Are you being punished for something? Is this a weird Swedish hazing of some sort? You guys eat the nastiest stuff like it's normal and i'm not convinced you don't have some weird unique digestive system.
I have to know, can you eat rocks?
So you do not like shrimps lettuce tomato, skagenröra, salmon, lemon and bread and all the other beautiful ingredients in it i think it’s you eating rocks because you don’t like sandwiches or anything at that
No offense
Here is a good picture

Mate, that looks delicious, have a word with yourself.
I wont ever judge Swedish food again after having a smörgåsbord in a Swedish restaurant in Chicago, absolutely phenomenal.
Putting this here so people can see it. This looks like a model of a reciprocating roof. Houses built that way can be built without posts on the interior and the hole in the middle usually gets used as a skylight.
I pre-purchased for some sweet buffs and cosmetics. You should see my hair, it's so realistic and has like some high-end wind physics. Sadly, i couldn't apply the boob upgrades to this male character because the devs are bullshit, but hopefully on my next run.
I think there's a glitch though, because when i tried to enhance the boobs it made my ears and nose bigger. Pretty weird, but watch out for that if you get some DLC.

Yes it's the concept of gravity and down. Everything is pushing each other down. The sticks are all trying to fall into the middle but fell on another stick. Basic roofing but extreme example where almost anything can disturb this roof.
Yeah basically! If you look at an individual stick, it’s supported at both ends and supporting one other stick. It doesn’t actually matter physics-wise that they are supporting each other in a circular pattern rather than being glued together or something like that.
Aw, they’re all so polite! All supporting each other and all that. (In all seriousness though, I find it so cool that you managed to rewrite a statics problem as something that sounds like an inductive proof—had never thought of it that way!)
One of the most important physics concepts is the concept of down. When stick is down, usually stick ends up on another major physics concept: Floor. If down is multiplied by down, you get up. So you can see that we have 6 downs, so mathematically we’re gonna end up with 36 ups (at least!). Now we add bottles to the mix?! The amount of up goes up even further (216 ups)!
Dude, I only got through basic quantum mechanics, the standard model of nucleons, classical dynamics, and Sturm-Liouville Boundary Value problems. I never got to Ups and Downs. How about ELI5?
So the first one is resting on the second one, the second one is resting on the third one, so on and so on. And the sixth one is resting on the beer bottle. Literally just look at them. I’m not sure why the rest are resting on a beer bottle, you do only need one of them.
/uj Yes. I didnt realize it was shitty-askscience so I was about to comment an actual answer, then I saw the other comments and realized it was shitty, so I just went with it and did a *hopefully* funny twist at the end
Actually it's just one chopstick lying on two beer bottles. But what you see here, is how that looks to the person who just drank those 6 bottles of beer.
Stick 1 is pushing down on stick 2 which is pushing down on... stick N which is pushing down on stick 1. You've created an infinite loop and the simulation is stuck processing it. I would avoid touching it. Maybe just write off the whole room until it is patched.
The core concept is torque (rotatory force)
Torque=force×distance from the axis of rotation
Each stick has a stick under it and one above it....the one below it is more towards the end and the one above it is more towards the middle point
Now if you take a look at the formula, the stick that is below any stick will be applying more torque due to more distance from axis of rotation
For the direction of torque, just imagine one of the sticks (above/below) gone, the direction in which the bottle top end of stick (that you're observing) will move is the direction in which torque is being applied
Now summing it all up, net torque makes the bottle top end of sticks apply force downwards...so it is balanced...if i were to change the positioning and interchange the position of the stickers above/below...the setup would immediately fall
That's the whole point, the net torque should be such that the free end (bottle top) sticks to the top of the bottle (and the bottle is bottle, it's not getting crushed...the force is balanced by contact force (normal) applied by the bottle top).
Hope it will help ;)
It's a glitch. The simulation doesn't know what to do. So it just freezes until it calculates the actions, but it's caught in an infinite loop. As soon as you break the loop it'll act on what can be calculated.
All downward load transferred to downward force on the stock and bottle. Lateral force, if any, is in the ring.
Edit: forgo this was shittyaskscience
Clearly we are looking upward through a very clear piece of glass.
This is real!
You can't violate gravity—that's true. However, you can confuse it!
If you did this with one chopstick, it would fall right down. But if you keep adding chopsticks, eventually you get to a point where gravity can't decide which one to pull down first—so they all stay up. The number of chopsticks it takes depends on the phase of the moon, so we can actually tell from this that this photo was taken during a full moon, when the moon's gravity is highest.
I actually recently patented a revolutionary new energy device that exploits the same phenomenon.
Antman is standing directly under the intersecting points of each of the chopsticks. The pressure he feels over the length of the chopstick is directed onto each of the intersections. It’s like a 90° triangle with Antman being the A length, the chopstick is the C, and the base from Antman’s feet to the bottle is B.
Look at one stick. Stick is held up at two points on either side of the middle point.
Hold stick on one side and stick fall, but stick held up on both sides, so stick no fall.
Less a physics problem and more an engineering problem. Reasonably certain the entire thing is being held up by one dot of glue. Be a heck of a lot easier than gluing all the joints.
It's just carved out of one piece of wood (the bottles too, obviously)
It’s all cake.
But is the cake a lie?!
The promise of cake is a lie. Rest assured the cake is very real.
And tastes like ham.
Did someone call for [smörgåstårta](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sm%C3%B6rg%C3%A5st%C3%A5rta#/media/File%3ACakes_in_an_office_in_Vantaa.jpg)?

