I was at the right place at the right time! This week, in my backyard, I walked right into a massive ant war between two ant colonies. The determined ants were fighting over something quite surprising, but what was most surprising was what two ant colonies were warring with each other! Hope you guys enjoy this week's episode! Ant love forever!

Imagine discovering a new ant species and being able to give it a scientific name. That dream just got a little bit closer to becoming a reality this week. In this episode, we return to #Antopia, my backyard, where I happened to discover a peculiar new ant that I hadn't yet seen. Upon research, I was shocked to discover that we may have stumbled upon a novel ant discovery! Hope you enjoy this week's episode! Ant love forever!

Finally my dream has come true, in a remote part of the world I found a perfect little island paradise to make my survival videos on. The island even has a natural mangrove system with giant Mud Crabs and some unknown species of fish living in it.

Out beyond the western hills past lands of sleet and snow lies a place of calm and warmth neath' autumn's yearning glow The people there live humble lives the likes of which we wish we knew but come with me there now, my friends, the pumpkins welcome you.

Trying out a proper Dwarf Fortress stream today! We'll see: - A slug man adventurer with a propensity for apes/monkeys - A dwarven fort constructed on an evil coast - A little bit of MSpaint - Surprisingly few technical difficulties!

New York City officials recently released a PSA on what to do in the event of a nuclear attack despite the likelihood of an incident occurring in or near the city being very low. NBC News’ Isa Gutiérrez reports on how Mayor Eric Adams claims the move comes amid rising tensions in Ukraine.

In the 1970s and 80s, the Soviet Union put 5 landers on the surface of Venus and they each survived for over 30 minutes. No one has tried it since.

It is no secret that Youtube is quick to demonetize and censor videos about subjects like Scientology and the Chinese government. It is something that is never reported in the media but if you watch any of the creators that this happens too they all mention it. China Uncensored is definitely biased against China but they do not try to hide it. This video talks about what the big boys at Google and YouTube are doing to help China and other places keep any negative stuff about them off.

Jack heads to Amsterdam for an exclusive first ride/drive of the remarkable BeTriton. Part e-bike, part boat, part camper, it might just be one of the strangest vehicles we've ever featured on the Fully Charged Show. But is it real? Does it work? Will it float?? We put a very large man in it and pushed him out to sea to find out.
This is the coolest thing I have seen in a minute.

The Nobel prize in physics is typically awarded to scientists who make sense of nature; those whose discoveries render the universe more comprehensible. But the 2022 Nobel has been awarded to three physicists who revealed that the universe is even stranger than we thought thanks to Quantum Entanglement

I had no idea that the Hellraiser characters ever made it to cartoons but apparently that was a thing. This is on Extreme Ghostbusters which I had never heard of the variant. Anyway, here it is the Hellraiser people on cartoon ghostbusters.

It's been 30 days since Uranus first appeared in the sky. At first, it looked like our Moon had found itself a stellar partner. But then, we understood something much, much bigger was headed our way. What caused Uranus to become so unstable? How could this epic collision change the ice giant? And what's with this horrific stink? Ugh.

Santa Cruz del Islote in northern Colombia is the most crowded island on Earth, with density of population a staggering 68,000 people per square kilometer. I went there and tried everything that the most densely populated island in the world offers.

The Fine Structure Constant is one the strangest numbers in all of physics. It’s the job of physicists to worry about numbers, but there’s one number that physicists have stressed about more than any other. That number is 0.00729735256 - approximately 1/137. This is the fine structure constant, and it appears everywhere in our equations of quantum physics, and we’re still trying to figure out why.

Precious metals like gold, silver, platinum, and rhodium are expensive because they're rare in Earth's crust. But are they rare in the universe? Why is it so hard to make some of the chemical elements? Where do heavy metals come from, anyway? Turns out, we can blame it all on neutron stars and some oddities of the periodic table.
 
General chit-chat

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
