  1. This is easy for you... Looking north, the stars rise above horizon on east and set below horizon on west. I think. How to locate the north with the 'North star' if everything is moving ? Or everything revolves counterclockwise (at northern hemisphere) in a circle around the 'North star' , appearing as the pivot to all other stars motion ?
  2. Hi. Several days in salt water, the item shows zero corrosion. A cheaper test than a spectrometer. Now ready to put into operation under the sea. 😀
  3. Thank you, sir. What I have deduced in the last day is; Being the location very tropical, The higher cooling capability of the exterior unit overwhelms the inside unit forming ice in the fins, which blocks the air flow to the inside. The cold air not entering the inside; the thermostat is cranked to a lower temperature which makes the problem worse. Small slits in the ice formation launch any condensation droplets with high velocity mist wetting the wall by the vent register instead of dripping into the condensate tray under the evaporator. The pissed-off users crank the thermostat even lower worsening the behavior with a compressor that does not cycle. Did not check reality, he is 4000 miles away. As a larger matching proper 3 Ton indoor unit does not fit in the indoor niche; suggested to : - increase the indoor fan speed as possible with the proper motor jumper setting; -Set the thermostat to 24C and lower only if there is no ice formation, -Look frequently at what is going on head-into the evaporator and flashlight on hand. -Reduce cold losses by windows, doors, kitchen... Does it make sense; anything you would add ?
  4. Yes, several different behavior examples shown on that link from the same whatever 'isolated web co' I would need a new brain transplant to write code again 50 years late. Last brain transplant they gave me a refurbished. Not recommended ! If I could write that, would not be to warn me about memory usage, would be to stop the intrusion. 😡 Yes, closing the browser fixes it for a while until 'piles up' again.
  5. Thanks. Digging into territory am not familiar with, the system monitor reported over 60% of CPU activity from two "isolated web container" from this Firefox shiiiit. How to excomunicate such from my compfuser, forever ?. I did not ask for its intrusion, whatever that is, and do not understand what it does, do not want to understand, and just want it out of taking over my resources. Am also after another browser to kick Firefox out, that can work on Ubuntu 20.04 Thanks for any of your proven suggestions. I do have search engines too. Found am not alone ! ---> https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/quot-firefoxcp-isolated-web-content-quot-is-slowly-consuming-all/td-p/1872 experts; please shoot this intruder dead !
  6. Hi. My brother is paranoid because just found that the central air conditioning equipment at his home installed 30 years ago has always had a 3 ton exterior unit and a 2 ton interior. What should the behavior of such mismatch ? Am not an expert in the field to answer without 'maybes' and 'sometimes' Anyone around knows ? Question 2: What behavior should be expected if some technician fed refrigerant R410 in equipment that calls for R22 ? Anyone knows ?
  7. Good day. A spring of stainless steel appearance is attracted to a magnet. As there is diamagnetic and paramagnetic stainless steels, I would like to find out. Half submerged in salt water for a day now; am supposed to see if corrodes. What is a way to find what metal is it made of ? The manufacturer did not want to reveal when asked. 😒
  8. Regards. My compfuser idling for about 10+ minutes untouched since the last site visited. Fan speeds up. Seen that at certain sites that demand? more processing resources, but how it happens while doing nothing ? Switching to another site the fan returned to its low speed state. Is there under-the-table activity pushed by some web sites, in the magnitude of raising processing ? Can it be related to operative system or to cookies and alike ?
  9. Thanks. Discharge of black waters to sea is restricted to beyond 3 miles offshores for 'untreated' raw sewage if I remember well, but do not know limits for 'treated' If treated means with dead/no living organisms in it, can be achieved fast and easy. If 'treated' means also without certain chemicals, heavy metals, toxins, am unsure how that 'treatment' is done. The seawater contaminating groundwater as mentioned; cannot be worse than septic sewers contaminating groundwater wells in the same neighborhood. I believe maaaany properties have both in the same or adjacent land tracts. How is that prevented ? Curiosity... Groundwater wells near locations with inland ClNa salt mines yield salty water ?
  10. Good day. If coastal cities/islands implemented parallel water supplies using seawater for mostly toilet supply merging flow to same current sewer systems; what would happen to typical sewage treatment plants ? Can they deal with seawater or needs to be a different treatment ? If this has to be in some chemistry forum, please move.
