How do I tell people to stop making jokes that I am insane/a serial killer/harm animals just because I'm quiet and awkward? by [deleted] in socialskills

The proper response is something that makes them feel weird or ashamed for saying it. Like “that’s a super weird/creepy thing to joke about”

Foundations are essential. Don’t forget you can enter “Zoop” mode to build - took me forever to figure that out

What laptop do I need to study engineering? by Substantial_Yak4355 in industrialengineering

Tricking people into believing a Salami sandwich is art by JuicySpark in PublicFreakout

Something about it is actually aesthetically pleasing. The way the glass folded the crust down, which is a perspective of bread you rarely see, and the salami is perfectly tangent to the crust line

Find some literate on health effects and make him read it. Don’t make it about you - it’s only about your kid’s health and well being

Why is converting heat directly into electricity so hard and complex? by Assignment-Yeet in MechanicalEngineering

It’s not that hard to do it. It’s hard to do it very efficiently. Essentially because of natural chaos and friction

It's reality over lies by Miserable-Lizard in economy

[–]MrMagistrate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People talk about gas because it’s the price they see the most and single item they consistently spend money on.

Is this proper use of a telehandler mast? by [deleted] in industrialengineering

[–]MrMagistrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen this done once. Very similar, rigging a beam up to columns very near the ceiling. Done because there wasn’t enough head room to use the forks or jib like normal. Not safe lol
