if there's anything i know about batteries, it's that they are made up of lead, acid, and crabs. so we're basically turning the ocean into a big battery? drat maybe humanity is smarter than i thought

Wasn't there an article recently about how it turns out that the way they calculated iceberg melting for climate modeling had been wrong for as long as they've been doing it Anyway my girlfriend just got back from having to go to a funeral in LA and I feel like the thread would appreciate this exchange where she was considering a nap at a rest stop but was slightly worried about if falling asleep in the car in the heat would be safe. I grew up in California and the place seems a little more hosed than i remember

There was a whole stack of grocery bags in one of the carts in the corral yesterday, I took it home to play with it. Very thick and satisfying to slap on a table but hell if I know what I'm going to do with it. I'd find some wildlife to feed it to but that poo poo disappeared years ago

I had not heard of this wood pellet industry because nobody does that around here, but apparently this is a big thing in Europe and viewed as a good alternative clean fuel. Turns out to be straight bullshit, they are just clear cutting forests and grinding the whole tree up when the price is good https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1567445108487819265 Love all the unnecessary steps to make a "green" product.

California on my mind. A few years ago we were camping at a place somewhere in southwestern Cali called Success Lake. We pitched our tent in the "shade" but it didn't matter, it was like trying to sleep on a stove. Not a restful night. Didn't help that Success Lake was overrun by giant cockroaches. There was also a huge fat happy toad in the showers. Not sure where she fit in the metaphor but she'd definitely found her niche.

A Bakers Cousin posted:horseshoe crab blood farms running dry apparently they’re not crabs. have some horseshoe theory: quote:The subphylum Chelicerata (from New Latin, from French chélicère, from Ancient Greek χηλή (khēlḗ) 'claw, chela', and κέρας (kéras) 'horn')[1] constitutes one of the major subdivisions of the phylum Arthropoda. It contains the sea spiders, horseshoe crabs, and arachnids (including harvestmen, scorpions, spiders, solifuges, ticks, and mites, among many others), as well as a number of extinct lineages, such as the eurypterids (sea scorpions) and chasmataspidids e: this thing is cool

I was just reading about this a few months ago, so many people live in the lahar flow zones of Rainier it's kind of crazy:  When you climb up Mt Rainier you hear rockslides from all the rumbling and movement near the top, it's really cool.

I'd wait until the USGS upgrades the threat level beyond a green before I start to worry about Mount Rainier https://www.usgs.gov/volcanoes/mount-rainier

mawarannahr posted:yeah better wait for the government to decide if a threat is bad. don’t come crying here when it explodes faster than expected When it comes to a volcano that is as closely monitored as Mount Rainier, yeah kind of. When a volcano is properly monitored there are ton of indicators that will tell whether or not a volcano is getting ready to erupt. Unless there is a significant magma intrusion, with accompanying earthquakes and land uplift, there isn't going to be any eruption. If there is an ongoing magma intrusion, then it's going to be detected in a volcano as closely monitored as Mount Rainier. They're never going to be able to say "the volcano is going to erupt on September 9th at 19:43 pacific time" or something like that, but if there's a magma intrusion causing a significant risk of eruption it's going to be picked up on, and the volcanos threat level will be increased.
