i want devices that are functional and hardy and i want them to last and fuck the rest of the shit i dont need. my ds and 3ds can lie in sleep mode for months if not years and i can pop them open and they've still got two or three bars left. my old phones in high school could go days without a charge. if i leave my nintendo switch on the floor for a few days doing absolutely fuck all nothing i will turn it on and it will cry to me mother i am dying. i am dying mother. and i tell him he'll never be half the man his brother was and he can't hear me because he's dead

[kogasu21]

Some things I would tolerate like when actively playing, the DS lasting 6hrs on one charge while the switch might last an hour because it is doing so much more processing. But screen off should be “go to absolute minimum stuff running so I can pick back up later.

i just saw a post on reddit titled "the writer is cooking but the food doesn't agree with me" and it was about OP clicking off a fic because they don't like the direction it's going in. slightly different context but can we all be more like this reddit OP. i think "the writer is cooking but the food doesn't agree with me" should be the new "don't like don't read." dead doves may give you diarrhea but don't make that everyone else's problem.

this is a great way to frame it lol like just bc i'm lactose intolerant doesn't mean i should leave a bad review on the ice cream parlor

[kogasu21]

I completely agree with the point but I have to laugh a little cause I originally thought it was more of a "I don't like what I'm writing" type of thing

dragon absolutely happy to marry a human princess for diplomatic reasons but she is NOT going to turn human. she can fit on that bed just fine as a big scaly quadruped

[hemipenal-system]

they tell the dragon she doesn’t need to fit in the bed because she isn’t actually obligated to fuck the princess and she’s almost more shocked at the idea that she wouldn’t have sex with her wife

the princess is conflicted about all this

[hemipenal-system]

the princess is no longer conflicted about all this

For me, censorship laws are a lot like the death penalty. There are people I wish would die, but I don't want the government to have any say over who lives or dies (because then they can stretch laws out to justify killing someone they dont like). There are stories that I think are reprehensible and should have never been written, but I don't want the government to have any say over which stories are reprehensible (because then they can stretch out what they deem wrong out to fit anything they don't like)

serious answer: I ran some quick math (below the cut) and found out that this ant would impart about ten times the amount of energy as an impact by a 45kg Howitzer round, or one thousand times the energy yield of a typical handgrenade. Ordinarily I would expect something like an ant to disintegrate on impact at high speeds, but there is simply so much energy in that ant that it would have nowhere else to go but forward - even if it completely exploded on impact without penetrating, you would definitely die and definitely need a closed-casket funeral. If it simply went straight through without meaningful disintegration, carrying the majority of its energy away with it, with this being a hypersonic projectile (actually, it's a relativistic one) it still would definitely shred at least a grapefruit-sized hole in you just from cavitation damage. Given the ridiculous speed, it would also create a significant amount of heat and a concussive sonic shockwave as it did so, definitely killing you instantly and probably turning you into charred ground beef.

TLDR yes you would be super mega dead

first let's use a more sensible unit than mph. 100000000mph is 44,704,000m/s. that's more significant figures than we need but I'll leave that to the end. for reference, c is exactly 299,792,458m/s meaning our unlucky ant is traveling at about 15% of the speed of light.

next let's find the mass of an ant. googling it, it looks like 1-5mg is an oft-cited figure, so let's say it's a little sugar ant that only weighs 1mg (because that's an easy number for math, and because I want to know the best-case scenario in case this is somehow survivable). that's 0.001g or 0.000001kg (important for next step.)

to find how much energy the ant will impart, we use the formula E(k) = 1/2 * mv², which results in a value of very nearly one gigajoule (1GJ ≈ 999MJ), which is neat because we started with one significant figure and now we're ending with one too.

oh but the ant so small I can take it

[transcyberism]

that's true I didn't think of that

Not going to lie, but the vibe of this post reminds me of the YouTube video I saw where the guy calculated how many human eggs you would need to make a 3 egg omelette. I believe the same person answered what would happen if you forced Niagara Falls through a straw. I like those types of posts.

I am curious about something. Would I be able to start learning basic sword techniques if I used something like a huge wooden dowel? Like I know it would be lighter, but is total weight the main difference? Like is the balance close enough?
