#lowbackgroundsteel — Public Fediverse posts

I have an archive of all the spam email I've received since 2002. [1] I should sell it as an LLM "training data set". Whatcha think, Sam? Ten grand, super cheap! Almost all of it is low-background text!

"Why does this model suddenly want to sell me sketchy shit?"

[1] Though this doesn't include stuff my filters bounced before it got this far, so it's "only" a little over 166,000 emails.

🤔 Ah yes, the riveting tale of Low-background Steel—because who isn't clamoring for metal that's not radioactive or AI-generated? 🙄 In a world where AI is the villain du jour, thank goodness we have websites devoted to pre-1945 #shipwrecks as our salvation. Talk about sinking to new depths for content! 🚢💥

"Low-background steel, also known as pre-war steel, is any steel produced prior to the detonation of the first nuclear bombs in the 1940s and 1950s. Typically sourced from ships (either as part of regular scrapping or shipwrecks) and other steel artifacts of this era, it is often used for modern particle detectors because more modern steel is contaminated with traces of nuclear fallout."
