[2006.11.07-11.54] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> I'd be too embarrassed for his targets,. [2006.11.07-11.54] Corvin@Nanvaent <imud_gossip> was hilarious tho [2006.11.07-11.55] Ninja@VargonMUD <imud_gossip> No memory leaks at run level 2...switching to run level 3 [2006.11.07-11.56] Ninja@VargonMUD <imud_gossip> speaking of memory leaks, morning, Duuk. [2006.11.07-11.56] <imud_gossip> Aerelus@Haven is about to leave to go see borat [2006.11.07-11.57] Bobby@Nanvaent <imud_gossip> a niiiice [2006.11.07-11.59] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> They released Borat in britishland?

[2006.11.07-12.00] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> or at least apple danish [2006.11.07-12.14] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> I keep hoping that the Sexy Losers guys will change his mind and update his site. [2006.11.07-12.36] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> squeezing the side when you re-cap a 2-liter bottle of soda will: 1) keep it carbonated longer, 2) make it go flat faster, or 3) make no noticeable difference [2006.11.07-12.37] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> 3) Make the bottle flatter. [2006.11.07-12.38] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> im more concerned with the effects on the contents of the bottle, not so much with the bottle itself [2006.11.07-12.40] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> it'll flatten the contents [2006.11.07-12.40] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> fizz factor is due to dissolved gas [2006.11.07-12.41] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> the close bottle prevents the gas from sublimating [2006.11.07-12.41] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> because of the pressure in side the bottle [2006.11.07-12.42] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> ie "the already sublimated gas has nowhere to go, and cant be displaced by new sublimated gas" [2006.11.07-12.43] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> by opening and squeezing, and closing, you provide dissolved gas the opportunity to sublimate, because the pressure in the container now allows it [2006.11.07-12.43] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> eventually the bottle will (if enough fizz is left) uncrumple, and you will have flatter soda because of it [2006.11.07-12.44] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> Helllllo, Crat! [2006.11.07-12.44] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> hiyas [2006.11.07-12.44] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> Shouldn't you be working or something? [2006.11.07-12.44] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> probably [2006.11.07-12.44] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> And did you go vote, you hippy? [2006.11.07-12.44] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> you? [2006.11.07-12.44] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> yes [2006.11.07-12.44] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> you? [2006.11.07-12.44] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> I called in dead. [2006.11.07-12.44] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> Of course I voted. [2006.11.07-12.45] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> it's nice doing it midmorning [2006.11.07-12.45] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> I voted to ban black people, keep dove hunting illegal, and voted almost entirely Republican. [2006.11.07-12.45] Elastica@Nanvaent <imud_gossip> dead people are only allowed to vote in the USA [2006.11.07-12.45] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> only a smattering of old people in the way [2006.11.07-12.45] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> I did vote for 1 Democrat though. [2006.11.07-12.46] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> niffy? [2006.11.07-12.46] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> If only I didn't live in an ugly gerrymandered House district. [2006.11.07-12.46] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> Since John Conyers is Satan. [2006.11.07-12.46] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> gerrymandering is the one thing both sides of the aisle can agree on [2006.11.07-12.46] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> fucking hosebags [2006.11.07-12.48] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> but... i thought splitting the population into two distinct political parties is the natural course of things [2006.11.07-12.49] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> filthy balkanist [2006.11.07-12.49] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> Plugh, you're a tool. [2006.11.07-12.49] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> as for the bottle, i wonder if you do NOT squeeze it, how much the gas would fill up before it actually affected the flatness [2006.11.07-12.50] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> also, is "sublimation" the correct term, here? [2006.11.07-12.51] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> i mean, i know whatchootalkinbout, willis, but i thought sublimation was going from a solid directly to a gas and just skipping the liquid state altogether [2006.11.07-12.51] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> well [2006.11.07-12.51] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> i aint no scientist or nuthin [2006.11.07-12.52] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> IAMAS [2006.11.07-12.52] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> the problem is that it isn't really evaporating, in my mind [2006.11.07-12.52] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> er, IANAS [2006.11.07-12.52] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> but maybe i'm looking at it wrong [2006.11.07-12.52] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> what