      @@TheSumOfAnIdeod I wasn't very liked in high school but my buddy was. At a variety show in front of the whole school, me and my buddy did a stand up routine. It was going pretty well. I wanted him to tell all ugly joke about me because I wanted to test how much people hated me. He said the joke with the punchline of me being ugly and the entire school cheered. We had to wait before the stand up could continue.
      I didn't really help myself tho. I had long hair, didn't really dress nice, had bad posture, was lanky. Definitely looked and acted like a beta.
      When I grew into my frame (in college), things were allot easier with women.

    on the 'hwacha myth', IIRC an original Hwacha was just more of a rocket propelled arrow rather than an explosive arrow.
    But on the explosive part of this version: most grenades tend to be made in a way that they throw out shrapnel, and it's mostly the shrapnel that does the damage rather than the explosion. IIRC the koreans used paper. But I think that clay tubes (or even wood) to carry the black powder would be a lot better in (shorter ranged) explosive versions. Those clay tubes could serve as both the 'rocket' part as well as the 'shrapnel' part. In which case this weapons seems more than plausible to be pretty damn dangerous. Just shower the battlefield with explosive arrows, even if some of them don't explode, the arrows and amount of clay shrapnel/splinters flying around might kill a good amount of enemies, but I think the biggest benefit would be the added (non lethal) damage. An enemy with a leg or arm wound from the shrapnel, would be a lot easier to defeat.

  • @psychotimo
    @psychotimo 5 місяців тому +5

    for the 'beer goggles' myth, IMO it's semi true. But really depends on what 'type of drunk' you are. some people get a bit more aggressive, others get very touchy, others get very emotional,.... So stands to reason that some people would f*ck a cardboard box while drunk, whereas others might be more likely to punch a supermodel rather than try to woo them while drunk xP
    also, people rating has some inherent issues, like re-rating the same people causes bias( simply cause you've seen them before), and rating different people that 'averaged to the same score' also causes a skew due to personal preferences not necesarily matching the 'comparably attractive group of images'.
    Let's imagine that for the 'comparably attractive groups' there might have been no apparant bias for blondes/brunettes/.... whereas let's say Jamie might be a sucker for blondes, the comparable groups might not have the exact same amount of blondes causing a skew in the results. (even if larger things like hair color are kept into account, there's so many details that might be very relevant to some people but not to others. someone might be a sucker for a specific combination of hair/eye colors with things like freckles, hairstyle, type of nose, type of...)
    Just saying that this is an inherently hard one to check, So due to the subjectivity of what different people find attractive you'd need massive groups of subjects to even begin making a somewhat representative and very generalized conclusion.

      @@theswissmiss69 - Some folks get confused by the difference between mitigation and modification, weather mitigation is a real thing that happens - for example Calgary Canada uses cloud seeding to mitigate(reduce) destructive hail storms - but modification to create weather systems is fantasy that has failed in every experimental attempt as the atmosphere is just too dynamic to effectively control.
      The Mythbusters themselves had enough trouble trying to control all the variables in far simpler experiments to get them to work, the atmosphere is insanely complex and variable and only fools would think it can be that well controlled and Jamie isn't a fool - pick a spot on earth and choose 3 different altitudes above that single spot and the conditions can be drastically different for each altitude.
      Also their lack of understanding of basic atmospheric physics means they think every cloud and contrail is "proof" of their fantasy.

      Weather control has even been weaponized during the Vietnam war to prolong and intensify the rain season's destruction but as soon as the operation ended, the climate remained as it is.

Other wise if it is just hot/cold air meeting, that creates condensation. Then you will have a very tough time explaining why fighter jet's doesn't produce them. Water simply doesn't condense from just hot meeting cold. It demands, DEMANDS a physical particle, to where condensation can actually condensate around. This is also known as Condensation nuclei. In nature it can be every thing from dust from the deserts or salt from the sea. But the long white line we see, fanning out during the day, is 100% an artificially introduced amount of particles.
