(11:26:20 PM) weimeranershadow: or mars
(11:26:26 PM) Sniffnoy: or Mars!
(11:26:32 PM) Sniffnoy: I had not considered Mars
(11:26:42 PM) Sniffnoy: but Mars is pretty far away
(11:27:39 PM) weimeranershadow: not as far as the galactic center
(11:27:49 PM) Sniffnoy: true
(11:28:11 PM) weimeranershadow: i would like to see a plot of
(11:28:13 PM) weimeranershadow: maybe
(11:28:32 PM) weimeranershadow: destructive power (when thrown) over distance
(11:28:34 PM) weimeranershadow: from here
(11:28:38 PM) Sniffnoy: heh
(11:28:43 PM) weimeranershadow: just a 1D histogram
(11:29:16 PM) Sniffnoy: how do we measure destructive power when thrown, though?
(11:31:33 PM) weimeranershadow: how close it brings Kirby to death?
(11:32:06 PM) Sniffnoy: explain?
(11:32:18 PM) Sniffnoy: brb
(11:32:56 PM) weimeranershadow: well kirby never dies
(11:33:23 PM) weimeranershadow: but perhaps, as a function of destructive force applied, kirby asymptotically approaches death
(11:34:37 PM) weimeranershadow: and if this function were invertible
(11:35:03 PM) Sniffnoy: m
(11:35:18 PM) Sniffnoy: but how do we even determine his death proximity?
(11:36:19 PM) weimeranershadow: hmm
(11:36:24 PM) weimeranershadow: ask 'chu?
(11:36:34 PM) Sniffnoy: *shrug*
(11:36:43 PM) Sniffnoy: can we look at his damage maybe?
(11:38:25 PM) weimeranershadow: but that only has 1000 different ratings
(11:39:24 PM) Sniffnoy: or maybe Smash's damage-meter just pins at 999
(11:39:28 PM) Sniffnoy: and we need a better one
(11:50:52 PM) Sniffnoy: unless you were on the moon
???: (For some reason I had gotten the idea that this person was Jake. However, judging by his reaction, I would guess not, in fact it's probably someone I don't know at all. Oh well.)
(11:39:30 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(11:39:33 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(11:39:56 PM) Pupper9: ?
(11:40:07 PM) Tavgfrg: well I mean
(11:40:10 PM) Tavgfrg: the moon is really large
(11:40:17 PM) Tavgfrg: so if you throw it at something
(11:40:19 PM) Tavgfrg: and you hit
(11:40:22 PM) Tavgfrg: it's almost certain to destroy it
(11:40:50 PM) Pupper9: I guess thats true

(10:56:37 PM) laquamarine7: ahh
(10:56:46 PM) laquamarine7: you mean, to throw it into the moon?
(10:56:49 PM) Sniffnoy: no
(10:56:51 PM) Sniffnoy: other way around
(10:56:54 PM) laquamarine7: how?
(10:56:59 PM) Sniffnoy: well
(10:57:09 PM) Sniffnoy: you could put a device on the moon that flung bits of it off
(10:57:13 PM) Sniffnoy: and slowly this would propel it
(10:57:32 PM) Sniffnoy: or maybe you could just strap a giant rocket to the moon
(10:57:45 PM) laquamarine7: yeah there would be recoil
(10:59:13 PM) Sniffnoy: also, if you want to take a really long time,
(10:59:33 PM) Sniffnoy: you could put propulsion devices on asteroids and swing them by the moon
(10:59:37 PM) Sniffnoy: to slightly alter its orbit
(11:00:01 PM) laquamarine7: wouldn't this take a lot of power?
(11:00:05 PM) Sniffnoy: yes!
(11:00:07 PM) laquamarine7: could we have nuclear power plants on the moon?
