A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Lol so you threw it in the trash? 😹
It's a made-up story. Depleted uranium is a byproduct of uranium enrichment and places that do uranium enrichment aren't even going to talk to you unless you have a host of government licenses. Depleted uranium only has a few applications like:
This makes it very hard for collectors to obtain (it can take people years) and actual samples of DU are going to be more expense than regular uranium. The story makes as much sense as your grandmother buying cubic zirconia jewelry and being "scammed" with actual diamonds.
Well, the DU could have been scavenged from spent munitions a warzone after it had obliterated something.
Nah, he threw it on the ground. DUH!
That's not my dad!
That's a cell phone!
Thank goodness.. I feel in good company on this site age-wise, then I'll drop what I think is an obvious one and crickets
woosh
Yeah I feel like this is some kind of reference I'm missing
Can a man truly be wooshed when he doesn't possess the required knowledge in the first place? I say not. This is an unjust woosh.
NAY I SAY! This man cannot be wooshed for such a folley! Truly unjust, as you say.
