Will a pitch droplet refuse to detach while being observed?
Possibly. Note that modern attempts to monitor "mysteriously" fail.
Are quantum effects involved?
It may be the same QE as what happens to missing socks.
That there are worse jobs than watching paint dry.

A few years ago I watched a Grammy go to an insipid song. I got mad and decided to write one to prove how easy it was. I wrote and recorded it in a relatively short time and I ended up with a composition worthy of playing in elevators world-wide.
Lyrics and melodies tend to be simple and repetitive, and both vocals and instruments are snapped to beat and pitch grids.
Not that I disagree but it sounds like a lot of the complaints from Big Band fans about Rock music. And Rock fans about Disco. And Disco fans about Punk. And Punk fans about...well, everything, but that's beside the point.
Back when this started I heard it was at 80% capacity before the spectacles. I understand that it improved somewhat until fixed.
It was a miscalculation made when grinding the mirror that didn't take gravity into account properly (because gravity warps the mirror, they had to take it into account).
That's not how I remember it. I had read that someone used a tool improperly, more in line w/ what Wiki sez:
The Allen Commission found that a reflective null corrector, a testing device used to achieve a properly shaped non-spherical mirror, had been incorrectly assembled. (One lens was out of position by 1.3 mm (0.051 in).
"...also need protection from a change of that period..."
And not only change of period, but change, period. Such as the loophole that Pharma uses, changing some minor bit of chemistry in a drug to extend their patents.
It's like that old xkcd comic about the nerd super excited about how the government can't break his encryption when in the next panel there are thugs planning on using the $5 wrench to beat it out of him.
Yeah, that was a memorable one, and perfectly illustrates one of your points. It reminds me of this bit of history:
'Will you not give up,' he said, 'reading laws to us men girt with swords?' - Pompey
Thanks for the reference, I wasn't aware of this.

The dam failed catastrophically in 1928, killing at least 431 people in the subsequent flood,[3][4] in what is considered to have been one of the worst American civil engineering disasters of the 20th century and the third-greatest loss of life in California history.[5][6][7]

There was a flood in 1862 that killed 4000 (est), and ofc the SF eq (est 6000).
When working at my first ReallyBigCorp I noticed that the presidents of vice would periodically present us with their pearls of wisdom. This one year the fad was "180 Reviews", where we grunts gave perf reviews on our managers. That happened exactly once.
Then one year it was "self-reviews", and it was expected to be more than the typical "what i did" list. I looked at my manager with "are you serious" on my face, and he gave a little shrug. I decided that I wasn't going to provide them any ammunition by listing my detriments as they wanted, so I went into sales-mode and gave myself a stellar review. I think my manager had to spend more time responding to my ad-copy than if had been a normal review. That happened exactly once.
"Of Japan’s 57 commercial reactors, 13 are currently in operation, 20 are offline and 24 others are being decommissioned, according to NRA."
Bullhockey. The young *always* find ways to party. Especially if they're poor. Been there, done that.
I was going to mod you funny but realized my cup is empty. brb
I really do not understand why so many people are willing to believe AI is all-powerful. There must be a widespread mental defect somewhere that can explain this disconnected belief.

The more cordial the buyer's secretary, the greater the odds that the competition already has the order.
