely overpowered him). we see some pirates scrambling from the fall. eris and bb are shown again

11 - pirate and navy ships shown. CDs are scrambling and saying something. rayleigh and shakky are shown. there are atleast 2 dialogue boxes by narrator.

12 - dragon is shown almost broken (emotionally) (this is probably because according to him, he even lost the baby shanks)(he does not know that baby got into a chest, he was knocked out back then). ivankov is yelling at kuma (probably to ask him to think of their own safety too). Kuma hears someone from forest (this is eris and bb) (also rocks is approaching them, but these 2 things are not shown yet). we see capt. john injured holding his hand over his abdomen. next is a frame showing ganzui saying something, and (Seemingly) shiki is fleeing with a treasure chest (shiki's fruit is a levitation fruit, he can effectively float/fly)

13 - rocks reaches eris and bb. eris finds out rocks has been reversed (she has already seen reversal before, and know what is). she is scared, cries, says something, and starts running again. a frame of someone else (probably navy) firing cannon balls at eris/bb and rocks

14 - we are shown 3 frames of a close call of cannon balls hitting eris/bb and simultaneously one of rocks' swing is towards them. kuma pops up, teleports eris/bb (small note- we see 2 pops instead of one, so it is possible they landed different places. this is very young kuma with first day of his fruit, he does not have much control over it. this also explains a bit that we know that bb grew up as someone with no parents, and if we was tp'd with eris, that would not fit). then sees rocks attack and seemingly pops himself away. we see a big blast along that ledge of land (and my guess is cannons had little to do with it. rocks is terrifyingly powerful right now)

15 - we see imu and some "spoken at distance speech bubbles". there are 2 speech bubles by garp and roger (distance ones) overlayed at a port scene with some CDs shown. we see rocks attack more pirates

16 - we see big haki thunders. overlayed on twin peaks (now a mono peak i guess)(or you say one peak(ce)(get it? one piece)(i will see myself out)). rocks comes in front of garp and roger, and we see his winged form very clearly now.

17 - here is another leaked bit i have listened. the speech bubles are the "rays coming out of it ones" which are usually used for thoughts. this is very likely rocks' thoughts and both roger and garp are able to hear it. (roger is holding hands over his years probably because it is his first time) garp is just confused. leaks hint this to be "Voice of All Things" (VoAT) (we know that roger was able to hear VoAT because there was that bit of him hearing the sea kings. we also know that luffy is also kinda able to hear VoAT, but this is first of us for garp(more fuel to nepo piece i guess)). from prior leaks, we know what rocks is saying here - "kill me"!. we see rocks "crying". garp and roger are shocked. we see next frame as rocks charges towards them for attack. chapter over.

PS: this is my first time doing translation/description, and it is a very hard job ( and i have not even translated any speech bubbles). So i would like to retroactively thank all leakers and translators for their jobs.

 

This may be a "hot" one, considering lots of people do not like anything nuclear. If you would want to know my "bias", well I have always been "pro nuclear". So if you want to take this claim with huge mountains of salts, feel free to do so.

Here is a relevant wiki article for radiation hormesis. This is a proposed effect that certain amounts of radiation exposure may even be beneficial instead of harmful as LNT may suggest.

TL;DW for folks who do not want to watch video (I have not included examples or numbers)

  • Radiation from natural sources (like radioactive bananas you eat, or from soil or space) are always present.

  • Most nuclear safety guidelines consider that there are no "safe limits" of exposure to radiation. For example, there are safe limits of some metals in our body, there is no limit for mercury or lead exposure. There is a required amount of vitamins you need, but there is also a limit beyond which they are not safe. Radiation is treated like mercury in guidelines.

  • If it has no safe limits, then due to natural exposure, places with higher background exposure must have naturally higher rates of cancers developing - but the thing is, experiments and data collected does not match.

  • Your body has natural means to repair damage done by radiation, and below a certain limit, your body can withstand (and arguably benefit, see the linked article) the radiation.

  • Over estimating danger due to radiation leads to large scale paranoia, and leads to general public be scared of nuclear disasters, when they are not as bad ast they may seem.

And pre-emptively answering some questions I am expecting to get

  • Do you support nuclear bombs? Hell no. We should stop making all kinds of bombs, not just nuclear.

Are there not better means of renewable energy generation like

  • solar? - no, you still need rare erath metals, you need good quality silicon, and you need a lot of area. Until we have a big "stability" bump in perovskite solar cells, it is not the best way. is it better than fossil fuel? everything is better than fossil fuel for practical purposes.

  • wind? geothermal? - actually pretty good. but limited to certain geographies. if you can make them, they are often the best options.

  • hydro? - dams? not so much. There are places where they kinda make sense, for example really high mountains with barely any wildlife or people. otherwise, they disturb the ecosystem a lot, and also not very resistant to things like earthquakes or flooding, and in those situations, they worsen the sitaution.

A neat theory I like by u/BelliboltEnjoyer - https://reddit.com/user/BelliboltEnjoyer

 

A Energy point of view to define physical limit of computation from mass.

It does not require much knowledge on QM or computers, just skip the specific numbers if you are unfamiliar with them, as exact numbers are irrelevant.

I got redirected to this article from another piece - https://seirdy.one/posts/2021/01/12/password-strength/

which tries to find the sufficient amount of bits for a password to be safe - assuming we use all energy in universe
