There is something so deeply satisfying about buying an SSD, cloning the magnetic drive on a 5 year old laptop, rendering the clone bootable, booting up the OS on the SSD, and having it be 5-8 times faster just to get to the Windows login screen.

From mcnees@mastodon.social on Mastodon: If you aren't too busy, take a minute to look through NASA's Project Apollo archive on Flickr. https://www. flickr.com/photos/projectapoll oarchive/albums This is a totally safe use of your time, you definitely won't look up two hours from now and ask where your morning went.

Very excited for the imminent arrival at # SNOLAB of the first undergraduate research summer student with whom I will work directly! Thrilled to get her started at the lab, meet lots of people, and begin thinking about predicting hardware failure before it happens.

From SuperCDMS https://twitter.com/SuperCDMS on Twitter: Faith Fang, recent @SMUPhysics graduate, completed the @theNAEng Grand Challenges Scholars Program with her work on SuperCDMS. Faith studied the effect of air flow on radon plateout rates on materials used in the SuperCDMS @SNOLABscience experiment. https://t.co/buZ4VGYKA1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/d157dd7413c12a47574d044cd8f4efa1398fc79e53d9ad20f74f5612e87b1e4e/view

Among the many cool things about moving these towers to SNOLAB to put them underground for installation in SuperCDMS: the collaboration carefully planned the journey to minimize exposure to high levels of cosmic ray radiation. These are sensitive, cutting-edge instruments. https://t.co/E8jzjIlAwH
