This morning, I woke up, and my first thought was : 'Wait, if Lift can remove friction, what happens if she Slicks, then drops, a ball?'  There's no friction - just gravity, and lower gravity at that.  Is it unbalanced force if there's just one force?  What happens to the ball?  Does it have terminal velocity?  Does it just keep accelerating until it hits the ground?  What is even going on there? 

Does someone who knows more about physics know what's going on in this situation?

I am not sure what you are confused about.

If Lift Slicks the ball and drops it, then it'll keep on accelerating until it hits the ground.

You made a straight ship!!!

Boys can flirt with you too

I think this is a think any order could do if their spren making up the plate are able to move quickly enough.

 There are, in fact, two Friday the 13ths every single year. 

This is not true, there is at least one and at most 3 Friday the 13th in an year

At least people have flirted with y'all.

I said haunted but yeah, semantics. I recall him mentioning how he saw shadowy figures and often felt like he was being watched. As I was reading Oathbringer, I started wondering if he might be have one of the Unmade or some sort of iniquitous spren following him. as I said, I'm probably way off base. I'm not usually very good at picking up on plot twists and stuff like that. I'm also not as familiar with the rest of the Cosmere and a lot of people on here seem to be so.

He was probably just paranoid because of what happened to his father as well as the continued activity of the Assassin in White but it just seemed to me that there was some foreshadowing going on (or maybe Moash sticking him was the result of said foreshadowing). Again, I'm probably way off and just read into it more than what was there.

Those were merely Cryptics though? He was being scouted for a bond.

6 hours win, Emi

Granted, but as no one else has telepathy, you can effectively only send messages to yourself

I wish for the ability to summon fashionable apparel

You can't do that though, my boon specifically asked to allow me to send messages to anyone

Granted, you now have the power to make Rhythm of War (or any other book you've been waiting for) release early! There's a catch: human sacrifices. For every one person you kill, the release date moves closer by the exact amount of time it took your sacrifice to die after you inflicted the first cut.

Brb, making small cuts on as many terminally ill (and otherwise) people I can.

I wish for all abandoned stories I've read to be completed

Granted, but you have to complete them, and you must do so in the exact way the original author had done.

I wish to have the power of Telepathy, such that I can both send and receive messages, to anyone I wish to, and within my conscious control.

Well, we have now a motivation to stay on the shard for 18 years more!

Hello, Emi and Evi

[incomprehensible] smiled as she let the others play their hands. In these sorts of games, it was much better to bide your time.

What’s your favorite thread?

Do you still *wins* ?

Do you like books?

1. You already asked this one (see just above your post)
2. We can't anymore! I would love to start doing it again though.
3. Yes!! Easily in my top 3 things!

Who's your favorite HPMOR character?

Idk. Plus, this is a really spoilery question.
Also, it's just difficult to decide on a favorite character, there are so many things you can like about them and it just can't be distilled into a simple ranking. But some of my favorite characters are (in no particular order): Dumbledore, Mad-eye Moody, HPJEV, McGonagall, Tom Morfin Riddle, David Munroe, Quirinus Quirrel, Hermione, Neville, etc. etc.

Why am I here?

Why aren’t you online as often?(no wait, don’t answer to that one, I think I already know the answer)

What subject do you hate the most?(and what do you like the most)

Why did you join the Shard?

1. I don't know
2. I actually got a lot more active on the Discord, and the Shard just seems like a lot more work.
3. Uh... languages(especially writing) please don't kill me. I love Maths though. And Physics. Also, Computer Science.
4. Well, I discovered Sanderson in around 2019 July read all of his books I could get my hands on in around 3 months, obsessed over them alone for like seven months and then joined the Shard in May 2020. ( I just had a bunch of hypothesis and questions and I wanted to discuss them, I did not expect the people to be honest)

the oxford dictionary changed the definition of a certain negative word to include Christians, and other dictionaries are doing similar things. I guess it's not the dictionaries that suck, just the people behind them

No, why?

I searched a lot but couldn't find anything about this. Would you mind expanding?
