Adding quantum to anything is just cheating though. I swear some quantum subfields exists just to one up people academically lol.

Oh I know it's real. I'm a biologist haha. But I stick to my beef with "quantum" despite being a nerd for it.

I like that the lawyer avoids saying “Duck Tape” because it’s trademarked.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago

Duct tape is unbranded Duck Tape. Which is why it don’t actually work on ducts.
