    These are the same people that got their knickers in a twist about microwaving water for tea. Logic is not found in these types, only vibes.

      I know what you mean but also there is a viseral vibe around microwaving water in particular that feels very caveman coded in the weirdest way.

          I’m aware but there’s this weird visceral unga bunga energy to it. It’d be like using a diesel generator to farm crypto it just feels fucking weird.

          You shouldn’t microwave water though, because there’s a chance that it could be superheated to the boiling point without looking like it and that can be dangerous.

            A really small chance that is only somewhat significant for distilled water and can be very easily mitigated by lightly tapping a teaspoon for a test.

            I do this everyday. The danger is not knowing but it’s not really riskier than being splashed by boiling water because you poured it too hard from a kettle.

        I think you got that backwards - the caveman is the one scared of the microwave and its spooky woo-woo magic that damages the water’s aura
