This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Now that 4chan is gone, I guess we're doomed to endless reposts of the same few greentexts for all eternity.

[–] Biskii@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

I've got good and bad news. It's back and it's back

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

Now that 4chan is gone

It's back up.

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 9 points 2 days ago

An acceptable trade.

[–] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Now, now, we still have other shit holes to get greentext from (assuming you're willing to wade through them), and I assume some of the chans aren't 100% awful.

Bold assumption.

Otherwise people would have to read it

Because the cigarette lighter plug totally supplies enough wattage to power a heat plate that gets hot enough to burn pancakes

It sounds almost like you’re doubting the word of a real life policeman. How unamerican. America was built on the backs of our police. Imagine the dystopia we’d live in, had Tulsa not been saved.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago

Exactly. That's why I've got a back the blue flag on my pickup, next to my punisher sticker

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world -5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Please stop assuming everyone in the world is or wants to be American. We're not.

[–] TinyHorse@feddit.org 18 points 2 days ago

Why should anyone don’t want to be american? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I can pull about 300 watts (14.5v * 20A) sustained without the cigarette lighter fuse blowing

I have also seen eggs cooked on 65W CPUs

So could be feasible

Dude looks like a gigachad too lol

[–] Turret3857@infosec.pub 3 points 2 days ago

+1 to this. I charge my framework 16 with my car charger cigarette lighter. not impossible

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 15 points 2 days ago

Yes. Yes it is.

Personal experience.

I have a 750w inverter plugged into my 12v plug, and it is absolutely more than enough to run the little 500w single plate burner I have.

I have used them together but I don't do it outside of camping when it's too rainy to use a fire. It takes forever to cook bacon eggs and pancakes on a single burner.

[–] raltoid@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yup.

You can buy portable frying pans that run on the 12V AUX power, about 180W. They get it hot enough to burn things. Although it takes 10-20min for it to reach that temperature, even with the lid on. And you can't just keep frying a bunch of things without letting it reheat.

[–] BennyInc@feddit.org 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But Energy is Power times Time. So could you just slowly heat up a plate which „stores“ the heat energy long enough to get hot enough?

[–] Allero@lemmy.today 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

No, because it will dissipate such heat.

If you put it in a vacuum and cover it with reflective surfaces, though...

[–] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

New pancake recipe just dropped y’all

[–] Retro_unlimited@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I have a portable battery station (BLUETTI) that can plug into a cigarette outlet and it can power 3,000w of cooking things. Maybe that part could have been left out of the story.

The Simpsons wouldn't lie to me.

As he pulls him over, pancakes burn due to driver saing “oh crap”!
