It depends on the force being applied and how still the fluid is still, but it's certainly plausible. Think of oobleck (cornstarch and water). Hitting with enough speed and force, the surface will act like a solid

Boiled meat tastes bad because you're not adding oil/butter. You're also not applying enough direct heat (plus keeping it too moist) to create the maillard reaction that is needed for a crust to form

The water doesn't make a difference. What's killing the bacteria is the heat. The water just changes the method of heat transfer. But as others have already said, killing the bacteria may not necessarily make it safe

Zelle actually got rid of its app and is now incorporated directly in the banking apps themselves. It's kind of like a browser extension where it has its own section in the banking app

The funny thing is, the very first thing engineers learn in almost any class is significant figures and to make sure an answer makes sense in a real life scenario. Obviously not everyone is the same in terms of how they apply things, but engineers are definitely taught not to do stuff like that

Most movie theaters are open Christmas Day in the US as well, not just boxing day. I've been to quite a few movies on the 25th. Tons of major films are released Christmas Day because it's such a high grossing day in the industry

Imagine if this meme said "Being rich is easy, if your Jewish enough " with a picture of a guy in a yamuka. How is that not playing into the stereotype? The whole point of the joke is that this is a stereotype of the culture

I know very little about fashion and I'm not even a huge fan of shopping, but I'm going insane looking at the same clothes every day in my closet. I would really like to revamp my style.

Does anyone have any recommendations?