(11:00:10 PM) Sniffnoy: ooh
(11:00:23 PM) laquamarine7: transporting fuel there is a hassle
(11:00:26 PM) Sniffnoy: and those might mike a nice explosion once we crashed the moon into our target, too
(11:01:07 PM) Sniffnoy: hm indeed
(11:01:41 PM) laquamarine7: wow we have so many nuclear weapons
(11:01:54 PM) laquamarine7: have you watched Iron Man?
(11:01:57 PM) Sniffnoy: no
(11:02:32 PM) Sniffnoy: does he hit people with nuclear moons?
(11:03:22 PM) laquamarine7: nope.. America nukes the middle east
(11:03:28 PM) Sniffnoy: oh
(11:03:34 PM) laquamarine7: and some guy engineers giant robots
(11:03:47 PM) laquamarine7: actually the middle east nukes itself, as well
(11:03:50 PM) Sniffnoy: oh
(11:03:53 PM) laquamarine7: yeah... lots of nukes
(11:03:57 PM) laquamarine7: in this movie
(11:04:24 PM) Sniffnoy: but only one moon
(11:04:56 PM) laquamarine7: yes

(8:39:49 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(8:39:54 PM) moggy188: that's so
(8:40:34 PM) Tavgfrg: also, fiery fruit
(8:41:07 PM) moggy188: ....I mean... different kinds of destroying though...
(8:41:13 PM) Tavgfrg: well, yes
(8:41:28 PM) Tavgfrg: it's true the moon is a bit more thorough
(8:41:40 PM) moggy188: a bit?
(8:42:10 PM) Tavgfrg: noticeably
(8:42:16 PM) moggy188: lol
(8:43:39 PM) Tavgfrg: even more so if the moon is also on fire
(8:43:49 PM) moggy188: yea
(8:44:21 PM) Tavgfrg: although perhaps that really only offsets the fire on the fruit in the first place
Kat:
(10:52:49 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(10:52:54 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(10:53:24 PM) kabethley: I'm not so sure.
(10:53:30 PM) Tavgfrg: oh?
(10:54:02 PM) kabethley: so, say you have something that in pop culture is believed to be a cracker.
(10:54:14 PM) kabethley: so if you throw the moon, i.e. something that in pop culture is believed to be cheese
(10:54:17 PM) kabethley: and you throw it at it
(10:54:23 PM) kabethley: you are making cheese and crackers
(10:54:28 PM) kabethley: and the cracker is still there
(10:54:41 PM) kabethley: ergo you haven't destroyed it
(10:54:45 PM) Tavgfrg: ah but no, people only think you are making cheese and crackers!
(10:55:01 PM) Tavgfrg: in fact you are making supposed-cracker-annihilation!
(10:55:15 PM) kabethley: or, a better question, how do you destroy the moon?
(10:55:24 PM) Tavgfrg: ...throw it at itself?
(10:55:38 PM) kabethley: hmm.
(10:56:00 PM) kabethley: I will have to think about that. Offline, sadly, as this is my mother's computer and she needs it back.
(10:56:01 PM) kabethley: : (
(10:56:28 PM) Tavgfrg: see you
Wilson:

(10:49:24 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(10:50:02 PM) johnmosesbrownin: The only known countermeasure is Link, of Zelda fame.
(10:50:14 PM) Tavgfrg: he can destroy the moon?
(10:50:15 PM) Tavgfrg: oh wait
(10:50:20 PM) Tavgfrg: I guess he's done it once before
(10:50:31 PM) Tavgfrg: I was thinking more of "running away very fast"
(10:50:34 PM) Tavgfrg: but that might work too
Ian:
(10:58:25 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(10:58:27 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(10:58:44 PM) sparbstorm: true
(10:58:56 PM) Sniffnoy: I guess the problem is how to go about doing this
(11:00:48 PM) Sniffnoy: an axe won't really help here
(11:00:58 PM) Sniffnoy: although I suppose the axe could be used instead of hitting it with the moon
(11:04:52 PM) sparbstorm: true
Nathan:
(4:54:58 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(4:55:00 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(4:55:34 PM) NathanSchulz: but the moon doesn't weigh anythign!
