The only good episode of the Book of Boba Fett with Boba Fett in it was just Dune in a trenchcoat

I know a former teacher in China who told me that it’s a very respected profession there, in the same way that doctors and lawyers are respected in the west.

The architect is colouring all the balls

The senior developer is arguing with the architect

The junior developer is cannonballing somewhere in the middle

Rest in peace

Healthy filters make for a healthy Lemmy experience.

Air fryers do use air convention for heating, but they aren’t just smaller convection ovens. They have lots of design features that make them much more suited to certain types of cooking. The basket, much higher airflow, etc. all make a big difference in how you use them.

I had a countertop convection oven that was about the same size as an air fryer and they both had different use cases.

That sounds like the video stays on your device but the photos do not.

I read it as “I’m not very knowledgeable” rather than “I don’t like it”.

Ripping off Nintendo games is a proven successful strategy for them!

ok

Why?

Okay and?

He said a ricochet was possible and put an argument together with video examples and distance numbers. You haven’t done much except express disbelief, and that isn’t very convincing.

You said a ricochet at the correct angle to land in the baseball field would be impossible, and you asked me to draw the trajectory.

Honest question, why is this so hard to imagine? He posted this video, can you watch it and tell me what you think? https://youtu.be/0ABGIJwiGBc

I think we all know this was probably just redneck shit, no argument there.

I’m still not seeing any issue. A bullet can ricochet in any direction. The first thing @AlDente@sh.itjust.works posted was a video example of a bullet ricocheting directly backwards (nearly straight up I think?), then ricocheting again off the ground and into the shooter’s earmuff.

He showed enough examples and hard numbers for distance to convince me that this could be a freak accident. If you want to change my mind, you’re going to have to provide counterexamples. I’m even convinced that it could happen with many bullets in a row if the shooting was consistent.

I think he made a good case for it being possible. That baseball field really isn’t far away from a bullet’s perspective. He mentioned his first time shooting tracers, which makes me think he has a lot of real life experience shooting FMJ bullets and seeing them ricochet. He posted videos showing ricochets, you can see them maintaining almost all of their momentum.

I am pretty sure this is the gun range and you’re supposed to shoot in the direction of the blue arrow. That big mound of earth is where the targets would be and is supposed to catch stray bullets. Something tells me that redneck fuckery was involved.

Found it on Google maps, I think I was right.

I am Canadian. People in Europe would always ask if I was American after hearing me speak, and their faces would always lighten up when I told them I was Canadian.

In Spain it was the worst. I would sometimes overhear service staff tell each other I was American and proceed to get awful service. It got to the point that I started going in to random stores to try to (unsuccessfully) find something with a Canadian flag on it.

I will try my best to be obviously Canadian next time.

Harper doesn’t deserve to be compared to Trump like that. Harper is dislikable and definitely conservative, but his actions don’t hold a candle to Trump’s. Trump is evil.

Happy to be proven wrong, I don’t remember everything either.

Fuck yeah Toronto!
