Less so for aircraft, as Comet operators found out, and presumably spacecraft.

The most ridiculous capsule house ads on Instagram

0:09
veneers and all those screws borrow from
0:11
his aunt you've probably seen now uh I'm
0:14
Tony the light guy right with all his
0:16
different accents well I just found the
0:19
latest Chinese Meme and again I have no
0:21
idea why they're taking to Instagram and
0:23
perhaps Tik talk to do this and uh we
0:25
know some of them do have like a pretty
0:27
important Mission like Donan Jong which
0:30
talked about is backed by the Chinese
0:32
State export system so they're probably
0:34
a state Enterprise but let's look at
0:36
this one here so my new discovery is
0:38
something called Eon capso house
0:40
basically it's like little mobile homes
0:43
that they built maybe using galvanite
0:45
square steel who knows so they got
0:46
164,000 followers on Instagram and some
0:49

1. I was debating whether this should go into spacecraft design.

2. Thirty eight square metres would be close enough to forty and a half square metres, or twenty seven tonnes.

3. Twenty seven tonnes makes a sizeable suite.

4. Thirty eight metre suite grants instant charisma.

5. Must have for any Vargr pack leader.

6. Any additional space capsule house can be monetized as an Airbnb.

7. Vargr pack could be running a motel, love or otherwise.

8. What kind of pack leader can't keep his mate from cheating?

9. Instant charisma loss, if it goes public.

A. I suppose, you could fit a twenty seven tonne suite into a hundred tonne starship.

B. Then rent a space in a spacecraft park.

C. In theory, the space capsule house could fit into a cutter module.
 
The Strange Origin Story behind this Iconic Megacity

01:04 KATSUHIRO OTOMO, Tokyo & Bōsōzoku
1:47 A JAPANESE ECONOMIC MIRACLE
02:48 TOKYO BAY & NEO TOKYO
03:41 Metabolism & Kenzo Tange
06:17 The Olympic Stadium
09:34 The Colours of Akira
10:57 Fritz Lang's Metropolis
13:17 The Soul Of A City

In this video, we explore the origins of Akira's iconic Neo-Tokyo, delving into its roots in post-war Tokyo and the visionary ideas that shaped it. We uncover how Katsuhiro Otomo's experiences and inspirations, including the chaotic streets of 1970s Tokyo and the influence of youth biker gangs, contributed to the creation of this futuristic megacity. We also reveal the surprising influence of German filmmaker Fritz Lang, whose 1920s film Metropolis inspired Akira's cityscape. Join us as we trace the architectural and cultural elements that led to the birth of one of the most iconic anime settings ever created.




1. Aggressive rebuilding.

2. Chinese variant - tofu dreg.

3. Bike gangs - Hells Angels.

4. Neon advertizing.

5. Metabolism.

6. Function over form.

7. Revival symbolism.

8. Current standard seems to be twenty seven inches, hundred plus hertz, and fourteen forty pee.

9. Organic growth.

A. Skywards.

B. Density and layering.

C. Soul.
 
AI could prove that reality doesn’t exist, physicists say

A group of physicists wants to use artificial intelligence to prove that reality doesn’t exist. They want to do this by running an artificial general intelligence as an observer on a quantum computer. I wish this was a joke. But I’m afraid it’s not.




1. Photons are real.

2. Cats know they're God.
 
Vacuum Suit Gas Canister Valve

1. So I hit a flea market this Saturday, and didn't find anything compelling.

2. Then a thrift store, where I picked up a tilted wooden magnetic knife board, which I figured I could attach my screwdrivers to and other computer maintenance paraphernalia, fitting in with the ambiance of my apartment.

3. And a basic Sodastream dispenser.

4. Pressed the button, heard a slight whoosh, and figured I should recover the money on the gas cylinder deposit.

5. Back home, took it apart, and was suprised to see another branded cylinder.

6. Replaced it with one from the Crystal model, I think, since I had bought that second hand as well, and it worked.

7. Suddenly, it dawned on me.

8. The reason that Sodastream has two basic types of gas cylinders, which somewhat annoyed me when I had bought the Art model hydration pack on sale.

9. Sodastream must have patented the second cylinder valve, since the first appeared to be universal.

A. So a Traveller, may want to check that every oxygen bottle he obtains, actually is compatible with the space suit he's utilizing.

B. On a sidenote, screw in systems may actually be better than push in.

C. My experience with the Art model is that the gas seal isn't tight (enough).

D. I bet the current system was designed for convenience.

E. Another one would be, that Sodastream may have been ripping everyone off with their canister prices.

F. Hence, the need for a new patented valve, much like Nestle's Dolce Gusto.

Mass of 1.0L water = 1000 g

Mol H2O in 1.0 L = 1 000 g / 18 g/mol = 55.55 mol

If H2O is subjected to electrolysis, the following occurs

2H2O ↔ 2H2 + O2

2 mol H2O will produce 1 mol O2

The 55.55 mol water from the litre will produce 55.55/2 = 27.8 mol O2

At normal temperature and pressure , 1 mol O2 has volume 24.5 L

The 27.8 mol O2 has volume = 27.8 mol * 24.5 L/mol = 681 L O2

Normal air is +/- 20% O2

You have sufficient oxygen to regenerate 681 L * 4 = 2,724 L of ”stale” gas that has been totally depleted of O2 . You will produce 3,400 L of breathable air. How long will this support life. I have no idea. But it is a practical proposition to recover oxygen from water in a closed environment such as a space craft.

The amount of air in 1 gallon or 1 liter of water is negligible. Water is primarily composed of hydrogen and oxygen molecules, with no significant amount of trapped air.