if the bottle is, like, 90% empty [2006.11.07-12.52] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> itd take a lotta gas to fill up and pressurize the remaining space in that bottle [2006.11.07-12.53] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> if it's 90% empty there's nothing you can do with the bottle to retain or promote its fizz [2006.11.07-12.53] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> it's the same as having it out in a glass [2006.11.07-12.53] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> i guess if you can squeeze the bottle in such a way that it does NOT unsqueeze itself with the gas pressure, you could help keep it fizzy [2006.11.07-12.53] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> yes [2006.11.07-12.53] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> i agree with that [2006.11.07-12.54] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> if you keep the bottle squeezed with a vise, then the strategy is sound [2006.11.07-12.54] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> i just wonder out of the total gas in a bottle of soda, how much carpbonation is lost in that initial FSSSS! [2006.11.07-12.54] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> "not that much" [2006.11.07-12.54] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> hmm [2006.11.07-12.54] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> consider the mentos [2006.11.07-12.54] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> it is ample illustration of the remaining fizz potential [2006.11.07-12.54] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> ahhh, the majestic mentos [2006.11.07-12.55] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> and quite a demonstration, at that [2006.11.07-12.55] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> so, if you open a bottle of soda, then immediately recap it, will it ever achieve the amount of pressure as it had before it was first opened? [2006.11.07-12.56] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> no [2006.11.07-12.56] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> they need a collapsible bottle so that as you pour out the contents, you can compress the container and keep it rigid enough not to expand from the repressurization inside [2006.11.07-12.56] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> unless you precipitate it with, say, a mento [2006.11.07-12.57] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> woah there [2006.11.07-12.57] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> theres still the same amount of gas in there, regardless of the presence or absence of a mento [2006.11.07-12.57] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> yeah [2006.11.07-12.57] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> but you asked about the pressure [2006.11.07-12.58] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> so, what happens if you drop in a mento, then immediately recap it... [2006.11.07-12.58] Ninja@VargonMUD <imud_gossip> run level 3 ain't leaking memory...gotta be something added by level 5...da X window gui [2006.11.07-12.58] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> a need for towels [2006.11.07-12.58] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> would the gas eventually ... i dunno, dissolve back into the soda? [2006.11.07-12.58] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> you need a test chmber [2006.11.07-12.59] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> hermetic [2006.11.07-12.59] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> with a mentos-drop assembly inside [2006.11.07-12.59] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> so, what if: 1) uncap, 2) depressurize, 3) add mento, 4) recap, 5) repressurize, 6) wait around a day or so [2006.11.07-12.59] Cratylus@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> also a barometer [2006.11.07-12.59] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> need to build me a "clean room" in my garage [2006.11.07-12.59] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> hmm [2006.11.07-13.02] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> they need to make something that you can open a can of pop and scrwe onto the top that will 1) drop a straw down to the bottom so that you can get soda out of it via a valve and 2) pump air into the bottle in order to repressurize the interior and not lose the fizz [2006.11.07-13.03] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> basically, a kep tap for a soda bottle [2006.11.07-13.03] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> er, keg tap [2006.11.07-13.11] Aransus@Pyloros <imud_gossip> Send the dilemma to Mythbusters. That way you don't have to do the work, and you probably get to watch a nice little explosion somewhere along the line. [2006.11.07-13.12] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> hmm, good idea [2006.11.07-13.12] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> or ask cecil or something [2006.11.07-13.16] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> yknow, i was thinking [2006.11.07-13.16] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> (no really, i was) [2006.11.07-13.17] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> that the best thing about election day is that its finally over [2006.11.07-13.17] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> but then i though, "but... it ISNT" [2006.11.07-13.17] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> theres all the recounts n recalls and recaps and rebars and rewrites n stuff [2006.11.07-13.18] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> except, of course, when you have a clear "mandate" [2006.11.07-13.28] Duuk@Haven <imud_gossip> No. [2006.11.07-13.32] Plugh@Dead Souls Demo <imud_gossip> was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor?
