So we now have bots posting Facebook slop on here? And the users are upvoting this shit?
Seems like Lemmy is doomed to go down the same path as every other social media.

The difference is the comment section here has some coherency to it, isn't sorted to drive engagement, and the platform encourages discussion rather than trying to simultaneously make you interested in this thing but also the next thing so you don't spend too much time talking about this thing instead of seeing ads.
And no one is trying to use the comment box as a search engine or to message their granddaughter.
I also don't expect to see many comments on the race of the kids here.
Maybe the community will eventually go to shit here, too, but the difference between the various social media sites isn't just the content, it's the way the site is run and the kind of people it attracts and keeps.
Reddit, Instagram, Facebook and every other social media didn't start that way either, they started off good, but then they got worse over time
Yeah but I'd still argue it wasn't the content that caused that, other than having content attracted more people and there could be some critical mass (though I think it's about when the medium attracts a more mainstream audience that includes people who don't like to think more than they absolutely need to).
Use something sharp with low volume (a needle/fork?) so it doesn't spill over.
chopsticks
It is funny how even after so many failing each kid still thinks they can magically do it with the same way despite being subject to same physics laws
Add salt?
take the glass, drink the water, pull out the Mandarin, no drop was spilled.
Would you want to drink water ten+ kids put their hands in?
In the voice of Rocky and Bullwinkle announcer

Immune system boost!!
Or
Sicknes of 100 hands!
There are clubs in Los Angeles where children's dirty bathwater cocktails sell for $50.00 a glass.
If you think that's dirty just wait till you have kids
Well, exactly the problem. It's not just any hands, but child hands.
When I dig through my memory, my hands could've often been classified as biohazard. Genuinely.
We had a separate toilet room with no sink. I've used to spend a lot of time closed there. I've also played with wet toilet paper, modeling it into shapes.
Remember, no sink. So, how did I get it wet? Yeah, just like that. And I didn't necessarily flush before.
Sometimes I even used turds wrapped in a layer of toilet paper. It was warm and squishy.
Grosser things existing doesn't make this magically OK.
To Monty!
Give me the kniiiiiiiiiife
Pleeeeaaaaaaaase
the water is laced with rat poison...
that's bad
The glass comes with a free frogurt.
Schrodinger's mandarin?

The winner is the teacher's daughter. She watched him test it the night before at home.
Or an older sibling who had this test last year.
I would've never suspected that stirring water would make something that size rise up.
But you see, the key to the trick is that size has nothing to do with it, nor does weight. It's all about relative densities. The orange is almost entirely water, with just enough other stuff in it to make it sink. Even a bowling ball will float in water if it weighs less than 12 lbs.
"winner" spilled several drops, stab that orange with a pencil
Yes! I also came here to criticize the little girl.
Allies unite, I ain't allowing that munchkin no stole valor.
That hug from her friend was so genuinely heartwarming I couldn't help but smile.
What a wholesome antidote to the darkness that pervades. No AI, no screens, just kids learning. Love it.

I would've drank the water
That was my first strategy. Then, after watching a few attempts, I adjusted that strategy to "set up a new cup and I'll do it" because that water would have been nasty as soon as the first kid dipped their hands.
I feel like a drop would have spilled had she gone first. Part of this challenge is to let others fail so that you can succeed in the aftermath
The cup is filled to the same level when she sticks her finger in, as it was at the start of the video. Also, the water gets refilled throughout the video.

Step 1: put the plate on the glass as a lid
Step 2: hold the two together firmly, quickly turn them upside down
Step 3: trivial, the next person can easily figure it out from here.

Pour some water into the dish then get the mandarin. No water spilled.
Sir this is the science class, not english.
Can we not teach children this stuff, please? I need to be able to win bar bets in the future...
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted when its obviously sarcasm… right? Right???
Lemmy astounds me sometimes
At least half of lemmy users are autistic. I’ve never seen a group less capable of picking up on sarcasm.

I want to be smarter than those around me without me having to put in any actual effort.
I would have taken the L and fisted it for the next person
It's refilled
