I can imagine it might be a tad difficult to produce processors on a nanometer scale if the entire building is shaking violently.

Absolutely, but calling it a reference implies that it was intentional by the writer, which seems unlikely considering what he's said about such things.

Not everything needs to have deep/real-world meaning. As i recall, Tolkien really didn't like people ascribing such things to his writing. They're just stories and should be treated as such.

Idk man, have you done the math on whether the universe expands yourself? Because i haven't. I simply believe that the scientists who have aren't lying to me, same as I believe that Jupiter is in fact a giant sphere of gas, because that's what I've been told.

No one can verify all of science, so we must all trust that those who came before us got things right (unless we discover that they didn't ofc).

Therefore, i believe in science.

Iirc, the problem with desalination is that it doesn't actually produce salt, just a very salty water slurry. So for them to produce usable salt they'd have to dry it out or something. Not that that sounds like it would be particularly difficult, but it's an extra step.

Bluesky is the same, i essentially only use the "latest from follows" tab, which is just posts from people you follow in chronological order. So much better than whatever garbage the big ones tried to feed me until i quit.

That's a fair point, i can absolutely see Gandalf the Grey justifying with something like "there is more evil in this world than just Sauron".