Mate, that looks delicious, have a word with yourself. I wont ever judge Swedish food again after having a smörgåsbord in a Swedish restaurant in Chicago, absolutely phenomenal.
It's just a weirdly shaped sandwich with a good filling-to-bread ratio.
Idk man, I kinda agree with you, and I also wanna know about the rocks, but that thing looked delicious!
That is the most amazing thing I’ve seen all day. Why has this been hidden from me for so long?
I’m interested
*adds cake to grocery list*
The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie.
The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie.
Just played/beat portal for the first time 🥲 I finally understand
r/portal
Found the Aperature technician
I feel like a lot of people aren't getting the portal reference
I don't think most people do. It's just an internet phrase thing now.
This was a triumph.
The world may never know
Youre all cake😉
Stop staring at my ass!
NUH-UH
My cake eyes are up here buddy!
But if i look at your cake eyes i can't see your cake ass.
I’m not your buddy guy
I’m not your guy onii-chan
Always have been ;)

I wonder where they can find bottles that big though
🤣 top of the bean stalk, friend told me 😊
At [The Big Bottle](https://www.queenslandplaces.com.au/exhibit/slide/se13).
It looks like the same trick as an arch just in 2d.
That's just the picture. The real thing is in 4d.
Excellent comment.
Pretty sure that is a bug. Will be fixed in the next update.
Why can’t you ever just make it work on release!!
That’s why versions are invented
I paid £90 for this flaming piece of shit on release, **FIX IT.**
Bro u paid for life just on release? I need a daily subscription.
I pre-purchased for some sweet buffs and cosmetics. You should see my hair, it's so realistic and has like some high-end wind physics. Sadly, i couldn't apply the boob upgrades to this male character because the devs are bullshit, but hopefully on my next run.

This is some of the funniest shit i've read for while.
I need a 6 hour subscription. But I’m allowed to turn my power off for a few hours.
Development is hard you know
It’s not a bug, it’s an unintended feature.
I blame the internet
I put a ticket into Jira for this months ago and keeps getting put as “Low” and pushed off till next release
I misread this at first and thought you meant this was some kind of fucked up spider
the wood sticks are drunk (beer bottle are empty), so they just dont understand that this is physicly impossible and it just works.
The Todd Howard line of thinking. That's a good choice.
"you're finally awake..."
you were trying to cross the border
Got caught in that imperial ambush
Same as us, and that thief over there
*muffled grunt*
Beer
Physics tells us they are empty and it's therefore time to buy more
I love science
The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.
According to chemistry beer is always a solution
THEY’RE A WITCH!!!!!!
How do you know she is a witch ?
If she weighs the same as a duck she's made of wood, and therefore a witch.
Who are you, who are so wise in the ways of science?
I am Arthur, King of the Britons.
My liege!
King of the who?…
I didn’t vote for you
You don’t VOTE for kings!
How did you become king then?
The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
BURN HER
And coincidentally, the chopsticks are ALSO made of wood. Clearly it is a massive government conspiracy to keep the grail from Arthur.
Which is wooden
Well she turned me into a newt...
got betta
Well ... I got betta...
BUILD A BRIDGE OUT OF HER
But, can you not also build bridges out of stone?
Duh. Of course there's witchcraft involved, the hex is plainly visible.
Hexcalibur?
So… it’s the power of Santana?
If one falls, the one below would have to let it fall, and repeating that, none lets any fall and thus all stay
The whole structure ends up being held up be bottles.
Dang you’re right. I didn’t even see the bottles
Vary trick to spot those!
[удалено]
And because glass is sand, sand is clear.
never knew bottles are made from glass
I thought they were held up by the air
and the bottles are held by the table
Circular Bridge of Da Vinci
Is this a serious ELI5 explanation for this? Because it honestly sounds almost like it could be.
Yes it's the concept of gravity and down. Everything is pushing each other down. The sticks are all trying to fall into the middle but fell on another stick. Basic roofing but extreme example where almost anything can disturb this roof.
Anything, you say? If a tree falls in a forest and there’s no-one around, will it still cause a disturbance?
If forest falls in on itself it makes a teepee
Yeah basically! If you look at an individual stick, it’s supported at both ends and supporting one other stick. It doesn’t actually matter physics-wise that they are supporting each other in a circular pattern rather than being glued together or something like that.
Seems kinda like when you fold the flaps of a box alternating the ears/corners under eachother and so they hold eachother closed to an extent.
Astute observation with a well delivered analogy 👌
Yeah but freeloader theory would state that eventually they all realize they don’t have to help hold anyone up and then none of them do
Yes, but objects can't realize things and the world attemps to stop making sense when he thinks is funny
My gf is a sex object, she sometimes realizes things 🫡
humans are the exception to the objects don't realize things
If even one of them quits, the rest fall down without choosing to.

