TIMEframe is a free exploration game made in Unity, where ten seconds have been stretched out into ten minutes. Check it out here. You can download it or play in the Unity web player.

This is the reason indie games are so amazing. It's the most relaxing, dramatic, and emotional game I've played. Naturally your mileage may vary, but go into it blind, without reading any spoilers. It's well worth it.

Sigh. You know why I only linked articles that refuted your argument? Because I couldn't find any that actually supported it.

Your situation is entirely anecdotal, like you say, "Let's say for me". There's no study behind it, and there's nothing you prove you actually did what you're saying besides your own memory and desire to prove yourself right. That's not good enough for most of us. Also, eating more chicken, eggs, and whey protein isn't an untouched diet. That is, in fact, a fairly healthy bump in protein and fats for what you were doing. And you're surprised that you didn't get ripped from playing soccer? Welcome to only working certain muscles and playing sports. As for calories burned, playing soccer isn't the same as running constantly and consistently.


And your last statement is an outright lie. Running has the same after burn effect as lifting. It doesn't matter what you do, if your body is recovering from it, it's burning calories. As far as I can tell, there's little difference between running and lifting when it comes to after burn. Exactly how many calories are burned during recovery depends on the intensity of the workout, and any workout can be more intense.

Also funny, that marksdailyapple(one of my fav sites btw ) later in article shows how much benefit you gain from large muscle mass.

This has nothing to do what we're talking about, and I've mentioned several times that weight lifting is good for you. Just because I'm saying jogging burns more calories than weight lifting doesn't mean I'm against being well-muscled, and I'm well aware that having muscle gives you a lot of health benefits. However, in this conversation, we're specifically talking about calories burned.

I'm assuming that they checked the gun before pulling the trigger. Even then, it's a stupid game.

I'd say if you were put in a position where you were forced to play Russian Roulette, you shoot the guy trying to force you. Keep pulling the trigger and eventually the bullet will fire, since revolvers use a mechanical rotation rather than using the shot to rechamber a round.

But yeah. Never point a gun at something you don't want to destroy. Especially a revolver, since those tend to be higher calibers than most guns. There's pretty much no way you'd survive that, and even if you did you'd probably get brain damage. The only way out I see is glancing the bullet off your skull, but that's such a crapshot that it's not even worth considering.

I know there's a primitive sort of refrigerator that relies on evaporation to create its cooling. It's made of two pots, the smaller one inside the larger one, with the space between filled with sand and water. As the water evaporates, it creates a cooling effect by means of science.

Not sure how low the temperatures get, but it's the best form of primitive cooling I've heard of. It's called a Zeer. It's mostly used in Africa.


Oh, and maybe we could do refrigeration trucks. Like, find an ice-cream truck and use that to keep your stuff cold at the cost of a much higher fuel usage.

Well, technically, heat building up in a small area and generating a large amount of pressure that causes its container to rupture can cause an explosion. So anything that burns in an enclosed container can explode.

In real life, it wouldn't be the gas pump exploding. It would be the cistern of gas beneath it.

There's a reason UI and menu screens get screen time when game/program makers show off videos of their games. Those things are rough to do, and they take ages to do properly.

From the page you linked:

(Most important) As of version 1.1, covering up a block requires a reload to truly remove fluids. (This is extremely serious when dealing with lava.)
Reloading a world will end any infinite flows.

...

Lava is difficult to get rid of. The only ways to eradicate it are by bringing it into contact with water so that it becomes obsidian, dropping sand (or silt) into it to blot it out, or using the Dirt Rod to force dirt into it. Of these, the Dirt Rod is probably the easiest and quickest, due to the bug detailed on the Dirt Rod page.
