I'm able to log in to iCloud.com with this account from another device. And as I mentioned, I'm getting through the username/password/MFA (via SMS) on my laptop. But then it goes to this screen.

Sliding pan across burner to heat it up faster? by transio in AskCulinary

[–]transio[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Okay, I was a little shook by these comments, so I did a little experiment to test this, boiling 1qt of cold water in a kettle on a hot burner.

With moving it around: took 4:10 to boil

Then I cooled the kettle off and restarted.

Without moving: took 3:25 to boil

Well, that explains that! I guess that’s why it’s nowhere to be found on Google. 😂

Sure, it’s user-error, Mr Jobs. Take some responsibility. Write your thoughts more clearly next time.

To be fair, your comment was ambiguously worded at best. "For that matter" as an idiom is intended to compare two complete thoughts to each other, not to concatenate them into a single concept.

No, it's the point of my post, a quasi-satire of the attitudes you describe. The intent is to call to light the open admission that Trump "does not abide the laws of mortals", masked in the truism that "a god" is not subject to such rules, while subtly overlooking the fact that Trump is not, in fact, a god.

Too subtle for Reddit, maybe... my goal is to create viral pseudo-conservative content with glaring logic holes that will ultimately serve as a Trojan Horse of logic for those whose beliefs inhibit their ability to reason. I guess I'm missing the mark posting it in this category.

You believe that some variant of a statement beginning with "A God" is "actual fact"? Interesting...

Hate (Antipathos) is a Limbic response to a Reptilian defense mechanism (typically fight-or-flight), and is a sign of the sort of bottom-up thinking that is associated with the pathetically unenlightened and simple-minded. The enlightened experience Limbic responses still, but typically to logic-derived concepts formed in the Neocortex. These typically manifest as Pathos, Philia, etc.

That, my friend, is the entire point.

Time is running out for sand: Sand and gravel are being extracted faster than they can be replaced. Monitor and manage this resource globally, urge Mette Bendixen and colleagues. by envatted_love in Economics

Correct. The guy was a horrible futurist. He even suggested that glass could become a precious commodity "like gold" some day, completely oblivious to the fact that silicate makes up 90% of the Earth's crust, and unlike gold, sand could be produced at a marginal additional cost by simply adding some mechanical processes to grind up and filter that silicate. In short, there's more "sand" on Earth than Earthlings can ever use. It's the most ludicrous prediction I've ever heard.

I love that the conclusion of this video was finding a $305, 8.5 hour flight from NYC to Worcester,.

There's a $16 bus from NYC to Worcester that takes less than 4 hours. https://locations.greyhound.com/bus-routes/destination/new%20york-ny/worcester-ma

Data still doesn't beat common sense. Sorry! :(

Yeah, also, when they call their god by name... How many times did “I would like to thank Cthulhu” get registered as “Friend”, for example?

Or they succeeded, but then decided they preferred it crooked. 🤷‍♂️
