  • Got a friend who is a bit of a alien conspiracy nut. Shortly before Moonfall he started with the hollow moon alien base theory (I was laughing tears when I saw the trailer). He said the moon is the only satellite in our solar system that doesn’t rotate and that is proof.

    You should have seen his face when I demonstrated with a phone and a bottle of beer that the moon does indeed rotate once every full orbit. It got even better when I explained that one day we will loose the moon cause it very slowly drifts away from us.



  • I don’t think they asked me to count down either the last time I was put under. But then again I was slightly preoccupied by the ice cold bucket of liquid fire that spread through my veins. Apparently that’s what a small fraction of people experience with the stuff they used. Would have been nice to get a warning tho.








  • Depends on the quality of the stove. The bad ones regulate like most resistive glass ceramic stoves in on/off pulses, which is fine for ceramic because the thermal capacity smoothes everything. I’ve got a mobile induction plate like that tho and it is absolutely horrible to work with.

    My decent quality stove top goes from just hand warm (keep warm function) to the fires of mount doom (power function for boiling water) in 17 silky smooth steps. On top of the pulses there is some power regulation as well (you can hear the coil hum change depending on power).
