Iβve never been interesting in pyrite, itβs even a joke among the people I do most of my research with that pyrite is a dumb mineral to like, but this fucking show had me going to the spoil tip of an old mine to try and fucking find it after ep2, didnβt find any though but I did get some malachite.
>>16732256 >you can analyze and collect rocks as a hobby
If I could get geodes as a kid you can get rocks as an adult, and if you can save up few hundred dollars you could even get a halfway decent microscope.

Ruri no houseki.
Currently airing anime about a high school girl who sees a pretty piece of quartz in a shop but doesn't have enough money to buy so her mum unwisely tells her that her grandpa used to collect pieces of quarts in the local hills.
Unwisely she decides to go exploring to find her own, luckily she meets a student from the local geology course who takes her under her wing.
Also all of the girls have the bodies of fertility goddesses

What the hell are you talking about?
I gave a basic outline even if in hindsight anon could have probably found a better summary by searching for it.
Why would I be a jeet or need to use AI?
>>16734245 >is that how flourescent paint works too
Yes, its the same mechanism. >manipulate wavelengths
There are a variety of phosphors so you can get different colors depending on what substance you're using. But in general you can do this with other substances as well and have objects that re emitt incident light at a different wavelength, its a principle that some lasers operate on when they pass their light through certain crystals.

I vaguelly remember a process where wood was blached clear through various chemicals and they found it actively cooled the local environment through I think absorbing infrared and reemitting it as something else
>>16735047
does ruri wear a tanktop and lift her arms up to stretch like when she was looking for gold in the river?
asking for a friend and he says this is very important
>>16735147
Honestly more than just going on a hike and looking for neat rocks I want to get back into doing some chemistry, I want to see if I can grow some sizeable artificial crystals.
>>16735144 >treat fluorite so it fluoresces in different wavelengths
No, because its caused by the impurities in the crystal. If you wanted different wavelengths of light, the impurities would have to be different. I guess if you implant quantum dots into a crystal it might work and you might have different wavelengths of light based on the angle, but that's beyond my chem knowledge.
>>16727856 (OP)
i had a richfag friend who gave me all kinds of rocks and minerals and books and the like. i didn't end up going into geology (though close w/ high pressure chemistry) but i look forward to the series regardless.
Be aware that ruri no houseki threads on /a/ seem to have taken a very mentally unstable direction.
The airing threads are relatively ok but subsequent threads are getting spammed up by crazy people.
>>16732209 >What you haven't used geo to get a mining industry job?
oil jobs pay much better
And in school the boomer professors said all the mining jobs were over.

did the cute retarded girl obsessed about shiny things settle for 1mm blue sand? i thought they were gonna keep looking.
w/e giving up and having a bikini fan service beach episode works too
Japanese niggas will make a show about 'cute girls' doing taxes and a trillion downwardly mobile norwooding plumbers will treat that shit like the bible
>>16740063 >downwardly mobile
speak for yourself >norwooding
see above >plumbers
got back to xitter and give elon all of your shekels so he can sell your data to israeli security companies
>>16740101
Guys with fixations about those mercenary jap women doing cute little little gimmicks 2d and 3d are lowkey nuked in they head, right or wrong?
>>16740163
Its fairly common, so it doesn't surprise me you can find them on beaches, though I assume there are certain conditions that make them more abundant in some places than others.
>>16740063
they can make an anime about anything, there's one about a vending machine this season
i wish they made more anime with a bit science like this rock one
not the shit science ones like dr.stone 500iq can build everything
>>16727856 (OP)
There uh aren't actually giant geodes exposed to the open air like that... are there? No there can't be they'd get filled with dirt and gravel. This is ridiculous.
I remember a stupid film, like really really stupid about having to restart the earths core and riding I think a giant geode to the centre or something like it.
Ring a bell for anyone? For some reason I feel like it was connected to the film "Evolution" somehow.
>>16740175 >PulpΓ Geode >located 160 feet down a mine
Uh huh. So that's exposed to the open air, is it? No. No, it is not. Let's see an actual real-life image of what's depicted in the anime.
>>16740190
What I mean is that there's a power law distribution that means that small geodes are far more common than big ones, but there's nothing in principle that prevents a large geode from forming and eventually getting exposed to the open air like any other cave.
>>16740201
Uh huh. How about this for a power law: you admit the anime is selling "educational content" full of lies that will inevitably bait children into a dead-end field... and I don't share this thread on alt-chans full of schizophrenic Christian gen-x-ers & elderly boomers who will drown your precious Ruri Rocks thread with rants about Young Earth Creationism and shit full your beloved /sci/-board with threads for Scientific Inquiries About Their Psoriasis, Preventing Age-Related Macular Degeneration, and Fun Facts About Canine Venereal Disease.
>>16740268 >this thread on alt-chans
they're aren't any that aren't dead, incredibly niche, 8gag, or the sharty >schizophrenic Christian gen-x-ers & elderly boomers >with rants about Young Earth Creationism and shit >Psoriasis, Preventing Age-Related Macular Degeneration, and Fun Facts About Canine Venereal Disease
have you seen the catalog for this board at any point in the past few years
>>16740268 >anime is selling "educational content" full of lies that will inevitably bait children into a dead-end field
If someone decides to choose their career path based on a depiction in a flavor of the month chinese cartoon, they fully deserve to be a geofag.
>>16739506 >And in school the boomer professors said all the mining jobs were over.
God damn academic professors are pants on head retarded or just trying to artificially steer humanity based on their leftist liberal beliefs

Japan: >Basic education about scientific topic >Features sexy women as a bonus
Not Japan: >Only lectures about politically charged topic >ugly "women" as a bonus
I'm in too minds whether to share this series with my family.
On the one hand it's a great series with excellent animation, on the other hand Nagi and Imari are walking pairs of tits so I don't know how to avoid the lable of perversion
>>16762375 >How big would those crystals be
Crystals can grow to any size given sufficient time and space, but for that pic its hard to tell without a reference for scale
>>16768955
No. Though it may depend on the school. Biology and Chem have the highest proportion of girls at around 45-65%.
Geology is somewhere around 30%, though that is a bit more than physics and a lot more than CS/Eng.
>>16768971
Vetmeds have by far the most in my cunt (at least outside the social"sciences" and arts) Something like 90-95%. Good looking ones too. Crazy for the handful of guys in there. Just need to stay clear of the high maintenance horse girls.
>>16770356
I honestly can't give advice on exact models, all I know is that the microscopes at my dad's job they had set up for me and all the other kids in the summer didn't break the bank.
>>16745238 >but with rockets
you need to watch "Rocket Girls", the show with a legit scientific reason to have your CG doing the CT... in skin-tight space suits! (mass autism)
