Timeline for Teleportation is invented but it has nasty side-effects % of the time, how will that affect usage of the technology?

Oct 31, 2019 at 20:05 | comment | added | pluckedkiwi | @dgnuff in case you were not aware, experiments in underwater habitation used heliox (gas mixture of helium and oxygen) to prevent nitrogen narcosis. There was a documentary made with interviews with the subjects - with the vocal peculiarities you would expect. | |

It's when the atmosphere is pure O2 and at higher pressures, like 1atm, that non-flammable things start getting unusually burny. | |

Oct 30, 2019 at 3:19 | comment | added | dgnuff | Given that you don't need a large volume, could you use another inert gas, e.g. helium, to keep to the ~20% Oxygen ratio in the current atmosphere. Which also has some possibilities for a little comic relief if this ever gets made into a film. ;) | |