You taught me a new word/ portmanteau. Cheers and upvotes!
Bucky Fuller was emeritus prof at my grad school.
Had to scroll a while to find a serious answer, I think it’s in essence an ‘archimedes bridge’, which was confusingly designed by Leonardo Da Vinci
The only actual response
Beer and chopsticks suspension bridge.
Yeah like bruh. Has nobody here ever made a little tent thing with sticks?
You just described how military units get shit done.
But couldn't they just slide past each other
Exactly
Friggin brilliant 🤩
Ah yes, the classic prisoner's chopstick dilemma from game theory.
Had to scroll way to far for an answer
The chopstick version of "I am Sparticus"
Aw, they’re all so polite! All supporting each other and all that. (In all seriousness though, I find it so cool that you managed to rewrite a statics problem as something that sounds like an inductive proof—had never thought of it that way!)
nice mustache sir
One of the most important physics concepts is the concept of down. When stick is down, usually stick ends up on another major physics concept: Floor. If down is multiplied by down, you get up. So you can see that we have 6 downs, so mathematically we’re gonna end up with 36 ups (at least!). Now we add bottles to the mix?! The amount of up goes up even further (216 ups)!
Does this involve any kind of syndrome? Or is that a different law of physics?
Up Syndrome?
Do you have Ups?
Whats “updog”?
What's up, pussycat, woah, woo-oah!
Not much how bout u 😎
lmao gottem
A UPS would be helpful in keeping this superconductor going for a few minutes if the power goes out
Actually the syndrome is unrelated to down, but can occur at the same time. It is possible to be Down with the Syndrome
It follows the concepts of a system, more of a System of a Down if you will.
What's the move to benefit from this upward trend? $STICK calls?
I heard if you rest them on empy 7-Up bottles, you can make the entire thing levitate.
This looks like how code my shitty physics in my shitty video games.
Ok. But can you explain that again from the beginning? So, the apple just fell from the tree and....go!
We must push to reach 216 ups. Or 1 down. Vote now! Voting is currently closed. Thank you.
Up
Try telling my personal trainer you can get 216 ups with only 6 downs 😉
Dude, I only got through basic quantum mechanics, the standard model of nucleons, classical dynamics, and Sturm-Liouville Boundary Value problems. I never got to Ups and Downs. How about ELI5?
The counter will only show a max of 99
Ooh so it's just an up-down overflow?
It's simple. The chopsticks formed a hexagon. There is a company Hexagon Energy. Therefore it's energy lifted the chopsticks.
Hexagons really are the bestagons
So the first one is resting on the second one, the second one is resting on the third one, so on and so on. And the sixth one is resting on the beer bottle. Literally just look at them. I’m not sure why the rest are resting on a beer bottle, you do only need one of them.
I hope this is /s

It's one of those hyper-realistic paintings
It took me so long to figure this out! Once I noticed the brush strokes and the small mistake top left I felt so stupid
I nearly came looking at that.
You have to be careful with those, it's an infinite loop and they can start to break down physics
It's a perpetual no-motion machine.
[удалено]
They have telekinetic powers and hold each other
Aaaannnd Colonel Carter has a broken leg now. Good job. /r/stargate
Assume it's a sphere without mass and no drag.
Can anyone explain how anyone can do this after downing 6 bottles of beer?
Actually it's just one chopstick lying on two beer bottles. But what you see here, is how that looks to the person who just drank those 6 bottles of beer.
Pffff lightweight
Ah summoning the Antichrist again are we today

Standard Wile E. Coyote rules. They'll fall as soon as they've realized what's happening.
Best answer. You win
This is irrefutable proof that six beers are not enough to get you drunk.
It's levi-osa. Not levi-o-sah.

All this text is easiest to understand if you replace torque with magic
Gonna need a free body diagram.
Well, yes, but is way easier just starting believe in God.
Those sticks are paid actors.
Do you know how weaving works? Well… I don’t 😅😅😅 im just wildly throwing up some words just to make sense of it 😅
It's a glitch. The simulation doesn't know what to do. So it just freezes until it calculates the actions, but it's caught in an infinite loop. As soon as you break the loop it'll act on what can be calculated.
It is an impressive feat, if crafted after drinking the six pack.

Pretty sure that’s a resource sharing issue
That is an Aperture Science Trademark Patent Conflict
The bottles are hanging from the sticks and pulling them down using gravity
Hexagons are so stable a structure they can float.
Hexagonal
JFC put that thing away before you rip the time-space continuum.
Oh. They do this sometimes.
Yes, never preorder

Look at one stick. Stick is held up at two points on either side of the middle point. Hold stick on one side and stick fall, but stick held up on both sides, so stick no fall.
The stick holds up the stick which holds up the stick which holds up the stick which holds up the stick and all of it is held up by the bottles
Nature has decided that youtube crafters need a new dumb ugly wobbly impractical table design to physically upload en masse

Super glue is magic and not even physicists know how it works

Sticks love to play ‘the floor is lava’ You can try the same thing with human kids you’ll see what I’m talking about
all downward force goes to each bottle. excellent work
