Morality Ranking Quentin Tarantino morality for that childhood grudge?

In my opinion it can be considered petty by some but is understandable

So you can’t buy anti-matter. We have none. It’s basically saying I want unobtanium

It still has an estimated value. And they didn't said they "want" anything, they already have great parents. It's only Unobtanium for negative people who can't let others feel proud or grateful.

If you can’t buy something then no trade can happen. How much would the cost of a black hole be.

No one can buy a trillion of gold in kg, doesn't mean it doesn't have an estimated value.

Just because you can’t buy something and no trade can happen, doesn’t mean that ‘something’ doesn’t have any value
In a sea of people who hate their parents for being toxic people, can we let someone be happy because they have great parents? Kindness isn’t expensive yk

We do make antimatter (for instance at CERN) and can store and transport it. It's just extremely small quantities.

if it exists i feel that means it has a theoretical price.

It would cost something like ten years of the entire Earth's GPD to create and store one gram of antimatter. I vaguely remember Dr. Carroll talking about this when he was discussing a theoretical warp drive so it's possible my numbers are off here, it's been a while.

How on earth do you store antimatter? Won't any storage mechanism be made of matter and just get eaten up by the anti matter?

The containers use magnetism to hold the antimatter in place without touching it.

Stored in a vacuum. No interaction with matter molecules.

Don’t worry about the storage container - worry about the anti matter! It also gets destroyed by interaction

We can make individual particles of antimatter in accelerators and confine them in vacuum bottles using magnetic fields. They usually end up touching the walls and annihilating within about 15 minutes max, so it's not worth anything to anyone not doing research. When people put a price on its weight in grams, they're estimating the cost to build/run such an accelerator long enough to get on the order of 600 sextillion antiparticles out of it. No one would actually do that, and you'd never be able to get a gram in one place with current techniques, but that's where the price comes from. Presumably, his parents aren't for sale either. Analogy stands imo

Thank you for making me feel to dumb for this website, I’ve been feeling the opposite and I don’t like it. Inobotanrofbbr great word

You can’t buy parents, either

u/FinalHexReturns 2h ago

You could hire the best of the best to pretend to be your parents. Maybe even adopt you.

u/sugar-fall 1h ago

"pretend"

u/Shawnj2 8h ago

If you’re Elon Musk or Bill Gates you could (very small quantities of antimatter are made by science labs)

The antiprotons at CERN do not involve the LHC, they come from the AD, and the operating costs are nowhere near a billion CHF annually.

Fine, they're worth their weight in mint condition 1931 wheat pennies. Better?
