In Breaking Bad, even though Walter White’s MÉTH recipe is mentioned in fragments throughout Breaking Bad, it was intentionally designed to be incomplete INCOMPLETE and scientifically INACCURATE.
The writers worked closely with science advisors to ensure that, while the dialogue sounded authentic, it could never be reverse-engineered into a real, functional method.
Creator Vince Gilligan has stated that this was a conscious ethical decision, meant to prevent the show from becoming an instructional guide for illegal dr*g production.
Additionally, real methamphetamine, no matter how pure, is not blue. High-purity m3th is typically clear or white, and the blue color was invented purely as a visual storytelling device to make Walt’s product instantly recognizable and mythic.
Ironically, after the show became popular, law enforcement agencies reported occasional instances of real m3th in the Albuquerque area being dyed blue, seemingly as a marketing gimmick or homage to the series.
Gilligan later described this as both disturbing and surreal, reinforcing why the production had been so careful to fictionalize the chemistry: Breaking Bad was meant to explore consequences, not provide a blueprint.
@JasonPaulMosher@forallcurious for this to work you'd have to look at time as a word describing something, and then define what it is describing at the most fundamental level
not microscopic or macro, more having the simplest words possible, like the change between at least two points, points being anything
🚨: Physicists "turn back time" by returning the state of a quantum computer a fraction of a second into the past, possibly proving the second law of thermodynamics can be violated.
@Nasirlovesball@TheNihilityX@_ema_nuel@SymplyTonbra what's the point of responding when you don't respond to the continuation, that implies you didn't read it, which cuts off a completed argument making a response pointless
@MirraFaye@TheNihilityX@_ema_nuel@SymplyTonbra But that can go for any element, there's just things that they can do that other ones can't. I'm saying aang is more skilled and efficient with his airbending than toph is with her earth bending whether it be in combat or just overall casual use.
In Batman Returns, Michelle Pfeiffer literally put the bird on her mouth in this scene.
There was no CGI. Bird wasn’t sedated neither.
Tim Burton said:
"I don't think I've ever been so impressed in my life. She had a live bird in her mouth while the camera was rolling.”
@Nasirlovesball@TheNihilityX@_ema_nuel@SymplyTonbra bumi compared to toph is mainly brute power, he's got insane skill but it's pretty low compared to tophs technical skills, and on the other end toph has almost no power compared to bumi
but she's 12, although he's like 110 I think he managed to improve his power using experience
@Nasirlovesball@TheNihilityX@_ema_nuel@SymplyTonbra I think that makes the comparison worse for aang, lots of things he does with airbending isn't so much skill as it's something no other element can replicate, he's definitely a master but toph managed things even earthbending couldn't

@Sathclark@reelrorymercury@Animex_Tweet also sorry you had to interact with someone so disengenous
I love gate, but it's definitely turn your brain off and enjoy, there is no nuance, it does do technical stuff but it's basically Japan stroking the ego of the army they don't have and trying to sell it
fun show tho
@Sathclark@reelrorymercury@Animex_Tweet blocked, so this is for them
"this establishes you are a troll who didn't watch much just because they wanted to hate it
your point gets refuted so you turn into a peice of shit
way to refute your own argument by being the one who made it and outing yourself
disengenous prick"
@reelrorymercury@Sathclark@Animex_Tweet you really don't want to see a tear down of gate then, it is not a show to watch with your brain on, and the luck stat has done something multiple times
hating a show does not mean you need to spread disinformation, especially as it's likely that you didn't watch S2 or S3 then
@MirraFaye@Sathclark@Animex_Tweet I'm actually spot on, he constantly gets shit on and the "Luck" stat literally does not help him being stuck with a disfunctional fucking group that always has it out for him
it's just not engaging.
@reelrorymercury@Sathclark@Animex_Tweet I like gate but there is no world where something so god damn generic is better than konosuba
and your summary is both inverted and lacking nuance
he's so lucky he gets into bad situation that end up saving the world because he's in it
only reason they end badly for him is aqua
@Sathclark@Animex_Tweet I enjoyed Gate, it kept my attention and made me stay interested compared to sleepy konoshitba
you can like what you like, just know you like shit
@Nerdcognito success will make it less problematic, but if rolling won't make a difference just interrupt them before they roll but after they chose to act
@Nerdcognito I'd just establish when true success versus partial, true success means the intended outcome can happen, partial just means SOMETHING positive CAN happen, success is never truely impossible, it just may not be what you wanted, now if it's only a negative outcome -continued
@IllyasvielDvonE@momohana3939@Palade_Arc@Pirat_Nation I'm guessing this was caused by language barrier and ai translation failing us
ai translation is better than base program translation as it gets some nuance, but it's still worse than human, and I'm guessing that's where the misunderstanding came in
cause response was confusing
@MirraFaye@momohana3939@Palade_Arc@Pirat_Nation А разве не самый важный момент не основывается на сказанном тобой. И на политических мненинях и на прочих. То есть на объективном личном, основанном на внешних факторах. Друзья, телевизор, родители, комментарий в интернете
Former Japanese television presenter and YouTuber Kanon Aoki has warned that X’s automatic translation tool is damaging Japan’s international reputation as a polite and harmonious society.
She explains that the feature now exposes blunt or negative online comments from some Japanese users to global audiences, revealing opinions on topics like tourism and cultural norms that were previously hidden by language barriers.
Via @FujiNews_
@momohana3939@Palade_Arc@Pirat_Nation there's a problem with this sentiment, and that has to do with representation and language barrier, more often most can't afford to actually go to Japan and don't speak Japanese, so the only exposure is in media of Japan and English sub/dub media from japan
translation fixes this
@Teslimatttt decber has it easy, just be genuinely nice to him and hang out being friends, now he's no longer evil so technically you've beaten him
now if you have to actually beat his ass, your doomed, he's surprisingly good at hand to hand ect
@postapocryphal@petarsaur@JasonSt44940936@Goldstatetimes@First_alphas@dnwiebe they did also establish that she constantly had issues paying rent barely squeezing by and a few times had to get help from others, whereas Sheldon and Leonard didn't NEED to split the rent but did so to have extra disposable income, especially Sheldon who hoarded money
Nobody thought it was weird in the big bang theory that Penny; a waitress, was able to afford rent in a building where two physicists with PHDs were roommates just to split rent?
@AphrahAshe@OzgurCreativity@GrampsToolshed wouldnt it require true ressurections though, as the body is effectively gone, or is it true ressurection that requires no peice of the original and ressurection only requires part of the original and revivify requires the body to be whole
@OzgurCreativity@GrampsToolshed 5e once again has scrubbed out context in its rules writing, but in 3.5e it specifically says you can Resurrect the dust left by Disintegrate since it counts as being part of a dead creature. It has also been processed, so there's nothing stopping you Resurrecting leather.
@ShegunTweets If Big Bang come from nothing
Then How does it turn Nothing into something?
It is impossible to turn nothing into something without Something else to turn it into something
You can't turn 0 into 1 by it own
You need +1 to turn 0 into 1
billy asked sheldon to prove that zero exists, and when he tried he kept contradicting his own statements. so he went to two of his professors, and they ended up realizing they couldn’t prove it either
