This fuse is actually in jslife, under fuses in d-3333333.lif

A c/3 long barge crawler is an interesting idea. Is there anything like that known already? It seems likely that such a thing exists - here are some signals which support that idea (search inspired by your post!)

Edit: moved to signals thread.

This c/3 double long barge fuse lays a double barber pole:

x = 51, y = 51, rule = B3/S23

The 5S project (Smallest Spaceships Supporting Specific Speeds) is now maintained by AforAmpere. The latest collection is hosted on GitHub and contains well over 1,000,000 spaceships.

Is this known?

I was so socially awkward in the past and it will haunt me for the rest of my life.

I knew that!!! But I wasn't sure.
I discovered this while testing my Scratch cellular automata script.

Can small adjustable spaceships overrun the speed limit of (|x|+|y|)/P = 1?

That is not an accidental discovery, and please stop posting the same thing in multiple places. This is already known as well, as you've posted it in 2 other spots on March 16.
I manage the 5S project, which collects all known spaceship speeds in Isotropic Non-totalistic rules. I also wrote EPE, a tool for searching in the INT rulespace.

Things to work on:
- Find (7,1)c/8 and 9c/10 ships in non-B0 INT.
- EPE improvements.

Nice one... too bad about that little problem with the syringe version.

Let's see, we could add a reflector to make it a periodic G-to-H... unfortunately we seem to need a p11 or p13 spark source to make that work, since the trailing glider reappears after 143 ticks:

Don't give up, though! There are more syringes out there somewhere, for sure -- or at least, the odds seem awfully good.

I do not know if there is some mean to generate such a spark (middle), but there might be means to avoid needing an additional glider.

The second one would some to allow a p146 loop in the same vein as dvgrn's p143 loop, but unfortunately it doesn't work because the first glider hits the eater 2.

My bad... some cut-and-paste action mislead me. this still works without the eater though, but you would need to kill the block with an additional glider input. I might be missing some point here, but for the periods you have been talking about, pairing this with a gun seems to be the simplest "periodic solution", and any period works if so.

The issue with using a glider from the track to fix the insert is that you effectively need a periodic input, if so, I do not see why a periodic gun into a syringe is already a valid solution to this problem.

The pond siamese hat can be recovered in no more than eight gliders, but I'm not sure how that helps to de-uselessify this wonderful discovery...?

Comments.
I can't see any immediate application and I doubt there is any way to switch it back to the pond siamese hat with a single signal of some kind. If there is indeed something this can be used for, it will require either amazing creative thinking or perhaps a clever Bellman search.

I'm not sure if that still life could be considered "useful" but that is a very nice component.

Cute! This is technically not a heisenburp, because the glider is destroyed and reforms later. In a true heisenburp, the glider is itself not affected, but only affects the thing approaching it. (This is the same as the difference between an eater and a rock.)

Well I did describe it with a (-like) suffix to ward off nomenclature purists, which I knew would definitely note this misuse of the term 'heisenburp'; however, I failed. Indeed, the curse of desiring to put forward that stringent set accumulated precise vocabulary that some long time game of life enthusiasts have cannot be undone. Well, that now I have to look up what a 'rock' is, hurrah!
