Are you able to determine the density of the powder you have by measuring a known volume and weighing it? And then compare this density to the molar mass of the compounds in question?

Also not quite what you’re asking, but do note that Magnesium Glycinate and Magnesium Bisglycinate are chemically different even though some brands market them as the same. If you’re taking this for health reasons, Magnesium is the active ingredient and the glycinate helps your body absorb it; bisglycinate is more effective at the absorption but you get significantly less Magnesium per serving/molar mass. Disclaimer: not a doctor/scientist but I have tried and researched both for my own health usage

If you’re concerned about the taste, Mg glycinate/bisglycinate/citrate are all available in pill capsule (and I think flavored gummy?) form.

I was able to post the images on a new community on my host instance. It looks like there is ultimately always going to be some degradation of image quality if I use my instance as the host, but this workaround is a improvement over the images being posted onto the main post directly. Thanks for the help!

I found a high resolution scan of the first page of the Constitution. After deciding on my scale, I superimposed a 78x64 square grid over the scan, as well as a separate 65x64 rectangular grid for when I was building in the vertical dimension. After hemming and hawing for about year about over how to best to depict the paragraph text, I eventually decided that random shaping was the only viable option with the medium. However, using the grids as a reference allowed me to place the larger text, the indentations, new lines, and empty spaces in nearly their precise locations as on the original document.

Side note: the scale wasn’t determined by the text, but rather by needing the thickness of the stripes to be evenly divisible by the width of the brick separator. I opted to be 15% undersized rather than 13% oversized since it would be an easier task plus I thought it would look better scaled to the brick separator.

Thanks! I don’t think any other medium could be nearly as conducive to conveying the critical parts of this piece as Lego is, especially with orange being by far the most common color for the modern brick separator and red being by far the most common color for the crowbar piece.

Thanks, I’ll try to look into this and see what I can do

Thank you! He’s shrugging apathetically because he thinks that’s the most effective thing he can do in response to what’s going on next to him.

Thank you!

Thank you! I’m incredibly flattered. It is indeed mine. I was thinking just today of how to go about finding a proper gallery for this.

Side note: Does anybody know why the additional photos are in lower resolution or how to upload them in a way that retains their original resolution?

Thank you!

I don’t think i/o (or o/i) had AI generated music. A number of the songs had been works-in-progress for years since Gabriel had performed early versions of them live in concert prior. In his full moon updates for each song, there is sometimes footage of the performers in the studio with instruments and even an orchestra or choir at times. I remember specifically he cited Brian Eno’s “electric worms” synths for the fifth track. There had also been a substantial time gap since Gabriel put out his previous album, and he notably likes to mix genres, including world music. If any artist would evolve their style atypically for their age, it would be Gabriel.

Sorry if my title didn’t communicate that clearly but I do agree!

What was the extent of Syme’s efforts on this? Making each detail and movement, or simply typing what he wanted to see into an image generator? I don’t see it fitting what I’ve seen of his historic style

It was this or a static image of their album cover

The word “or” here is incorrect. Reuploads of the same song is an apparent method to stimulate views and thus get ad revenue. “Between the Wheels”, for example, has

• Static image of album art

• Static image of 2026 super deluxe album art

• AI visualizer 1

• AI visualizer 2

all uploaded through Rush’s official channel

In most cases, I expect that moves like this are by the record company/rightsholders/whoever as a cheap cash-grab rather than the artist themselves. Peter Gabriel is a vocal exception to that.

The origin is one thing, but even a cursory read of lyrics reveals the meaning, which the music video misses

Neil is proverbially rolling in his grave (I can’t determine if he was cremated or not)

Those trophy figs were supposed to be Elrond and Isildur 😅

I had also found the modern 2x2 macaroni brick works, but it doesn’t feel good to connect the two since it is a tight squeeze.
