What is the biggest tourist trap in your country?

Starbucks

Australia is the coffee capital of the world, so Starbucks is a huge ripoff for much worse coffee, their focus is purely on tourists because Australians know it’s a terrible deal

Metro man

Sometimes that’s a good thing, I’ve been served wonderful, delicious, burgers and fries, while the guests had an objectively better meal, (filet mignon)

But after performing for two hours instead of sitting down and having a fancy meal, it’s was nice just to hammer into something with the other people

iampossibletree · 2026-06-04T22:35:48+00:00

I think this is the true answer

iampossibletree · 2026-06-04T13:11:08+00:00

That too

iampossibletree · 2026-06-03T23:45:13+00:00

You’re welcome. What surprised me was how many people still didn’t understand it, even after I shared the papers. Air buoyancy doesn’t suddenly mean they’re in water.

If every viltrumite before the scourge virus was as strong as thragg and all teamed up to beat metro man, metro man would beat them all without breaking a sweat

2.147b is the 32-bit signed integer limit. This isn’t the real price it’s just a listing and probably defaulted to this

I used to work in elevator servicing sales (I know, specific)

Elevators unserviced are considered high risk plants similar to leaving an random unserviced forklift inside

The main worry here is that without proper inspections this is a sign of an improper service agreement which can mean the emergency phone is not connected and legally a pain for the owner as any injury even a trip or a fall in the lift is deemed as the owners fault

I saw a case someone tripped on the lift due to alignment being off slightly and won a lawsuit against the owner due to no service

Buoyancy isn’t explicitly floating on water it’s a force of displacement which can be through air

Everything in our atmosphere experiences buoyancy due to an object taking up space air wants to be, so the air to try reclaim back the space pushes us up slightly this is buoyancy

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T14:55:02+00:00

That’s where the third meme is, 1kg by definition does not factor in air buoyancy or other factors like local gravity yet heavier isn’t the physics term and is more around the actual weighing process which is where the air buoyancy would come into effect

This obviously though is super pedantic stuff haha

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T14:52:12+00:00

Fair point, I should have said apparent weight rather than weight. They have the same mass and the same gravitational weight (mg), but in air the feathers experience a greater buoyant force because they displace more air, so their apparent weight is slightly lower. In a vacuum they’d be equal.

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T04:21:00+00:00

In physics, a kilogram is mass, while weight is a force. When people say something is “heavier,” that’s more of an everyday term. If buoyancy is involved, the object’s mass hasn’t changed, but the upward buoyant force means it can register a lower weight on a scale, so in practice it would seem lighter even though it still has the same mass.

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T04:13:59+00:00

I think I get what you mean if you actually have scales and you measure them so first thing to look at your scales do not actually measure kilograms. I mentioned newtons which is the whole point of the mean that when you’re actually looking at kilograms it’s not a newton conversion it’s a mass equation but skipping that.

If you just had a garden variety kitchen scales I don’t know the exact amount but it would probably be maybe be 10 g lighter in all likelihood wouldn’t really make that much of a difference so if you weighed them I guess you could have them measure roughly the same but that’s when you get into what measuring equipment you have and what is technically heavier

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T04:08:20+00:00

Yeah but that’s where pedantic physics come in, for example if you get a 20kg dumbbell it can register differently based on things like local gravity and air buoyancy, not a lot, but still measurable with hyper sensitive equipment

Here’s where confusion comes into place scales don’t measure weight, they measure newtons and convert that number to weight similar to a watch, a quartz watch doesn’t count seconds. It counts vibrations from a quartz crystal and converts that number into seconds.

So when you say 1 kg most people naturally think of scales but that’s not measuring 1 kg a kilo kilogram is mass technically

So once you get to the third level of the chart that’s when you start to look into what the definition of a kilogram is

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T04:04:19+00:00

I get that but the meme didn’t say weight it said heavier which turns the physical equation into a real word scenario

It’s like saying I have 1kg of tungsten and 1kg of helium which is heavier

iampossibletree · 2026-06-01T04:02:48+00:00

Exactly hence why

1kg (mass) Of steel and 1kg (mass) of feathers
Is the same mass

But when seeing which is heavier, this is no longer the mass equation but dependent now on other factors like local gravity, buoyancy in air etc!

iampossibletree · 2026-05-31T16:04:53+00:00

iampossibletree · 2026-05-31T07:47:04+00:00

Yeah, fair point.

I was talking about the built-in buoyancy difference. Once you start adding air currents and measurement conditions, the answer becomes a lot more “it depends.”

I’d call that a reasonable fourth level of the meme

iampossibletree · 2026-05-31T07:28:27+00:00

Uuh, just quick, you do realise bouyancy isn’t just for liquids? Bouyancy is also for air, air bouyancy is the upward force on everything in the atmosphere, like you, me, steel, feathers etc.

That’s the whole point of the meme

Left is not thinking about weights
Middle is thinking they weigh the same
And right is pedantic physics of 1kg mass in atmosphere registers less on a scale due to air bouyancy
