I _love_ tungsten.
Tungsten is _very_ heavy, and very hard. It's difficult to cut and turn with machine tools. It's even difficult to cast and melt (melting point 3422 °C)
That's the primary reason in its cost. It isn't a rare substance, but it is very difficult to work.
hmm
I think I have a tungsten AR charging handle
didn't realize it was that durable
Well tungsten is fairly brittle because of its extreme hardness.
When used as jewelry polishing it is virtually unnecessary because ordinary materials cannot scratch it.
It is used as a substitute for U238 depleted uranium in armor piercing projectiles.
nice
The primary utility og tungsten carbide is tool tips,
Yes.
Some day I will own an awesome tungsten pencil. Even if I have to make it myself 🤓
A charging handle made of tungsten is a strange choice.
I've heard of tungsten filled buffers before.
I want tacos
Nothing like talk of heavy metals to make someone crave tacos
I just ate a ton of chinese food. I'll have to wait an hour before I can even think about tacos.
@C1PHER I think its because of the cheap mexican labor that is working on my roof right now
(I live in an apartment complex, I didnt hire them)
i'd never heard it until now
Greta's speech is so cringe
how dare you
Bless
how dare you sir
how absolutely dare you
It's horifying. I can't do it.
I try to hear people out, but I have limits
eat more chinese food?
lel
I've only heard the bit that's been memed to oblivion
but goddamn even that is too much
I don't even know if she said more than the meme bit.
Because how could that not also be memed to hell and back, considering what a performance the part we know is?
she said a lot more
but it mainly consisted of "how dare you"
I didnt even finish her speech
Too cringy
yeah
and the classic hit "people are dying"
"people are dying; women most affected"
I'm curious how you'd even calculate who dies from global warming and how many have even been claimed as such and if they're valid
