I'm no expert either but I never got the idea of a new universe popping up everytime. Do other universes also cause popups of new universes or just ours? That'd escalate quickly :-)

I thought it goes that there's already infinite universes existing from the big bang on. Otherwise universes would be created without big bang. (The new universe would just pop up and you'd still believe it was created by the big bang but there never was one)

Also I'm not sure if laws of thermodynamics had to span accross universes. Take two theoretical perfect vacuum/radiation sealed boxes you put an energy source into. There's no way to communicate between boxes. Each box had it's own entropy and state of energy. Both would obey the laws of physics while being separate "systems".

That thought experiment wouldn't work, if new boxes had to pop up if one of the boxes wanted to.

why would alternative universes share a single source of energy? couldn't each have their own?

now poison it

your own fault. get a nuclear reactor next time d'uh...

I'd like to see the bedbug that survives this. As mentioned elsewhere, this is used by (hopefully) every hospital, elderly home or hotel for worse stuff than bedbugs.

The mattresses leave this thing in a pristine state.

When you refund a mattress they just surface clean it

yuck. I doubt that. It's manual work and far more expensive than a machine.

but getting them dry would be a challenge

seriously? I mean, there is a chance no such service exists in your town. Bad luck then. But there is close to zero chance it doesn't exist in your country.

What do you think hospitals do? (Or good hotels, as mentioned). Source: Worked in an elderly home that used such a service regularly.

Here's an image of such a mattress washing machine.

They work.

That's not true. All mattresses except the cheapest foam ones are washable (they are, too but they might change properties then). But why get a used cheap one?

There are mattress washing services with giant washing machines that are used by hotels. Ask hotel staff to find one.

You can't get rid of most of the build-up.

You actually can get rid of all the buildups. Just like with clothes. Also don't think sellers throw it away when you refund a mattress - they wash it and sell it again.

just ask beforehand if you can test it quickly. while that's not 100% proof, most people are honest (at least when giving away stuff for cheap/free). There's a risk, but at worst you get free trash. Never happened to me, tho.

Also most high-quality stuff is always salvageable. Surely it's more hassle then if you have to order spare parts or such.

lock 'im up already...

Some things basically come for free when they were used. Washing machine, stoves... Disassembling them to fully clean them takes a day or two, but it's still faster than buying new and chances are good, someone wants to get rid of their high quality stuff near you and will give it away for cheap if you "dispose" it for them.

You can even wash a mattress for a few bucks. If it's good quality, a decade old used filthy mattress can come out like brand new.

People finding that gross or poorish are the reason, stuff is so cheap

non-native speakers hate those :-)

"Captain, the front shields fell off."

The prime directive uphold you must.

DE-mail was doomed to fail from the start. Here, they did some things right. Let's see how it turns out.

yep. IF sleep/idle/s2r/wakeup would work decently, it would already be a step in the right direction.

I want a PI zero that can run off small batteries for a long time. Form factor, prize, ecosystem is all perfect. But power consumption (even with WIFI etc. turned off)... is-too-damn-high.jpg

BS.

You can't walk 5 minutes in any major city into any direction and not meet some pro-palestine protestors.

Also Talkshows discuss palestine stuff for days now.

They did it before and they'll do it again.

imagine microsoft promoting guides to use the terminal which was deemed outdated, slow and complicated legacy in the past.

Give it two or three more major teleases, then windows will be a DE runnining on some *nix-ish kernel. Microsoft is really learning the hard way.

on Android, the OS is the firmware. If you talk about peripheral firmware, I'd not call it "software based" anymore.
