I blame all three + the driver again for buying this stupid fucking truck they probably don’t even need and won’t benefit them 99% time. But hey, it excels at killing children in driveways, so that’s something.

This but unironically. I want to be able to shape shift at will

I was thinking Mandalorian

It doesn’t get destroyed, it just splits into smaller things. Decay chains contain a number of reactions, which involve emission of a particular “particle”: alpha particle (helium nucleus), beta- particle (electron), beta+ particle (positron) or gamma particle (photon), accompanied by stuff like neutrinos and antineutrinos. Thus a radioactive sample “loses” mass and energy. You can also have nuclear fission, where a heavy nucleus splits into smaller nuclei.

This isn’t the full scope of nuclear reactions (there’s stuff like electron capture, proton/neutron emission, etc.), but it should explain the problem at hand.

Edit: obviously half-life doesn’t mean after that time sample shrinks in half, it means half of the original isotope remains while half has decayed. There would be lead and unstable decay products in the sample still. Radioactive isotopes don’t decay to nothing, they decay to stable isotopes.

It is a wish fulfillment fantasy most of the time, that’s why I really appreciate series which go out of their way to deconstruct that aspect of the genre, like Re:Zero or Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari. Especially Re:Zero, which shows what would actually happen if you put a shut-in NEET loser otaku into a fantasy world.

This is a way for shitty writers to justify infodumping in their story. If your main character doesn’t know shit about the world he just got put into, you can justify every other character dumping a huge load of setting and world building down his ear canal. Instead of, like, trying to mix that info naturally into the story, which also avoids the “as you know, John…” trope (where character A explains something to character B that they already should know), but requires effort and skill on the part of the author.

You could present those guys with a supermodel or the fucking platonic ideal of a woman and they would go “that’s 7.1 at most, stop overrating”

Including yourself, clearly. Nice touch with the casual misogyny btw

I can’t even imagine what kind of horrible person I’m in your head for you to take a common expression and make this shit up. The type of people I was talking about were morons like Bench Appearo, Dim Fool and the guy who punched that firefighter, and left wing commentators are probably gonna respond to them. It’s just kinda annoying when every single commentary/polital youtuber talks about the same piece of media at the same time. No need for you to get fired up over my personal pet peeves.

Well, I just asked because I was curious why people are talking about it, I’m not interested in the movie itself.

Every few months people will get raved up about something I couldn’t give less of a fuck about and for about a month the internet becomes hell as everyone talks about this thing, from general topic podcasts to political streamers, etc. It was like that with the stupid purple hitler marvel movies, Squid Game, Arcane, etc.

Since it’s somewhat political a number of people are bound to get their panties twisted in a bunch so hell will probably continue for the foreseeable future.

I’m gonna be honest, I have no idea what’s up with the whole Barbie movie thing. Why would any person over the age of 7 care about it? Why is the whole internet obsessed over it? Genuine question

That’s something you may think if you’re 5 y/o and going on vibes. Every decision you face not only has the consequences if you choose it, but also if you don’t.

A pure hypothetical to demonstrate the general principle on an extreme example (not a direct comparison): you have an election with two candidates: one runs on a promise of Holocaust 2.0 and the other will twist your ankle after he wins. Would you say you can’t choose because both are bad? Obviously you would under any case want to avoid the worse outcome. Because not doing anything is risking that bad outcome, even if the alternative is bad. The upcoming election is not that extreme, but my example should have demonstrated the principle: inaction in face of greater evil is wrong.

There is no absolute good in this world, and if you can’t choose between Kamala Harris and those horrible people you moral compass is out of whack. When you don’t vote, the choice is made for you. Whether something is good or bad has to be evaluated considering possible alternatives, you can’t just not choose and expect a miracle to happen.

Compared to what? Trump? DeSantis? I don’t think so.

Never say never, but I don’t think it matters all that much, with Trump in jail. But to answer your question, incumbent changing their running mate seems tantamount to admitting failure and you want people to view your administration as successful.

Have you ever seen stuff like Occillococcinum or anything made by company Boiron? They don’t advertise it as homeopathy, so even if you saw a homeopathic sugar pill you wouldn’t necessarily know. That’s a part of the scam

How would we know if she’s chubby from that angle?

I popped my eyes out of my skull, submerged them in bleach for 30 minutes and underwent electroshock therapy by sticking a particularly wet fork into a power outlet, just to completely erase this image from my mind and retinas.

Armenia is the weaker side. Azerbaijan has to deal with refugees from Nagorno-Karabakh because of Armenia but they have been overstepping their previous claims in recent years. I don’t see a good side to this, but currently Armenia is the least bad side.

It’s so rare to see someone speak the voice of reason on future technology matters. People think we’ll be able to do anything, when there are physical limits to just how far we can advance current technology.

Even if we invented something new, you have to deal with the size restrictions of atoms. Silicon has an atomic radius of 1.46 Å, gold 1.35 Å, and our current process for manufacturing that’s in development is a 2 nm, or 20 Å process, although that number doesn’t mean much, since the measurements are closer to 20 nm (metal pitch). There are experiments dating back about a decade where someone created a transistor out of a phosphorus atom. We’re a lot closer to the end than we might realize.
