2 minutes later, I set my time machine to go 1 minute back in time, collect the coin from myself, bring it to the present. Now I have 2 gold coins.
I don’t follow. If you took the coin from the past, it no longer exists in the present. You still have 1 coin. You are duplicated, however, and now two of you exist in the present timeline. You could do the duplication glitch by taking the present timeline coin back to the past and giving it to past self, who now has two coins.
Airplanes constantly turn over the cabin air 10-15x per hour with bleed air from the engines. This then heads out the outflow valves to the exterior of the airplane.
The recirculating fans have HEPA filters on them, but the majority of air is fresh.
Even with no peanuts on board, there still can be contamination of the other foods served on board, not to mention residue from previous passengers snacks.
Free parking rule is complete ass and makes the game take ages. People going bankrupt faster is a positive.
Didn’t realize users changed, my bad.
Just saying “watts staying underground” is a poor explanation. That’s an insignificant amount of energy compared to what the sun is delivering and what’s being trapped by CO2. “Carbon staying underground” is much more the priority.
Yeah, that explanation sounded off to me. CO2 and other greenhouse gases are the issue, not heat directly released from combustion. The sun is doing the overwhelming majority of heating. Carbon staying underground matters far more than watts staying underground.
Burning coal doesn’t significantly heat the planet directly. The CO2 released by this causes solar heating to be more effective by trapping the escaping infrared radiation. It’s the greenhouse gases that are the issue, not the energy released by combustion. “Watts staying underground” is a poor explanation. Burning coal makes watts from the sun more effective at heating the earth.

I’m an older millennial who’s fairly into vaporwave and I’ve never heard of this racist rapper version of mac tonight. The food mascot from the 80s (twenty years ago was 2004, btw) fits in with the 80s samples vaporwave uses, like this Saint Pepsi track:
Diarrhea isn’t necessarily “used” by the body in all cases. With things like rotavirus and Vibrio (cholera) it’s caused by the infectious agent and aids in its spread. It can be so severe it kills the person via dehydration.
Bases were used because they were more compatible with the solder that connected copper pipes in older homes.
Bases are much more effective at breaking up organic matter than acids. You can pour concentrated acid on your hand to little effect if you rinse it off quickly. You will not be able to do this with strong bases (think that scene from Fight Club). Strong bases rapidly destroy organic matter.
If you need to dissolve a body, use lye, not some acid.
The more resistance there is, the less the electrical load is. Maximum electrical load would be a short circuit (near zero resistance, maximum current flow); minimum would be a cord or device with infinite resistance (no current flow).
Considering V=I*R and P=I^2 * R, increasing resistance will decrease current and this will decrease power.

You’re correctly identifying thermal mass as why they feel cooler to the touch, but this is mixed up in some incorrect and contradictory statements. You seem to keep changing your reasoning behind why tiles feel cooler to the touch.
The ceramic tiles in your house aren’t really “colder” than you
This is incorrect, and why I replied to begin with.
Flooring is colder than your skin, regardless of the material, unless your floor temp is above 92℉ (33.5℃). You can measure this with a thermometer. If something is the same temperature as your skin you won’t feel anything - there’s no heat transfer. You could have a copper floor if it was the same temperature as your skin, you wouldn’t feel a thing.
[Ceramic tiles] also have a high thermal mass … they easily lose heat to the air.
These two statements are directly contradicting one another. High thermal mass means it takes a longer time to lose heat to the air. Given identical conditions, ceramic will take longer to change temperature than fabric. For example, if you opened a window and it was 40℉ outside, the carpet would drop in temperature faster than the ceramic tile. It wouldn’t feel this way to your skin, but it could be measured with a thermometer.
That thermal mass is why tiles feel cooler than carpet. Your body has no issue warming the fibers in carpet next to your skin to the same temperature as your skin, it’s harder to warm up the tile because of the thermal mass.
You can hold a ceramic tile in your hand and apply a blowtorch to the other side. They’re better insulators than conductors. That’s why you see ceramics used for insulating hot food bowls from wooden tables, or a more extreme example, ceramic tiles on re-entry vehicles. Ceramic is not a good conductor of heat.
Wood is about 0.1 W/mK, ceramics about 1 W/mK, and copper is about 400 W/mK.
The ceramic tiles in your house aren’t really “colder” than you
Yes, quite literally they are colder. You can measure this with a thermometer. A more apt comparison would be ceramic floor vs wood flooring, or ceramic vs air temp, as all this flooring is at identical temperatures, yet feels different to the touch.
Tiles do not feel cooler because they “easily lose heat to the air”. Quite the opposite; they take longer to heat or cool than fabric or wood due to their thermal mass. This is also why they feel cooler to the touch. Your body can warm the low mass of fabric or wood faster than it can ceramic, thus those materials feel less cold when you step on them.
If you’re going to be pedantic, at least do it right.
The ceramic tiles in your house aren’t really “colder” than you
Yes they are; they’re not warm blooded mammals, and they’re at the lowest level in the house, where the coldest air is.
they are very good and transfering heat
Ceramics generally have poor thermal conductivity. Metal is a good conductor of heat.
Bandcamp is a good option for directly supporting artists for the time being, especially if you queue up all your purchases for a Bandcamp Friday, where artists/labels receive all the money rather than BC taking their 20% cut.
It’s inherently exploitative due to the age difference. Free speech doesn’t cover violating someone else’s rights like that.
Crabapples are different from regular apples, it’s not just an apple tree in the wild. They’re smaller and more tart.
Ever shined a powerful flashlight or laser around and seen all the particles floating in the air? You can also see them sometimes with a particularly bright sun beam coming through a blind. While these visible particles probably aren’t spores, it does illustrate how much stuff you’re constantly breathing in. There is no escaping. You’re part of life, there’s billions of organisms on you and in you at all times, and they’re fighting for survival too. There’s no escape. The only reason you survive is because of your immune system, and that’s why immunodeficient people like severe burn victims and AIDS patients just die despite nothing particularly “wrong” happening to them.
