TIL: post things you learned today.

If you try to put out a chip pan fire with water, the water, which is denser than oil, sinks to the bottom of the pot and boils instantly, vaporizing and rising out of the pan, simultaneously lifting the burning oil out of the pot and causing the oil that's not on fire to combust, forming a massive growing fireball that will engulf your entire kitchen.

Damn! I'll have to remember that if ever I come across someone doing that.

I found about a influenza drug called Relenza, it comes in a blister pack of four and is inhaled with disk-haler.

MDMA is an experimental treatment for PTSD.

Well they needed some power before electricity happened, I suppose this was also before anesthetics became a thing.

Captain James F. Luce
He was in charge of the SS Arctic, which sank in 1854. He literally went down with his ship, holding onto his 11-year-old son at the time. The two of them resurfaced, but a piece of the ship's paddle-box surfaced after them, hitting the son with enough force to kill him instantly. The captain survived, using the same paddle-box as a temporary raft, and was rescued two days later.

I don't know whether to hate the captain for letting his son go in a lifeboat or not but that's just sad.

TIL Dynastia is capable of expressing empathy

That rules out my arm chair diagnosis that he's a sociopath, then.

Today I learned the various methods that noblemen and kings used to store ice- by using underground chambers which keep them frozen (I'm aware of simplifying it) so that in the summer months they can open a cold one with the boys.