(4:55:42 PM) NathanSchulz: you must be talking about the radiation from the moon
(4:55:56 PM) NathanSchulz: that would give whatever you threw the moon at cancer in no time
(4:56:15 PM) Tavgfrg: well yes, but still you ultimately destroy it by throwing the moon at it
(4:56:27 PM) NathanSchulz: yeah, i suppose you're right
(4:56:33 PM) NathanSchulz: throwing nevada at people works well too!
(4:56:39 PM) Tavgfrg: huh
(4:56:42 PM) Tavgfrg: I hadn't considered that
(4:56:53 PM) Tavgfrg: is it for similar reasons?
(4:57:06 PM) NathanSchulz: yeah
(4:57:22 PM) Tavgfrg: or you could throw the people at Nevada
(4:57:48 PM) NathanSchulz: no, because Nevada doesn't weigh anything
(4:57:53 PM) NathanSchulz: you throw nevada at them
(4:57:57 PM) Tavgfrg: hm
Anthony:
(8:59:18 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(8:59:21 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(9:00:06 PM) antwan7000: i imagine that would be very thorough
(9:00:11 PM) Sniffnoy: yup
(9:00:28 PM) antwan7000: how do you take control of the moon?
(9:00:33 PM) Sniffnoy: well
(9:00:44 PM) Sniffnoy: you could put a device on it to hurl bits of it off, slowly propelling it
(9:01:36 PM) antwan7000: i imagine you'd have to be very patient to achieve your goal that way though, unless you have a very big device
(9:01:58 PM) Sniffnoy: m true
(9:02:50 PM) Sniffnoy: you could get Superman to throw it for you?
(9:46:31 PM) antwan7000: i forget, does superman need to breathe?
(9:46:39 PM) Sniffnoy: I think it varies
(9:46:43 PM) antwan7000: in space
(9:47:04 PM) Sniffnoy: he's certainly flown in space on his own, so I guess not
(9:47:34 PM) antwan7000: how does superman develop propulsion?
(9:47:55 PM) Sniffnoy: I don't know
(9:48:13 PM) antwan7000: i assume even superman can't defy the laws of thermodynamics
(9:48:35 PM) antwan7000: if he does, then i might have to not believe he exists
(9:48:42 PM) antwan7000: this is becoming difficult for me
(9:49:08 PM) Sniffnoy: I am surprised you had not considered this before
(9:49:26 PM) antwan7000: i guess i haven't really considered superman much before in the first place
(9:50:25 PM) antwan7000: batman, spiderman, the hulk, all obey the laws of thermodynamics, even the firey guy from the fantastic four, at least, with a little suspension of disbelief you can invent a way in which he falls within the boundaries of it
(9:50:29 PM) antwan7000: but super man
(9:51:26 PM) antwan7000: i'm not sure superman is an appropriate solution to the moon problem

(8:48:53 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(8:49:48 PM) TheOneAsayake: I always wondered how Sailor Moon's seemingly useless attacks were the only things that could destroy the monsters
(8:49:53 PM) Sniffnoy: hm
(8:49:58 PM) Sniffnoy: I didn't make that connection
(8:50:10 PM) TheOneAsayake: <--- Watched too much sailor moon as a child
(8:50:16 PM) Sniffnoy: apparently
(8:50:19 PM) TheOneAsayake: lol
(8:50:48 PM) Sniffnoy: actually that might be something of a solution, a recurring problem is that actually throwing the moon is pretty hard, but this might do it
(8:51:15 PM) TheOneAsayake: ...transforming into Sailor Moon?
(8:51:19 PM) Sniffnoy: yeah
(8:51:28 PM) TheOneAsayake: ...I'll keep that in mind.
Summer:
(8:21:17 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(8:21:21 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(8:21:38 PM) bananapyro: Good idea
(8:22:17 PM) Sniffnoy: oh, does Summer have a target?
