@futzle guilty as charged 🫣😅

@gsuberland you're right - although I still wouldn't want to try with wet hands...

20260927-174831

@gsuberland Huh. Remember it's not the voltage that kills you, it's the current 🫣

@AnarchoNinaWrites I think he should wait until shortly after the midterms. 🤞

@rygorous oh wait, you meant...

@rygorous Antimatter has a hypothetical energy density of 9 x 10^16 J/kg, so with our 3.9 MT from above, we get about 3.5 x 10^26 J. Not too shabby.

For comparison, the gravitational binding energy of Earth is about 2.5 x 10^32 J, so it's not quite Death Star levels of annihilation, but I think it's safe to assume that everyone would have a Very Bad Day (TM) if the Antimatterhorn went off. 🫣

@rygorous OK, so an educated guess for the volume of the Matterhorn is 1,5 mil. m3. It's mostly composed of gneiss with a specific gravity of 2.6-2.9, let's go with 2.6 for a conservative estimate, so its weight is somewhere around 3.9 MT.

If this were just TNT, it would be about 2.4 MT and couldn't even remotely hold a candle to the Tsar Bomba (~ 50 MT), but we're a _serious_ supervillain, so antimatter it is.

@rygorous thanks for the nerdsnipe, I guess 😑😉

@Koefoed @turegjorup Jeg er altid overrasket hvor shitty og små den ser ud i fotos (esp. mobile phone fotos). I virkeligheden: WOAH. I telefonen: meh.

@koehntopp ... weil "Bild" und "Welt" darin kein Problem sehen 🤷

@jacattell I think @dirkschroedter might be the guy to ask

@Unixbigot *sigh* one can hope... 🙄

@Unixbigot Mirror universe fanfic?

@jonny Have you already installed Wireguard? Free VPN! *side-eying stack of Torrent files* 😇

20260925-070737

@isotopp I see what you did there 👏

20260925-070500

@jens entirely different city and school, entirely same situation here 🤢

Get well soon!

@Lapizistik hah, das kommt mir außerordentlich bekannt vor 😑

Hier im Wohnzimmer gurkt ein RAID 5 mit 3 x 4 TB Samsung Platten vor sich hin, und die erreichen auch so langsam das hintere Ende der bathtub curve... hab noch eine Reserveplatte im Schrank, aber wenn die durch ist, dann wird's teuer 🫣