  11. The guy on the video does the onion chopping almost as well as me, but it is fine, he will get trough the learning curve... Thanks for the suggestions above. The addition of egg, bread crumbs, corn meal... is not what I see at a 'fast food' drooly hamburger. There has to be a trick somewhere. Perhaps mister MacDonald and friends know. Do I open another thread for how to successfully stick grated garlic to frying/fried potatoes ? or add it here ? In USA they do not know what fried potatoes are unless you say french fries... It is skidding off-topic into pancakes +... Will not do it by keyboard nor asking to nor buying one of these --- > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPTcIutsoTg&ab_channel=LiveScience
  12. Hello. I buy some ground meat. Add some salt and pepper, sometimes chopped onions, form the patties. Everything falls apart on the frying pan. More when flipping. If it was a barbecue grill, it would all fall in pieces into the gaps. What is the trick to keep it in one piece ? 😟
  13. Regards. Lenz law shown here ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7tIi71-AjA How to, where to, probe, measure, confirm a voltage presence of the eddy current as in the copper pipe shown above ?
  14. Hello. There is stony and metallic meteorites with all their sub-types and in-between compositions. Could these differences correspond to the crust, mantle, core and in-between portions of exploded/collided celestial bodies ? In other words, do stony meteorites come from geological crusts, iron ones from core fragments ?

  16. In my ignorance, did not know until today, Pluto had already been photographed several years ago. In case someone else has not seen it before, am attaching an image of its surface found on the web : - Widht is 50 miles - Shoreline of Sputnik planum. By the telescopic Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) aboard New Horizons, 14 July 2015. Enjoy.
  17. Hi. Read somewhere that explosions or collisions of stars created much of the minerals that traveled trough space until stroke earth creating the deposits mined today. Is it reasonable to believe all planets and moons that existed then and in the same neighborhood received a similar 'rain of imported' minerals/elements ? Can soil similarities among planets tell they were nearby at that time; and dissimilarities mean they were then far apart ?

  19. Greetings. A couple of sewing needles or pins pressing onto lead solder blobs can provide decent contact to recharge a lithium cell. No mysteries there. If the contraption will be used under sea water after recharged, and some sort of gel covers the contact blobs; discharging and corrosion could be avoided. What product can allow piercing to reach contact and when pins are retracted, be a decent insulating closure ? Am thinking of something like a silicone sealer that never cures, and does not dissolve in water... What would you suggest ? Electrical source-----------------> gel solder blob
  20. There is no institution that regulates, controls or rules the english language. So any effort hits a brick wall of public used to say whatever with nothing to obey. Everyone forgot to say 'gasoline' or 'laboratory' and a thousand more; mail and male pronounced equal; being laziness and lacking care or respect for the language main causes.
  21. Now we are into larger and larger stones. Perhaps the answer is :
  22. Do not forget "any large" megalithic stone will have to be narrower than your narrow channel in order to fit in it, limiting its 'larginess' to something pole shaped like a broom stick floating in 100 litres of Hg. What is the use of a not really heavy stone stick deserving that elaborated transportation ? 🙄
  23. Editing Murphy's law' from above : And never forget 'Murphy's law' : The nearest Hg mine will be a thousand kilometres from your megalythic stones, guarded by enemy armies that will want payment under the table and your first born, and the mine will deplete after 90 litres mined, short of your plans, will take much longer to transport the weight of the mercury so the megalythic moving contract will expire giving you zero income, nobody to buy the mercury or feed your hungry crew and transport donkeys. It is life ! 😩
  24. There is a problem with the Give me ? Go mining it yourself. After all the effort and time spent prospecting, mining, refining it and digging, filling your channel, (that is 'if it floats') the megalithic stone will be already hundred of metres away by pushing it on older roller/wheeled methods. With no poisoned workers. And never forget Murphy's law' The nearest Hg mine will be a thousand kilometres from your megalythic stones. Do you know what is a 'narrow' channel filled with 100 litres of mercury ? Is it 10cm x 10cm x 10 metres ? Do you know the volume and weight * of the megalithic stone that by floating it on mercury can be pushed by floating ?. Do you realize that in order to move the megalithic stone 10 metre your channel has to be 20 metres long , to occupy the next 10 metres forward, and to empty the mercury already traveled 10 metres behind ? *If you know after calculating, the weight and size of the megalithic stone that can fit on a 100 litre mercury filled narrow channel it may be around 5cm x 5cm x 5m. Can be moved on a shoulder of one person several kilometres in one day with no mercury channel contraption. Forget about your 'hundred of tonnes' on 100 litres Hg dream.
  25. Mister guardian, who is "you" ? Me or all of us ? Because I have not done anything to deserve your attitude that I will regret something. And what has to be done to avoid regretting whatever you mean ?
