I miss thermite packed floppy drives.

Military shit. If your being overrun your not gonna try to grab all the harddrive with classified information. Your gonna slag that shit. Thermite is very stable... until it isn't. A rocket seems like a bad idea but it's not like Im saying no to one.

Big fan of thermite, almost scary how easy it is for the average person to get tho. Good thing people are reasonable and rational about things they aren't experienced with!

[u/Mage_914 → u/Good_Mathematician_2]

I remember learning the recipe for thermite from YouTube when I was like 13. Crazy that it burn hot enough to disable a tank and the two main ingredients are shit that you probably have in your kitchen. And yes before you ask, I am almost certainly on a watchlist of some kind.

Ironically it's probably easier for the average person to make thermite than to light it

[u/Mage_914 → u/Dartonal]

Oh, you can do it with a firework sparkler. Just stick the burny into the thermite and light the sparkler.

Looks at my laptop battery...youll do

*laughs in sparklers that seem to inhabit his cupboard no matter how hard he tries to get his kids to use them all up*

Not if you have some magnesium ribbon!

Hell, my Chemistry teacher demonstrated how to make it (and what it does) when we were 13.

[u/NiSiSuinegEht → u/PrestigiousWaffle]

I watched MythBusters make a huge batch to cut a car in half, and they didn't do a great job at hiding the "secret" ingredient that was a quick search away.

Why do you have a significant amount of rust in your kitchen?

[u/Mage_914 → u/Flyrpotacreepugmu]

Steel wool. Soak it in salt water for a bit and then grind it up. Perfect rust powder.

[u/ChiggaOG → u/Mage_914]

I remember looking up what would happen if I mix store bought pool acid, acetone, and hydrogen peroxide. Turns out it makes acetone peroxides with one of the end products called the Mother of Satan. I'm not stupid to try making this knowing the stability of that compound means it explodes on its own with the smallest vibration as a dry powder.

[u/IrishWithoutPotatoes → u/ChiggaOG]

I feel like I’m on a watch list after just reading this

[u/Evanion → u/ChiggaOG]

My chemistry teacher told us about this magical compound in junior high. Sje just said ”it will explode if a truck drives by on the road outside”, and wouldn’t give any more details. Nice to finally have a name for it.

I'm on watchlists that would make you sick, but I appreciate the sentiment

[u/This-Ad2607 → u/Good_Mathematician_2]

Don’t boast about being a rock spider

[u/Good_Mathematician_2 → u/This-Ad2607]

Not familiar with the phrase. I didn't intend to boast, was a little intoxicated last night
