It really isn’t. Part and parcel of the fascist playbook is to keep citizens uninformed and to discredit academia, especially soft sciences cuz they tend to disagree with fascism.

As a vixen I’d prefer a small rodent, but men are universally clueless it seems.

That honestly took me over 6 months. I tried a number of names on for size, but none felt quite right. The ones that felt right were in use by close family or friends. The one I really wanted is used by both my ex-wifes, so that would’ve been weird for the kids even if they’re not kids anymore.

It was much easier picking out names for the kids actually. Otherwise I followed the advice I got to take a name that is sorta common in my age group so I went through all the lists multiple times until I decided. I now officially have a girl’s name, even if I’m nowhere near passing. It isn’t as bad in my country as in many others and I must say it went a lot better than I expected, but I’m still proud of myself. 😊

I guarantee that sign is there because of a previous incident.

Temple OS is an impressive feat for a lone dev, no argument there, but it is hardly an amazing piece of tech because of it. It is a barely functioning skeleton OS that looks like it was made in the eighties. There’s only the barest minimum of token apps available and there’s a breaking lack of basic features. The main selling point is of course the bible-related crap but that hardly makes it “amazing tech” or even unique.

This makes me suspect that what you are actually defending is christianity and you take affront to the use of a christian symbol to exemplify mental illness. Sure, the dev had issues, but how many people knows this? Luckily you are here to point out that it is the dev that was mad, his christian OS is a fine thing actually and has nothing at all to do with madness. Please use Ubuntu Satanic edition to convey madness in future memes.

TempleOS, huh? Better give it a try then.

You are a horrible person and I love you.

You say four years. I hope you are right.

This shit ain’t nothing to me, man.

You are correct. If I gave the impression that it is a safe endeavour, I am sorry. It is safe IF done correctly, but it can get explodey if you fuck up bad enough.

Do your research, keep it small scale and don’t sell.

I you make your own, there is no risk for blindness. Blindness comes from methanol, not ethanol. If you use a yeast based process to produce the alcohol and then distill it, there is no way to accidentally produce methanol in that process. The cases where people get blind or die from moonshine stems from when the feds replaced moonshine with methanol to be able to make that claim and disrupt the business of organized crime during the prohibition. There are still cases now and then where people try to make drinkable alcohol from some industrial base and don’t know how to.

TLDR: Don’t buy, make.

I wonder what that would taste like on a cold day…

I guess the effectiveness and line of sight also depends on which way the door opens, standards on this differ wildly between countries. If the grenade explodes as soon as it exits the can, and the can is more than a grenade-length away from the door, much of the direct detonation shockwave and shrapnel would be blocked by the wall being between the explosion and the pranked person, especially if the door has to be pulled open. If the door is pushed open, chances are that at least the opening hand and arm is exposed.

It also depends on the material and thickness of the wall, of course. I have personally been about three feet from a hand grenade going off, with no I’ll effects other than some dirt falling on me. There was of course a bit of reinforced concrete between me and said grenade. It was also outdoors which obviously makes a huge difference on experienced pressure.

Hitler, for example, survived a pretty big indoors explosion just a few yards away, only because he was mostly shielded by a table. Some windows may have been open which affects lethality more than one might assume. Didn’t Mythbusters test exactly this?

It is also quite possible I’ve given this a lot more thought than I should’ve. When you know a lot about a subject, you want it to be correct. This is not such a subject.

Intresting. With a no delay fuse, you’d have to have the can as close to the opening as possible, otherwise it’ll go off without direct line of sight to the victim pranked and they might survive not fully appreciate the joke.

I’d still eat it.

Ya, and he missed the opportunity to go with analog instead of non binary. I might be a bit analog myself, and the dial goes to eleven, baby! I mean, not really, but we’re discussing jokes after all. Dial goes to seven or eight, tops.

Precisely. A forking truck.

You are all wrong of course. This is a truck.
