Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

...as in a polyhedron with its sides numbered, commonly used in tabletop games or games of chance. Singular of "dice".

I don't think it's any better than the original Misfits track. But I gotta give 'em credit for introducing me to Merciful Fate, Budgie, Diamond Head, and a couple others.

Should add some mercury on the bottom, for the bolt to float on top of.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago (1 children)

TIL, ping pong balls, soda caps, beads, cherry tomatoes, and bolts are liquids.

Pride month forbidden cocktail?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I just did that last week for my son (he found it in a science book). The dish soap and water slowly mixed together into a single layer.

The "DIE" feels a bit threatening

And isn't it supposed to be "dye"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

No the right side is objects. It's a die (the 3 sides is showing in the milk).

The steel (and everything else) would float on top. I'm also interested where bromine would lie

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Is that curdled milk? Cause the liquid dish soap I am buying is definitely denser than milk.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Ngl: this looks like something got mixed up.

  • Vegetable Oils is clear? Never seen that in my life. Must be water
  • Water is a strong green? Looks more like Dish Soap to me.
  • Dish Soap is yellow? That looks like vegetable oil
[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago

Why should oil not be clear, almost colorless?

The oil has to be above the water.

Dish soap comes in any color. Water can be colored any way.

We know which one is milk. We know that dish soap is denser than water. We know oil is less dense than all of those. Does not leave at lot of wiggle room.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I'm guessing the water is dyed to make it visibly seperate

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I've seen yellow dish soap in my local stores

Do you us'ians not get yellow coloured dish soap

Edit:

Th eonly clear oil I've seen that can be iced for cooking is coconut oil

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I prefer this versionBTW

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Weird, my uncle's lucky dice keep sinking past the milk.