(8:22:35 PM) bananapyro: Not that I'm aware of
(8:22:39 PM) Sniffnoy: hm
(8:22:42 PM) Sniffnoy: that is the problem
(8:22:48 PM) Sniffnoy: I can't think of anything to throw it at
(8:23:01 PM) bananapyro: Jupiter
(8:25:05 PM) Sniffnoy: m I think that falls outside the range of this technique
(8:25:12 PM) Sniffnoy: being so large and gaseous
(8:25:18 PM) bananapyro: Jupiter is rather large
(8:26:16 PM) bananapyro: Perhaps Pluto? Maybe it'll stick and be enough to classify it as a planet
(8:26:31 PM) Sniffnoy: ! now that is an interesting idea
Laura:
(11:48:00 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(11:48:03 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(11:48:09 PM) prionz rok1: Hm.
(11:48:19 PM) prionz rok1: Throwing it at the moon could be just as effective.
(11:48:25 PM) Tavgfrg: maybe
(11:48:31 PM) prionz rok1: But you'd have to throw it very hard.
(11:48:36 PM) Tavgfrg: yes
(11:49:04 PM) prionz rok1: And it would be hard to tell whether or not you actually destroyed it.
(11:49:27 PM) Tavgfrg: I suppose you could throw it at the earth, it's even larger
(11:49:39 PM) prionz rok1: Hmmm.
(11:49:42 PM) prionz rok1: Again, a good point
(11:50:44 PM) Tavgfrg: but that's not nearly as interesting
(11:50:55 PM) prionz rok1: I suppose.
(11:51:07 PM) prionz rok1: There is a distinct probable-to-interesting tradeoff
(11:51:35 PM) Tavgfrg: unless you were on the moon
(11:53:04 PM) Tavgfrg: then it would be good
(11:56:25 PM) prionz rok1: Yeah, but then the lack of gravity would be frustrating.
(11:56:29 PM) prionz rok1: You'd throw it, and boing!
(11:56:30 PM) prionz rok1: Nothing.
(11:56:49 PM) Tavgfrg: oh no, I meant throwing it at the Earth, from the moon
(11:57:29 PM) prionz rok1: Ahhh.
(11:57:31 PM) prionz rok1: I see.
(11:57:33 PM) prionz rok1: Well, that might work.

(8:59:43 PM) Tavgfrg: no do not throw the moon at me
(9:00:01 PM) WerewolfNeil: why would I want to destroy you Harry?
(9:00:06 PM) Tavgfrg: I... don't know?
(9:00:09 PM) WerewolfNeil: you are not my nemesis

(10:52:54 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(10:53:24 PM) kabethley: I'm not so sure.
(10:53:30 PM) Tavgfrg: oh?
(10:54:02 PM) kabethley: so, say you have something that in pop culture is believed to be a cracker.
(10:54:14 PM) kabethley: so if you throw the moon, i.e. something that in pop culture is believed to be cheese
(10:54:17 PM) kabethley: and you throw it at it
(10:54:23 PM) kabethley: you are making cheese and crackers
(10:54:28 PM) kabethley: and the cracker is still there
(10:54:41 PM) kabethley: ergo you haven't destroyed it
(10:54:45 PM) Tavgfrg: ah but no, people only think you are making cheese and crackers!
(10:55:01 PM) Tavgfrg: in fact you are making supposed-cracker-annihilation!
(10:55:15 PM) kabethley: or, a better question, how do you destroy the moon?
(10:55:24 PM) Tavgfrg: ...throw it at itself?
(10:55:38 PM) kabethley: hmm.
(10:56:00 PM) kabethley: I will have to think about that. Offline, sadly, as this is my mother's computer and she needs it back.
(10:56:01 PM) kabethley: : (
(10:56:28 PM) Tavgfrg: see you
Wilson:
(10:49:20 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(10:49:24 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(10:50:02 PM) johnmosesbrownin: The only known countermeasure is Link, of Zelda fame.
