Adolf ****** was a Vegeterian

This has been... Your fact of the day.

Wait...you can't write Adolph ****** on here?

but you can write Stalin, Mussolini, Pol Pot, Joseph Kony, Mao, Kim Jong Un, Kim Jong IL, Kim il Sung, Kaiser Willhelm, Castro, Trujillo, and Pinochet?

I will take that as a direct CCP endorsement of the above dictators / ethnic cleansers. This, in fact, does explain a few things. lol

Humans have a third eyelid. It is that little pink triangle in the corner of your eyes, the corners near your noes. It is a remnant of a working eyelid. At one point it may have slid out sideways. It no longer serves a function.

modern gun will fire in space. This is due to modern primers being air sealed, as well as containing an oxidizer, which gives the explosion in the primer enough fuel to get to the gun powder and shoot the bullet. A musket would most likely not work due to the absence of an oxidizer, though theoretically possible, the concept would work better on paper then in practice. Though to reiterate; modern gun will have no problem functioning in a vacuum such as space.

This has been... Your fact of the day.

so the minnmatar ships COULD work

My main doubt doesn't have to do with firing- it's that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. With the lack of friction in space, an autocannon could propel a ship backwards.

You can't lick your elbow, nor the back of your knee.

well i'll be damned


(damn those cats, bunch of show offs)

you scare me

gooooood, very good


also can't touch you ear with your elbow

Your brain uses the same amount of electricity as a ten watt lightbulb.

This has been... Your fact of the day.

they have engines........

You can't lick your elbow, nor the back of your knee.

I can lick my elbow (shoulder sortof pops). Haven't tried my knee.

They would still slow down- and the engines would have to be able to make up for every direction the turrets fire in.

Its not really amazingly hard to lick either the back of your knee or your elbow...

-Licks elbow- Tastes like bacon. :D

none of you atoms are actually connected. If they ever touched, you would explode.

careful, may eat your elbow

okay

fact of the day from the future (Japan time):

glass gradually degrades when in contact with air, the speed at which this happens (which is pretty slow regardless) depends on the formula used in the batch. Lots of older glasswork suffers from pretty dramatic degradation, and in museums sometimes you can notice a fine white dust on the base of the display. This can be observed even in modern glass batches (which are more consistent and more resilient generally), especially when the glass is first removed from the annealer, or if it breaks. When it's first removed from the annealer, it will make a squeaky noise when rubbed against another piece of glass, this is because the surface is still rough (although not observably so), it will stop making the noise shortly. Freshly broken glass has a microscopically sharp edge, which quickly degrades, becomes ever so slightly blunt.

Glass would still be considered a solid at that temperature, although you are sort of right, it's amorphous, meaning it lacks the strong structure of crystalline solid and such. So theoretically given thousands of years (maybe more), you would be able to observe such a change. It would be dependent on the structure of the glass, and the ambient temperature/amount of heat it absorbs on average. Amorphous solids all have a deformation temperature (forget the proper name), as well as a melting point. For glass, this is around 900 F, so not reachable in daily circumstances, so it probably wouldn't deform from heat (also, fire = shattered windows, not melted). But if the bonds between the molecules aren't ideal (angle, etc.) it would be possible for them to shift. It's definitely over-exaggerated though, so I'd say no, it is definitely not a liquid, and no, you can't just find an antique window and have it be thicker at the bottom. Although theoretically the molecules could end up shifting around some, it would take far too long to be measured by our eyes.


coincidentally, our annealers start at around 900 degrees F (plateau there for a little bit), and slowly bring the glass down to room temperature. and not in a strictly linear pattern. they stop at certain temperature plateaus to allow the stress to seep out of the glass so it is stronger when removed from the annealer. I think one of the peaks is around 400 F but I forget the rest.

Yea, I'm a student, I mainly do casting and furnace work. and no offense, but if you have, it's probably from the manufacturing process (it's very possible that older techniques could produce uneven float-glass, or that it wasn't cut or cold worked perfectly), seriously, look into amorphous solids & glass transition (the term for when an amorphous solid transitions into a slightly viscous phase). The idea doesn't mesh with the observed characteristics of the material. Any silica or soda-lime based glass won't deform significantly until it gets close to 1000 F. The only possible exception would be if the bonds were not at ideal angles, there's a relatively small range, if the bond isn't somewhere around a 140 degree angle, it very well could deform slightly. But that's a process that would take much much longer than heat deformation.

here's a good explanation of the myth, with citations from academic papers on the characteristics of glass, in case you're still not sure

yea, glass is fun, it does weird things. this is one of my favorite weird things it does.

I love klein bottles, so much. here's a slightly more practical one

da ****? how did we get to "glass" of all things?

The acids that are contained in your stomach, are strong enough to breakdown a stainless steel razor blade.

This has been... Your fact of the day.

Wrong, I tried swallowing a razor blade and I died

I never said you would survive if you ate a razor blade. I said that stomach acids will dissolve it. The stomach will actually dissolve many metals, though, maybe not in time to save you.

Well yeah, it is hydrochloric acid I believe.

Correct +1 for your troubles

That's the fact of the day brought to you by 5eak!

Do not swallow razor blades

You had nothing to do with it! lol

What is OP

The first machine gun, the Puckle gun, could use two types of ammunition. For use against fellow followers of INRI, round ball ammunition was used. Though, for use against the Muslim Turks, square bullets were used. Eventually, square bullets were no longer used because of their unpredictable flight pattern.

i actually knew that one

The fact of the day is I'm a noob

You can only discuss topics I have posted...

To be fair, it was mostly just to inform people of facts on a day to day basis. Not even meant to discuss the facts. Though, people did, so I was like "fine". Though, I am against others posting because then it becomes another "random, derailed thread" That's what the Females only thread & last one to post wins, threads are for.

lol, too bad, i'm back and de-railing threads wherever i can

I'll de-rail you

that sounds sexual

you know what I mean

no i don't

you lie

The style of "Saggin' yo' pants", originated from Prison. Where prisoners were not allowed to use belts (due to it being used as a weapon or suicide device). Many let their pants sag lower to indicate they were "dandy ;)".

more myth than fact

More fact, since the style wad first observed among dandy ;) prisoners, after the no belts policy, was more strictly enforced.

The Vatican, is the the only country that is allowed the use of Mercenaries. They employ the Swiss Guard, ex-Spec Ops, who as their name implies, are only natives of Switzerland. Although, they are used more as private contractors rather than mercenaries, they are still referred to as this.

This has been... Your fact of the day.

fancy word the west uses for mercenaries so that idiots in their society don't realize the pay people to slaughter innocents in other countries

Although legally private contractors can only be employed to secure an already established sector(like security guards), this is rarely enforced.

lol, of course it's not enforced, then who would fix all the problems the "good countries" can't technically touch

In WWII, the Soviet Union had one rifle for every ten soldiers. When a soldier was killed, the man behind him would pick up his rifle and use it, they guy behind him would pick it up after he fell and so on...

This has been... Your fact of the day.

They did the same thing for ammo... lines where it alternated beween one guy got ammo and one got a rifle. Then they still sent you at machine gun nests with nothing but the clip.
