Heck yeah, the Washington monument in DC is capped with aluminum like how the egyptian pyramids used to be capped with gold, because aluminum used to be a precious metal. (Sure, its a nice lightning rod too) Now it's so common you can find it in the trash on the side of the road

I find it fascinating that this exact process that was discovered in order to create weapons during war is also whats used to create the majority of the worlds industrial fertilizers. It's singlehandedly the biggest leap in food production ever, more than GMOs or crossbreeding or anything. It's basically the main reason we are able to support a global population in the billions. We've used it so much that we are dependent on it

The ketchup container isn't even that unrealistic. I've met women that will pull out their own condiments. I'd go as far as to say it's a massive green flag for me. Please share that purse sriracha, miss.

This isn't an argument or even a discussion. You're just beating a dead horse and the rest of us are sick of seeing it.

This discussion exists because dumbass Russian apologists won't shut up about it

I encourage you to google the paradox of tolerance, because you sound like a Fox News propagandist saying 'so much for the tolerant left am I right?'

Russia made its bed. The response from the US is exactly that - a response. Even the most tolerant society will HAVE TO be intolerant towards intolerance in order to exist.

You can understand this or not, I really don't care. But at least someone attempted to explain to you why you're getting buried in downvotes.

If you dropped an original iPod that still had a hard drive in it and it stopped working, the fix on every forum was to just drop it again

Did rough math elsewhere, you would need around a million piles of cash each the size of planet earth to come close

So google got fined 2x10 ^ 34?

The earth is made up of 1.33x10 ^ 50 atoms. An A4 sheet of paper is made up of 8.37x10 ^ 23. Let's assume roughly a dollar bill is 1/8th of an A4 sheet, so 1x10 ^ 23.

The atoms in the dollar bill (10 ^ 23) multipled by the fine total (2x10 ^ 34) is 2x10 ^ 57.

This means if every atom on the entire earth was rearranged into dollar bills you wouldn't have enough money. You would need to do that to a million earths to pay that fine.

Disclaimer: I half assed this math on my lunch break and I trusted Google AI results for the atom counts

Just don't install it alongside Windows.

So I can get close enough to airdrop photos of my penis to the president of the United States. What did you think I was going to use it for?

Original Xbox modding is fun as hell. You need to track down a 300GB PATA/IDE hard drive, then load the sucker up with ROMS. The modded OS comes with a built in FTP server so its pretty effortless to load up it with ROMs. Last I tried (like 10 years ago) Xbox reliably played roms from SNES and older, and could less than reliably but still successfully play N64 and PS1 games. I was even able to change CDs on FF7.

Man I want to mod an Xbox now. If I remember right, you need a copy of mech assault...
