minus-squaredrathvedro@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-27 months agoAh no, it’s just that from reading this, I imagined it being poured outside, not inside the tower. Like, someone looking at Galileo doing his experiments dropping weights off Pisa tower, and saying: — What if we put a bucket underneath? What a splash it’d make! And another one going: — Yeah! And why just weights, let’s throw molten lead off! What safety concerns? Haven’t heard any
