Ahhh checking to see if it’s hot enough for the leidenfrost effect is very different that what I was imagining cooking with it would be.

The reason the droplet dances around and doesn’t immediately evaporate is because the layer of steam separates (insulates) the droplet from the pan. The effect can also be used to protect a wetted hand from molten lead.

A hot pan will still cook things, but a hot pan with thin layer of oil will cook most things even faster. That’s why grilled cheeses cook much better with fat than dry.

You can’t cook with the Leidenfrost effect though… no heat will conduct into the food!

The point of oils or melted fat when cooking is partially to increase the conduction of heat into the food.

There is no acceptable amount of civilian murders. The Fascists know this, and so they want an excuse to justify it. Bringing guns to protests gives them an excuse. It also makes the armed protestors the first targets of the thug forces, and triggers the cops’ shitty ingrained fear of everyone trying to kill them—that the fucking “training” they get—fills them with.

They aren’t going to kill many unarmed protesters, especially initially. There’s a reason they stopped at 4 during the Kent state fiasco.

Most of us will be fine and able to go home and plan for guerrilla tactics that have a better chance of survival later.

Edit: decided to emphasize my point even though only one person apparently missed it.

Only short term, long term the repeated rocket launches can’t win out over a ditch digger.

It’s not enough, but I would bet it might have a cooling effect as it reflects more light in the upper atmosphere.

But we should really still make sure, and more importantly not trust Elon with any data flowing over those satellites.

So using this for frozen foods, or takeaway containers isn’t advised. Those are basically all sodium.

How many of them aren’t trust fund kiddies? Their parents likely have the fuck you money to run, if not compounds and private security to hide behind.

That’s not what happened. It’s good old human getting lazy and pandemic delays that allowed them past the Darien Gap. Followed by good old human smuggling cattle north into Mexico that made them move so fast.

I was actually surprised they were using it, because it keeps a record of communication (which the government officials are required to keep).

So it was a weird mix of irresponsible and responsible behavior.

A wild Dr. Nick appeared. And got down voted.

And the fake Gucci belt was bought with Klarna

Micheal Jackson had all those things and still OD’d on tranquilizers.

Drugs can be a helluva drug. Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.

Plug them into the grid and use the damn storage.

Or take the batteries and do it more efficiently.

Fuck those stupid cars.

Being convincing and confident without actually knowing is how 9/10s of them make it to the C suite.

That’s probably why they don’t worry about confidently incorrect AI.
