I'm having a hard time understanding why people are bagging on the dude who's being chill and talking about his beliefs. It's not like he's trying to convert you or something, and he's pretty clearly stated that if you want to know more, you should check out the thread that's explicitly for talking about this stuff. I mean, I get it that a lot of people don't like religion, especially Christianity these days, but why would you even ask someone about their beliefs if all you're going to do is try to poke holes in it. IDGI. Oh, and rock on, Azathoth. Elder God solidarity.

SubNat posted:The very rapid freezing from liquid nitrogen makes it so that the water-ice crystals form as multiple smaller crystals, instead of larger ones that rip the cells apart as they freeze. And starting the process before you die means there's a good chance that the process itself would kill you. Which is problematic, legally.

AlbieQuirky posted:There is a great memoir by someone who worked at Alcor in the early days that suggests their quality control is not all that clients might hope for. I get the feeling that these places are just above the "Rapture Pet Insurance" companies. They only hire atheists, and you pay them to take care of your pets once the Rapture whisks you away. Seems like the perfect scam. e: the rapture insurance companies only hire atheists. I have no idea about the hiring policies of the frozen head companies.

ThisIsJohnWayne posted:Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. Yep. I just (like literally 5 minutes ago) got in a heated "discussion" with a Boomer here at work who was spouting off about how if someone tries to steal your purse, it should be legal to just pull out a gun and execute them. Was trying hard to stay out of it, but then he turned to me and was like "Am I right?" and wouldn't stop boomering about it until I told him how I really feel.

3D Megadoodoo posted:I really hope this will lead to "dumb" televisions coming back. Dumb TVs are never coming back. They subsidize the cost of the components by selling the data they gather from spying on you. CEO of Visio openly acknowledged this when asked about it.

christmas boots posted:Also don’t you walk over something wet first so your feet are wet? Maybe? The Leidenfrost effect will let you dip a wet hand (very briefly) into molten lead without injury, but the time and heat scales are very different from walking on coals. If you're counting on ash as insulation, I'd think you'd want dry feet. edit: Wikipedia posted:Wet feet can cause embers to cling to them, increasing the exposure time.

ultrafilter posted:You can walk over hot coals without burning yourself as long as your feet are wet due to the Leidenfrost effect but you really have to do it just right. If not, it goes exactly like you see here. According to this article https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cocktail-party-physics/come-firewalk-with-me-the-physics-of-hot-coals/ Scientific American posted:It's critical that the coals be allowed to burn down sufficiently so that they are at a relatively comfy 538 degrees Celsius or so (1000 degrees Fahrenheit), preferably with a thin layer of ash over them providing a bit of extra insulation.

Antivehicular posted:Diluting olive oil and selling it as a better quality than it is seems like a crime that would have started about ten minutes after people started selling olive oil There’s an Ea-Nasir of olive oil out there somewhere, waiting to be discovered.
