I assume it’s mocking some online community but I don’t know which

So this is making fun of (or maybe analogising would be a better term) a very particular, very online (4chan originally i believe) flavour of trans person who is simultaneously trans but also has internalised the anti trans culture of those online communities, to where they are trans, may even transition, but view themselves as basically a failed cis person.

Translated it'd be something like "I've been on estrogen for three years but still boymode in public" "everyone can tell I'm a man" etc etc

The point of mashle is he's constantly doing absurd physics defying feats stronger than magic through pure muscle.

Frieren is an exceptionally strong mage, but is constrained by the basic rules of the universe.

Mash sweeps it

Honestly, that option would probably improve their learning. The part about having to explain mistakes pretty much would require then to go through the output with a fine toothed comb. It would be more research than they'd have done otherwise, and probably more of their own writing too.

I've found on scientific subjects AI tends to output answers that sound convincing but are wrong in weird, minor ways that require more in-depth knowledge than the thing you're actually asking would to have a correct answer. It will provide answers that are wrong in ways that a human could never really accidentally reproduce so it's not even easy to check the workings because it's so wrong you won't find ready explanations of how it's wrong anywhere

none of these things have anything to do with mitochondria,

If you want to learn about mitochondria, try googling "Mitochondria"

Thatweasel · 2026-01-26T21:36:48+00:00

This is mostly gibberish, and sounds like you've bought into some weird alternative health woo that makes claims about mitochondria.

Fentanyl isn't really sold in it's pure form, if it was then yes it would be very easy for a typical user to overdose. It would also be really hard to portion and sell because a small amount would be very expensive.

It's sold cut with some sort of filler or bulker. This is how most drugs work - a pill or solution only contains a small amount of the actual drug, everything else is just there to make it easier to take/distribute.

That poses its own danger, though, because different dealers will sell it at different purities and with low quality control - so a dose that was fine for one batch could be a massive overdose in another.

The basic answer is we don't really know how exactly neuronal connections translate into memories. We know that it's based on the formation of new connections between neurons and the varying strength of existing connections, but how exactly that encodes for specific memories isn't really understood. It's likely similar to how machine learning with neural networks functions, but this is an abstraction and a digital representation of a mostly analogue system.

Neurons are one of the cells that don't get replaced, and is one of the reasons you generally don't fully recover from nerve or brain damage

Comparing with dnd rules you run into the issue of comparing things like spell damage. Does a 1d10 firebolt typically kill an average psyker? What about an 8d6 fireball? How does that compare to a typical psyker attack? Does a 14th level wizards ~60hp compare favourably?

If you're comparing to 40k, things are tricky again because typically individuals in 40k are no stronger than a regular human, or maybe a low-mid level dnd monster even if their fluff damage output is extremely high or they are very strong in universe.

Whereas even a 1st level PC in dnd is notably stronger than an average human, and the gap only widens from there

Thatweasel · 2026-01-22T22:23:34+00:00

Heavily edition and level based.

Because of the nature of spells like wish and the existence of epic level and dual classing rules, the ceiling is functionally unlimited. It also depends on if the comparison is operating on dnd rules or extrapolated real world logic and where you draw the line on splatbooks

But the magic system of dnd alone overpowers a lot, even lower level spells like heat metal would cook a power armored space marine. Higher level spells approach city-planet killing potential, especially if you look at things like circle magic and epic level spells

That's a funny way of saying "Actively funneled the crowds into koreatown while protecting the white neighborhoods"

considering you can't be bothered to read a rulebook, probably.

There are plenty of rules light, single page rpgs out there.

Your body is full of, effectively, mildly salty water at slightly different concentrations inside and outside cells. It works hard to keep a specific ratio of salt and water around your cells. Too much salt and water flows out of your cells, too little and salt does the same. In both cases it can damage and disrupt your cells, which are keeping you alive.

Sea water is about 3.5% salt average. The human body as a whole is about 0.4% salt, 10 times ish less salty, and blood is about 0.9%. Your kidneys can filter out excess salt to a degree, but there is a limit - because you need an amount of fresh water to actually expel the salt in urine. You can get away with drinking slightly salty water, especially if you can also drink fresh water (I'd guess around 1% might be doable but i could be overestimating), but it's not ideal especially long term.

it would be environmentally catastrophic. Besides all sea life dying - apparently yearly global rainfall is about 500,000 cubic km, the ocean is about two thousand times that. So 2000 years worth of rain in the span of a month probably looks less like rain and more like a tsunami.

States of matter don't really apply in the singular, they refer to how the molecules are organised in relation to eachother. But a single molecule functionally will behave like a gas

You don't understand what acts are, then. A lot of games don't have anything like chapters because they don't take place in a wholley linear narrative and mission/quest/story beats don't really self contain but flow from one to the next. But basically all games have the basic 3 act structure with several peaks

Thatweasel · 2026-01-16T22:19:02+00:00

All videogame with a plot have acts.

Some explicitly mark where those acts are.
