Update: it took time. And then a quick pry with a knife. Saved the dishes. Ravioli saved too but for raccoons outside probably lol. What I learned about physics....sheesh.

Heat it to make the air expand

[–] Trihilis@ani.social 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I have no idea what I'm looking at. Wth is a ravioli bowl? A bowl made specifically for ravioli?

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Bowl of ravioli, my bad

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 113 points 1 week ago (3 children)

UPDATE PLEASE. I must know the fate of the dishes.

[–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

OP responded that he microwaved bowl and plate, and that some plastic melted and fused them both.

@Theo@lemmy.world - can we get an after picture?

[–] theo@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I don't think I'm your guy haha. I do not have a ravioli bowl unfortunately.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 1 points 6 days ago

Thank you! I was WAY too invested in this!

[–] Coldcell@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 week ago

It has been 6 hours since OP created the ravioli black hole that will eventually consume our planet. I think of all the wasted years I spent worrying as oblivion heads my way.

[–] Spuddlesv2@lemmy.ca 106 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No one is going to mention that OP has a bowl specifically for ravioli?

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 62 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think it’s just a bowl currently full of ravioli

Well how do you cook ravioli? In your fettuccine bowl?

I'm confused why there is a plate involved at all.

[–] sartalon@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I would guess he had the plate over the bowl, while he was microwaving it, to prevent the little sauce splatters during heating.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

I hope OP learned to use a paper/dish towel from now on if that's the case lmao

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 104 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Hot air cooled, contracted, and created partial vacuum is my guess. Make it hot again and it will unstick, I bet.

Cool one slightly while warming the other.

[–] echo@lemmings.world 42 points 1 week ago (9 children)

Probably sit the bowl in warm water with ice on the plate. That will increase the pressure inside and aide in the separation.

No, warm the whole thing to heat the air inside

Put the whole thing in a pot of water and start bringing it to a slow simmer. This will warm the air inside, expanding it and breaking the suction. I got my stuck blender jar open this way, taking it out as soon as the first tiny bubble escaped and quickly unscrewing it before it could cool.

Hot ass water

Edit: Clarification: Poor hot ass water on it or dunk it in hot ass water

Edit 2, electric boogaloo: This is dependent on the material, according to my mother

[–] admin@sh.itjust.works 38 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Can I use regulat hot water if I don't have access to the ass water?

Someone slept through physics class a few times.

Heat and/or cold would be your friend in this situation.

Personally I would just toss the whole thing in the freezer for the night, but there is a small chance that results in a broken plate in the morning.

If you have an air compressor a blast of air right against the lip of the bowl would probably also pop it off.

Other than that just run hot water over the bowl (or submerge it) and then get the plate cold while being careful to not have the hot water touch the cold plate or visa versa.

Best of luck soldier.

[–] seejur@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wouldnt be the opposite? What's keeping the plates together is vacuum. What it needs is to heat the gas inside to make it expand and reduce the vacuum

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Let me walk you through my 3 different answers.

  1. Shrinking the bowl and the plate at the same time might just pop the seal when left in the freezer all night. It would only take a couple Crystal forming in the right spot to break that seal.

  2. Blasting air into the seal could potentially resolve the pressure difference holding the bowl to the plate or force enough air into the bowl that it actually builds positive pressure inside and that pops the bowl off as well.

  3. Heating the bowl would get it to expand slightly and cooling the plate would make it shrink slightly so doing them at the same time could cause the perfect seal they have formed to shift enough that it allows the pressure to equalize/release.

It's less about heating the gas inside the bowl to reverse the vacuum and it's more about breaking the seal that has formed in the first place.

By "ravioli bowl," do you mean it currently has ravioli in it? If so, put it in the microwave for increments of like 30 seconds.

[–] Red_October@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Pick which one to save and which one to sacrifice. Smash the sacrifice with a hammer to free the other, break them both and realize this is just so like you and every single thing you try to do starts with a half baked plan, then goes off the rails and ruins everything until you've nothing to do but pick up the pieces.

The mildlyinfuriating part is that OP hasn’t posted a resolution.

[–] FreeBeard@slrpnk.net 24 points 1 week ago (21 children)

The power of suction is physically limited. That means it either isn't suction or op is crazy weak. My guess is that the plastic melted (probably not from boiling Temp) or op is strongly exaggerating.

it's a bowl, it's like trying to pick up a gold bar, how are you meant to get ANY leverage on it without using a knife or something?

[–] arin@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Air pressure is insanely high compared to a vacuum
