There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice π.

Replace the blood of every person that's SA'd someone with molten sodium chloride.
Drop a 6 foot by 2 inch tungsten rod from orbit onto anyone that's committed a warcrime, nailing them to the floor where they will be left as an example for everyone else.
Publically release complete documentation showing every country's actions that have been directly antagonistic to their own people (I'm talking EVERYTHING. Not just 'the files' but every action where a country has demonstrably done something that serves only the interests of the few at the cost of the people.)
The Genie thinks you haven't really thought this through, replacing blood with molten salt isn't physically possible and asking for mini rods from god to be launched from orbit at earth leaves it open to the genie how many and how much force to use. the Genie thinks you either don't respect the monkeys paw his powers or maybe that you want us all dead anyway :(
I mean, replacing blood with molten salt is entirely possible, it'll merely boil off most things it comes into contact with, which was the intent.
The genie is more than welcome to pick how many and at what velocity they hit their targets
I fully respect the genie's powers, and that they'd monkey's paw it, I was leaving that part up to them, and being VERY literal with my wishes to make sure the end result was at least in the same ballpark of the wish.
Wasn't that the point of the post? Get the best result out of a genie that's got hard limits on their wish giving powers?
The genie has a hard time calling it "replacing" blood with molten salt with blood making up so much of the human body and what is left destroying itself almost instantly when exposed to molten salt that all you'd really get is a molten salt shaped human and some bones in a pile after. genies also pretty sure the moment he poofs away the blood there already dead so this is just an over complicated way of throwing someone into a molten pit of salt. Your going to have to trust the genie on this one.
The quantity and speed govern energy, remember the genie was just confronted with the worst of humanity what if the genie decides all of humanity needs a reset with lots from everywhere destroying us all?
This is why the genie was worried, asking a genie for revenge or destruction almost always goes terribly wrong if only on principle of the genie not bring a hitman and is looking for equal ways to turn it against the wisher.
(And it was either that or replacing the water they drink with milk and making them lactose intolerant, but that would use two wishes)
Glad to hear the genie has some concern for the rest of humanity
The second one would include the creator of Stardew Valley for having a red cross on the hospital in game. Probably similar things like childrens drawings tooβ¦
I think that was a thing in Among Us, too
How do they count?
Using the sign of the red cross when youβre not The Red Cross constitutes a violation of the Geneva convention. I.e. a war crime.
Sucks to be Swiss, I guess
Google the Swiss flag. ;)
Lmao I'm kinda dyslexic
