2017-03-03 at 2 AM UTC in DIY Acid WashI've acid-washed one of my knives in the past but it didn't turn out as well as I'd liked - I assume the acid I mixed wasn't quite potent enough, so the blade came out a bit dull. I was somewhat disappointed and hadn't tried again since.
That was up until I saw the detailed patterns you can get with PCB transfer film - examples:
so I decided to give it a try again.
First thing to do is get some transfer film - it's fairly expensive, so if you want to nigger-rig it some people have been able to use glossy photo paper. I suspect that if you go this route, you'll need to use different temperature settings when transferring the pattern to the metal.
The idea behind transfer paper is you print a design on it, then you press it face down on your metal surface (blade in this case), and use heat and pressure to transfer the ink from the paper to the metal. Then, when it's exposed to acid, the ink resists it - metal not covered by ink is corroded, metal covered by ink is left untarnished.
I didn't take photos of the transfer paper because I printed it ages ago, but the brand is Press n Peel Blue and it'll look like this once printed:
The difficult part is getting the patterns to transfer evenly - you need both heat (I found about 150 degrees celsius to be ideal) and constant, even pressure. I've tried this in the past with an iron, a vice and blowtorch, even a convection oven but never had much luck. This time around, I built the DANGERWAND.
It's basically just a hair-straightener mounted on a vice so I can use it as a heat press. Works well, but is actually pretty dangerous - I had to tape over the circuit on the top, touching it gives a very nasty shock.
I would've actually used this as the pattern, but being a total fucking mongolroy I applied the pattern upside down. Clean off the pattern with acetone, re-press, this is the result:
NOTE: I intentionally faded the pattern to the right to avoid a hard cutoff. I also used nail polish to paint parts of the blade that I didn't want to be exposed to the acid, ie. the ring around where the pivot goes, because if you corrode the parts that make contact with other components, you will fuck up the tolerances and best case, the knife will be loose and off-centre, worst case it won't open or lock up properly.
Next up is the acid dip. I used 6% sodium hydroxide and hardware-store grade hydrochloric acid in a ratio of 2.5:1 in an OAK milk bottle with the top cut off. If youre going to do this, you MUST use either a GLASS or HDPE plastic container. The acid is strong enough that it'll rapidly corrode and weaken a metal container, and most other plastics will melt in a matter of minutes. No photos, I was afraid that I'd acid-damage my phone.
Basically I mixed the acid, put a cabletie through the hole in the blade and hung it off a metal bar on the lip of the container - that way the blade was suspended in acid. It only took like 5 minutes for it to seriously corrode, then I took it out and washed it and rubbed a bit of making soda across it to ensure the acid was totally neutralised. After washing, I used a small amount of acetone to remove the nail polish and the resist pattern that I'd applied to the metal - this is the end result:
After putting it all back together:
I don't intend on doing this again anytime soon, the acid is VERY messy and releases a lot of unpleasant fumes, plus it's annoying to dispose of. Generally you've got to slowly add a base (bicarbonate/baking soda) until it's neutralised, then it's safe to flush.
PS. the knife in question is a Spyderco Manix.

Originally posted by Captain Falcon Yes but it's a matter of coincidence rather than cause. One could model one as a function of the other, but the context in which you said that implied that one determined the outcome of the other, but I don't think it's useful or even accurate to say that the heads side is up *because* the tails side is down; one simply accompanies the other.
To the best of our knowledge, they are both independent "rolls", which are 100% guaranteed to be the opposite of each other.
I think when the alternative explanation is literally impossible without tossing out the established workings of mathematics and principles of logic, I think it's as close to being a physical reality as possible.
Although the indeterministic/coincidence model you've advanced might not be logically impossible it's a weak gain on it, it's so vanishingly unlikely without some kind of coordination as to be trivially dismissable. The probability of this coincidence holding are so close to 0 and get worse with each experiment conducted. In fact it's probably more likely that each measurement taken was a statistical anomaly as to violate Bell's inequality as it is that entangled particles are just coincidentally observed as being in opposite states which this degree of consistency. The article you linked actually mentions this:There is another objection to the experimental tests that, at least so far, nobody has managed to get totally around. We measure a spin combination of, say, zero degrees and 45 degrees for a collection of electrons and then measure another spin combination, say 45 degrees and 90 degrees, for another collection of electrons.
