I used to just say, “If you can run fast enough. I don’t know if I’d chance it though… Tony’s working today.”

science@lemmy.world•Scientists Make a Major Breakthrough in Solving a Hair-Raising Mystery About Static ElectricityEnglish
13·14 days agoGrosjean and his colleagues inspected the materials under a microscope and saw that samples that hadn’t been cleaned were covered in a thin layer of carbon-rich molecules. After a few hours, even the treated materials gained a molecular coating.
“This carbon cake, it just grows on everything, in every environment,” says study co-author Scott Waitukaitis, a physicist at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria, to Emily Conover at Science News.
The work could help explain puzzling phenomena like volcanic lightning and dust storm zaps, as well as the birth of planets. Contact electrification might play a role in how swirling gas and dust around stars stick together to form young planets, Gerhard Wurm, an astrophysicist at the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany who was not involved in the research, tells Science. The study shows that carbon-based molecules are “important in this story,” he adds.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What should I do if my violent brother is threatening to kill my parents (who I financially depend on and live with) and they aren't taking it seriously?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What should I do if my violent brother is threatening to kill my parents (who I financially depend on and live with) and they aren't taking it seriously?
2·3 months agoVery short term solution. What happens when he gets released and comes back home? There’s no solid proof other than he-said vs they-said and it will just amp up the aggression towards him. It’s a tough spot to be in but the cops/law can only help so much before something really bad happens.
I’d definitely find a way to get a deadbolt inside your room door and install it secretly at night.

11·3 months agoAnd record video or sound when he threatens like that, so it won’t be their word against yours. Always good to have proof just in case.