Using electrolysis to split water into hydrogen and oxygen can indeed be a viable approach for generating breathable air in space or other isolated environments. Here's a more detailed explanation:

One gallon (3.785 liters) of water can be split into approximately 0.4 cubic meters of hydrogen gas and 0.2 cubic meters of oxygen gas through electrolysis.
The resulting hydrogen and oxygen can then be recombined in a fuel cell to generate electricity and produce water, which can be reused in the electrolysis process.
The oxygen produced can be used for breathing, while the hydrogen can be used for various other purposes, such as generating electricity or propulsion.
Assuming an average adult human requires approximately 0.84 cubic meters of oxygen per day for respiration, the oxygen produced from 1 gallon (3.785 liters) of water could theoretically sustain one person for about 9 days.
However, in practice, the efficiency of the electrolysis and fuel cell processes, as well as other factors such as leakage and system maintenance, would need to be taken into account, reducing the actual duration of the life support system.
Nevertheless, the principle of using electrolysis to split water and generate breathable oxygen is a well-established concept and has been successfully demonstrated in various space missions and research projects. The specific duration and efficiency would depend on the scale and design of the overall life support system.

There is no air, but there are about 2,350 liters of oxygen.

A gallon of water has a mass of 3.785 kg or 8.8 lbs weight (on Earth). A water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, with atomic weights, 1 and 16 respectively. Thus the atomic mass of water is 18.

Oxygen at standard temperature and pressure (STP, 0C and 10^15 Pa (one bar)) is 1.429 g/liter.
Hydrogen at STP is 0.08988 g/liter
Water has a atomic mass of 18, made up of 16 parts oxygen an 2 parts hydrogen by mass.

If you just separate out the oxygen then:

(16/18) parts oxygen/water * 3,785g water / 1.429 g/liter = 2,354.4 liters of oxygen at STP

How long this will last depends on what level of CO2 you can tolerate, but a human consumes about 500 liters of oxygen a day. So one person, less than five (5) days.
 
Most commercial fuel pumps start at 50LPM with some running up to 120 LPM for ultra-fast delivery. Flow rates above 70LPM require the larger 1” nozzle that does not fit into the filler neck of cars or smaller vans. It is our opinion that high-speed pumps at 90LPM only really suits HGV's or similar large vehicles.


Fourteen thousand litres divided by fifty to a hundred litres per minute.

Two hundred eighty to one hundred forty minutes.

Or four hours forty minutes to two hours twenty minutes, per tonne refuelled.
 
The Shrinking Business of Sneakers

5 years ago, Nike and Adidas were at their peak. These legacy brands had evolved from low-margin apparel into high-margin footwear. Sneakers became assets with unprecedented appreciation and resale value. Brands earned record profits as stores were crowded, social media went wild over the latest drop, and pairs sold out within minutes. There was no rhyme or reason behind this craze. With so much money at stake, low interest rates, and insatiable demand, no one stopped to question why. That was, until people stopped buying.

Media dinosaurs and content farms have attempted to explain the fall of Nike and Adidas through age-old business tropes and boomer interviews for easy clicks. They push low-effort analysis that it’s because Jordans and Yeezys are unfashionable or that Nike simply made too many shoes. What these amateurs get wrong is that revenue is a lagging indicator - not a leading one.

The sneaker industry is a modern case study on not just how fast consumer markets can change, but also the importance of adaptation and expertise in business. If we truly want to understand the business of sneakers - we have to go into this world and see the hustle of the few who are left.

Moment Russian films himself being hunted by Ukrainian drone

New footage has shown a Ukrainian drone chasing a Russian war reporter around the ruins of a factory before exploding.

The menacing hum of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) can be heard getting louder as it hones in on the building in the Donbas region in Ukraine’s east.

As the drone comes into view, the terrified reporter says in Russian: “It’s in the factory!”. A man on a radio then shouts back: “Topol, Topol” - a common Russian surname.

The drone then loudly explodes less than a metre from the man, shaking the camera but appearing to leave him unharmed. “Phew”, he exclaims.


 
A catboat (alternate spelling: cat boat) is a sailboat with a single sail on a single mast set well forward in the bow of a very beamy and (usually) shallow draft hull. Typically they are gaff rigged, though Bermuda rig is also used. Most are fitted with a centreboard, although some have a keel.[1] The hull can be 3.7 to 12.2 metres (12 to 40 ft) long with a beam half as wide as the hull length at the waterline.[2] The type is mainly found on that part of the Eastern seaboard of the USA from New Jersey to Massachusetts.[3]: 92

The Fairmile D motor torpedo boat was a type of British motor torpedo boat (MTB) and motor gunboat (MGB),[1] conceived by entrepreneur Noel Macklin of Fairmile Marine and designed by naval architect Bill Holt for the Royal Navy. Nicknamed "Dog Boats", they were designed to be assembled in kit form mass-produced by the Fairmile organisation and assembled at dozens of small boatbuilding yards around Britain, to combat the known advantages of the German E-boats over previous British coastal craft designs. At 115 feet in length, they were bigger than earlier MTB or motor gunboat (MGB) designs (which were typically around 70 feet) but slower, at 30 knots compared to 40 knots.

Synopsys

After visiting well-maintained public toilets in Japan, I wondered why we lack them. Public toilets are scarce in North America, forcing people to buy items just to use facilities. Homeless people and those with medical conditions struggle the most. Public toilets in Japan are clean, artistic, and cost-effective due to private-public partnerships, unlike North American toilets that face vandalism and high maintenance costs. Clean, accessible toilets could improve public life and reflect cultural values. Do we see toilets as a basic human right?




We need bigger and better freshers.
