Just got these results from an amazing YouTuber. So amazing to see third party analysis proving I extract rhodium/iridium!!!!

@REALspark_gap Wow I did not know that. So what happened? Did the paper combust on its own from the oil?

So hears a funny/frightening story you can relate to. This morning I came down stairs & noticed a strange smell that reminded me of fresh vintage paint, but I couldn’t seem to locate where it was coming from. A little while later my son said to come down because something was smoking from the trash can in the back. When I got there I saw that paper towels in the can were smoking hot, so I rushed the whole bag outside pulled the hot paper towels out and stomped them until the smoldering stopped, then soaked them in water & put them in the burn barrel out back. I had a jar of boiled linseed oil that I soaked my graphite electrodes in, but I had let the electrodes dry out on a hot plate, so I wondered how all these paper towels got saturated in it. It turns out that while my son and I were out last night, my wife accidentally knocked my jar over on the counter behind the kitchen sink. I know I should’ve put the lid back on!🤦🏻‍♂️ Not knowing what it was, she just used a bunch of paper towels to clean it up and tossed them in the trash. Thankfully we live in Florida with high humidity or it could’ve ended up being far worse.

This $500 million award by the DOE is the definition of insanity. We have already released a billion dollar worth of funding in 2025 and released hundredths of millions more under Biden. Throwing money will not solve our critical mineral industry. Its time to stop. This video explains why but there is far more I haven't spoken up yet about... I cant stress how deep this problem occurs and you'll be shocked how corrupt the money is awarded out as. If you know someone in government, please reach out asap youtube.com/watch?v=qp0h1O…

@MinuteofZombie @EtherDais The quad chart needs to be submitted first before the actual project proposal

First of all, that’s a garbage quad chart. It’s an eye chart. No one asks for quad charts to read the entire proposal. That’s just not what a quad chart is for. Secondly, DARPA proposals contain a quad chart AND a proposal document abstract. The denial justification says rhe proposal isn’t clear enough. It’s likely referring to his entire proposal, not just the quad chart specifically.

If you don't know what this lad has been up to, this won't make sense, but also I'm not sure he needs DARPA as much as ORI or something. Also, Darpa wont jump unless you can frame things appropriately. If they had pitched arpanet outside of a war framework they never would have made it @DefenderOfBasic

To clarify I needed to follow that template. I'll make a video explaining more details but trust me I filled it perfectly. Simply hot denied by a reviewer who didn't have the technical background to understand the potential. Aka beucracy

Just got denied by DARPA for the following quad chart. How am I even supposed to add more information and details??? It's maxed out already. Utterly ridiculous. The pathway is clear also with the most basic of chemistry knowledge. I would be glad to explain each element process but I physically with the limited space im allowed... This was the reason for the denial: A critical flaw exists in that the proposed approach does not describe nor demonstrate a clear and viable pathway towards separating all elements of the periodic table that may constitute an agnostic solid feedstock, a requirement for achieving the Phase 1 and Phase 2 metrics of element utilization figure of merit.

@EtherDais @MinuteofZombie To clarify that was a template I needed to follow

@MinuteofZombie No argument that he's not culturally framed to submit to them in a coherent way We like to imagine though that darpa has free range minds inside that will grab something and find out how to exploit it and this misunderstands the organization afaict Calm down lol

@MinuteofZombie @EtherDais You are very wrong. This was a mandatory template I needed to follow

@REALspark_gap Correct linseed oil method. I still need to file the patent on how I actually connect the wires but hopefully that'll gonna be soon. I'm almost done finishing these orders I got

@iRowow Where do you get your graphite electrodes from? It seems like the consensus is to impregnate the graphite electrodes in boiled linseed oil, followed by drying in the sun or under UV light to fill the pores preventing acid degradation. Is this the method that you use?

@REALspark_gap @OwenGregorian @minwiswip I just met hyperspace in person yesterday!

While I'm a huge fan of this guy’s YouTube channel content, making a DIY ice maker using passive geothermal principles would be far more appealing to a larger segment of the population since these systems are simpler to make & inexpensive to build as there is no need for a compressor nor solar panels. It uses methanol stored in activated carbon as refrigerant. Linked below are some papers describing their construction, both of which are electricity-free systems, one that produces 1 kg ice daily using only solar energy in a semi-arid climate. @benmagelsen @iRowow sciencedirect.com/science/articl… sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

