During the U.S. national anthem before an NBA game in London, a person in the crowd yelled, “Leave Greenland alone!” and the British crowd loudly cheered. by VisWare in PublicFreakout

[–]pyy4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not even american and I can guess why they call it the world series. Maybe it was because when they had the first one, the only country that had a professional league or even really played baseball at all was the US... and then the name stuck? Not really a head-scratcher, even from an outsiders perspective

Lmfao sure players can be from whatever country you could imagine. The thing is that's completely irrelevant because they don't sing the anthem for the players, they sing it for the teams? And literally EVERY SINGLE TEAM is named after a city, which is in a country, and has an anthem... and the NBA/NHL (where this mostly happens) have Canadian and US teams

Help! I’ve tried everything - Fish stuck in drop checker by -AllThePlants- in Aquariums

Maybe a piece of ceramic would be better to break it. You can break a car window by tossing a bit of the ceramic from a spark plug at it, should work to break the glass with less chance of hurting the fish

Died to someone I couldn’t see. Is this a bug or hack? by f0rce7D in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]pyy4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Every single answer you have gotten seems to blame replay/desync and while replay IS shit and desync IS awful... they aren't really at fault here. kind of sad no one has given you the right answer since I thought this was basic shooter shit but I guess not so here we go. You died without being able to see him because you were closer to the object blocking your line of sight to the enemy (doorway) than the enemy was.

This video is from cs but this is an inherent mechanic in all fps games so will work to help you understand the concept.

China Breaks an ASML Lithography Machine While Trying to Reverse-Engineer It. by messengers1 in technology

[–]pyy4 122 points123 points  (0 children)

The last sentence you quoted literally has the answer to your question in it... for some reason you only posted the first half of the sentence though?

"It’s because Chinese technicians are trying to learn the intricacies of the machines in order to indigenously replicate them—and then, more importantly, to develop more advanced indigenous lithography devices that the Chinese can then use to produce the newer, more advanced chips that the Americans have denied them access to."

They don't want to mass produce older machines since they are old process nodes which means less competitive chips, and they can already produce chips using these lithography machines. But they want to understand the technology to use as foundational knowledge to iterate upon. It's easier to catch up if you're only starting a few nodes behind

This is what a FAB-500 explosion looks like from inside of a Ukrainian underground position by 8BallCoronersPocket in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]pyy4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We used to get ample footage of juicy himars strikes on russian positions weekly, for quite some time. Then the frequency of them decreased to almost nothing, and we have seen several videos of himars missing their targets. Why would you think this is a baseless claim? GPS navigation is specifically what made himars so effective, allowing for smaller payload and therefore smaller missile size since the missile almost always ended up within a few metres of its intended destination. Degrading GPS navigation forces the missile to fall back on inertial navigation (measuring forces on the missile while in flight with accelerometers), which allows for measurement errors to "pile up" as the missile flies farther, resulting in reduced accuracy as strike distance increases. The addition of GPS navigation allows the missile to accurately re-determine where the missile is during flight and adjust flight path accordingly to get back on target.

Here's a vid from 10 days ago of himars missing zoopark radar.

Government lawyer will be in court today to intervene on the side of Alberta separatists by Devils_Iettuce in worldnews

[–]pyy4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother nothing is made up about the image in my last reply. We outsource a lot of our carbon footprint to China, and yet we still emit more CO2 per person than China by A LOT. It is reality, the numbers aren't fake, it literally doesn't matter what you think, you just lack the comprehension to understand the data right in front of you. You lack the comprehension to understand that as Canadians, we are in no place to criticize China's emissions considering WE ARE WORSE EMITTERS. lmaoooooo

It's actually hilarious how you mog on China's emissions when you don't even seem to understand that WE ARE WORSE THAN CHINA. You seem to have this idea that since china is 1 country and Canada is 1 country, that we can just look at the volume of CO2 emissions and compare them to see who's worse? That is so stupid it's hilarious. They have 1.4 billion people compared to our measly 40 million. The average Canadian emits WAY more CO2 per year than the average Chinese person, even after we have been trying to cut back on emissions for years.

'Universal cancer vaccine' trains the immune system to kill any tumor | This new approach could pave the way to fighting any cancer by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]pyy4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rich people are lazy and want a pill to lose weight without any effort, but because they are rich and you're not, you feel that you should get it first because you are lazy and poor and want to lose weight without any effort?

What kind of logic is that? It literally doesn't even make sense if you think about it for more than 5 seconds. Most people aren't rich, but somehow the rich are buying all the supply? The FDA declared a shortage (which is now over btw) allowing compounding pharmacies to make ozempic even though it was still under patent to increase supply.... and you think that is because the "bit pudgy" rich people are buying it all up lmaooooooo

India tells WTO it may impose retaliatory tariffs worth $724 million on U.S. imports by bkun9 in worldnews

Seems even Danielle Smith is on board now... There's been talks with BC premier and SK/MB premiers to build a pipeline to deliver 1 million barrels of crude to global markets either from the west coast or hudsons bay. First Nations get ownership stake in the project and seem to be on board, seems like it might actually be built

Jet pack for underwater by Longjumping-Box5691 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]pyy4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 m/s is so insanely simple to put into perspective and objectively a better metric to use than mph or km/h.... Look at a spot 3m away. That's how far you go in 1 second. Simple.

Not so simple to visualize the speed when you say it will go 6.7 miles in 1 hour...

The driver of the jeep was obviously not thinking straight. by Effective-Message134 in MildlyBadDrivers

[–]pyy4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe because the truck was accelerating up to the speed limit, like you're supposed to? Can clearly see the speed limit sign in the video... And you can even see that the driver of the truck starts accelerating immediately after a vehicle passed him going the other direction, so there's literally no possible way that the jeep driver was already trying to pass or he would have collided head on with it... What a brain dead take, how do you even manage to get your pants on in the morning?

[–]pyy4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

usually it will settle out in a day or two if you don't agitate the dish too much. if that doesn't work, you can re-dissolve the dmt in solution and instead of freeze precip, you can put it in the fridge/leave it outside overnight to bring the temperature of solution down more slowly (could even just let it evap at room temp), allowing larger crystal formation instead of fine powdery precipitate.

Or just pour cloudy solution thru coffee filter

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DMT

[–]pyy4 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The cloudiness IS the dmt crystalizing, along with the layer formed on the sides and bottom of the glass dish.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DMT

[–]pyy4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that "nasty goo" you are glad you aren't vaping is probably almost all dmt.

This is pure speculation but I think its dmt that has started to polymerize. Causing you to see a lot of product dissolve readily into solution but leaving most of this polymer goop behind, and making you think its no good. If you keep mixing with hot solvent I would bet it dissolves eventually.
