As others have said, microwave ovens create standing waves with regions of higher power (hot spots), which unevenly heat food. If you want to see this for yourself, Scientific American has a kids project for measuring the hot spots in a microwave using chocolate or marshmallows. There’s also a bunch of videos on YouTube of people essentially doing this same project.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who had that thought haha
Republicans have been spreading racist lies about immigrants eating dogs, meanwhile they have:
Kristi Noem: shot a puppy in a gravel pit (and then a goat to fully sate her bloodlust).
Head of project 2025: beat a dog to death with a shovel.
RFK Jr: claims to be willing to eat almost any animal “except dogs”. Given his whale and bear carcass stories, I assume it’s just a matter of time before the dog eating story drops.

Honestly this sounds like user error. From one of the links in the article:
As the journalist and Apple Store staff tested, if you insert the wrong passcode for 1 to 5 times, there will only be red notifications saying the passcode is wrong, and you needn’t wait to give it another try.
For the 6th time you insert a wrong passcode, it will report, “iPhone is disabled, try again in 1 minute”. And the phone will be locked, and you won’t be able to insert passcode again until 1 minute later.
For the 7th time, the iPhone will show, “iPhone is disabled, try again in 5 minutes”.
For the 8th time, the iPhone will be locked for 15 minutes, and for the 9th time, it will be locked for 60 minutes to insert passcode again.
If you insert the wrong passcode for 10th time, the iPhone will be disabled and you will have to connect it to iTunes to unlock.
Apparently if you jailbreak the iPhone the delays aren’t set correctly (or at least that was the case 10 years ago)?
On top of that, the user couldn’t just wipe the phone because they didn’t want to lose a video that wasn't backed up anywhere else.
If the immigration doesn’t work, at least the bomb threats are adding some excitement for the townsfolk.
Step 1: Collect a bucket of piranhas
Step 2: ?
Step 3: Profit
Gallagher’s decision to leave April 19 also means that there will not be a special election to fill his seat. Under Wisconsin state law, vacancies after the second Tuesday in April are filled in the general election, so Gallagher’s replacement will be decided in November and his seat will remain empty until January.
If he resigns just a week earlier his seat would likely be filled by another republican. Credit where credit is due, this is an intentional move on his part to express dissatisfaction with house republicans.
Former president Donald Trump ratcheted up his dehumanizing rhetoric against immigrants Saturday by saying that some who are accused of crimes are “not people.”
“I don’t know if you call them people,” he said at a rally near Dayton, Ohio. “In some cases they’re not people, in my opinion. But I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say.”
Apparently I’m part of the radical left, because yes that is a terrible thing to say.
The vote was 336 to 95, clearing the two-thirds threshold required for passage. In the end, 209 Democrats and 127 Republicans joined to pass the bill. Ninety-three Republicans opposed it, as did two Democrats.
While this is technically bipartisan, a majority of the votes are from Democrats. Once again it’s up to congressional Democrats to save the GOP from itself (not to mention America from the GOP) and keep the government functioning.
This is so beyond indefensible that I have no words.
A failure to hold Trump accountable for his many flagrant violations of national security laws would be a complete failure of justice.
Idk, he might still be mentally scarred from that time someone brought a wooden gun.
