Decades of colliding hardons and what do we have to show for it

[-] reaper_cushions@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago

Just the Higgs boson, which is exactly what the LHC was originally built for. But other than the intended results, it’s been basically useless!

Tbf, there are quite a few big experiments that have been done and will be done with the LHC, not just the Higgs boson search.

The hardons haven't been colliding fast enough. Sorry boys, I don't make the rules

Confirmation of the principles they built the thing to demonstrate.

Every time so far.

This isn't far off from some dipshit saying the place program was a waste of resources.

I think they were making a hardon joke more than questioning scientific research

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 5 points 4 months ago

I need to remind myself people here aren't as dumb (or dumber depending on how much you like the hardon joke) as you average internet user and maybe lower my defense a couple notches.

it was about the hardons we collided along the way
