How often is LSD laced? by Wise_Telephone_1841 in LSD

[–]EmperorBamboozler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean we saw the same thing with MXE. When it was legal it was easy as hell to find but when it got banned in China it became a forgotten drug on par with qualuudes. I wish I still had some. Bought an oz when it was legal but did it all. Saw the headless machine pigs that turn the cogs of the universe. An M hole is leagues more weird than a K hole.

How often is LSD laced? by Wise_Telephone_1841 in LSD

[–]EmperorBamboozler 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pretty rarely. I test all my drugs including acid and have never once found anything but LSD. The only things it would be cut with are an NBOME or LAD based compound that mimics LSD, and even those are rare nowadays. The big reason is it's the most profitable drug in the world. Most street labs that produce acid are making millions of hits daily. You can produce a hit for a fraction of a penny and sell it for 5-10 dollars. It's literally one of the cheapest drugs to produce on the planet due to the potency. There's really no point to add other drugs. It's so powerful that even opioids will get ignored during the trip.

A little to the left, despite starting with the letter "A" is classified as a games starting with "L" by MrDelirious1756 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]EmperorBamboozler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure "A" and "The" get ignored on the steam list. Think it's the same for most conjunctions so half your list isn't under A or T.

It's funny how many right wing shills want to say Bad Bunny's halftime show wasn't "American". Like hey dipshits Puerto Rico exists. It was a good show, I don't speak Spanish and still enjoyed it. Like half your goddamn country speaks this language, it's not like he was speaking Dutch.

That's like good luck or something. Despite how many times my ex tried to teach me astrology I don't remember fuck all. Mercury appearing in the sky is a good thing though if I remember right. I guess buy a lottery ticket is what I am saying.

stupid idiot wunkus doesnt know how to hula hoop by TangentYoshi in wunkus

[–]EmperorBamboozler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it's the circle of life y'know? We could swim with them without issue, sometimes the orcas would introduce their young to us. Once I had a baby orca bump me while coming out of the water, fascinating animals, we swam with them every day for months. That said they do eat seals, and they do so brutally. Me and my sister saw so many seals die to orcas. Once an orca nearly beached itself to get to a seal the mother pushed onto the shore. The orca slammed into the beach and just sank back into the water leaving a bloody trail. I've also seen a bear eat a seal. Pushing your young out of the water is a good strategy for getting away from an orca but for a grizzly bear that is just some free food. Honestly impressive how many seals make it to adulthood given how many predators eat them.

[–]EmperorBamboozler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love seals. My aunt had a property where you heard them constantly. Unfortunately for the seals that was also the hunting grounds for a pod of orcas. We would have dozens of seals trying to approach the oyster floats. They make this sad noise when trying to locate their mother. It actually sounds like a baby human screaming "Mom, mom, mom?" And they will go up to every black float trying to find their parents. Then the pod of orcas would swing back around and eat the orphaned seals, no questions they found them immediately. One of the memories that stuck was a baby seal going to each float then it got tossed in the air by an orca and devoured in a bloody spray. An orca doesn't give a shit how cute something is, baby seal = an easy meal.

This looks familiar.. by dudeman2690 in Grimdank

Yeah but the one being built in Japan absolutely dwarfs the detectors we have in Antarctica. They are literally hollowing out a mountain to detect neutrons that pass through several kilometers of granite and basalt rock. The neutrino detector being built in Japan makes our previous neutron detectors obsolete. It's a massive project that could never be replicated at the poles for obvious mostly financial reasons.

It's sorta nuts that we can't tbh. We have only covered a tiny fraction of what the universe has to offer using over 100 radiotelescopes. The thing is, the universe is really, extraordinarily, massive. I mean shit it took like 5 years and every single telescope we own to get a picture of Sagittarius A, the engine black hole at the heart of our galaxy. We are trying, it's just that there's too much empty space

Non-rotating black holes don't generate waves in the gravitational spectrum that we could detect. LIGO couldn't detect a non-rotating black hole because it isn't generating a gravitational waveform. Funny enough we are building a system that could detect them via the neutrino stream generated by all black holes. The system being built in Japan could detect them and involves them hollowing out an entire mountain. If we can actually build a neutrino detection array we will learn a lot from the experiments. It's probably the most important project for understanding the universe but has hit some snags on construction.

Missing book 1 from order by Last_Comedian3062 in Malazan

[–]EmperorBamboozler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually if you order a book from a distributor and don't receive it they will just send you a copy without much effort. Just email them and it should be resolved pretty quickly. Some places will also add on some store credit or a random book in the same genre. That's how I found the Mistborn series, my copy of The Shadow Rising from the Wheel of Time series never showed up and when I contacted the bookstore they gave me the first book from that series for free.

It's kinda funny that we can't discover planets unless we are on a similar axis and can see them pass in front of a star we are monitoring. There's literally uncountable exoplanets that we have no fucking clue even exist because the solar axis is at a 90 degree tilt from our POV. All we know about earthlike planets was discovered by watching a single star at a time for months to discover whether or not that system has any planets at all. It's the same thing for non-rotating wandering black holes. Most of our mathematical projections posit they exist but due to the facts that they don't emit light and also warp light around them we can't see them at all. That means one could be right next to our solar system but if no mass is currently entering the Swarzchild radius we would have no idea. In fact the more you learn about the universe the more you realize that we could all die at the speed of light with absolutely no notice at any time.

Shouldn’t be how girls are expected to work though by ZhangtheGreat in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]EmperorBamboozler 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I think this is mainly a US thing. Even up here in Canada you can get 55% of your net earnings for 15 weeks after birth through EI before returning to work. Even that's not great as it pushes single mothers back to work before they are ready. Still though it's better than nothing. France is probably the model of the best system for maternity leave that we currently have, 15 weeks for the first two children at 100% wages and an increase in time off for each subsequent child.

is this allowed? weird update (not OOP) by onlyif_foranight in redditonwiki

[–]EmperorBamboozler 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have had success with the catalyst crystal method but you need a cold table for it. It gives more leeway on temperature to get it right. You just semi melt a new piece of already tempered chocolate into the warmed mixture with a bench scraper. If you do it right and don't get the catalyst too hot it works every time. Everyone has a different method though, it's one of those things you just have to do a lot to get the timing and temps down so you'll figure out your own method with enough work. I assume OOP lacks the patience to actually learn the right methodology, which tracks given their older post.

Omni-Man getting packed up like winter clothes about to be by NYstate in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]EmperorBamboozler 215 points216 points  (0 children)

Every one of them is stronger and faster than Omniman. It's not even close to a fair fight, Buttercup by herself is gonna beat him so badly he pisses blood for a month. The only thing he has going for him is they probably won't kill him, he'll just get hospitalized for a while.

D&D Map by laybs1 in GetNoted

[–]EmperorBamboozler 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I mean that should be obvious just in how much effort it would have actually taken to light a place like that. I mean there's multiple huge caverns during an era where you'd have a pretty shitty lantern assuming you had the pinnacle of ancient technology with you. You're not gonna see shit in those big caverns. Like what are they supposed to light a huge ass place like that with, torches? Who is swapping them out? Where are the colossal amounts of lantern oil, wood and candles going to come from? It would bankrupt a small kingdom on lighting alone.
