That sounds like a really bad place to have someone exhausted and half asleep working at.
- Comment on Pretty but pointless 6 days ago:
Definitely nobody has ever used a frying pan on this stove.

You don’t get paid out your vacation time?
Oof.

This is a world with flying broomsticks and cars, teleportation, and even time travel.
Of course you can get away with saying gunpowder just doesn’t explode here.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
Dude, you’re being a pedant in the comments of a Harry Potter shitpost.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
The only difference is that the combustion event in an ICE is subsonic (deflagration) while the combustion in a gun is supersonic (detonation).
So what you’re saying is there’s a fundamental difference between the two?
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
Nope, there’s a fundamental difference between a fuel/air mixture burning and something like gunpowder, which is a self oxidising propellant. Most explosives are in the latter category.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
No, they’re a combustion event. An actual explosion (detonation, pre ignition) is really bad news for an engine.
Firearms use a self oxidising propellant, so it would be quite easy to say that just doesn’t work.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
Look, we’re talking about a world where people fly around on broomsticks like we ride bicycles.
Of course you can just declare that firearms don’t work.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
Combustion, sure, but not an explosion. Or the car is a special magic car or whatever.
- Comment on Anon learns a new spell 1 week ago:
I’m a little bit surprised Rowling didn’t throw in something about some human technology not working in the wizarding world, like electronics and firearms. Surely this came up while the books were being written.
- Comment on Not sure about this one 1 week ago:
When someone says lifeguard, I think bored teenager by the pool making sure people don’t drown. Not the coast guard.

They’re all multi millionaires, which always helps.

Some of their comedy stuff was pure genius, like midget bar fight for example.
Genuinely a hilarious bunch of dudes.

That’s far too reasonable a viewpoint, you’ll get banned from your instance talking like that.

You’re on ML, rabidly hating the rich should be your thing.

Trustafarian is an absolutely brilliant insult.

Lightning fast shitpost creation is one AI use case I’m fully behind.

Yeah, it’s legal here.
- Comment on They even got their own island 2 weeks ago:
At college, there were 16 and 17 year old girls with boyfriends in their twenties. Even at the time, I thought that was weird.
At least I never heard about anything younger than that.
- Comment on Solar powered personal umbrella with battery? 3 weeks ago:
Why do you need to charge your phone during the day anyway? Does it not last a full day?
- Comment on Solar powered personal umbrella with battery? 3 weeks ago:
That would be effectively worthless if it was used as displayed, with the panel on the backpack. Solar panels perform best when directly facing the sun, as soon as you start to angle them away, they lose output.
I’ve had reasonable results with leaving them on the ground all day though.
- Comment on Solar powered personal umbrella with battery? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s my experience as well, you leave them out all day and get half a power bank if you’re lucky. Basically only worthwhile if you’re camping somewhere remote for an extended period of time.
