A lethal neutrino laser would be a literal god tier weapon. There would be no counter to it. You could have a bunker of solid lead that is lightyears thick, and the neutrino beam would still penetrate it. You could just aim through the earth to the other side as if the earth wasn't even there.

The only way to do it is literally a supernova explosion.

There's no such thing as "15 years ago", dude. You've been in this world like couple of minutes. All your memories are just stuff that this world has generated, just like the room you're in and this message you're reading.

Don't worry though, soon you'll find yourself in a whole different world, and believe that you've lived there for 30 years as a black female farmer.

OP here, So is the standard model wrong then about existence of particles like tachyons?

I could have sworn that back in the early 2000s this was already known simply because of the images being copies of other med stuff.

>After looking at the so-called code for a while, Gibbs realized he was seeing a common form of medieval Latin abbreviations, often used in medical treatises about herbs.

Really? If this truly was "a common form of medieval Latin abbreviations" I would have expected this to be decoded decades ago. This thing was sold by the Vatican, an institution well known for use of medieval Latin. Has this been verified by others?

This reminds me too much of then experts stating cuneiform writing was merely primitive Arabic.

>>9160023
It has not. So far the evidence is one unverified report in a magazine where he describes some similarities of diagrams.

Get up, don't go to lecture, pick up a book, read, do all excercises. Go to prof website, do supplementary excercises for lecture. Lunch. Watch todays lecture and write notes on topics not covered in book. Pick up another book, read, do all excercises. Read on topics i care about, do few excercises. Shitpost on 4chin for 20 minutes. College gym (24/7), shower, sleep.
Only ever got worse than A in english because i didn't study for it at all. The grind is real. But focus on research rather than grades, if i focused on what i love rather than classes, i'd have started doing research much sooner, it's much better for getting postdoc than perfect grades.

Ahahahahahahaha

You're smarter than someone stupid enough to throw away money on a name-brand school for undergraduate work. Not that Ivy-League schools necessarily much prestige out of their specialties anymore. A Harvard Law degree might still mean something, but not necessarily a Harvard degree in Chemistry or something (I don't actually know if Harvard has a good Chemistry program, but you get the idea. Pedigrees come with caveats).

Yes, it deteriorates with age and lack of exercise.

Are plastic neurons actually dynamic?

I'm sorry maybe you're saying something that makes sense and just using field-specific jargon, but it sounds like you're talking nonsense.

Everything causes cancer. CT Scanner makes radiation which is what causes the cancer. It's unlikely, but luck of the draw, desu.

Fucking magnets, how do they work?

>>9158973

They cause like 1000x more radiation exposure than an X-ray. It's a significant amount. Avoid getting a CT scan if you can help it.

Because sudden changes in temperature cause sudden changes in climate, which rather significantly disrupts ecosystems and societies that are built upon the current climates.

Generally, outcomes that are very costly, like global warming, are considered bad.

>>9158660
Because our society is adapted to current weather and temperatures. If the climate changes, we won't be able to grow crops in places where we used to be able to do so. Also some coastal cities will be underwater.