1. The idea of a non local variable being responsible for the seemingly random outcome of quantum events is such an overwhelmingly huge special case that would require tearing down many, many walls of already established, mathematically and experimentally supported science upon which we have built existing science. For example, the entire relativistic model of physics.
True, but there's really no way to accept experimental results in QM without overturning some element of orthodoxy in physics, indeterminism certainly does and at least as presented it doesn't seem to offer any satisfying explanation.2. The non-local hidden variable, if it indeed exists, also cannot be the explanation for why a particle's wave function collapses in a specific way. Even a non-local variable would fall into the same trap.
Why not? As I understand it Bell's theorem operates on the assumption that we can measure spin at two different angles independently (without one measurement affecting the other), if there is a non-local variable we can explain the violation as being a result of measurement: measuring spin at one angle changes measurements of an entangled particle's spin at a different angle.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon Not really. There is no information travelling between the particles, no communication or contact. The states are simply correlatively linked, specifically in the fact that no matter what the probability is of them being in any particular states, there is a 100% chance that they will be in opposite states to one another. There is no hidden variable that tells us the specific state of the outcome but the act of entangling the two particles for example is… somehow what creates the fact that they always collapse into opposite states.
Their collapse doesn't seem to be probabilistic then. If a particle's state is determined by another particle's state then it won't probabilistically collapse, its collapse is a fact contingent on something else. It's like saying "there's a 50% chance that this coin will land on heads, except I'm going to actually set it down on tails so it just probabilistically landed on tails". I don't see how you can call something random when something else necessitates it.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2017-02-08 at 6:19 PM UTC in The mind is a meat radio.What do you mean by action at a distance here? My first thought is measurement at one point acts in some way on measurement at another but you seem to have specifically rejected that earlier.
It does indeed seem like a very strange finding, but it seems just, or nearly, as impossible, to the point of being almost trivially dismissable, that independent probabilistic collapse at the point of measurement should display this pattern sum zero spin as a hidden local variable carried at emission being responsible for violating Bell's inequality. It just doesn't seem like a purely probabilistic model offers any better explanation of the results than a local hidden variable explanation, both seem simply wrong.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2017-01-19 at 11:25 PM UTC in For Trump's inaugeration i am celebrating with loads of drugs.I guess I don't see how perception of reality can be measured, and I have a hard time seeing the 'spiritual power' in a guy who thinks walking a dog is hard work and can't ignore criticism on Twitter.
Influence =/= spiritual awareness. Being wealthy =/= spiritual enlightenment. I would say it's closer to the opposite, in many cases.
Trump is a businessman. That's what he knows. He's not known for his profound comments and unique insight into the metaphysical realm. He's known for his wealth, and his ego. I won't say that I don't get what you're driving at, but it's certainly not explicitly accurate by any means. It's one of these deals where if need be, an argument can be made for what you're saying, but it's based strictly on opinion and the adverse argument can just as well be viewed as the most sensible.

Not really.
With a schizophrenic, you wouldn't indulge their fantasies and delusions and tell them they're right, you'd encourage them to get help for their mental health problems.
So why is it that people indulge the delusions of "transgenders", to the point where they pump them full of hormones and even give body mutilating surgery?
It's not right. People who are transgender need psychiatric help, not reinforce their delusions -

And in your opinion, what's more important, how you define yourself as a dog or how society defines you as a crazy man?
As far as the first question I think you would be a dog with a human psycology. You are not a dog in mind but are not a human in body. It would be a strange inbetween as far as determining what you "are".
I would say its probably more important in this scenario how society defines one as a crazy man. I mean it would be nearly pointless to define yourself as a dog because your role is already defined by your owners so in any case you would be defined by an external factor, either your status as a pet or your status as crazy.
Originally posted by Open Your Mind I really enjoyed this post, thanks for posting it again. But I am not sure where you stand on this topic. Do you think the above scenario is tragic or comedic or does it even matter?
I think it is tragic but comedy is useful because it tends to reveal darker truths about how people feel regarding tragic circumstances so I use it to that extent.
Originally posted by Open Your Mind Does anyone really know who they are right now?
