Reply to comment by Stopa42 in 5 second toaster and kettle by F1NNTORIO
Why accept the limitations of the house wiring? You don't need to *source* 336 Kj of energy in 5 seconds, you need to *deliver* that much energy to the water in 5 seconds...
If your kettle had a large capacitor that charged up over, say 30 minutes, and maintained that charge. You could pour water into it, retreat to a minimum safe distance, and trigger the kettle remotely with an app on your phone....

Reply to TIL the US federal government captures and sells excess wild horses to the public by MoistCoyote
I've ridden tamed mustangs before. They can be excellent horses, sturdy, healthy, easy to keep, and if they spend a few winters in the wild, they don't easily spook.
