9/11 was too much for Marvel supervillains apparently, they regularly try to destroy the universe or whatever but these towers brought them to tears. This is from when Spiderman sees 9/11 happen:

"As such, it seems that the highest possible known temperature is 142 nonillion kelvins (1032 K.). This is the highest temperature that we know of according to the standard model of particle physics, which is the physics that underlies and governs our universe. Beyond this, physics starts to breakdown."

sebzilla posted:Gas Mark Zero has been theorized by our nation's foremost oven experts. It's a temperature below so-called "Absolute Zero" at which matter moves so slowly it starts going backwards in both space and time. Whatever Dark Energy is, it's not stable, it's accelerating the expansion of the universe, and some physicists theorise that it may reverse one day, leading to a Big Crunch. That would be Gas Mark Zero.

Bobby Deluxe posted:It's really interesting reading the clarifications, thanks all. I quite often find things like this where I feel like I've been dumb and wrong, and then when I talk to people who are good at it, I find out I'm just thinking about it in a really complicated way that most people don't need to but would make sense at a graduate level. Thinking of how the CPU is actually addressing memory and how the code is actually generating and iterating through those 1000 numbers is probably more complicated than "1-1000 should be 1-1000".

Also even if a shark kills you, there's not a good chance of it carrying you to your destination and dropping your headless corpse off at the family gathering or whatever. (Like that Navy Seal who was watching Toy Story 2 when a truck trailer neatly took the top half of his car and body off, but without hindering the car itself)

It's really gonna suck over the next few years as Teslas become more common, all these middle class pricks with their massive carbon footprints will be guffawing about how much more green they are than us, with their 80k shitboxes that used more resources in it's production than I have even used in my whole life. But the good news is, there are only 1.4 billion cars on the planet, so by building 1.4 billion electric cars, and throwing all the ICE ones away without selling/passing them on, we can build up a massive carbon deficit that may get paid off in a really long time, if the infrastructure surrounding the cars doesn't go tits up due to societal collapse.

I'm not good at theory and try not to talk about it, but I've been thinking lately that if a Marxist "contradiction" is an "opposition of social forces", we're seeing such a contradiction between people who see climate change as something abstract that may happen in the future, and people who see climate change already happening in the concrete past. Sorry if that's dumb. This is the UK Marxist Thread though.

I always imagined James Bond gets paid in an untraceable expense account that he uses to pay for travel, hotels, martinis, guns, and suits. He doesn't seem to have a life other than the "mission". e: oh yeah snipe/tax:

keep punching joe posted:Imagine being the sort of psycho who joins the army to get to shoot muslims and instead you just have to do a regular delivery job. I always imagined a lot of the more braggy veterans spent their time in the army unloading planes or peeling potatoes, there are 10 of those support soldiers for every actual combat soldier, so it's odd how all of them claim to have been paras.
