When people have waxed poetic about their oxygen-free mains cords,

quality of their sound
There is scientific proof that studying music helps with math aptitude
and vice versa.

any of the Voyager computer details were public. I have not found much
detailed information online.
I don't think it is a security concern, who has a big enough antenna.

How many Gauss would you get from vinyl, spinning at 33.3, 45, or 78 RPM?

I recall an ad for a 'double-helix, special' 6-foot power cord going for $500
(or more) claiming that it would make your main power amplifier sound better
with better mains power - that's about the time I started calling them
"audio-fools"
A quick search of these revealed a power cord at 2.5

Mathemathics and music is not a rare combination - see Tom Lehrer, for
instance.

I doubt that creating deisel fuel is purely mechanical. pumping and processing
both. And the glow plug to start is electrical, so will a blowtorch heat it
enough to start without damaging the engine? Of course the propane for the
blowtorch is another issue. Maybe a few farm tractors, with
Sure, but classic Diesel engines are purely mechanical.
