Beware of the #dangers of #Silicon #Dioxide!

- Silicon Dioxide is a side product of dehydration of #asbestos
- Inhaling Silicon Dioxide causes #silicosis which is a condition that can fatally damage the lungs
- Silicon Dioxide is commonly used to contain #DihydrogenMonoxide
- Silicon Dioxide is a substance frequently warned about on packages
- Silicon Dioxide is used to manufacture #5G endpoint devices
- Silicon Dioxide is used by the #military to direct the effect of #TerahertzRadiation at the intended target
- Silicon Dioxide is a chemical known to the State of #California to cause #cancer.
- Silicon Dioxide is an essential component of #Molotov Cocktails
- Substantial amounts of Silicon Dioxide are often among trash washed up by the sea
- Silicon Dioxide, even in form of medium sized crystals, is a known "chicken killer"
- Silicon Dioxide is, as known for a long time, where the #foolish man built his home
- Silicon Dioxide is a commonly used extinguishing agent for Class D fires
- Contact with Silicon Dioxide often causes bleeding and injuries up to and including death
- Silicon Dioxide is used to enhance the effect of abrasive blasting, and can even chip away at steel
- Silicon Dioxide is often shipped alongside other dangerous chemicals such as #SulfuricAcid
- Just small quantities of Silicon Dioxide in your bed can cause #insomnia

Despite all this, even today Silicon Dioxide is still used as a building material for homes! #SiliconDioxide #conspiracy

Spruce Pine just got hit by Helene. The fallout on the tech industry could be huge : NPR

A tiny town in North Carolina that’s just been devastated by hurricane Helene could end up severely disrupting the global supply chain for microchips and solar panels.

A #macro #perspective of a #blue #quartz #crystal.
Quartz (#SiliconDioxide) is normally a colorless crystal, but inclusions of other #silicate #minerals creates a blue-hued crystal.

#Quartz is a #crystal form of #SiliconDioxide (#SiO2) in a trigonal crystal system.
Other #mineral forms of silicon dioxide exist, but quartz is probably one of the most common.
Other things can be included into the crystal, or the crystal structure can be deformed, both of which are forms of #flaws in the crystal.
