Tiggum posted:The first time I ever lived without a microwave I made the amazing discovery that they're not even that good for reheating stuff. Especially not the way most people do it: 2 minutes on high so you get really hot bits and bits that are still cold. If you use the lower power settings and a longer time you get better results, but still not as good as if you'd used a stove or oven - and then it's not even any quicker. Do they make microwaves out of easy bake ovens in Australia? 2 minutes in any microwave I have access to would literally destroy my food with heat. I microwaved a single burger in a container for 45 seconds and it was so goddamn hot it had to sit for a bit before I could even eat it. I haven't encountered the uneven heating problem since I was a teenager in the 90s.

It's also true that microwaves come in different wattages, and countries supply different voltages. Fun nerdery: you can use the hot-spot standing-wave characteristic of microwave heating to calculate the speed of light using a microwave and a bar of chocolate

Have the rights to the Titanic sub disaster site (and story) been sold yet? I hope the owners tee up the guy who did Force Majeure and Triangle of Sadness for the film adaption.

So, from this simple experiment, and some easy math, you can work out the speed of light! huh cool

I should probably be more glad about a bunch of rich assholes being compressed into marbles by a force more powerful than their hubris, but my mind just goes back to the thousands upon thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people left to die in the Meditteranean to keep them out of fortress Europe.

It's not. Stop assigning to political incompetence what you should assign to political malice instead. The EU is part of an imperial project that ruined the places these people come from, grew wealthy on the plunder, present and historical, and which counts on despair of people taking on enormous risk to reach better material conditions for life. Every child that drowns pays out significant dividends to those hiring the terrified mothers who barely got their own children across and would do anything to avoid having to make that trip again.

God I love capitalism. I can literally make money off of killing babies, in the name of freedom. What a great system.

Arsenic Lupin posted:Things I use my microwave for: It's convenient-ish for leftovers in general but still kind of the lazy and lesser option for most stuff. However, when I have a big ol hunk of leftover pulled pork or brisket or such a short time on small portions (to put in a bun afterwards) is simply better than any other method I've tried reheating them with. I guess the key here is not trying to cook something but simply warm it back up.
