  • Without gravity it’s a sphere, or in free fall without air drag it’s a sphere (if it has sufficient surface tension anyway, which is what makes lava or molasses flow that way, in combination with its viscosity).

    But in a vacuum it will boil off until the vapor pressure is high enough to eliminate the vacuum. But then it’s not in a vacuum anymore.

    Really a fluid or liquid will always try to minimize its surface area while fighting gravity.

    It’s a definitions problem that a lot of people who think there aren’t “objective truths” in science.

    A circular saw and a hammer would do it. Just 2 cuts and a thwack per board.

    If the cuts are too deep a sawzall and longish blade would work too but take longer.

    If I somehow ended up owning this house I’d probably just screw some 1/8” steel straps across the bottoms of the joists and call it a day. The the bottoms of floor joists are in tension anyway.



  • Yeah ME wasn’t worth looking at, we downgraded my GF’s computer after it wouldn’t run well. 95 was a big jump over 3.1, but still more like a beta for 98.

    But I switched to 2000 not long after it came out. I did set up my first home built PC with 98, in 98, just got a sudden flashback to the defragging screen. Shudders.
