For an AK47 it'd be 57.2N, so probably a bit less times 88, totalling something below 5000N or so for the ejected bullets, plus 30% for gas n stuff.
I highly recommend the xkcd in any case.

Why would the West do this
Appears to be a year old, if anyone else was wondering. Doubt things got any better afterwards...
An advocacy group that also served as a safe space for the LGBTQ community in Beijing became the latest organization to close under a crackdown by Chinese leader Xi Jinping's government.
"We very regretfully announce, due to forces beyond our control, the Beijing LGBT Center will stop operating today,"

Genuine question: why?
I mean I can imagine that it's heavy stress for the body but I'm surprised you're sure of death.

Probably a jackdaw. According to wikipedia this still counts as a raven, therefore as a crow!

Trump in disbelief as bishop calls him out in inaugural prayer
Reply in thread
And of course he went further on his social media:
The so-called Bishop who spoke at the National Prayer Service on Tuesday morning was a Radical Left hard line Trump hater. She brought her church into the World of politics in a very ungracious way. She was nasty in tone, and not compelling or smart. She failed to mention the large number of illegal migrants that came into our Country and killed people. Many were deposited from jails and mental institutions. It is a giant crime wave that is taking place in the USA. Apart from her inappropriate statements, the service was a very boring and uninspiring one. She is not very good at her job! She and her church owe the public an apology! t
What a spiteful child

Missouri law bars divorce during pregnancy – even in cases of violence
Reply in thread
Well, who needs bodily autonomy when you can just use slurs without repercussion. I really don't get why you try to reason with free speech or self defense laws against against this intrusion of your actual freedom.
Being forced to keep a pregnancy going and then being forced to stay in marriage won't get better when you can legally say whatever you want or shoot someone trespassing on your land...

See figure 3 here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_temperature
As mentioned above, there are other ways molecules can jiggle besides the three translational degrees of freedom that imbue substances with their kinetic temperature. As can be seen in the animation at right, molecules are complex objects; they are a population of atoms and thermal agitation can strain their internal chemical bonds in three different ways: via rotation, bond length, and bond angle movements; these are all types of internal degrees of freedom.
tl;dr Water be jiggly. Amount of jiggle is hard to put a number on

Also, Windows coined programs as apps, so pretty much any application may now be called app.

What kind of shows are you able to watch when you already need to skim the first episode setting the mood/vibe of the show? TikTok?

The harsh white light illuminating City Hall really gives gothic vibes in general.
The umbrella up front reminds me of the old McDonald's statues.

This is Titan, Saturn's largest Moon captured by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.
Reply in thread
With its liquids (both surface and subsurface) and robust nitrogen atmosphere, Titan's methane cycle bears a striking similarity to Earth's water cycle, albeit at the much lower temperature of about 94 K (−179 °C; −290 °F).
That's way too cold in my opinion!
