This diagram makes things look like “constant dollar value” and it is weird to see it being used for a simple numerical value when dollars are also being used.

The fact that the plant “remembered” the ride after 2 months is pretty impressive.

At that point, the sample might be outputting enough energy to actually sustain life instead of killing it off lol

If he died of anything other than bear attack, I'd say he did a good job XD

yeah I would be interested in seeing the after effects of this story since it has a lot of random stuff that kind of gets implied by the ending. Maybe only some people have the ability to sense such small things and will become super powerful wizards due to it.

Right but literally every cubic meter of air can contain millions of bacterial cells. You could just use that. You don’t even need anything around you. If sensing life force was a thing and it was sensitive enough to differentiate between different cells of a human, the air itself would act like a giant wall of cells that you’d need to filter through in order to see anything.

I wonder why they couldn’t just sacrifice individual cells if it works like that. How does the power scaling work here? Is it one second of bacteria equals one second of human life? Millions of bacteria seconds would absolutely blow everything else out of proportion. (Which to be fair does seem to happen a bit, but not as much as I would expect if it was a 1:1 ratio)

Plus, the human body contains millions of bacteria as required for our day to day survival. That’s basically a cheat code for immortality.

But how do they know of germ theory at this point?

Did the pain of cracking wake you up?
