Yeah, which is why the “if minimum wage increases, so will prices” aregument is BS. They were going to charge the highest price they thought they could either way, the difference is that they are forced to increase the amount that goes to the people they are trying to pay the least.
It’s because so much of corporate security is based on whether a user trusts a piece of code in an environment where they’ve gotten used to trusting new pieces of code. At my job, so many things ask for the one password that protects my full account that I wouldn’t be surprised if someone sneaks in something that both legitimately uses it to log in to something but also saves the user/pass combo and it would likely succeed completely at getting a bunch of credentials.
There’s also tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, cucumbers, peas, beans, squash, eggplant, spinach, onions, garlic, corn, and many varieties of these. Not saying you should grow all these, just adding more to the list (though hot peppers might be good bang for the buck).
I pretty much boycotted subway over this but ate there a lot before Quiznos and would always get my sub toasted. They might have upgraded the ovens/toasters, though.
I think they are faster, like they used to have enough time to build a friend’s sub while the first sub was toasting but now they don’t.
Kinda sexist. I know it’s a joke and you’re just trying to get a rise out of them, but why not try to get a (bigger) rise out of the men in the family, too?
You could also confuse the hell out of the dogs in the family for a few seconds.
It’s more of a relationship that is partially adversarial and partially cooperative.
Unlike single payer public option where the incentive is to both save money and maximize healthcare available, so it seeks a balance between keeping costs low enough to be affordable (at a societal level) while paying enough that doctors want to provide the services.
Just the other day there was a comment about a horse going crazy to the point of death because a paper lantern landed in its pasture. While the thread overall did convince me that releasing them is an asshole thing to do (another comment mentioned one burnt down a hay barn near them and it clicked just how stupid it is to just fly a candle surrounded in paper out to land where it will), it didn’t do horse intelligence reputation any favours.
Baby Jesus cries about everything, to the point that only adult Jesus can take care of him.
Yeah, I read them as a teen and really liked them, so read them (well, the Belgariad, at least, then kinda stalled on the next series) to my daughter more recently and didn’t find them quite as enjoyable. They were still fun but full of a bunch of questionable shit. I’d say it was very boomeresque with a lot of its humour. Also the weird recurring “oh drat, you have out-negotiated me again, Silk!”
They have developed technology that allows data centres to track people even more effectively than covid vaccines.
I have a feeling he would be very opposed to losing privacy on all of his sources of income and/or gifts.
Yes, the barbarians famous in part for their architecture.
Bigotry and tribalism are unintentionally pretty funny sometimes, or would be if they didn’t act as an excuse (in the minds of violent bigots) for violence against people that likely had nothing to do with whatever sparked the anger in the first place.
Which makes me wonder now if that is an intended layer to the joke in the comic, first layer being agreeing with the dad that the kid is useless (boomer humour vibes there), second layer is that the dad is an idiot because none of those things are relevant to each other and he’s basically just complaining that she has “bad” interests while doing poorly in a class.
There’s peltier devices, too, which use heat traveling via different metals and maybe some sort of sorcery to generate a voltage.
Also teslacoils use a different mechanism (friction I believe), though that’s a static voltage.
In theory, you could translate a magnet through a coil instead of just rotating it to produce a current. Lol spinning a ring magnet through a rounded coil could be a different way of using spinning magnets (assuming it isn’t already done).
Not sure why you got downvoted. D&D is a medieval fantasy; I’m not familiar with any campaign set in our world let alone a historically accurate version of our world. And the goth movement of today is an aesthetic that I’m not sure even has a direct link to the Goths that challenged Rome, just like someone going around destroying shit wouldn’t have a direct link to the Vandals or maybe even know that the crime is named after the people who sacked Rome.
Fair enough, I thought we were talking about the heat lol.
Thought your request to back it up was in response to the parent comment saying that condensing the water defeats the purpose rather than the first paragraph.
The laws of thermodynamics? Can’t create or destroy energy and overall entropy increases over time. A closed loop (or any cooling system) just moves heat away from the hot thing. So yes, they can be used as much as any other cooling system but it won’t stop the issue of “generating lots of heat”. That heat still needs to go somewhere. Dumping it into the atmosphere might be the best option if there’s nothing in the area that needs heat. Should probably build them next to steel plants or something like that. Then a closed loop would be better.
Someone should have stuck one of those shot pouring nozzles in there, would have been pretty funny.
It was incredible back in its day, but that was over 20 years ago.
It came out closer to the release of the NES than today.
Oh I knew about the stuff explained in the first comment but not about the followup stuff. Please continue.
