Each response is on an equilateral triangle face, so the die inside must be either a tetrahedron, octahedron, or a icosahedron (d4, d8 or d20). There are no other regular polyhedrons composed of equilateral triangles.

Doesn’t take too many attempts to see more than 4 answers, so it can’t be the tetrahedron. It might take a large number of attempts to get the 9th unique response, but if you look carefully you can sort of see the adjacent faces while the die settles. Not well enough to read, but well enough to get an idea of the angle between the faces. Too shallow to be an octahedron, so it must be a dodecahedron.

There are only 5 polyhedrons that can be made from regular polygons. They’re called the Platonic Solids.

Tetrahedron (triangle), cube (square), octahedron (triangle), dodecahedron (pentagon), icosahedron (triangle)

Get enough of a majority in congress that she can be impeached (and convicted). Not possible with a 51/50 split in the senate. It’d take damn near 67 dem senators. Maaaaaaybe they can get 1 or 2 Rs to flip but it’s a long shot.

In the theme song, the Spanish “Bob Esponja” goes way harder than “SpongeBob SquarePants”

Nah, it was good at being what it was supposed to be. Not every movie needs to be an artistic cinematic masterpiece.

Man, I knew fingerprint encryption was bad but that is nuts.

Tbf, even the “right” way to balance 7 tubes in 24 slots is a bit cursed of you don’t look at it as a superposition.

But you’ve got 3 tubes in an equilateral triangle and 2 pairs mirrored across the center, so we’re all good here.

If you read the text of the act, it really doesn’t do much of anything. Doesn’t expand the powers of the department of education or any law enforcement agency, just clarifies the definition of antisemitism used in existing laws about discrimination. The exact definition proposed is from the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance:

Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities.

Nothing involving criticism of the government of Israel. That said, they do offer a little bit of clarification on their website:

Manifestations might include the targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity. However, criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as antisemitic.

I really don’t see anything worth getting worked up about. This is about as standard, boring government as it gets.

Bassman1805,

I mean, this is a useful law for those concerned with the excessive force against pro-palestine protestors, because the definition it references specifically calls out criticism of Israel as a state not being antisemitism.

$9,000? Fucking seriously?

“The Catholic Church,” it told us, “teaches that masturbation is a grave moral disorder.”

Father Justin told another user that they could baptize their baby in Gatorade.

What a sequence of sentences.

Bassman1805,

Plus with very specialized fields you get the effect of “really great at this one thing and absolutely nothing else”.

If that One Thing ends up being worth a lot of money, these people often end up with a SUPER inflated sense of self importance…

He tried to not bring charges, but when he declared bankruptcy his creditors were basically able to force him to pursue debts owed to him regardless is what he actually wanted.

Antibiotics. Turned so many lethal wounds into minor cuts.

Bassman1805,

This is not how tax deductions for charitable donations work.

  1. You round up to the dollar for a 50c donation
  2. The business has 50c extra income
  3. They write off 50c as tax deductible
  4. They pay the exact same taxes whether or not you make a donation
Bassman1805,

Confidently incorrect.

Bassman1805,

Both you and the business can claim that as a tax deduction.

Please be the story of the congressfolk that legalized raw milk, celebrated by drinking raw milk, and all got sick as a result…

Fuck yeah.

A note on safety: don’t use porous rocks (and many rocks are more porous than you think) as sex toys! They’ll harbor bacteria and lead to an infection.
