It wasn’t newer than the entire ship he was on, though, and he didn’t have that reaction to any of the other tech – including the insanely powerful warp engine that was likely even less tested and capable of destroying anything in a significant radius.
I’m not saying he was phobic, but he’s more cautious than anyone else in the scenes where this is emphasised, like it’s a character trait.
If there’s so much dislike for it, it must have got pretty far along its development, which means extensive animal testing. If that were happening when my dog was still alive and I had any contacts in such programmes, I’d at least strongly consider signing him up for late stage trials that might prolong his life by that much. And can you imagine the value of whatever company figures this out? I think most people would agree dogs don’t live long enough. That’s my hypothetical head cannon.
You were so fast. This community is becoming as fast as Reddit! 😆
Oh! This must be it.
Thanks!
Solved!
It doesn’t seem to fit with either of my tripods, but that helps narrow it down. Maybe I’m missing a piece?
Thank you, that gives me a direction to search.
Perhaps because if they did that, there’s a very high chance trump would nuke them. He’s been itching for a reason to use nukes since his first term, and that would give him the excuse he wants.
e: I think the fact I got 2 opposing comments (he’d do it without justification and he’d be stopped by the CoC even with justification) might be telling here. He’s a monkey with a machine gun, and who knows if justification would work on others in the chain of command? Perhaps they’d rather not risk that.
Thanks, this exactly. Each material has its own ideal product or method, but a light rub with WD-40 works on nearly anything (but not what you’re thinking – it’s never lube. It’s poisonous.).
It actually has interesting chemical properties.
That’s not really a bonus. WD-40 will likely also get you high in close quarters – it’s probably more expensive than weed, though, and likely kills more of your brain than is worth it.
I recommend a high THC, mushrooms, or LSD instead. Combustible inhalants are a worse high that will probably give you a headache and then cancer. No bueno.
More sticky children hacks, please. :)
That doesn’t always work. Some of these adhesives are stupidly sticky, and some leave all of their paper rather than giving up.
If it’s a weak adhesive, that method is fine. This tip is for strong or obnoxiously sticky adhesives, and especially on surfaces that don’t want to give up or that could be damaged easily.
I’m sorry, I answered your question from my inbox instead of in context in this thread, so I lost context.
I haven’t tried cooking oil, just WD-40. I’ll try cooking oil as you suggested.
Did they ever stop having accidents with them? Even in LDS they have problems. The transporter is really a plot device masquerading as a suicide machine.