That is something I ask myself. People seem so very lost. All of them and even myself. It worries me.
Originally posted by Open Your Mind Is there a way we are "supposed" to be, or should people just be whatever the fuck they want to be?
I think there is a way we are supposed to be. I defintily think that being "whatever the fuck we want to be" is somewhat unnatural. An unintelligent person may love mathematics but it would be a bad route for them to become a mathematician just because of their natural ability or lack thereof. I guess what I am getting at is there is a natural order. I am not sure exactly what it is or should be though.
Originally posted by Open Your Mind We can imagine that in the future technology will become capable of making extreme transformations like this a reality. Do you think that's a "bad" thing or does it even matter at all? What's your reasoning?
If this extreme transformation were possible at a technical level that doesnt mean it will be good or healthy at the psycological level. I think certian transformations could take place without much harm but I believe other transformations could have extreme detrimental effects on the person undergoing the transformation. If it is bad or not really depends on more than I can assume so I really cant say. I just know that we shouldn't assume it is good right off the bat.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2017-01-17 at 11:42 PM UTC in TransniggersR-R-R-REPOST!
I can run around on all fours, bark and eat dog food I am still a human.
To put it another way let us say an individual was born in India. They grew up in India and were surrounded by indian culture. We would say this persons nationality is Indian. But in this individuals mind their National Identity is that they are not of Indian descent at all. They, though being born in india, raised in india and surrounded by indian culture, have come to the conclusion they they are an Italian! In our day that is a rather insane thought. To think that you are something by "identity" and expecting others to accommodate you in an identity built of your own perception that wholly disregards the reality and circumstances that are directing your life.
But no, this Trans-Italians plight is seen and answered. Clinics open up with procedures to dye the skin the color of the individuals "National Identity" and though extremely risky this procedure is encouraged even though "Trans national" rates of suicide are actually higher after the procedure.
And we cannot forget that these rates of suicide in trans nationals could never be due to mental illness or defective psycology and must always be reinforces that the rate is higher because of their status as an oppressed people. Even though the suicide rates among all other minority groups who face similar levels of oppression are drastically lower.
And it would be a travesty and outrage when, during the olympic games, these trans nationals are unallowed to compete for the nation of their national identity rather the nation of their nationality. So we would accommodate and say "what is nationality anyway? is it not an archaic social construct? Isnt there a history of oppression surrounding this?" We must move forward and allow the Trans Nigerians to compete for Nigeria and so forth. To not do so would be a violation of our most basic human rights.
In time it comes to be that nationality as a simple and reasonable system of identification is plain wrong. It comes to be that even being a "nationalist" is something to be ashamed of because it is at its core "transphobic". Nationality is replaced by the idea of National Identity. Some people identify as a Russian though they reside in iceland. A resident of somalia becomes canadian overnight. Others believe that National Identity itself can be too restrictive and therefore become nationals of Middle Earth or Tatooine. There are even individuals who identify as Zeta Reticulations. And of course the nationally fluid must be accomodated, and people from day to day swap their national identity to whatever best suits the time.
There is actually a section of every police force specifically designed to aid transnationals who have faced adversity because of their situation as a transnational. To misnationalize is only seen as a crime of hate, discrimination and ignorance to which fines or jail time will be mandatory.
And in the end, when the change is made and we have patted ourselves on our backs for reconstructing nationality as national identity and accepting national fluidity a realization will dawn. A feeling will slowly sink in. When all is said and done no one really knows "who" they are anymore.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by Sophie But murder and mass murder is still morally wrong.
murder is a legal term. legality =/= morality. whether it's right or wrong to kill someone is a matter of circumstance.
Originally posted by Sophie Nah, that's moral relativism talking.
morals are not relative. morals are a product of the necessity inherent in living beings, moreover living beings who must act intentionally on the basis of knowledge.
Originally posted by Sophie In fact, violence is always wrong, unless it is applied in self defense.
no, violence is only wrong some times and not other times, and not all of those times that it is right are self defense.
