it's because of quantum mechanics
we are the gods of our own realm

you should pre-boil with a tea kettle and use the extra water to make tea

>>12069404
Because it’s shy anon..

>>12069404
Same reason why if you have to piss really bad thirty seconds feels like an hour.

>>12069404
It’s like when you go to a busy public urinal where people are looking at you and you can’t go, just give it some privacy

>>12069404
Weird quantum shit

>>12069418
Underrated

water boils faster when you cover it, silly.
And you can't watch a covered pot.

>>12069588
Unless it’s made of glass, stupid.

>>12069429
or get induction and you wont even need an electric tea kettle.

>>12069404
Because you're not doing anything else.

Why does it take my compooter to update longer when I'm watching it? Same thing right?

>>12069404
According to simulation theory, water takes longer to boil while you watch it because it takes more processing power to keep the pot, water, and heat source active and modeled. It disappears when it's outside of everyone's field of view, and the view of cameras. Thus since the computer running the simulation of our universe requires less processing time to increase the temperature if a non-watched pot, it boils considerably faster.

I'm autistic and this has not been my experience.

>you can see through a steamed up glass cover
Goddamn you've never cooked have you?

>>12069636
The fuck are you talking about? None of my covers ever steam up. It's what the hole is there for.

>>12069621
Huh?

>>12069691
Based "Huh?"-chad.

>>12069691
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

>>12069680
The hole is there to stop the lid bouncing around as steam escapes. It doesn't stop steam from condensing on the lid.

My stove isn't very effective at boiling water because it's gas

>>12069404

Thanks, Heisenberg

>>12070382
you shouldn't boil gas...

>>12069711
No, it makes a vibration that ripples through the air, you need an ear and a brain to pickup and convert that vibration into what is interpreted as sound,

>>12070399
So in a sense, it does make a sound, but still no-one is around to hear it, except for animals and plants I guess. The same physical action (i.e. sound waves travelling through air) occurs regardless.

>>12070399
Animals have ears too.

>>12070399
>it makes a wave that ripples through the air, you need an eye and a brain to pickup and convert that light into what is interpreted as sight
>ergo, when I close my eyes, nothing exists
Do you see how fucking retarded you sound?

>>12070427
A vibration is not a sound. Its just air thats moving in a unique way.

>>12070433
Yes and if an animal is there to hear it then the sound exists in that animals head. If no animal is there then the sound doesnt exist, only the soundwave that could be turned into sound if there was an animal there exists.

>>12070448
All sounds are vibration. A vibration you can't hear is only a vibration too subtle for your underevolved ears.

>>12070453
Nobody is talking about being close to the soundwave that you just cant pick it up because your ears are not sensitive enough, we’re talking about being completely removed from the source of the sound so even if you had the most sensitive ears it wouldnt make a difference,

>>12070442
When you die does the universe still exist if youre not alive to perceive it?

>>12070463
You can perceive it after death, so yes it does exist. Ask God about it after you die. He'll be happy to elaborate.

Cringe

>>12070382
Get a portable induction top, those are fantastic at getting a lot of water to boiling temp quickly. Then continue simmering on gas.

>>12069621
This is actually pretty accurate

>he doesn't pre-boil his water and keep in it the freezer for later

JFC anon, how stupid can you be?

>>12069404

just boil your water under vacuum, pasta in 3 min
