8 5/8" x 5 3/8" x 1 5/8"
Don’t write yourself off yet, learn metric.
It’s only in your head you feel left out or looked down on…
just try your best, try everything you can
And don’t you worry what they tell themselves when you’re away
moving from Europe to America the amount of times I’m like “it’s 12 3/8ths” to try to, yknow, join in, and everyone’s like “call it 12 or 13”
motherfucker that’s a huge gap!
For most of the rest of the world, that’s about 219 mm × 137 mm × 41,3 mm
For those of us that don’t use arbitrary made up units at all, that’s 1.35515609E+34 Planck Length x 8.477460474E+33 Planck Length x 2.555613997E+33 Plank Length.
Use real measurements. A meter is how far light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second? Statements made by the utterly deranged.
Finally a truly universally usable measurement for everyday use
I’m sorry but… Length and Units? Actually disgusting. There is only ONE thing that exists, and it is inversely proportional the base rate of growth in half of a circular degree about a complex orthogonal dimension.
Anyone else notice that a large flat rate box has the same limit and the post only counts a small flat rate box?
What about a ’ shrodingers 71 pounds ’ cat.’
If it was dead before you put it in the box, it’s still dead.
True but if it is 71 befor putting it in…
Inside the box it can stay 71 or… loose fat to 35 . You can only know by picking up the box.
You’ll have an idea by the ooze around the box, but that too is an observation
Could you create a device that would compress some substance to the extent it would reach this weight or is that impossible?
Such devices exist, namely stars. Neutron stars are theorized to have neutronium at their core, essentially a soup of neutrons so densely packed that nothing else fits between them - in order words, the densest theoretical material (osmium is the densest material found on Earth).
I guess I forgot to say it needs to fit in the package lol. I know it’s possible in extreme environments but can you create such an environment in this package is the question.
no, i mean theoretically who knows, but practically no. compressing something to be more dense than a solid is energy intense. you are surpassing the bond energy of moleculesto do it. second, compressing enough osmium is going to take less, but still bigajoules, of energy. the compressive stress is immense. anything that could hold thht stress is much too big to fit in the package.
Just toss a few teaspoons of black hole in there.
Just have the package delivered to the black hole and watch usps get it there rain or snow
Where the fuck did USPS get those super-powerful electromagnets from and how do they know to use them to manipulate impossibly heavy packages!?!
.
No idea, man. I just saw that thing in the company warehouse and started pressing buttons
I wouldn’t be too surprised if you could achieve that kind of density for a few fractions of a second with explosive powered compression. I’m thinking something like the electromagnetic flux compression technique used by Nakamura et al to make the 1200T magnetic field back in 2018. The package absolutely wouldn’t exist for long though lol
Good news, it’s 20-30 years away!
I believe that would be some form of fusion
So yes, for a moment
But also no
A very large no.
So…kinda yes?
He forgot packaging, gotta protect the ultra dense substance from bumps and scuffs
What about one tablespoon of material from a neutron star?
If you stuffed that box with neutronium then:
-
Funny event: it’s so dense the Earth itself is basically a thin gas in comparison and it immediately falls through the floor, the ground, and the mantle to oscillate around in the core.
-
Funny other event: It’s so massive it dominates gravity nearby and everything within a couple of meters gets turned into Cool Physics from aggregating onto an incompressible box really fast and hard. Maybe the nearby atmosphere ignites from being compressed into plasma against the box.
-
Real physics step in and the neutronium immediately decompresses and the mass equivalent of an inland ocean in neutrons and angry high-energy high-mass decay products sterilizes everything through to the horizon with a gamma ray burst, also triggering massive seismic events from the blast as well as killing everything on Earth since the atmosphere is now radioactive and a lot thinner
Part two turning things into cool physics made me giggle IRL, good job
Ugh… does this mean I have to go all the way down to post office to get my package again?
- Sweet
- Also sweet
- Yikes okay don’t try that then. Though I am tempted to observe the cool physics…
-
at a typical temperature and pressure, sure.
What about dark matter? One pound of it weighs over 10000 pounds.
Doesn’t matter. You won’t see it til it too late.
Do we have a source for this or are you just joking?
It’s what happens when all the gravitons and graviolis get mixed up
It’s true. One kilogram of dark matter weighs as much as ten thousand kilograms of feathers.
Neutronium… I am having early 2000s trivia website flashbacks! Wasn’t a teaspoon of that stuff several tons or something?
I’m not sure if it’s a hard weight or just guesstimate to illustrate its heavy, but I always heard that a teaspoon would weigh as much as a city
A quick search just told me that it’s been hypothesized that a teaspoon of it would weigh around 10 billion tons on Earth
Damn! How much does that weigh in feathers?
Yep. Or a mountain, something like that.
On the order of a billion tons.
Tariffs on neutronium are out of this world though.
Wait until I fill that box with quark-gluon plasma.
I’ll go one better.
A (non-spinning uncharged) black hole with diameter 1+5/8th inches (so it fits in the box) has a mass of about 2.3 earths.(Near as I can tell QGP filling the whole box is around a ten billionth of that.)
Of course the box would Very quickly no longer be outside the black hole. QGP would also cause the box to no longer be a container in short order. To put it mildly.
Wouldn’t the box forever be outside the black hole… as in just on the surface as it would need to exceed the speed of light in order to actually enter the event horizon?..or is that our of date knowledge?
You need to supercede the speed of light to exit the singularity, not enter it. Now we would see an image of the box entering the black hole on its “surface” until that faded, but the box itself would still very much enter the event horizon and be destroyed.
Not only does your explanation match my understanding, but your username suggests you know this stuff.
It would also reach its destination very quickly. Or rather the other way around. Free delivery.
At what velocity are the box’s dimensions and effective mass determined?
Osmium isn’t the densest substance known to humans it’s just the densest element
What is the densest substance we can fill the box with?
A black hole.
Your mom (geez guys, did I really have to do that?)
bruh your username 😭😭 respect.
also, surely flerovium and the other mostly-theoretical elements would be denser, no? at least for a couple microseconds until they yeet some protons and fling themselves apart.
Would densest substance on earth be accurate or are there denser substances like alloys or non-standard crystal configurations of other elements which are denser than pure osmium?
Apparently neither of you are aware of how dense I am. ;)
But do you fit into that box? 🤔
first, ya cut a hole in that box…
I’m pretty sure you’re about to break a lot of postal regulations.
You know…
Looking at the list of restricted items, you can’t mail live animals, or cremated remains. But if you mail only your dick in a box it wouldn’t really be live anymore and isn’t cremated (yet). I suppose it could fall under perishable items though.
You can get a kit!

I had ordered some stickers but they never sent them. :(
Cutting a hole suggests that, like in the song, the dick will still be attached to him, violating the rule against live animals.
Nothing one of those fancy new blenders couldn’t handle.
I have mixed feelings about this.
Don’t breathe this.
