# fast marlin what about the times when it didnt though

I never said to myself that I'm gonna succeed only that I'm gonna try so any outcome is within my expected range of results failure is a part of the creative process
I just try in another way there are always more ways to try

#

Does anybody else find it weird there are so little political assassinations

mild pelican
#

probably
there're enough political executions though

rugged perch
#

no political assassinations lately, just severe cases of "jumped out of a 10th floor window"

bronze lintel
#

That or polonium tea

mossy trail
#

Or novichok

#

But I mean like that's russia and like china north korea various authoritarian countries

#

Those are orchestrated by the government I meant like the alexander II or kennedy ones

#

Shinzo abe one is the only one I know in last decades

#

Also I just had the best worldbuilding idea ever: in an interspecies galactic war secret agents try to get to the homeworlds of opposing species to study the poisons and venoms to create bio weapons that work on that species because using pow's for experiments has been banned in that galaxy but not bio weapons

serene tulip
#

Assassination by means of direct warfare, major player to major player, is frequently a lose lose situation because it stops being who has the best army and starts being who has the best assassins/bodyguards.

#

it levels the playing field

#

Assassination by means of terrorism is challenging precisely because these people have survived the gauntlet to make it to the world power stage

#

E.G. why was thatcher not assassinated

#

Turns out that people who will drink wine from an unknown source don't make it to power

True

#

Just wanted to say the french revolution quote

fast marlin
#

which one dusa

#

conversation i had with my dad today
"what podcast are you listening to"
"oh its about the french revolution"
"which revolution"
"the second one- where they overthrew the monarchy. wait, no thats the first one they overthrew, no it's the third one then, not to be confused with the one that might happen in like a week"

muted smelt
#

Everyone was poor and starving and they were protesting on the streets. Then sheltered and clueless queen marie antoinette says if they dont have bread then let them eat cake.

Thats just a legend as theres no evidence she said that

fast marlin
#

theres also a legend she washed her face with a concoction made out of pidgeons

#

but apparently they mixed up grapes with pidgeons since they sound similar in some language

muted smelt
#

Lol today i learned ^

mild pelican
#

"if you are homeless, just buy a home"

muted smelt
#

I like to think marie antoinette was smarter than the cake quote suggests.
She was an austrian outsider and many people criticized her.

Her mother was one of the best diplomats of the time and she frequently exchanged letters witg and likely getting advice from an expert.

The quote was used to incite anger and she was an easy target

fast marlin
#

for sure

#

also she was pretty young then right?

muted smelt
#

She came to france when 14, by french revolution she's around 30s

#

Just had a very amazing awesome dream I want to go back to it and stay in it forever

#

(It was a world with magic and I had friends and was pretty)

#

Also from minor things it had an actually good mobile video game

#

Two even one was a spin off of the other tho

#

And the one that wasn't a spin off was a sequel/remake of another very old one also mobile and it was also in the dream but it wasn't that good

#

Also in one segment for some reason homelander was there?

#

Except he wasn't really evil

#

In that segment of the dream for some reason me and some other cool characters were in like a pool or sea and were mermaids

#

Also in another segment I was wandering around in some fields with like caves or something like that and some mage challenged me to a battle and we had a summoner battle I don't remember who won

#

Sad I only remember like 10% of the dream

muted smelt
#

It all really happened, in alternate timelines dusa

mossy trail
#

I really really really want to be in that timeline instead of this one

at least some facet of you

would you take that timeline away from that you?

