I'm fairly sure you can collapse most UI elements though.

While it is true that exercise itself does not make you spend much energy, doesn't strength training build additional muscle which in turn makes you need more energy to maintain that muscle, so you increase your basal metabolic rate? Sounds like it'd be more effective for losing weight than cardio on principle.

They don't just "bounce away", some of its quarks turn into different ones through interactions, and that is enough to class that process as a decay.

Also, quarks can't bounce away from each other. Lone quarks do not and cannot exist in nature, as far as we know.

If you enable nested virtualization in your host and shove Valorant in a VM with Hyper-V (through what I believe is a feature in Windows, but forgot the name) Valorant should actually run. Or at least it did a few months ago, not sure if it does work now. Worth a try.

Officials are probably more educated than the general populace, since they almost always need a university degree, but enlisted personnel might even be high school dropouts, so I wouldn't trust any regular soldier to be humble and respectful.

Of course there is. It's vital to check your calculations in some way or another, and cross checking with other humans that know what they're doing ought to yield the correct answer eventually. I suppose this is mostly useful if you find nobody that knows how to use library X, and everyone uses Y, so the only other practical option to cross check are other humans.

Sure, the stuff in the tray goes away, but Wine is not a sandbox. Software can still look into your filesystem and processes. You need Flatpak for proper sandboxing.

Luminosity is the number of particles (in the LHC's case, protons) flowing per unit area and unit time.

Additionally, integrated luminosity is luminosity integrated over time, and is just the number of events produced per unit area. It is the main metric used when CERN releases data and shares just how many events are in a given data set; this is done such that you can take the cross section of a given event (like Higgs production), multiply it by this value, and get how many events of that type happen (how many Higgs were produced).

You clearly didn't think your comment through. Let's say it's your first time cooking. If you have no idea how much of each ingredient you should add, how in the world are you supposed to make a decent meal? I personally fudged a few myself putting too little spice or too many pickles.

That is not quite true. Miners that know what they're doing will undervolt their cards in order to improve power efficiency, which makes cards run cooler and at lower power.

A bigger problem in getting power from fusion is dealing with the resulting neutrons. You can't redirect them out the exhaust, so it's energy you've lost (unless you harness the thermal power of the reactor rather than straight up using it for thrust); they bombard the reactor and can cause regular matter to become radioactive...

> If you're traveling at 10 m/s as you go out of the gravity well you go faster and faster because time speeds up, but your velocity per unit time stays the same.

You seem to be confusing coordinate time with proper time. The time you experience as you get out of a gravity well is proper time, which, as a sibiling comment said, is something you obtain when you do the path integral of the path you travel. This time is not exactly affected by dilation. Anything traveling with you will not have its time go faster or slower. Anything that is not traveling with you, say stationary on Earth, will indeed have its passage of time shifted with respect to you.

Coordinate time is the time observed by an observer at the center of the gravity well, looking at you (not always, but generally so for most calculations. Also, observer = origin of frame of reference) and that is what is morphed and bent around. Since you're an observer as well, you also see other points experience time differently, since from your point of view, they're moving away from you.

Why not just use a separate program? I personally use Syncthing to sync my notes, among other things. It's peer to peer, doesn't even need an internet connection if your devices are on the same LAN.
