So many kinds of cheese work better grilled than American “cheese”, you’d be surprised.
Also, some work very well grilled with bread, but yours is a serious competitor there.

I think you’ll need ionizing radiation, not microwaves.
- Comment on Can other countries impose sanctions on the US? 1 day ago:
China have done so a couple of times already, responding to the US put sanctions on them. That’s what the “rare earth” stuff on the news is about.
Large countries tend to not respond to sanctions the same way than smaller ones. With enough people interested, there are many ways to evade sanctions, and a dynamic economy can always adapt and use different products or services.

Well… Personally, I am. I’ve snacked on a block of Parmesan and it’s not a good post-experience.
Still, I’m pretty sure I’ll do it again.

Yes, but if you were the scammer, would you collect the clay bricks of everybody that complains?

After a Russian attack, I highly doubt it.
The world would be too busy building nuclear bunkers.

Imagine if Putin managed to launch an attack and kill Trump.
There would be a few random weirdo on the streets celebrating his death. We are seeing the Venezuelan version of those weirdos.

Yes, it’s content. But I can’t complain, I’ve been warned.
- Comment on I love science 3 days ago:
But Darwin, as far as I recall, didn’t use math at all.
You should take a look at modern evolution theories.
A whole host of sciences don’t approach their problems through mathematically described laws or even statistical models.
“Models” are something mathematical by definition. A lot of sciences have very simple models that people can handle without formalism. They are still mathematical, even if you don’t need to calculate things.

At the 80s UFO conspiracies were already in full power. But the US government had a few cases of messing with people just for the lulz at that time, so who knows?
Anyway, the idea that aliens were invading seem to have spread at around the time the US government spend a few years flying a lot of weird objects in secret¹. But it may also be a coincidence.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 week ago:
Just to add, in Brazil we usually have 1l cartoons of UHT milk or 1l bags of pasteurized milk.
Pasteurized milk goes bad in 3 days or so, and many people can’t run through the entire 1l in that time. UHT milk will last for a good 2 weeks after opened, so I guess that’s the kind you buy.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 week ago:
You buy milk in gallon-sized hard plastic containers?
Is that a restaurant thing? How much does a gallon of milk last in your family?

It’s the sound a joke makes when it passes over somebody’s head.

If you wanted to make a high quality plug, you’d use a stainless steel guide. It has to be steel because it’s elastically deformed during insertion, and any plating will be scratched with enough use.
Most plugs don’t work that way, but this one model does.
- Comment on "i can hear the difference" 1 week ago:
Yes.
It’s also for digital signals, so interference doesn’t matter (up to the point it stops everything).
But hey, it also has a silver ABS grip.

Ouch this was yours?
The shitposting community is having an identity crisis right now and don’t know what their rules are. My guess is it was interpreted as being about politics, but I doubt anybody could even explain it further.
- Comment on I have an idea ☝️ 1 week ago:
It looks like the world can support the current population. Barely.
But yeah, low birth rate is not something that must be solved right now. And it will solve itself eventually. We should be working into making people comfortable, but if people think their current situation isn’t good enough to have children, just shut the fuck up and let them be.

they have a stronger middle class than we do
They official numbers are worse than the US:

The problem is this is an easy thing to lie about, so their official numbers are certainly complete fabrications. And they still weren’t bold enough to fabricate something that put them above the US.
- Comment on Sea Level 2 weeks ago:
Some of the first mechanical calculators were created to predict tides (~3 centuries ago), because they are a really complex thing that the popular explanations completely paper over and pretend it’s simply the water keeping pace with the Moon.

Just imagine them invariant to any 3D rotation.

I’d expect the Chinese numbers to be way more skewed than the US ones. Too bad we can’t rely on their statistics.
Either way, both numbers are for the average. The US one is for September, when it was still reliable; the Chinese one is certainly a gross overestimation, but for December, and we don’t know if it moved up or down from there yet.
