@ishtar.bsky.social After striking out and searching for years I have finally gotten my hands on some metallic thorium very tiny but it’s there! I don’t know the mass but it is indeed radioactive albeit VERY slightly ☢️

@ishtar.bsky.social BTW the fact that it emitted enough gamma rays to set off the alarm like that tells me that the mineral had to a pretty big specimen, not even my 6.5 gram depleted uranium sample would’ve done that; I would have loved to see that on video lol 😂

@ishtar.bsky.social During your trip to the Ruggles Mine years ago you could’ve gotten away with bringing your Polimaster with you by keeping it hidden in your pocket so they wouldn’t notice lol 😂 m.youtube.com/watch?v=q__8...

@ishtar.bsky.social I had to purchase this! I wanted a uranium sample that isn’t significantly oxidized unlike my other samples! Such a marvelous looking metal!

@ishtar.bsky.social Nice feature with this update 👍 Green is the background btw

@ishtar.bsky.social I see the IOS version of RadiaCode has finally added the background feature. I’m still waiting for the calibration feature though lol 😂

People traded the lives of women, minorities, LGBT+, marginalized groups, Palestine, Ukraine, and potentially the future of our nation for empty promise of cheaper gas and taxes... We are failed species 🫂

@ishtar.bsky.social Oh no, I’m going to miss that account, so many great videos from there over the years 😥

@ishtar.bsky.social I thought Kamala had this election in the bag as I was thinking that people (the same ones who kept Trump from winning re-election in 2020) would’ve had some sense to not put Trump back in office due to his atrocious last presidential run 🗳️

@ishtar.bsky.social Bummer, I thought Kamala had this election in the bag due to Trump’s disastrous last presidential term and his legal issues among others. I really wanted a female be elected president for the first time.

@ishtar.bsky.social I didn’t know that 40Ca being a double magic number is the reason why there are no gamma emissions involved when 40K undergoes the prominent beta decay route. m.youtube.com/watch?v=fnzu...

@ishtar.bsky.social this guy talks about things I don’t hear from any other nuclear physics channel. He often comes up with terms that I’ve never even heard of before lol 😂 m.youtube.com/watch?v=QgGj...