(10:50:14 PM) Tavgfrg: he can destroy the moon?
(10:50:15 PM) Tavgfrg: oh wait
(10:50:20 PM) Tavgfrg: I guess he's done it once before
(10:50:31 PM) Tavgfrg: I was thinking more of "running away very fast"
(10:50:34 PM) Tavgfrg: but that might work too
Ian:
(10:58:25 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(10:58:27 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(10:58:44 PM) sparbstorm: true
(10:58:56 PM) Sniffnoy: I guess the problem is how to go about doing this
(11:00:48 PM) Sniffnoy: an axe won't really help here
(11:00:58 PM) Sniffnoy: although I suppose the axe could be used instead of hitting it with the moon
(11:04:52 PM) sparbstorm: true
Nathan:
(4:54:58 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(4:55:00 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(4:55:34 PM) NathanSchulz: but the moon doesn't weigh anythign!
(4:55:42 PM) NathanSchulz: you must be talking about the radiation from the moon
(4:55:56 PM) NathanSchulz: that would give whatever you threw the moon at cancer in no time
(4:56:15 PM) Tavgfrg: well yes, but still you ultimately destroy it by throwing the moon at it
(4:56:27 PM) NathanSchulz: yeah, i suppose you're right
(4:56:33 PM) NathanSchulz: throwing nevada at people works well too!
(4:56:39 PM) Tavgfrg: huh
(4:56:42 PM) Tavgfrg: I hadn't considered that
(4:56:53 PM) Tavgfrg: is it for similar reasons?
(4:57:06 PM) NathanSchulz: yeah
(4:57:22 PM) Tavgfrg: or you could throw the people at Nevada
(4:57:48 PM) NathanSchulz: no, because Nevada doesn't weigh anything
(4:57:53 PM) NathanSchulz: you throw nevada at them
(4:57:57 PM) Tavgfrg: hm
Anthony:
(8:59:18 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(8:59:21 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(9:00:06 PM) antwan7000: i imagine that would be very thorough
(9:00:11 PM) Sniffnoy: yup
(9:00:28 PM) antwan7000: how do you take control of the moon?
(9:00:33 PM) Sniffnoy: well
(9:00:44 PM) Sniffnoy: you could put a device on it to hurl bits of it off, slowly propelling it
(9:01:36 PM) antwan7000: i imagine you'd have to be very patient to achieve your goal that way though, unless you have a very big device
(9:01:58 PM) Sniffnoy: m true
(9:02:50 PM) Sniffnoy: you could get Superman to throw it for you?
(9:46:31 PM) antwan7000: i forget, does superman need to breathe?
(9:46:39 PM) Sniffnoy: I think it varies
(9:46:43 PM) antwan7000: in space
(9:47:04 PM) Sniffnoy: he's certainly flown in space on his own, so I guess not
(9:47:34 PM) antwan7000: how does superman develop propulsion?
(9:47:55 PM) Sniffnoy: I don't know
(9:48:13 PM) antwan7000: i assume even superman can't defy the laws of thermodynamics
(9:48:35 PM) antwan7000: if he does, then i might have to not believe he exists
(9:48:42 PM) antwan7000: this is becoming difficult for me
(9:49:08 PM) Sniffnoy: I am surprised you had not considered this before
(9:49:26 PM) antwan7000: i guess i haven't really considered superman much before in the first place
(9:50:25 PM) antwan7000: batman, spiderman, the hulk, all obey the laws of thermodynamics, even the firey guy from the fantastic four, at least, with a little suspension of disbelief you can invent a way in which he falls within the boundaries of it
(9:50:29 PM) antwan7000: but super man
(9:51:26 PM) antwan7000: i'm not sure superman is an appropriate solution to the moon problem
Nadja:
(8:48:50 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(8:48:53 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(8:49:48 PM) TheOneAsayake: I always wondered how Sailor Moon's seemingly useless attacks were the only things that could destroy the monsters
(8:49:53 PM) Sniffnoy: hm
(8:49:58 PM) Sniffnoy: I didn't make that connection
(8:50:10 PM) TheOneAsayake: <--- Watched too much sailor moon as a child
(8:50:16 PM) Sniffnoy: apparently
(8:50:19 PM) TheOneAsayake: lol
(8:50:48 PM) Sniffnoy: actually that might be something of a solution, a recurring problem is that actually throwing the moon is pretty hard, but this might do it
(8:51:15 PM) TheOneAsayake: ...transforming into Sailor Moon?
