I used to donate blood, but sadly a medication I take prevents me from doing so anymore. One time I even donated two units since they were particularly low on that type. You have my respect.
I also help do compatibility testing for an emulator, though life has kept me from doing that recently.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If I got in a collision with a car from the 70s with a car today, would not the 70s car win out since it would primarily be metal? If so why don't people buy more 70's cars?English
7·1 month agoAnother thing to point out is the newer car is “only” a 2009 model. We’ve had another 17 years since then to make them even safer still.
It’d be interesting to see how much cars have improved since then.
That’s the other thing, too. It’s rare to be in a situation where you could inhale it. The only example I can think, which is also a rare situation, is if a vehicle that uses it is involved in some kind of accident and breaks the piece of carbon fiber. That could release it into the air causing you to breathe it in.
If you want a more literal, chemist answer: carbon fiber. Carbon fiber’s chemical structure is surprisingly similar to Asbestos. Even though we barely use it for anything due to the difficulty in producing it, it’s most likely just as harmful to us as asbestos.

I once saw a man in Arkansas, who had a saw which could out saw any saw that it saw saw; the man said, “Have you saw a saw that could out saw the saw you saw in Arkansas? If you have saw a saw that could out saw the saw you saw in Arkansas, show me the saw saw.”; when he said that I saw a saw, I said, “Yes I did saw a saw in Arkansas, and what a saw I saw, that saw saw!!”
