(Thread) In the first What If? book, I answered a question about cooking a steak by dropping it from space. At one point, I commented—jokingly!—that if anyone put a steak in a hypersonic wind tunnel to gather better data, I’d love to see the video.
Well, I have good news.

the most unrealistic part of star trek is how every species seems to have agreed on which ship to ship video chat to use
1/ Unpopular opinion: multiplayer Minecraft is a bad game for children and you should discourage your kids from playing it. As an open world game it requires its players to collaborate to create a shared experience.
3/ I’ve seen similar behavior in groups of kids playing D&D for the first time. But there griefing is harder if the DM chooses to make it so.