Originally posted by Sophie But if we are to discuss what is wrong, right, virtues, good or evil. We must do so within the methodology provided by moral philosophy.
this is basically gibberish. 'the methodology provided by moral philosophy' there is no moral philosophy 'as such'. and there is no 'methodology provided' by philosophy, which is itself an abstracted method of approaching questions that involve introspection by necessity.
we'd be better off working through a dictionary and thesaurus in order to find out 'what is right, wrong, virtue, good, evil', because these are terms that are defined by natural requirements of our organism, and, in fact do not require and philosophy or introspection to understand.
if i were to explain it to you, with the necessary translation and transformation to adjust for your error, it would be, "both good and evil are necessary to act rightly, and virtue is skill in acting rightly". you have confused 'gregarious' with 'good', and used it as a monopole to also define evil. this must present some uncomfortable conflicts of interest, since all that we must do is not gregarious, you must, by your measure, judge that some things we must do are both necessary for health and success, and also wrong.

Originally posted by Sophie So basically you say that being a bad person is virtuous. And here i thought you believed the left was all about inversing values.
being a 'good person' isn't about being 'nice'. that's cultural marxism talking. being a good person is about being strong, and having capacity. being a good person for you and yours = being a very, very bad person for those against you and yours. the old testament god is a reflection of the survival values of the time. different contexts yield different optimization formulas for survival and success, for example, a megalomania value of 4.25 might have been ideal for 1000BC, where a value of 2.1 might be ideal for a world in which there are many many more people such as we have now.
when two people fight, all else being equal, the good person always wins, and the bad person always loses.
'value' is that which promotes survival and victory. if you're under the impression that bombing all of africa with nerve gas would make you a 'bad person', you're very wrong. in fact, sending aid to africa is what makes you a bad person.

Originally posted by Sophie He seems more like a sadist than an illogical person to me. Especially the God of the Old Testament.
The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.
that's how you have to be. monotheistic gods are just the archetype of the apex predator.
there's nothing wrong with being petty, because the devil is in the details.
being 'unjust' is not what you call someone who has to make decisions that hurt some people and help others. leaders have to make hard decisions. justice has nothing to fucking do with it.
jealous is right. that which is mine, is mine alone, and that which i desire shall be mine yet. this is the rule of material life, where we are not ghosts that subsist on fog and vapor.
unforgiving is righteousness. because forgiveness is wrong. it does not change what has happened. it's a foible to forgive.
being a control freak is right. the point of consciousness itself is to take control over the environment.
being vindictive is right. because if you suffer yourself to be harmed and do not retaliate, the jackals will smell your impending death and gather around.
being bloodthirsty is right. someone that isn't willing to kill without a second thought isn't willing to live without a second thought. this earth is an abattoir. we are all ruled over by death, and to indulge in wanton bloodshed is to make the earth smile in pride at her children, who starve on her lap.
ethnic cleansing is just and proper, for just as you love yourself more than your mother, and your mother more than your brother, and your family more than your clan, and your clan more than your race, and your race more than a foreign race, but a human more than an animal, if you aren't willing to combat those whose blood is foreign to yours, you prove that you are a creature without love at all. and in the end, cleanliness is next to godliness.
misogyny is required for a stable social structure. women are lesser beings than men; their souls are smaller, their brains are undeveloped, they are breeding stock, and if they are not treated as such, your family, your country, your race, will die.
homophobia is right. for a man to submit sexually to another man is an abhorrent perversion of all that is natural to man, and you must cast out this disease from your tribe.
racism is truth. diversity is not strength. uniformity is strength. all races are different. and it is in knowing the differences between things that we obtain to wisdom.
infanticide is necessary, for crushing an enemy, you must kill his next generation. suffer none to live.
genocide is the art by which earth will eventually become beautiful. all advanced civilizations that visit our planet from other stars at one time went through genocide after genocide until they had selected the perfect race.
filicide is necessary at times. if a baby does not even know it's name, it is not a person, for a person has a name, and no one will weep for its death.
pestilence? you mean biological warfare? whats your beef with sustainable, organic weaponry?
megalomania? you mean having a strong ego and being someone? make no mistake, in these days of cowardice and smallness of spirit, any strong signs of life and consciousness will be called sickness.
whats wrong with sadomasochism? what are you, a puritan?
if you do not have the capacity for capricious malevolence as a person, you are like a porcupine without its spines: a tasty, succulent treat for anyone that cares to make the effort to eat you.
