(happy guyblowki?)Graphene is a form of carbon in which the atoms are arranged in a flat hexagon lattice like microscopic chicken wire, a single atom thick. It is not only the thinnest material in the world, but also the strongest: a sheet of it stretched over a coffee cup could support the weight of a truck bearing down on a pencil point.
Among its other properties, graphene is able to conduct electricity and heat better than any other known material, and it is completely transparent. Physicists say that eventually it could rival silicon as a basis for computer chips, serve as a sensitive pollution-monitoring material, improve flat screen televisions, and enable the creation of new materials and novel tests of quantum weirdness, among other things.

awesome, just in time for their budgets to be slashed.

Moore's Law states that Graphene will double in stator capacity every 2 years.

how does this relate to guyblowki? :/

"improve flat screen televisions"
fuck this shit. who gives a fuck about flat screen tvs???

Re: This is why I'm not upgrading my computer just now...
probably the best nerd-joke I've ever dropped... should archive that one for posterity.

It's a top of the line joke, but sadly a bit too specific to be put to general useDr_Watson wrote:probably the best nerd-joke I've ever dropped... should archive that one for posterity.
