The triceps straightens you arm, so if you hit the table in frustration with the underside of your fist, it provides the power. It’s an alternative explanation, that is somewhat more reasonable, but I think it was just a strong sneeze.

There are 2 reasons for dedicated servers, matchmaking and refereeing. Both those functions can be archived by community servers, but need to exists. If you don’t have matchmaking you need to find opponents for each game by yourself.
If you have no referee, the player hosting the match can easily mod their game to have a god mode. - Comment on Turbine go brrrr 1 month ago:

That’s just resistor-diode logic with a 555 instead of a transistor. That means the timer only does buffering/inverting but not the actual computation.

The first half of my comment is the one that matters, the second half is a sleep deprived Wikipedia binge.
The units are kg rounded to the next power if 10. The numbers come from reverse engineering the article and Wikipedia. Sagittarius A* was a the first black hole I could think of. The scale was between mass of electron (like in the article) and mass of an atom (relevant to the post).
“Mass of electron cloud equivalent to black hole” what electron cloud?
An imaginary cloud of electrons similar to the one in the what-if. One that has the energy equivalent of the mass of a black hole. Due to the reduced charge density there would be less energy and therefore black holes, but I am convinced that a lot of objects would collapse.

In the example in from that what if, they are putting a universe’s worth of mass in the volume of the moon, so it would create a super massive singularity. That’s not what is happening in here.
Not quite, xkcd put a moons worth (by mass) of electrons together, so if we add an electron to each atom we go down four to five orders of magnitude.
The black hole came about, because the electric charge creates a electric field in which the electrons have a potential energy that by E=mc^2 is equal to the mass of the universe. If we apply our scaling factor we still end up with black holes everywhere.Lets play with those numbers:
Scale factor between Sagittarius A* and the observable universe 10^37 / 10^53 = 10^-16
Mass of Moon 10^23
Mass of electron cloud equivalent to black hole 10^23 * 10^-16 = 10^13
mass of electron added object equivalent to black hole 10^13 * 10^5 = 10^18
That means adding an electron to each atom is enough to rival the black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Even if I miscalculated by many orders of magnitude, at least each planet collapses into one. - Comment on No More Neutral ⚛ 2 months ago:

Not quite the the same scale, but a similar idea is explored by Randall Moore. He explores a lot of weird questions like this and regularly consults scientists. - Comment on No More Neutral ⚛ 2 months ago:

this has nothing to do with cancer.
Not directly, but this is furthering the state of the art in organelles, a tool that allows scientists to experiment on the exact tissue they are interested in, not just a animal substitute. That’s why it’s foundational research, as opposed to applying those findings to research a intervention for a specific cancer.
Do you not question why Epstein was funneling billions of dollars into various scientific organizations intent on researching neuroscience?
I don’t give a fuck if the pedo had delusions about neuroscience creating deaging, mindcontroll or whatever you are implying here.
Or maybe you are already one of the golems.
Now your just chucking out antisemitic dog whistles. And by that I mean actually antisemitism, not antizionism, so fuck of!

Did you pay tariffs directly? No.
A company payed them and passed the cost to you, so the company will get the refund and keep it.Also, don’t even think that prices are going back to pre tarif levels.

That’s not my main point as I don’t think the heat capacity of food is so important over the long term.
I mean, that the inevitable inefficiency of the fridge in a closed system, is no different, that any other device consuming the same amount of energy, as it all ends as waste heat.
