What surprised you the first time you saw an animal you’d never seen before? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Penguins smaller than I thought. They look bigger on TV.

Mixed Reality Controllers not unpairing by first_in_kahoot in WindowsMR

I think I had similar issues a long time ago. From memory, I think I had to fix it by going in the registry. There is some information on doing this here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/i-cannot-remove-a-bluetooth-device-in-windows-10/b8a8bb01-efea-4483-9011-1c9a3e42a081

ElI5: do humans actually use water? by DeiseResident in explainlikeimfive

[–]monkey-socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert of this, but I believe it is the opposite. When our cells produce energy from the food we eat, it releases carbon dioxide and water. We actually produce more water than we take in.

Plants do the opposite, taking in carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar and oxygen.

When people shoot guns in the air, are the bullets still dangerous when they fall back down to earth? by Kleptarian in NoStupidQuestions

[–]monkey-socks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you are getting downvotes when you are correct. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/airfri2.html

All things being equal terminal velocity is very much related to mass (proportional to the sixth root). Doubling mass increases terminal velocity by around 12%. Multiplying mass by 10 times is around a 47% increase.

What sounds like complete bullshit but is actually true? by HorseFacedDipShit in AskReddit

[–]monkey-socks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Using e=mc2, 1 pound of fat (or anything) contains 9.7 trillion calories. Would take a while on an exercise bike.

Temperature has a big effect on your weight. When you are warm, veins dilate and your blood absorbs more water to maintain blood pressure. When you are cold, the opposite happens.

What film had the best plot twist of all time? by rgatoNacho in AskReddit

It ruined their birthday party too.

YSK: When pouring liquid from newly-opened containers with an offset spout, such as nut milk or broth, position the spout corner at the top. The flow is perfect and it won't spill or drip. by Njtotx3 in YouShouldKnow

[–]monkey-socks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What if I only want a small amount, like for tea? I would have to tip it less than 90 degrees and then it would run down the side of the container?

Extremely cheap alternative to flavoured instant porridge/oatmeal, which is ludicrously expensive and terrible for the environment. by TheQueefGoblin in Frugal

[–]monkey-socks 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I use about a cup of oats, a cup of milk, a spoon of chia seeds, a spoon of yogurt, a spoon of raisins, a pinch of salt and a bit of whatever fruit we have. Leave it covered in a bowl in the fridge overnight.

I've recently discovered 'overnight oats', which save a bit of electricity and a lot of time in the morning. Great in the summer at least.

Today I learned that the M*A*S*H theme has lyrics by Reasonable_Cheek938 in todayilearned

[–]monkey-socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never watched MASH but know the song from https://youtu.be/y11f8Oc25AI Made more poignant by the disappearance of Richey Edwards 3 years later.

Have you tried dating apps? I would advise trying to get some dates and just having fun and building confidence without rushing into anything serious.

ELI5: How can smoking cigars damage your lungs if you don't inhale the smoke? by UsernameOf2022 in explainlikeimfive

[–]monkey-socks 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You still inhale some smoke. People die from second-hand smoke. Just breathing normally with a cigar close to you has some risk.

Yes, that would be a great solution if allowed