(8:51:19 PM) Sniffnoy: yeah
(8:51:28 PM) TheOneAsayake: ...I'll keep that in mind.
Summer:
(8:21:17 PM) Sniffnoy: so a good way to destroy something
(8:21:21 PM) Sniffnoy: is to throw the moon at it
(8:21:38 PM) bananapyro: Good idea
(8:22:17 PM) Sniffnoy: oh, does Summer have a target?
(8:22:35 PM) bananapyro: Not that I'm aware of
(8:22:39 PM) Sniffnoy: hm
(8:22:42 PM) Sniffnoy: that is the problem
(8:22:48 PM) Sniffnoy: I can't think of anything to throw it at
(8:23:01 PM) bananapyro: Jupiter
(8:25:05 PM) Sniffnoy: m I think that falls outside the range of this technique
(8:25:12 PM) Sniffnoy: being so large and gaseous
(8:25:18 PM) bananapyro: Jupiter is rather large
(8:26:16 PM) bananapyro: Perhaps Pluto? Maybe it'll stick and be enough to classify it as a planet
(8:26:31 PM) Sniffnoy: ! now that is an interesting idea
Laura:
(11:48:00 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(11:48:03 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(11:48:09 PM) prionz rok1: Hm.
(11:48:19 PM) prionz rok1: Throwing it at the moon could be just as effective.
(11:48:25 PM) Tavgfrg: maybe
(11:48:31 PM) prionz rok1: But you'd have to throw it very hard.
(11:48:36 PM) Tavgfrg: yes
(11:49:04 PM) prionz rok1: And it would be hard to tell whether or not you actually destroyed it.
(11:49:27 PM) Tavgfrg: I suppose you could throw it at the earth, it's even larger
(11:49:39 PM) prionz rok1: Hmmm.
(11:49:42 PM) prionz rok1: Again, a good point
(11:50:44 PM) Tavgfrg: but that's not nearly as interesting
(11:50:55 PM) prionz rok1: I suppose.
(11:51:07 PM) prionz rok1: There is a distinct probable-to-interesting tradeoff
(11:51:35 PM) Tavgfrg: unless you were on the moon
(11:53:04 PM) Tavgfrg: then it would be good
(11:56:25 PM) prionz rok1: Yeah, but then the lack of gravity would be frustrating.
(11:56:29 PM) prionz rok1: You'd throw it, and boing!
(11:56:30 PM) prionz rok1: Nothing.
(11:56:49 PM) Tavgfrg: oh no, I meant throwing it at the Earth, from the moon
(11:57:29 PM) prionz rok1: Ahhh.
(11:57:31 PM) prionz rok1: I see.
(11:57:33 PM) prionz rok1: Well, that might work.
Supriya:
(8:58:06 PM) Tavgfrg: so a good way to destroy something
(8:58:09 PM) Tavgfrg: is to throw the moon at it
(8:59:17 PM) WerewolfNeil: HARRY
(8:59:43 PM) Tavgfrg: no do not throw the moon at me
(9:00:01 PM) WerewolfNeil: why would I want to destroy you Harry?
(9:00:06 PM) Tavgfrg: I... don't know?
(9:00:09 PM) WerewolfNeil: you are not my nemesis
(9:00:12 PM) WerewolfNeil: ...are you?
(9:00:20 PM) Tavgfrg: I don't think so
(9:00:58 PM) WerewolfNeil: whew
-Harry
