Because gaseous hydrogen consists of such a small molecule, very small leaks are common. In properly designed systems these very small leaks do not present a problem as the tiny amount of hydrogen released will not be enough to cause a flammable mixture in air.

>>1125742 👍 cool I was wondering about technique how to help people who have annoying inner conflict or something, and you know, that nearby amygdala anxious neural circuit is firing and excited. I kno.. bout time.. on one hand, like time heals & stuff & action potential of neural sensetivity reduced after longer time. On another side, is like, when person expiriencing disturbing emotion\thought, and how to help change their focus, like, when they want to change focus, but deeper lizard brain cns , so I have technque idea about attention switching by engaging into other stimulus neural circuit, like... Singing a song! or playing instrument. why? 1) amygdala audio input bypass pfc 2) you increase other neuron firing by taking control of your actions, movements, rythm etc. sounds cool huh?

but local resources mostly never enough I've heard of this idea of self-relying Economic Zones, but idk . I'm not ultra consumerist whore, but Antarctica vs Saudi Arabia have pretty different resources I love when things manufactured locally, from music to high tech, but some resources, like rare earth minerals or chips come from only few places in world.

>Amphetamines are synthetic drugs that stimulate activity in the central nervous system through neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine. Amphetamines like Adderall, Ritalin, Dexedrine and Vyvanse are primarily prescribed for patients with ADHD it's an amphetamine but not a methamphetamine i think
>Methamphetamine is composed of amphetamine mixed with a variety of household substances. Drain cleaner, battery acid, paint thinner, or lighter fluid — all highly toxic to the human body — may all be used in the production of methamphetamine. dang
From what I've heard some places, ritalin's actually more comparable to coke than meth, but who knows really, it's not like a doctor or chemist told me that, it's probably something I read on reddit or something

>>1126029 There is a historical and cultural precedent to believing that truths obscured to people can be gleaned from psychic or spiritualistic activities, which is why we can accept them in works of fiction, even if they are entirely bogus Without any similar precedent, I think you'd have a very difficult job of selling your premise to any serious production company or platform

Something like monochrome art and gilded edges would look fucking sick, I think Still has that muted aura, but manages to sneak in some sauce
or selectively colored parts Like maybe having the priestess' cross be colored in gold, but otherwise monochrome, you know? I like that sort of coloring, but then I also generally like super vivid and saturated stuff, like... uh gimme a sec
yeah, color used to highlight, rather than just having it all be colored in Movies that pull that often come off as huffing their own farts, but it can work REALLY well when done with purpose
In my experience it's rarely really done with purpose beyond aesthetics, though Which is fine too, really, when it works I don't remember sin city well enough to really speak with confidence, but I think it worked fairly well there

i dislike the colors in netflix movies they all look the same studio with the same camera i s2g
S C
movies in general have for a REAL long time had awful visuals I mean I mentioned it back when it aired too, but it's not without reason Shogun got people so fucking excited when it OPENS on a super dark scene and you can actually see everything of any importance Like, you can SEE what's happening in the scene, and that's actually a fucking abberation in today's western live action selection
S C
like sure that's a TV show, but it's not like the issues are restricted to just movies or just tv shows it's fucking insane, but the visuals in a visual media have kinda lost consideration somehow
For SOME things, it's a deliberate choice to have the darkness obscure stuff, like obviously in Alien that was either deliberate or a happy accident that elevates the experience, but even in more recent, heavily CGI'd stuff, darkness is often used because it lets you kinda brush over some of the CGI jank And those, I think are fine But when the movie or series suddenly drops you in a scene where the characters are moving through a dark area and it actually is fucking pitch black and you can barely make anything out, it's usually without any reason beyond "it's dark" No concern for communicating anything beyond the darkness, and it's not even like it being dark is a very important aspect, meant to say something in itself either, it's literally just "it's dark here"
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
yea yea maybe some of it is directors hoping that everyone has an OLED screen with deep blacks to show off or whatever but idk probably just lazy CGI cope and a lack of artistry
I guess it kinda comes with the territory as the industry has very much lost a lot of the whole like, creative aspect to it Of course I'm sure the people working on stuff do their best and often have something to communicate, but they're really tied down by the demands of the people actually paying for it all
Obviously going further, but stuff like a ton of movies having some mandatory romantic b plot and whatever, shit you can go into movies with a bingo card and just check it off as you go, I don't believe that's just how everyone decides to write their stories, you know?
well, "romantic" the actual romance part is almost universally severely lacking and even calling it half-assed is an exaggeration it's just like, "you gotta have a love interest, for the focus groups" or something
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
gotta shovel out more content to make quarterly numbers artistic integrity? can we make that out of plastic moulds?
I actually think a lot of what separates the like, Named Directors, like Tarantino and stuff, is they don't follow these cookie cutter formulas much Obviously they're also REALLY good at what they do, no argument from me there, but whether it's because of who they are or who funds their stuff, maybe a combination, they have the freedom to just not follow those tropes nearly as closely, and they can tell the story they have in mind

Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
into the breach me
S C
maybe some tiles could have an effect, where being on it means capturing that piece requires effectively putting them in check first, you know? like you have to threaten with one piece and actually take with another That could lead to some interesting plays, at least It's obviously a different game than chess at that point, but it might be a cool game
also, is "sigh" like, the only word that's written into dialogue plainly but expected to be read as, well, a sigh rather than an actual word? I guess "pant" and such kinda fit, but usually those have asterisks or somethin around them to indicate it's a sound, not a word
hell, "sigh" is sometimes also written as "phew" instead and that's basically supposed to be read as is, which is kinda n- OH TSK\TCH for clicking your tongue, that's like this Mostly a jp thing though, I think? After all, "tsk tsk" is like, something you actually say in English
>>1126070 there are other words i can't remember them right now

whew is sometimes a word but sometimes its just whistling
S C
never seen it used for whistling, but I can buy it
really, calling it "clicking your tongue" is kinda stupid, cause I associate that wording more with the thing you do to make like a clong type sound like snapping your tongue from the back of your front teeth to the bottom of your mouth, you know

you might see all kinda of onomatopeia in books honestly

Anno
I think onomatopoeias in dialogue can vary wildly based on all sorts of factors, genre, time period of writing, cultural background of the author/editor/literary scene Like, something like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy relies on them for comedic purpose and to establish foreign or alien speaking You see something similar in Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels, where as a more standard fantasy or sci-fi novel would probably use descriptive text, not dialogue, to express these abnormal ways of taking And generally, they are absent entirely from a lot of what would be considered "high culture" or culturally relevant famous novels, unless they are important for expressing cultural accuracy in the way someone would authentically talk The choice to use them or not use them can also be useful for establish if a narrative is … like, a story being told, or a scene being seen After all, all narratives have a narrator, even if the narrator isn't a clear-cut character like a Watson. And when you have an invisible narrator, that invisible narrator usually takes on the voice of the author, or at least how the author would write formally. But the author can choose to write more informally, which often is considered more authentic, and a good device to use for that is incorporate into the dialogue of the characters the onomatopoeias they would normally use in casual conversation Of course this is all English literary shit, I know Japanese language is much more accepting of onomatopoeias in dialogue text, and I assume the standards differ for other languages and cultures too
