Just in case you ever wondered what would happen if you put your hand in liquid nitrogen:

That's pretty cool. And a bit foolish
-
Should be noted that this is all the effect that means that liquid nitrogen is worthless for cooling CPUs. It vaporizes so fast that the CPU doesn't get a chance to have its heat carried away. Hence why we knew instantly that Liquid Nitrogen Overclocking was a scam.

LNO!
OMG that was so funny/sad back when it happened. -
It would have been nothing but funny if community management wasn't getting infuriated that people were not attempting to placate a paying customer, even when they had been warned that it was a scam before the advertising started. That made it just sad. It could have been just a good time had that not happened.

@Dashrender Yes. Pets don't like to be left alone for extended periods of time.... (Read: My house is like an episode of Tom & Jerry while we are gone).

And what did we do for 1000's of years before this invention?

Tortured pets like prisoners who didn't know what their crime was.

1000's of years ago many pets were used for labor and hunting... so that really doesn't apply. We have to keep our small dog in a cage during the day because her separation anxiety is at epic levels.

You can say that about any new invention. What did we do before figuring out clothes, toilet paper or fire. Humans survived. But it doesn't change the fact that life improved afterwards. Just because something is new and wasn't required for survival before doesn't imply that it isn't good or improves life.

For 1000's of years we did not leave the animals locked up alone in a small house for hours at a time.
