Devil: I must say I am a big fan

there is always a relevant xkcd, it is almost like rule 34

When someone asks me what is love next time - i show them this - find someone who will wear dinosaur costumes with you and is happy

This picture definitely says more than 1000 words

One thing that would quickly start to happen is a lot of the smaller countries would either be forcefully taken over or be quieted down. Most countries have neighbours they do not share good relations with - and with nuclear armament - bigger of 2 could easily pose nuclear threat and have a much bigger say in their arguments. This could mean taking over contested/disputed lands or some kind of minearl deals being forcefully signed. Soon the total world country count would start to decrease purely because of this (annd would actually accelerate until a point where most countries would form coallitions with some nuclear power and sum total of power on both (or all sides in general) be roughly comparable such that no one poses a greater threat to another and not have an equal threat back at them.

Do not overthink simple things - one spends a lot of time finding answers to things they were already sitting upon. If you are not happy with who you are today - then try to find what is it that makes you unhappy, and try to fix it, that is, if it is something fixable. Somethings can not be fixed, and sometimes are better left as is, or sometimes, you can learn to embrace them.

Particularly for electric cars - you have very inflamable lithium batteris, which when spiked very hard (by something sharp), so multiple layers short circuit and well short circuits leads to fire. But batteries are at the bottom of the body, with few easily exposed areas (otherwise they would be at risk of explosions all time). I do not know what people are doing exactly, but you can use a crowbar like thing to hit the beneath posterior, until you expose the battery, and then 1 or 2 hits can do it, or you can skip this and use a smaller conventional explosive.

I would like to add this - I do not condone arson. Even if anyone wants to protest - this is not the way to do it, unless you burn your own stuff, then you are only harming environment. What i wrote is purely for educational purposes.

well you can try to look it up - slow acting poisons in minecraft.

on a more serious note, as others have noted heavy metal poisoning like mercury or lead.

I have another one - sulphur. Readiy available throughout ancient times, and non-toxic by itself (S8 form that is). But many of it's compounds are toxic in varying degree. You can look its wiki page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur) for some commonly available toxic salts, but I also have some ideas to incorporate in story - burning of sulfur (in incomplete form producing SO2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide). You can incorporate it very easily (someone tampered someone elses fireplace or incense sticks if we also want to hide any wierdities with flame). By itself it iis not very toxic, almost odorless, and not a strong color. It has existed even in food stored for long time due to degradation of sulfur containg organic compounds, wiki page also lists that wine this (another potential vector to supply this). When in body, it can produce H2SO3 (sulphurous acid) and by inhaling/ingesting small amounts for long time - it will gradually destroy alveoli/stomach inner lining and liver. Sulfur by itself is very cheap (you can find ores in a lot of places around the world, relatively easy to mine, also found near volcanic places), humans have used it in trying to make medicine out of it, and it has huge amount of history in alchemy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alchemical_symbol, https://www.thoughtco.com/tria-prima-three-primes-of-alchemy-603699). In fact, since it is present in humans naturally, and msot organic matter for that matter - small amount of sulfur being present in someones' reports will not raise a special eye, and they would just be recommended to not eat food that is traditionally know to have much sulfur (for example garlics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allyl_isothiocyanate). Garlic extract can also be used to deliver large amount of isothiocynate, but this would be a seperate method of poisoning all together - it is much more lethal, so not very slow acting, but one can keep giving a dose of this below lethal dose to keep damaging liver, and a final blow sometime.

I hope you find this helpful, and I hope no villagers in minecraft are killed by this.

You can make "khichdi" - It is a Indian dish, but not really, it is more of a procedure - basically get anything you have (rice, pulses, any other grain, just see if they are too hard, give a wash before, and let them soak for some time), add vegies(almost anything works, my favorites are potatoes, onions, tomoto, carrots, basically whatever is available in season), add spices to taste (I mostly just add salt and pepper, but anything is fine, just add a bit more, since all stuff previously added in a taste profile sense is bland) - then cook in pressure cooker (pressure cooker is not necessary, just accelerates cooking). Depending on how much you put - this can serve you many servings. If after cooking, it is dry for you, either have it with curd or youghurt if you want something cooloing, or just add a bit of vegetable broth and warm it up. Just store it well. It is cheap, not necessarily very nutritious (it is mostly carbs, fibre, and plant protien, which is not bad, but could be better). It is easy - no culinary skills required other than knowing how to wash and cut stuff, and operating your pot.

they were likely trying to to say Oof, though not sure

yes, but it is likely going to be NaBrO3, Br is very large, and for Br, +1 is not very stable compared to +5 (most likely with +1, we will have disproportionation reaction)

my initial guess would be that it is not stable (very likely we are going to have phase seperation, considering the size difference of atoms, but not sre)

It is really expensive. I understand economies of scale, but they are even more expensive than framework, who are already more expensive than most other brands. I understand that they don't have enough volume to ship that manufacturers willl give them better deals, but at this price point, and for what performance it is offereing, one could potentially buy 2 or 3 non repairable laptops, and they will collectively last almost just as long or more. I understand this method is worse in terms of sustainability but not everyone has that much room while buying

we need more people studying particle physics in free time

is it too late for me to "teknikally - at trains de Broglie wavelength, the decoherence length is probably of the order of size of proton or maybe even less, so actually, the system became deterministic, pretty much as soon as trains started moving, and our lever pulling can only change the results between the (no certain death) and (certain death), and expectatition value of death is now just classical addition of probablities of these added (and not the wave additions) and so, non of the interpretations are required"

let me ask you, you either would be a "barely undergrad" or a "post doc" and nothing between, so who are you - (and no, a superposition of those 2 is not allowed)

I see, you beleive in drowning your plants once in a fortnight, and abbsolutely forgetting for the rest of time. I have heard it helps the roots get deeper.

I am going to make a guess here, but I think humans might not even require this, we are farely unique (not unique per se, but it is rare i think (just primate family)) in our height class, higher than most quadraped stuff, but not high enough to be of the size of trees, so most noise either comes from above us, or below us, or at same height as us, and mostly heights coming from our own height usually would not be scary. And at small enough distances, we could easily tell source of noise from above or below (purely by being practised to know what source could produce what intensity at what distance) and at a longer distance where the difference would be small (relative to each other) we as may as well consider them same and treeat them same. All hypothesising, but I would guess we would loose the need quickly enough, considering tilting would mess up with our usuall visual processing, which we do much better, it would not be useful to hurt our better skill for something not useful
