      too stupid to use google

      Ack. You made me remember some incredibly dumb tv ads from the 1970s I saw as a kid. There would be a untrustworthy pitchman saying something like “Chopping up vegetables takes time and leads to mess… Here’s the Veg-O-Matic Quik Chopper available now at the low, low price of $9.99…” I was just a dumb kid but even I could see it was a scam. Why spend ~$59 (in today’s dollars) on what was probably worse than a knife that might even quickly break? That’s crazy. Just use a knife.

        Specific to a lot of those devices, they’re often used by people with weakness or disability. In effect idiots being separated from their money subsidizes assistive devices.

      Don’t rigidly sealed containers make explosives stronger?

      Like a pile of gunpowder is a smoke machine, a pile of gunpowder in a can is a grenade, right? lmfao

        Only if the explosive has enough force to actually rupture the container. Putting gunpowder in a pipe works because the pipe lets the energy build up and then release in a single catastrophic burst. If the container is too strong for your explosion to break, you just contained the explosion. I have no idea if whatever he used would have actually caused much more damage in a regular car, though; my understanding was that it was mostly fireworks, which just don’t have that much force (because they’re not destructive devices).

        No, it’s the opposite. That’s why hand grenades are famously harmless.

        Depends on the stuff, but its not rigididy of container but how closely the stuff is packed together.

        The closer the stuff is packed together, the faster the chemical reaction. This is countered if the strength of the container must be very high to keep the stuff packed where the reaction will happen quickly and release all the energy at once but not have enough energy to effectively break out of the container.

    Did he wear Nike shoes and drink Evian water too? Doesn’t everyone use chatgpt for everything anymore? Nobody ever pointed out that probably every serial killer and murderer in the past 20 years has probably used Google to either help plan their murder or try to get away with it.

    Not that I condone boiling the oceans to do horrible shit but I don’t know that the real issue is ChatGPT or any other AI assistant thing… the real problem is people being this desperate and/or mentally ill.

    He used a website cliffs notes to sumerize many websites faster. Such a “game changer” but really how more can the police state leverage funds over tech companies. Sorry you need to turn of your tracker blockers to use search.

    Did he use Chat GPT for the off the wall idea of mixing liquid and solid explosives too? No one could have thought of that! /s for the fedposting among-drip
