| 17:17.58 | whitequark | DocScrutinizer: are you serious about lightning? |
| 17:18.22 | whitequark | well, I understand that a green laser powerful enough could create some ions in the air |
| 17:18.31 | whitequark | but I guess it takes much more to attract a lightning, too? |
| 17:18.35 | whitequark | schedules some tests |
| 17:19.05 | whitequark | (... maybe I should write a testament) |

| 17:38.04 | wpwrak | the main risk is probably that an alien SETI probe detects that powerful beam and activates its gravitational shields as defense, with the resulting shockwave obliterating nearby celestial bodies |
| 17:45.32 | whitequark | I'm fine with that |
| 17:46.04 | whitequark | we have quite a lot of celestial bodies |

| 22:58.27 | wpwrak | added bonus if it also works with a cloudless sky :) |
| 23:20.16 | DocScrutinizer | whitequark: nope |
| 23:21.05 | DocScrutinizer | by mere physical rules it should hit me, not the neighbour's roof |
| 23:21.34 | DocScrutinizer | IF it would cause anything, which obviously won't happen at 150mW |

| 23:40.15 | whitequark | yeah, that's what I thought too |
| 23:40.40 | whitequark | and I'd say that here power doesn't matter as much as wavelength does, no? |
| 23:41.10 | whitequark | if you had a UV laser focused at the point at the top of your neighbor's house, it would have been much more effective |