DIY solar cooling system freezes water by day, cools homes at night | Munis Raza, Interesting Engineering In real-world testing, the system cooled a truck cab significantly over a couple of hours on a warm day, validating the concept. Air conditioning accounts for roughly 10 percent of global electricity consumption, and that figure is rising fast. To address this challenge, a Florida resident created a functional off-grid cooling system built entirely from off-the-shelf parts — and the physics behind it are surprisingly compelling. How the system works The setup begins with three standard 100-watt solar panels mounted on a vehicle. These panels feed electricity to a charge controller, which manages how the battery is charged to prevent overcharging. The charge controller is connected to a 35-amp-hour lead-acid battery, a type of rechargeable battery commonly used for energy storage. When the battery is fully charged, a microcontroller—an electronic device programmed to control other devices—triggers an inverter that converts the battery’s direct current (DC) power to alternating current (AC) power. This powers a miniature refrigerator compressor running on R600 refrigerant, another name for n-butane, a type of refrigerant sealed in a closed loop system. That compressor draws heat from a 2-gallon water bucket wrapped in about 1-inch foam panels and fiberglass wool insulation, which slows heat transfer. Over several hours of direct Florida sun, the compressor cools the water, turning the entire bucket into a solid block of ice. This process stores approximately 2.5 million joules of thermal energy—in the form of heat—in an ordinary plastic container. Heat leaks back in at around 7 to 8 watts through the insulation, so the ice stays frozen for several days with minimal loss, well beyond a single night’s cooling requirement. Releasing the cold on demand The cooling side works through a separate glycol loop. A small pump circulates a 50/50 mix of water and ethylene glycol through 20 feet of copper tubing coiled inside the frozen block. The fluid absorbs cold from the ice and flows to a standard automotive radiator fitted with a small fan, pushing chilled air into the surrounding space. The pump and fan together draw only a few watts, so the battery can run them well after sunset without significant drain. In real-world testing, the system cooled a truck cab significantly over a couple of hours on a warm day, validating the concept. Discharge capacity is roughly 700 watts of effective cooling per hour — comparable to a small window air conditioner — delivered with almost no electricity at the point of use. Why ice beats batteries for this job The energy density of ice as a thermal storage medium is impressive. One cubic meter of ice holds about 93 kilowatt-hours of cooling capacity, comparable in energy to a large chemical battery pack but at a fraction of the cost and without degradation over charge cycles. Water never loses its latent heat of fusion no matter how many times it freezes and thaws. The compressor handles the energy-intensive freezing step during peak solar hours, when panels would otherwise throttle back or dump excess power. The stored cold is then released passively, shifting the cooling load to when it is needed — evening and night — without drawing from the grid. Scalable and practical The system’s architecture scales straightforwardly. A larger water tank and additional solar panels increase output proportionally, with one cubic meter of ice providing enough cooling for a small house. The creator notes the concept suits cabins, RVs, and off-grid structures particularly well — anywhere grid ties are impractical or expensive. Every component — panels, battery, compressor, copper tubing, radiator — is commercially available. The microcontroller code automatically handles voltage-based compressor cycling, protecting the battery while maximizing freeze time. interestingengineering.com/innovation/sol…

@McPickle7 Near Lakeland. Interestingly enough there's a company near me developing rare earth element separation. Though there's no mining industry in Florida

@iRowow I’m a Florida boy and have a heart for Florida. It use to just be orange groves and horse or cow country with some exceptions like Space Cove. It’s exciting to see how different parts of the State are becoming leading edge in different domains. ❤️

Just got these results from an amazing YouTuber. So amazing to see third party analysis proving I extract rhodium/iridium!!!!

@smartereveryday @MVPDiscSports Any way I can reach out to you? Would love to pay for your time. I'm working on some amazing open source technology that's about to change manufacturing. Would love to talk regarding your background in building your grill scrubber

Here it is. An hour and a half video about the Aerodynamics of Disc Golf flight. Thanks to @MVPDiscSports for sponsoring this. youtube.com/watch?v=-0JKHu…

For some background. He used aqua Regia which can't properly dissolve rhodium/iridium. So the numbers are a hugely under representative of what is actually there. That's why the gold is so high compared to the rest

@ShreddyBear Technology is proven and validated. Simply needs to be scaled with minor optimization and deployed

@iRowow — time to connect directly with these accounts and get real Ontario feedstocks tested. Demos & open-source membranes on YouTube/GitHub. Full details: rowow.net Who’s ready to move on this?

Here's a hard reality the experienced miners all talk about but never in public. Handheld xrf is a outright fraud for what people try using it for most of the time: youtu.be/EwCnjpFQbx8

@BillyM2k Google uses your answers to train its ai. That's why

@build4growthsv We have ways to create selective ion exchange membranes using my open sourced patent filed process. Basically you just use selective ion exchange resin

@iRowow Are those still very expensive compared to yours?

@McPickle7 Why do you want to know

@iRowow Which part of Florida are you in? You don’t have to be specific for security purposes; just generalities.

@build4growthsv No. Selective Ion exchange membranes solve the issue

@iRowow Do you see some kind of ion chromatography being possible?

I have my continuous refining unit which can seperate most base metals and leave the precious metals behind. It requires processing a few kgs of produces concentrate first in order to get a few grams of gold though. Something that is economically at scale as platinum group metals exist typically in the parts per billion

@iRowow Very interesting! What comes next you think to separate them out?
