  Boiling a mug of water by blowing hot air on it is going to take a while. My guess is if someone was to try this (which I don’t recommend) it’s going to take longer than 10-12 minutes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favorite 1000+ hour games?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The only two games I have that I’ve put more than 1000 hours in are Factorio and Rimworld. I’d highly recommend both.

  It’s not actually wrong, but it certainly didn’t answer the actual question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I got all but one achievement in Subnautica, and all of the achievements in Below Zero (the sequel) in my first playthrough of both games, just from taking my time and thoroughly exploring both of the worlds and completing the story.

  With that said, they are open world games and at times don’t really give you a whole of guidance as to what you need to do next. So you are kind of left to explore and figure it out on your own. If you don’t like that sort of game you might end up hating them by the end too.

  I was always a bit impressed by those shuttles. They are warp capable and apparently capable of maintaining warp speed for at least several weeks. Not bad for something the size of a large van.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people throw out old motors, bicycles, anything metal into rivers and lakes instead of a junk yard or the trash system?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Junk also tend to accumulate in rivers and lakes. Once it’s in there it’s out of sight, out of mind - and even if you know it’s there it is hard to remove.

  When it finally gets cleaned up by bringing in the magnet or a barge or whatever, you’re seeing years if not decades of stuff that’s getting pulled out all at once.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And it went Gold⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And here I thought it was referring to “Robot Rock”. Though I suppose that’s only two words.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let π = 5⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It would be theoretically possible in a universe based upon non-Euclidean geometry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s one of the reasons I lost interest as a kid, as I really didn’t know what to do and you could totally wander into an area you just weren’t ready for yet. For that reason, I liked FF2 (FF4 everywhere else) as that one pretty much guided you along on rails.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was thinking about that game as I was scrolling this thread. That’s one I should revisit myself. I played that game a lot when I was younger, but managed to never complete it as I always lost interest sometime during the World of Ruin.
