I personally find bidens response deliberate, and intriguing.

He made no explanations, and was very short and said "no".

And that could sometimes means he is deliberately answering the specific question precisely.

Iow, it could be possible the US is sending new f-16 to Poland and Poland is sending old ones to Ukraine, for example. I'm not saying that I think this is happening, but sometimes precise short answers can be for reasons like that.

If you have some water and it touches something very hot, the water can't exceed 100C, because as soon as it does, it becomes steam. But the steam can be crazy hot. So with enough temperature difference, if you plunge something crazy hot into water, the vapour won't instantly escape, and the heat transfer could be very rapid creating larger pockets of really hot steam, only the outside of which would be cooled by the water. So, the steam can be much hotter. But the water must stay at 100C in order to be water.

Steam, should always be hotter than 100C, which is why it converted to steam. It's essentially water that is hotter than 100C at 1 ATM, by definition. But usually it would only be a little bit hotter in conventional use. 300C seems like a lot though. Idk anything about reactors, but I think they plunge massive insanely hot rods into water?

Semantics. We can argue that forever. I think it does. If you enjoy the look of gore or whatever, then that's visually appealing to you.

Feel free to think differently. I will not discuss this further. Goodbye.

It kind of depends, because some disgusting things can have artistic appeal, but if it's something unattractive, bland, and uninteresting, no matter how good the artwork is, it won't really gain much attention. Unless you do something clever to make something bland appear interesting. Like the artist that makes soft looking pillows out of stone.

The romanticizing part is stupid. I understand they mean well. And I really get that. But if people feel shy to come clean with their struggles, they might not get the help they need.

I'm fine with criminalizing encouraging people to harm themselves. But posting pictures of your own self harm, I don't think ought to be criminalized.

Also, teenagers that play lots of video games might really be having lots of fun. And those that don't, might be studying hard.

And on 10-15 years, the gamers might still be gaming, and they'll be less well off, and have less of a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment, and those that didn't game so much, will be happier.
