Coping? What’s that?

Which is where hybrids have a huge advantage, getting the best of both worlds

Yeah but then you have to clean the pot afterwards. You can throw away the bag.

Is cleaning the pot hard? No, absolutely not. But if you’re lazy, you’ll probably lean towards the far easier option which is just the one where you throw away the bag afterwards

Because any “official act” by the president is now legal, presidents are now kings, and the only treasonous thing is to not support anything and everything the president says or does

You could always put it in a (glass) container, or wrap it in aluminum foil

I’ve used OCLP, and I didn’t even realize they largely switched to Discord. That explains why finding some info was such a PITA when I was playing around with it.

I will never understand why people choose to use Discord as a forum replacement. It’s just such an awful platform for that.

5 meters is definitely way too short for the chair swing ride. Look at the people in the seats. It’s definitely at least 10 meters.

Assuming 10 meters and 100 km/h, that gives about 7.9 g. That’s in the range of what fighter pilots might experience and well beyond where most people black out, so that’s still definitely too high.

Looking it up online, this is a pretty classic physics problem and the numbers you might see around it are closer to a radius of 12 meters and a speed of 13 to 17 m/s. Taking that as 15 m/s (54 km/h), that works out to about 1.9 g, which I can subjectively say feels much closer to the real value if you ever ride on one of these.

So, the second one is about 1.9 g

It wouldn’t necessarily collapse (it wasn’t exactly suffering before FOSS stuff “hit the shelves”, so to speak) but the gatekeeping that comes with it would certainly cause a tremendous amount of stagnation
