I generally like to stay hydrated, so I always have a few cups of water in my room. Why does water seem to go bad after 24 hours? That doesn't sound like it should make any kind of scientific sense, but it keeps fucking happening.

Get a high quality microscope and you'll find out why.
I don't have alot of money. Can you just tell me your prognosis?

Laughable, pick a real major at a better school that doesn't waste your money

just do nuclear engineering m8
>>7802910
I don't know of any program in my country that has a nuclear engineering program. I was thinking about going into it after graduation for a masters program.

Hey /sci/ I'm 21 years old and graduated from highschool in 2012. I made really good grades and was in advanced classes, I scored high on my PSAT's, but when my junior and senior year rolled around I began fucking up and skipping school and pretty much stopped caring about school altogether. Now that I stopped being a dumbass, I've been looking into getting my PhD in Clinical Psychology, however I'm scared because I have no money and my highschool transcript looks like shit. If I study my ass off and blow my SATs away, how fucked am I as far as getting into...

I personally chose to ignore it, if that's any help.

>less water in a bong gets you higher
Is this true? What's the science behind it?
Why would that be true? Look at the amount of water in gravity bongs.. Also water doesn't capture THC and tuck it away somewhere. It's water. If you're filling your bong with oil and semen, then I understand as that would actually severely filter the smoke.
Am I sheltered or are more people smoking pot now? I'm hearing about it on this board now geez.. Feels like dystopian fiction where everyone's on drugs

All the ten-year olds who joined in 2005 turned 20 last year, and went to college.

I have this plane kit to develop pic related with a team of friends. It'll take a couple years, and of course we will develop a normal engine for it.
But I'm really interested in nuclear power. I know how to get good amounts of Uranium and Deutrium , more or less legally and illegally.
How much power would a nuclear engine need to generate to power pic related? How big would that engine be?
>>7802105
>How much power would a nuclear engine need to generate to power pic related?
i never got why people asked shit like that. how much power does it take to operate? and what does uranium have to do with fusion?
either way its not really feasible
>>7802105
Just buy an old russian nuclear sub and retrofit it with wings.
>>7802112
Ok, well what about a small UAV drone?
Was consciousness a mistake /sci/?
Yes, our conscious minds don't make decisions anyway, so I can't for the life of me figure out why consciousness is even necessary. Seems like a blunder to me.
>>7802100
Imagine the disappointment of finally making it out into the universe at large; only to find out we are the only organisms to have developed a conciousness and that it's an evolutionary dead end.
>>7802100
I disagree. Consciousness is what makes us strive for abstract answers that offer no immediate value, and the search for these answers indirectly results in technological innovation. Clearly humans, being the only conscious (let's assume) animals, have made an incalculable leap in advantage over other species.
if i lived in california and there was a drought, should i cut my water usage? would it change anything? i'm thinking not because there's millions of people living in california. if i wasted 1000 liters, that would amount to like a drop when divided amongst all the people that lived in california. it makes no difference
>>7801965
Use as much as you actually need. No more and no less. The government pays people to ensure you have your water and you pay taxes so that the government can pay those people.
But if you waste water then I hope you get cervical cancer.
>>7801968
yeah, but my question is whether there's a way to model this in which it can be concluded whether the amount of water i waste has a significant impact, given that i don't waste millions of liters
>>7801976
You cut down your water usage by [math]x[/math]
There is now an extra [math]x[/math] amount in the reserves for everyone else to use. Thanks to your contribution, everyone else gets [math]x/y[/math] extra water, where y is the population who get their water from the same place you do.
That number will be really small, but if you assume that other people do the same then it becomes significant. If you actually care then just put up posters in the streets telling people to cut their usage as well.

Is this the fate of humanity? With the spread of mosquitos due to climate change, will the human species be split between cold-dwelling antarctic species and a tiny-brained hairless ape living in the hotter climes?

I thought it was already the case

>With the spread of mosquitos due to climate change
Mosquitos keep spreading because you stupid hysterics leftists banned the use of DDTs. Your retarded environmental policies create a vicious cycle of confirmation bias.

Well, of you go outside frequently, (in the forest, not a city) you should be fine. Nature doesn't really contain a lot of carcinogens that haven't been filtered out.
In your house, you can't do much. Maybe through your smoke detector away and only drink bottled water? Smoke detector has some americonium (barely any tho), and the water you drink probably has some shit in it. Other than that, not a whole lot you can do.
Do not eat processed food.
Do not eat food with coloring
Do not eat artificial preservatives
Do not drink alchohol, smoke cigs.
Live by the sea (clean wind blow pollute inland)
Live in house natural material.
No granite.
No power cables
No artificial sweetners or flavourings
Natural fibre clothes
No pets (allergens damage tissue)
No fap (that was joke)

is it worth it? can i become rich after graduating?
>>7801581
No, stop clogging up my majo- I mean, No. It's a meme field with no money in it whatsoever. Change your major to business, there's shitloads of money there.
If you have a good enough idea or are extremely talented and hard working you can become rich. Otherwise at best you'll be upper middle class, which is still better than a large majority of the country if you're a burger.
>>calculusishard.png
As a math major comments like this trigger me. Honestly I'm convinced that anyone who can think and follow an argument should at least be able to become good at math, it's just that most people aren't interested enough in it to devote the time required to learn the terminology,...

Is interdimensional travel possible or obtainable?
yes but not by beings like us
Yes but only for people in other dimensions
No, except for beings in our dimension.
