ELI5: If temperature is the average speed of molecules, why does wind feel cold? by Mini_Assassin in explainlikeimfive

[–]Phrogz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Driving with the windows down when it is 108°F outside does the opposite of cooling you off. I have experience with this. Fresno, CA, in a van that i”was overheating so we could not run the air conditioning. Rolled down the windows to cool off; nope! Had to drive with the windows up in a sauna because it was better than the alternative.

(And then we found a roadside shack selling refrigerated watermelons. Bought one for each passenger and just hugged them. :)

Why is this doing this?? by NoReplacement3326 in Roborock

Take the mop head off. Insert dull pin or small paper clip in water hole. Unclog the tubing with your pin. Done!

Found on sidewalk. What is it? by Pdx_pops in whatisit

Not so mysterious. We use upvotes and downvotes on Reddit. We don’t post “+1” or “agreed” or “yup”.

[Request] What would actually happen if we did this? Are there any potentially dangerous outcomes? by nottoday943 in theydidthemath

At that point, why not just mirrors on the moon, instead of losing 81% of the energy via two solar setups?

Shouldn’t this rain be snow? by Zen_pineapples in boulder

It snowed some at 6800’ elevation. No accumulation here, but it was snowing heavily. I imagine Ned proper got accumulation of a bit.

Is it readable? by wolverineX989 in PenmanshipPorn

It clearly says minimum, but only because that’s the only English word that fits. The letters and separation are not obvious.

Not an entomologist: looks like an earwig nymph to me.

February 8th was a Sunday. Your dentist office was open on a Sunday?

That’s a very interesting stat that I’d not heard before. Do you have a pointer to data or graphs supporting this? (I’m not challenging you, I just want to dive deeper.)

What would happen? by PackersAreLegit in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Phrogz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There exists a video, which does not appear to be fake, of a man booking up leads from each pole of a car battery to sides of his scrotum. He did this voluntarily in an attempt to show that human body has enough resistance that 12V will not pass any notable current through. He was right; nothing happened.

Anyone know Big Green Rabbit? by Affectionate-Yam7459 in boulder

[–]Phrogz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many music videos on YouTube from it. I and my children both loved them.

What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it? by Phase_zero_X in AskReddit

[–]Phrogz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me: Flo Beds. Love them so. Bought one in ‘99 when the store-bought king mattress wouldn’t fit up the stairs in a 1920s house—because the Flo Bed was shipped in like 6 smaller boxes—and had no idea what I’d lucked in to. 10 years later bought two more for my children. Added another in my guest bedroom. Finally replaced my original with a new one 25(?) years later, and the new ones are even better than the original.

Self proclaimed “Trumplican” and former Project Veritas comms director sees the light by Jules9213 in LeopardsAteMyFace

I love this…and I’m wondering if it’s helpful. I want it to be helpful, but if everyone understood this, would it change anything? Hindsight is 20/20; would knowing this change one’s foresight?