Wouldn't it be nice if Russian Federation as a part of reparations for the war gave the historical region of Ingria autonomy :3

#

And UN or NATO or whatever would guarantee fair democracy and stuff :3 Ingria as a country would be epic and based and cultured and would really took off quickly

#

Saint Petersburg would become a capital once more

#

also wow I gotta study late russian empire and early ussr gotta be the most bonkers period in russian history

#

like from february revolution till january next year there was russian republic? I didn't know that
it was definitely the largest country to ever exist less than a year

#

and until 1923 there was a lot of different shards of russian empire and a lot of power instability

#

like was there even a civil war in history in a nation that big

mossy trail

there also was apparently an english civil war but I think it didn't affect the rest of the empire but I'm not sure idk anything about british history

#

yo wikipedia has a neat separate emoji for capital punishment in lists

we should all together as humanity make a long series of shows for all of humanity's history

# dry stratus I still struggle to grasp the concept of perestroika

Putting it simply, ussr economy was poor because state owns all the things. And there were corrupt officers pocketing stuff.

So president decided to implement perestroika. They allow private businesses to grow big, less govt ownership. More transparency etc.

It was very chaotic and end up soviet quitting being soviet

You may never know

Mfw just learned there was an explosion assassination yesterday just 1km from me

mossy trail
#

Some government agency people were opening a metal door a floor down just now
Apparently there's some government something behind the door like a storage maybe and it got stuck or something idk
And they had a very big circular saw very awesome saw but it's soo loud and the burnt metal stinks so bad

#

This is what should be in games instead of the usual long chainsaw

#

That one cuts wood this one cuts metal

Today it was supposed to be sign language class

I found it on internet apparently it's a gasoline powered angle grinder

#

I don't really go outside so unless there's a huge explosion in a nearby apartment I'm gonna be alright

#

I wonder how much tnt equivalent is needed to completely go through a 1m thick wall of concrete with rebar

muted smelt
#

Do you actually have 1m thick walls

warm cave
#

Wtf

#

Whats with americans having walls even a infant can punch trough?

muted smelt
#

If you're referring to us, we aren't americans dusa

Anyway, 1m is like, 10 times the thickness of brick walls so those infants must be built different

mossy trail
#

That's inbetween apartments tho the ones between rooms are built later and they're only like 30cm

mossy trail
#

I'm trying to find anything on how much explosive force is needed to penetrate 70cm of reinforced concrete and apparently a bunker buster configuration of the anti tank system panzerfaust 3 can only penetrate 24cm dusa

#

It can penetrate 70cm of armor so why aren't tanks made of concrete instead?

#

200g is how powerful the bomb yesterday was

#

Allegedly

serene tulip
#

ugh

#

why are you getting me on watch lists by asking so many questions

#

Honestly, given the propensity of engineers to want to blow stuff up and the interest of defense to build sufficient defenses from explosions I was expecting to find a much more well collected list of things

#

like a table in an engineering handbook: "If your enemy is using m shells build walls t thick"

mossy trail
serene tulip
#

I mean there's also a difference between "Destroy" and "Sufficiently damage to [kill everyone inside/knock the building down]

mossy trail
#

But also I realized that maybe it's not reinforced concrete and now I'm trying to find out from what they built houses in 1840s I mean like this specific house
At least it's easier to look for that stuff when you live in saint petersburg because most houses are very documented because various important people lived here and various famous architects build the houses

serene tulip
#

that actually would explain why the walls are a 70cm thick

#

thems some thick walls to be making out of poured concrete

mossy trail
#

Maybe they're brick walls or like very very well pressed together wood walls or something

serene tulip
#

brick also makes sence

#

see cinderblocks

mossy trail
#

Cinderblocks is very very soft ngl

serene tulip
#

but yeah, that building in the pictures is so destroyed that I can't sufficiently express it in words in this server, 64kg is probably overkill even if they were double the thickness

