Tostinos pizzas used to be the perfect size and tasted good.
They shrank them. Then made them square. Then shrank them again.

Negative. They were very against the law. A guy backed over and killed his own child and made it a multi year mission to force back up cameras as a requirement. Politicians look bad if they don’t want to “save the children.”

Oh; it will kill the fuck out of you. It’s mainly emits alpha particles, but also beta and gamma.
Also, thanks to your typo, I’m thinking of investing in radiation.

Fun fact: there’s enough calories in a single gram of plutonium to sustain a person for 10,000,000 years.
- Comment on Feynman rules 2 weeks ago:
FYI; electrons are always negatively charged and protons always positively charged. So electrons, for instance, will always want to repel each other.
But your conclusion is a more direct answer to the silly conclusion I gave. Which boils down to, “we don’t really know”.
- Comment on Feynman rules 2 weeks ago:
Pretty much. You get towards the bottom and on a fundamental level, there are some things that science just doesn’t know. We really don’t know how magnets work, when you get down to it.
- Comment on Feynman rules 3 weeks ago:
To drop my reply from a similar post:
To be fair: "A magnet works because negatively charged electrons repel each other. "
"Why do negatively charged electrons repel each other? "
“… Well … Ok, so hear me out. You’re going to need to understand quantum mechanics and then the fermion principal. Then you’ll know that the electrons aren’t allowed to occupy the same space, and the easiest way to avoid being in the same space is to not touch each other. The electrons know they aren’t allowed to touch because they’ve studied fermions.”

Nothing. That isn’t soldered. It’s mig welded. Also, the welds wouldn’t look like that if it were actually done right there on the wood. It’s AI\photoshop, or they made the welds elsewhere and then put it up against the wood and torched the area to burn it.
- Comment on My friend got hacked and of course microsoft will not even try to help 4 weeks ago:
I’m in my 40’s and have always been a tech nerd. I have no personal information or pictures I don’t want to get out saved in the cloud. All of my things are only locally saved and backed up. I also keep multiple emails with different passwords and names. My Microsoft account I do have is verified for changes through a non Microsoft email address.
It would be a pain in the ass to screw with me in any major capacity. Quite frankly, I’m still surprised that the masses just accept cloud saving all their pictures and documents, just trusting Amazon or Google or Apple or Microsoft to not have security issues, especially when they’ve had so many security issues.

- Comment on Here we go again... 1 month ago:
I’m actually watching the original buffy right now for the first time, even though I was a highschool kid when it originally aired.
Go watch that. It holds up very well. I’m about to start season 6 (of 7) right now. Only thing that dates it really, is that no one has cell phones. They were common to have in the mid 90’s to early 2000’s when the show aired, but tons of movies and TV shows around then chose to mostly ignore their existence because they blocked off or simplified so many plot points and story lines. It’s strange to think that no one beyond my generation will know what it was like to not have cell phones and the internet.
- Comment on Here we go again... 1 month ago:
After hearing about the reboot like 6 months ago I got to thinking about how I never really watched the original back when I was a teen. I’m about to start season 6 now and it’s been a very binge watchable show so far. Still holds up nicely.
Maybe in another 25 years I’ll get around to watching the reboot.

Anyone been playing it on steam deck? How’s the fps? Is the text very hard to read?
- Comment on mobile gaming 1 month ago:
It’s pretty nice that a game of it isn’t neverending and doesn’t take all too long since defeating it is only 15 rounds, but it does take a lot of reading descriptions of all the different symbols and really thinking about how they’ll work with what you have at the time so you have to give it more mental focus than your typical candy crush type of game. Steeper learning curve and more mentally stimulating, which could either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on what you like.

Dragonball super has pretty great dubs. So does cowboy bebop. NGE also is pretty good. FMA Brotherhood also does a great job. So is My Hero Academia.
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 2 months ago:
Now factor in the cost savings from a lower server load and less staff to run the back end, and possibly the smaller licensing\use costs for the games available to play since less people would be accessing those games.

- Comment on New EA Owners Hoping AI Will Cut Costs And Boost Profits, It's Claimed 2 months ago:
This going to be a total venture capitalist play. It was already set the the fifty billion dollar acquisition was also going to be placing EA in like twenty billion in debts. They’ll flood it with more debts, piece the IP’s all out, legal launder the money, and take ea into bankruptcy.
EA is dead.
