Watching Mr robot for first time.

Few episodes in, I think I know the twist that's coming....

good morning nostr, freedom tech is hope 🫡

🚨 NOSTRFLASH 🚨

OK, there is a lot of news on various outlets about LK-99 and the ongoing race to validate/refute of 3 Koreans who claim to have created the world’s first room temperature superconductor.

I will give a quite info dump here.

1). WTF is this? Room temp superconductors (RTSC) are basically unobtainium. This is the stuff in the Avatar movie. It was calculated earlier this week that it would take an exascale machine (1x human is 20 petaflops) around 100 million years to brute force a 50:50 chance of discovering such a material. It’s a super hard problem.

2). Why do we care? Such a material can move electricity with zero resistance, this means no heat or waste from electronics. It means super dense chips, data centres without thermal limits, it means powerful enough magnets to hold proper fusion plasma, it means quantum computers with no thermal error, it means science instruments with no noise, zero loss transmission lines, vastly superior battery tech, proper ionic space engines.

That just some of the stuff we can predict today, there are no doubt many totally unforeseeable things too. It’s basically a completely new paradigm of human capabilities. It’s on par with humans discovering coal.

It means the 21st century will be unrecognisable compared to 20th century, as information and energy technologies are completely reset at a higher science foundation.

3). Is it real? Currently betting markets are 50:50 having been only 5-12% positive last week. The consensus is shifting towards “this is real” that’s not how these things usually go.

What do I know?

I have read the background and the science papers and spoken to a few people. I am the sort of person who reads patents as a hobby, have seen BS claims before. This looks real, has a new hypothesis that has been validated by world class simulation centre in Lawrence Bell Nation Labs, and various labs are now beginning to publish papers replicating physically what the Koreans claim.

My own theory is that the superconductor is a particular isotope of lead. Specifically Pb 207, only 22% of Lead is Pb-207 sI believe some enrichment may be required to achieve a pure RTSC. I expect various entities to race to construct such plants if this theory is confirmed. Why do I think this?

Because Lead-207 has unique nuclear spin properties among stable lead isotopes.

Isotopic properties.

Lead-204: Spin = 0

Lead-206: Spin = 0

Lead-207: Spin = 1/2

Lead-208: Spin = 0

Copper-63: Spin = 3/2

Copper-65: Spin = 3/2

Only 22.1% of Lead is 207.

My own theory is that RTSC is a macro phenomena of engineered quantum entanglement, where the spins of individual Pb-207 nuclei become entangled with each other. This could potentially influence the electron behavior on a macroscopic scale. This might aid in forming Cooper pairs, enabling superconductivity.

Any Questions?

Good Morning Nostr 🧡⚡

Testing the Pixel Tablet running GrapheneOS today.

Been a long while since I've used Graphene, excited to see how far it's progressed.

have any of you ditched mobile phone for laptop only?

Everyone is sharing the worldcoin video, but I won't.

Look. Not everyone is going to make it. The point made by 1984 is the same point made by Ordinary Men: most people will love the regime. Most people will do anything to comply, to not stick out, to do what everyone else does—no matter how ridiculous.

The solution is deceivingly simple: don't try to change other people. Focus on yourself and how you spend your time.

Opt out. Don't feed the beast. Concentrate your time, energy, and attention on the alternatives represented by #bitcoin and #nostr. Become as resilient as you can. Become un-ruggable. Ignore the noise.

Good to step out every now and then.
