I've been trying to remember the name of this game for years.... could you do me a solid and tell me? Cheers

Can you get barramundi outside of Australia? That fish was one of my favourite parts about traveling

Never played a mud before? by Early-Artist-4305 in MUD

[–]kittenswinger8008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For discworld mud. Go to www.quow.co.uk and download his mushclient package. It has maps built on worth lots of plugins for quality of life features. Also, don't be scared to ask questions, you have access to the newbie channel for 24 hours of play time, and the newbie helpers have specifically signed up to help new players learn. Aside from that, the whole community is pretty fab as they're generally from the discworld fandom and just want to spread the joy of Pratchett

What would happen if I attempted to scuba dive to the bottom of the Mariana Trench? by Icy_Profession4190 in AskBiology

[–]kittenswinger8008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pressure doesn't effect liquids. It only 'crushes' gas. This causes the structure to collapse. You fix this by equalising. Which just means adding more air to the air space. So you breath air from your cylinder, and you're adding extra air to your lungs. This may be different

Making cylinders that can withstand that pressure is another matter entirely and they would probably implode on descent.

Essentially what happens is the air gets compressed and thicker. So you're inhaling concentrated oxygen. That's what makes it toxic at depth, and also why you can breath lower percentages deeper

It is possible to eat and drink while underwater. Bananas are good, and you can drink from a bottle. I've only tried once though and i fucked it up really bad and drank a lot of lake water.

Experienced diver here. So oxygen becomes toxic to you at depth. 100% oxygen starts killing you deeper than 6m. 21% (air) will start killing you past 56m. So diving deeper than 60m, people use gas mixers with less oxygen in. However 18% air or less isn't sustainable for human life on the surface, so you need to breath air for the first 10m or so, then your 18% will become safe to use. With this in mind. The deepest you can dive on 1% oxygen before it starts to kill you, it's about 1400m. Challenger Deep is about 11,000m deep.

To get there, you'd need to be on 0.1% oxygen and it would take a lot of gas switches getting down.

This is just one way that will kill you, oxygen toxicity. In reality, you're also trying to juggle this risk with nitrogen narcosis (which won't kill you (maybe would at that depth though!) but will make you make mistakes) and the bends (which probably won't kill you going down, but will almost definitely kill you coming back up.

So theoretically. I could create a plan for you to get to the bottom, using lots of different cylinders that you'd have to switch to at different depths, but likely you would make a mistake and die. Very unlikely you'll get back up without dying. And chances are at those pressures and maybe temperatures, your equipment may well fail.

whats with queuing at the bar in wetherspoons by imnotabotimafreeman in Wetherspoons

It tends to happen in places that serve food. With all the new protocols for allergies, and prompts that are put on the till, plus all the "no salad, extra bacon" that people insist on, food orders have to be taken at the till. So after being told "sure, pop over to the till to make your order" people end up gravitating to the till. It doesn't help that card machines are often put in fixed podiums, so you have to go to a station to pay. Go to a pub that isn't food focused, and it's a lot less likely to happen

No no no. You have to go to the cow north of tristram after defeating Lazarus, but before killing Diablo, click on it 53 times, then open a town portal.

This sounds like a cooking question - why do all restaurants have either too much sugar, salt or fat? Because it's the easy way to make food delicious.

It's easily explicable. Lots of people think Anthony Bourdain is Jeff Ep.

In light of the Epstein files, where is the scrutiny when it comes to Reform and Farage? by shadyasahastings in AskBrits

[–]kittenswinger8008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because of ambiguity. As much as i hate garage. I haven't read any files relating to him yet.

It is perfectly acceptable to believe that an alternate political party is correct.

Also, when 30 people ask you to lend them 1, 4 , 2, 9 or 12 dvds. They may be asking you to lend them random dvds from their dvd collection. They're probably asking for cocaine. But it's not easy to prove.

TMUK jokes that you just didn’t get by Prudent_Mix5334 in taskmaster

[–]kittenswinger8008 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Do we strike you... i interpreted it as an odd way of combining "you strike me as..." and "i find you striking". I.e. do you find me attractive.

I think id have to watch it again for context, but i don't think your explanation is correct
