>What would happen if a lava sun collided with an ice sun?
>What would happen if the outer core of a lava sun hardened like it does here on Earth?
>What would happen if a lava sun became so cold it turned into an ice sun?

Did you know that the outer core of a lava sun is so hot that it would make Earth lava catch on fire if you threw some at the lava sun?

Heh... not bad, kid. Not bad at all. Your meme, I mean. It's not bad. A good first attempt. It's plenty dank... I can tell it's got some thought behind it... lots of quotable material...
But memeing isn't all sunshine and rainbows, kid. You're skilled... that much I can tell. But do you have what it takes to be a Memester? To join those esteemed meme ranks? To call yourself a member of the Ruseman's Corps? Memeing takes talent, that much is true. But more than that it takes heart. The world-class Memesters - I mean the big guys, like Johnny Hammersticks and Billy Kuahana - they're out there day and night, burning the midnight meme-oil, working tirelessly to craft that next big meme.
And you know what, kid? 99 times out of a hundred, that new meme fails. Someone dismisses it as bait, or says it's "tryhard," or ignores it as they copy/paste the latest shitpost copypasta dreamt up by those sorry excuses for cut-rate memers over at reddit. The Meme Game is rough, kid, and I don't just mean the one you just lost :^). It's a rough business, and for every artisan meme you craft in your meme bakery, some cocksucker at 9gag has a picture of a duck or some shit that a million different Johnny No-Names will attach a milion different captions to. Chin up, kid. Don't get all mopey on me. You've got skill. You've got talent. You just need to show your drive.
See you on the boards...

Everyone on /sci/ is a pure maths grad student studying p-adic analysis.

This recent eclipse has got me really focused on eye health...Now that i Have a full time job, I drive to work every morning and leave every evening when the sun is at full brightness, and I wonder, if this terrible for my eyes? I feel like this belongs on /sci/ because I am wondering about the sun's effect on our eye health. I try to wear sunglasses but sometimes they even seem to make it WORSE and more painful. What is the optimal, scientific way to protect your eye health when driving in extreme sun brightness?
>The length of a coastline is infinity
Are there any other fucky infinite phenomena like this?
proof?
>>9143110
ah i heard about this thing before, please remind me?
define "coastline"
if it is a certain density of seawater vertical to the Earth's center of gravity then it is most certainly not infinite
Sup medfags, check this out. I started pissing and shitting myself while at work, turns out this was the reason why.

Spondylolistesis plus disk degeneration. You need a fucking cat scan or an MRI to asses the caudal compression

ITT: Interesting brain-related/personality/consciousness stuff that you're wondering about.
Why do we sometimes beg to ourselves to do/not do something? What part of us are we begging to? Or am I just being schizophrenic?
>>9142950
Does depression exist as a separate subprocess from the rest of my personality? I often find it useful to "other" it, and I wonder if that lines up with anything physical, or if I'm just pseudo-science-ing myself into feeling a little better
>>9142950
if what we are experiencing is neural activity in the brain does this mean i stop existing after whatever neural pattern was in my brain goes away or changes

Fast forward to 16:40 for a pretty easy to understand lecture on neurobiology. I watched to about 40:00, it's explained very well but it's alot to take in.
I doubt it, but its such a tantalizing, unearthly thing. Could a tiny spinning motor used the repulsive varient to generate power?
maybe something piezoelectric?
They've demonstrated in a lab it's possible with enough energy you can convert virtual particles into photons, and by extension with an extreme amount of energy you could convert virtual particles into real particles. Could we reverse that equation? Could we convert actual particles, into virtual particles, and extract tons of energy? Also, what's preventing the machine from going wild and sucking up all matter in the universe converting it to virtual particles and energy?
>>9142915
Not really. Your motor idea sounds like pic related but replacing magnetism with the the casimir effect.
Casimir effect is a force. Forces and energy are not the same thing. The same principle exists as with magnets or gravity: the energy that can be produced by letting particles pull together with the Casmir effect is equal to the energy required to pull them apart again. You can't get any net gain in energy from a closed system.
How bad is incest with your cousin really?
>>9142910
Not really. I'd probably do it in a suitable context.
it's only bad if you cum inside her
there's actually a mathematical answer to this question, like an answer to "how much more likely is a negative recessive trait to manifest in a child born from incest with a cousin over a a child born from mating with a stranger" or something
There are a finite amount of 'things' in the universe, from which everything else is built right?
Call them whatever you want, quarks, atoms, it doesn't matter.
Would this mean that, suppose you had access to some sci-fi mumbo jumbo and were able to travel back in time, that when you appear, the universe will have more 'things' inside it that it is supposed to have.
I guess what I might be asking is; if the number of atoms inside the universe is a finite, discrete number and then you some how suddenly added to that number, what would happen?
Would the universe be overcapacity?
Would it just expand to fit as normal?
Even if the universe did have a maximum capacity at any given time, a single human would do very little.
>>9142803
Consider the time you've left: you subtracted a discrete number of things from the universe at that point, so it all works out on balance.
>>9142823
But between the point back in time he traveled to and now, he created energy from nothing and added it into the system. He could have also decreased the amount of entropy in the universe, even if it's a small amount, it still decreased. How can that ever work?

Searching google it seems to be from a History Channel documentary, so not a real photo.
It depicts this:
