Crazy how you managed to photoshop the decimal point to the left by so many digits!

(I know, it’s only a partial payment)

No, it’s $31.07. You likely combined the 92 cents and 18 cents to a dollar instead of a dollar and 10 cents.

3 days worth of food? Maybe 3 meals for a child, not 3 days.

By utilizing the Choose 2 combo, the total cost (assuming same delivery cost and adjusted tax) would be about $25 dollars including a 20% tip (based on total and not subtotal, as in the picture). However, that would include a medium pizza instead of a small pizza.

It’s not a massive difference. It is definitely a meaningful difference, but it’s still pretty costly for 2 meals worth of food.

Lol… I have never heard of this before. I think it would help halfway, but it won’t induce much stirring inside of the can, which is more important than just throwing more cold molecules of water at it.

The main reason spinning a can works is because it induces convection inside and outside of the can, which contributes to more collisions and better distributions of collisions. If the warmest soda is in the middle of the can, the cold molecules near the can walls will reach a temperature similar to the ice bath and thud the rate at which heat is transferred becomes stunted.

For lettuce, you’d have better luck finding a way to pass cold water between the leaves, much like having fins on a heatsink (surface area).

Sorry, saturation is not the right word to describe it. I was thinking of the ice/water analogy and I mistakenly applied it to my heatsink analogy.

The correct limit to the heatsink analogy would a function of the thermal dissipation of the heatsink (material, surface area, thermal resistance) and the qualities of the surrounding fluid (ambient temp, flow, etc). Honestly, my comparison between the ice/water example and heatsinks is not good. It is only appropriate in reference to the “molecular collisions” concept I mentioned before.

By spinning the can in ice water, it increases the rate of transfer of heat energy from the drink in the can, to the can itself, to the ice water. It’s like how stirring the ice in a cup of not-cold water will melt the ice / cool the water faster.

At a molecular level, you would see an increase in the number of collisions between ice molecules and liquid molecules. The collisions must occur for heat transfer to happen, so more collisions = more cooling. It is also the same reason why a heatsink can draw more heat from a processor when a fan blows air over it (until the air is saturated with heat).

I think as the game progresses, you get to see why Astarion is so eager to act in his own interests. However, his backstory really only justifies half of his refusal to help people. The other half of his whining feels antithetical to his own situation, but perhaps that’s just because he doesn’t fully acknowledge his newfound freedoms until Act 2.

I feel you on the gift part. I’m quite picky about shitty products. That being said, I don’t complain when I receive a gift I don’t necessarily like, I just grumble when I use said gift in private.

The people who spend too much researching before purchasing all know the feeling of endlessly finding products that intrigue them, only to find a handful of glaring flaws.

I am frequently disappointed.

What does the GT stand for? I’m unfamiliar with the acronym, as it seems schools across the nation use different terms to describe the same thing.

Then, construct your comment in a way that conveys such information without automatically ostracizing them from ever having sympathy for your cause. You’re never going to build curiosity in those unaware of your cause if you begin by chasing them away.

Don’t you feel it’s a bit counterintuitive to call someone tonedeaf for being unaware of “International Day of Solidarity with Long Term Anarchist Prisoners”, something that more than 99.9999% of people are likely unaware of?

Wouldn’t you be better off, say, helping build awareness of such a day instead of simply berating someone for not knowing about it? At the moment, you’re teaching people to treat it like a joke.

ALL of the ching chong jokes, lots of dog-eating comments, being told I wasn’t welcome in white gf’s family, etc. I feel that.

Been called a ch*nk multiple times by random people in public, been told as a child that I should be performing better in school because of the “type of person” that I am, been called a dog-eater by peers, asked “what’s your real name” (even though my government name is an English one), etc.

One time someone called me a ch*nk, I explained that despite them being shitty for thinking that’s okay, that I’m not even Chinese, so they must be extra braindead. I also said that it must be disappointing to know less of the English language than a non-white person, and that if a white person like them can’t learn proper English, then they’re failing their own expectations of what it means to be American. I suppose hearing me say that in perfect American English was enough for them to realize how dumb they were being. Everyone in the room glared at them and they shut the fuck up and left lmao.

I love it when Apple pushes advertising that touts their focus on privacy… when in reality, they’re breaching user privacy in all the ways that every other company does.

Today I learned that Markdown in Eternity can handle

Not at all! I had fun typing out the comment while considering the implications of your comment! :P

Thanks for the good time.

Good to know. Been learning some LaTeX from a friend recently, so I’ll have to try this out.
