  • By utilizing the Choose 2 combo, the total cost (assuming same delivery cost and adjusted tax) would be about $25 dollars including a 20% tip (based on total and not subtotal, as in the picture). However, that would include a medium pizza instead of a small pizza.

    It's not a massive difference. It is definitely a meaningful difference, but it's still pretty costly for 2 meals worth of food.

  • Lol... I have never heard of this before. I think it would help halfway, but it won't induce much stirring inside of the can, which is more important than just throwing more cold molecules of water at it.

  • The main reason spinning a can works is because it induces convection inside and outside of the can, which contributes to more collisions and better distributions of collisions. If the warmest soda is in the middle of the can, the cold molecules near the can walls will reach a temperature similar to the ice bath and thud the rate at which heat is transferred becomes stunted.

    For lettuce, you'd have better luck finding a way to pass cold water between the leaves, much like having fins on a heatsink (surface area).

  • Sorry, saturation is not the right word to describe it. I was thinking of the ice/water analogy and I mistakenly applied it to my heatsink analogy.

    The correct limit to the heatsink analogy would a function of the thermal dissipation of the heatsink (material, surface area, thermal resistance) and the qualities of the surrounding fluid (ambient temp, flow, etc). Honestly, my comparison between the ice/water example and heatsinks is not good. It is only appropriate in reference to the "molecular collisions" concept I mentioned before.

  • By spinning the can in ice water, it increases the rate of transfer of heat energy from the drink in the can, to the can itself, to the ice water. It's like how stirring the ice in a cup of not-cold water will melt the ice / cool the water faster.

    At a molecular level, you would see an increase in the number of collisions between ice molecules and liquid molecules. The collisions must occur for heat transfer to happen, so more collisions = more cooling. It is also the same reason why a heatsink can draw more heat from a processor when a fan blows air over it (until the air is saturated with heat).

  • I think as the game progresses, you get to see why Astarion is so eager to act in his own interests. However, his backstory really only justifies half of his refusal to help people. The other half of his whining feels antithetical to his own situation, but perhaps that's just because he doesn't fully acknowledge his newfound freedoms until Act 2.

  • Yes, the box that contains "Shirt"

    Fun fact, the geographic center of the contiguous states is very near the center of the top edge of Kansas. Including Hawaii and Alaksa, the geopraphic center shifts to the top left corner of South Dakota, just east of where Montana and Wyoming meet.
