It’s been 14 years since sandy hook happened?!

I was actually thinking about something like that recently. I read a book by Peter Hamilton that had biomechanoid space ships incubating in jovian orbit because of the radiation, and then the other day there was an article somewhere about (potentially) radiotrophic fungi in the chernobyl exclusion zone and I was thinking you could line a spacecraft/station with that stuff. I guess it’s no surprise that melanin is just stupid good at absorbing ionizing radiation since that’s what is has evolved to do

I wonder if you could make a grid in 3 dimensions that could harvest energy as the nodes change position relative to each other, almost like a piezoelectric system on a macro scale edit: i’m kinda stoned so the ideas are flowing freely lol

where is the wind turbine and tidal energy generator ??

Yeah, things usually turn out that way. It seems like it a good idea but id bet the efficiency would be low enough that it would be better to just have separate machines. Maybe if you scale it up enough it would be worthwhile

It looks like those wind generators are anchored somewhere below the surface which makes sense. Could you attach something along the shaft that will rise and fall with the surface level to also help generate power? I know ive seen theoretical machines that can harness waves for energy and it seems like you could combine these two methods into one apparatus

Elizabeth Warren also seems to be speaking sense in a group of nonsensical liberals from what I’ve seen

in principle this is pretty much exactly the kind of thing we should use complex algorithms for, always in tandem with medical professionals of course. in execution I’m sure we will fuck it up
