does bubble memory count as solid state?
I guess? I mean, it has no moving parts. but it requires preheating and involves movement of magnetic fields across a surface...

That falls apart when you consider that vacuum tubes aren't considered "solid state", something about how they use thermionic emission and magnetic fields is enough to push it out of the realm of just electron movement.

It has to warm up, yes, but it doesn't melt. The crystal remains solid, and only the magnetic fields move.
The other axis is managed by spinning the disc, and waiting for it to rotate around.

So LaserCard is an interesting format: It's fundamentally the same as CD-ROMs, LaserDisc, DVD, etc, but instead of spinning, it's a flat grid layout. pic.twitter.com/bRmMCNL1vD

does it count as solid state if doesn't move while in use, but it's connected to things that do?
they're immobile, and the universe spins around them?
solid state discs aren't "solid state" because they're not moving. not moving has nothing to do with if they're solid state or not
integrated circuits. all the flash memory stuff happens inside a die of silicon.
It's a chunk of garnet, not anything semiconductory
I want to make a rotating solid state disk.

I was actually researching something about slip rings, and found this lovely picture.

There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.
Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan. Be aware of the information you\u2019re sharing and that it may be false. Always #factcheck #GeorgeNkencho pic.twitter.com/4c9w4CMk5h

Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.
There is a concerted effort in far-right Telegram groups to try and incite violence on street by targetting people for racist online abuse following the killing of George Nkencho

This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