#

it only looks like it wasn't destroyed because it didn't have any weight in/on it

mossy trail
#

The explosion was very close to the wall tho

serene tulip
#

aye, but its still a Huge amount of TNT

I've obtained a 0.5L bottle of sriracha

I've finally found information about the walls of this house

#

It is in fact brick

#

Brick should be easier to blow up than reinforced concrete probably

mossy trail
#

Also fun facts about the house I live in that I found while searching for what are it's walls: the person that it was rebuilt for was a stabskapitän and had a street in this city named after him and had 6 kids from a ballerina who was a student of Didelot

muted smelt
#

Where do you go to find that

mossy trail
#

So Didelot to me is the teacher of the lover of the first owner of the house I live in

mossy trail
# muted smelt Where do you go to find that

Well first I just googled the address of my house and there's like an article or two about it and it says when it was built for who etc and then I googled the person who it was built for the stabskapitän and there is a wikipedia article well not about him but about his family and that it's a landmark building I got it from the same place where I got the walls material from I found a site that has not all but many buildings in saint petersburg registered and it lists legal things about them like carrying wall material and landmark status and when it was built etc

muted smelt
#

Ahh nice

mossy trail
#

And the house first was built in 1779 but in 1840 it was completely rebuilt so it's kinda the theseus ship problem

When roasting coffee green beans, there's a phase called first crack. It is when the coffee's moisture inside the beans evaporate and build up pressure. Eventually cracking the outside layer from its build up and the beans exploded. This usually happens when the coffee reaches around 180 to 190C. Protocol for roaster is to get a whiff of the aroma in this phase to get a sense of development for the coffee beans.

Basically, I wanted to smell the beans and one of them exploded under my nose dusa

#

at 190C

I thought the 24 next to the coffee blend was the blend batch number.

#

It was a small coffee.

bronze lintel
#

ah

#

I can see why it's 24 AUD

#

gesha is one of the most expensive variety out there

dry stratus
#

I had no idea 🥲

#

I'll look into it then

#

$71AU?!

bronze lintel
#

but generally, personally, 24 AUD is not too expensive

dry stratus
#

😳

#

Tbh that's the kind of price I'm expecting for the average cup of coffee in the 2030s

bronze lintel
#

lmao

#

so here's why it's expensive. Putting aside the gesha variety itself, the processing is what makes it even higher. Anaerobic process, you put the coffee cherry in a barrel of water, put yeast, close it up, and let it ferment. idk about thermoshock, haven't seen any processor that use that. Problem being, even if they're the same farm and seeds, fermentation would instead degrade the green coffee beans.

#

so you're looking around... 10-15% waste from that process

dry stratus
#

Ahhhh

#

And are coffee beans usually fermented? That sounds new

mossy trail
#

Because cold weapons have to have various conditions under which they are cold weapons

#

For knives it's like over 9 cm length thickness under something like 6 mm iirc etc

bronze lintel
#

yes, there are variety of process that essentially ferment the beans. The most common ones are Washed (which is not so fermented but also the cheapest), Honey (partial fermentation), and Natural.

#

Anaerobic jargon are relatively new and in booming

And also for an example an aristocrat has a lesser degree of быт present in life rather than a peasant

bucolic is a fun word people should use bucolic more

Urban people still have быт even they never ever go outside for the city

Also anything you don't do yourself or not for yourself and people you live with cannot be быт

mossy trail
fast marlin
#

it is right!

muted smelt
#

Is 'mundane' close enough

#

Well, one word isn't enough to describe it i guess.
"Everyday life of common folk"

mossy trail
# muted smelt Is 'mundane' close enough

Well again, if a helicopter out of nowhere crashed on your barn and you are fixing it that's not mundane but still быт
And going to work if you don't work for yourself is mundane but not быт
In most cases of use it is probably close tho

muted smelt
#

It seems the word is used to contrast social classes

mossy trail
#

Can't wait to live alone and feel safe and confident about existing

mossy trail
#

While a peasant's life is almost completely быт

#

So kinda yeah

#

Then again, a servant of said aristocrat if living in the house of said aristocrat would also have a very small amount of быт

#

Because the things you do not for yourself are not быт

# dry stratus Oh maybe my blend was honey fermented then

I'm just gonna make this clear. Honey process doesn't mean they doused the green coffee beans in honey. Instead, they pull out the green coffee bean out of its cherry but keep the mucilage on the green coffee beans. The term honey process used is because the mucilage looks like honey bouldy
