Edging the demon core with a screwdriver is like lighting a match to get a better look at a stick of dynamite. It's embarrassing that it got two people this way.

Though I've never done so with a brick before.. or screwdriver for that matter..

brick your pipi

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 month ago

According to some tellings it was the only way to get the needed measurements. They could have at least added a bit of shielding, though.

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 month ago

It absolutely wasn't. There are things as proper spacers they could've used, and shielding of course. This was laziness and a macho showing off. To his and his colleagues detriment

...whilst standing in the sticky remains of the person who'd been juggling the dynamite 9 months earlier.

Gimme that Boykisser keychain model RIGHT NOW!!

[-] half_built_pyramids@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Don't see layer lines on the keychain. Maybe vape smoother. Nice detail if it was a print.

"Fuckup" might be a neutral point of view, here.

[-] praise_idleness@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

No need for profanity. booboo sounds fitting.

[-] nuke@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

Sir my client pleads oopsy daisy

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

An oopsie, if you will

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Few events have been more deserving of profanity.

[-] don@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

I’m a simple person. I see a dragon’s tail, I put on my cowboy boots and tickle it.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 1 month ago

What are the boots for? 🤨

These Boots Are Made For Walkin'

And that's just what I'll do

Anecdotally at least, Louis Slotin (one of the scientists associated with the demon core) had a penchant for wearing jeans and cowboy boots.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
