No, my solution would be to vacate the area post haste. I was just referring to meco03211’s posting in which he wrote

If you took the explosive out of a grenade, put it in a metal pot with the lid welded on, and detonated, you’d just have a mangled pot.

Given your theory that the type of explosive used makes all the difference, I would definitely watch a Mythbusters episode about that (if there was one). 😉

With sufficient reading comprehension you (and the five people upvoting your posting) would have noticed that nobody is claiming a grenade in a pot would be harmless. The claim was about removing the explosive from the grenade and detonating that inside the pot.

While I have no evidence to support that claim I have seen someone putting live ammunition in a pot and making it cook off. That experiment clearly showed that cartridges are only really dangerous when used in a firearm. I expect the physics to be very much the same here.

Me, too, and I find it offputting when someone else does it. 😄

No but you have bigger problems than the two you mentioned. There is so much injustice baked into the system that you will never get rid of it without some kind of revolution.

Maybe a velvet revolution is possible but I firmly believe it is impossible to fix the U.S. through gradual change.

I sometimes call it my “healing hands” when a user swears up and down that they did everything I told them to but the problem persists. Until I demonstrate it personally and voilá, the problem is gone.

Naturalement, cher ami.

In all earnest, rapprochement between Germany and France was one of the greatest things to happen in European history.

My A25 only goes 90° nowadays, it seems.

That’s the catch, though. You cannot change people. Gotta work with what you got.

Certainly better than being burned out and not wanting to live any more. Having been there, I’m happy that the option exists. Even though I’ve had to reduce my living standards a little bit.

Germany.

Friedrich Merz disliked this.

Joke’s on them. I’m on a three day work week already.

Just to bring everyone up to speed, the current interpretation of the 2nd Amendment is that the whole spiel about a militia is basically irrelevant. Source: Supreme Court decision in DC v. Heller (2008).

Love it or hate it, them’s the facts. That said, plenty of other decisions have been overturned at a later date. Like the one that made black people less than equal to whites in Dredd Scott v. Sanford or the endorsement of segregation in Plessy v. Ferguson. So things might change at some point.

Let me guess, it’s Edison and anything?

Because nobody is stopping them.

And *number.

I got really into Flopsy’s Dream and their debut album Pleasant Pudding last summer.

It’s the secondary project of Tom Davies, a Geoguessr YouTuber I’ve been following for years. Soft, laid-back rock that hit the spot just right for me.

Thank you for the explanation. For some reason, your edit didn’t show up for me at first but now I can see it.

In my opinion there are still way too many people on X, Germans as well as others.

And that relates to Germans on Lemmy how exactly?

I prefer a splodge of mustard in my potato salad. And I second the suggestion of adding garlic to most everything, including veggie soup.
