I went down a huge rabbit hole cause of this. I personally like °F over °C but agree it’s arbitrary. So I tried to make a scale that started at the coldest air temp on earth (some day in Antarctica) and went to the hottest day on earth (some day in death valley) and put the coldest day at 0°A and the hottest at 100°A.

Sadly this made a scale that was less precise than I’d like. I like that I can feel the difference between 73°F and 74°F and don’t want to have to use decimals.

So maybe the end points could be only places where people actually live. Well it looks like some people live in Russia around -70°C and some people live in northern Africa around 50°C so if you just take °C and add 60 you can get a -10 to 110 scale where most temps would fall between 0 and 100. Still has the unit difference of °C (which I don’t like) but I like that most temps are between 0 and 100. I also don’t really like negative temperature since it seems wonky.

To “fix” the unit scale you could just multiply everything by 2 so the difference between each full degree is half as much. So temps would be between -20 and 220. °A = 2(°C + 60) °A = 2(°C) + 120

And it turns out I (basically) created the Fahrenheit scale but moved. °F= 1.8(°C) + 32

TL;DR: I’m stupid and this was fun but also a waste of time lol

Yeah I’m not sure either. He used to do science-y videos before I started watching and I think his political videos really caught the algorithm which changed what kind of content he made for sure.

Thanks for the plug! I’ll definitely check them out. I’ve been missing that kinda stuff since all the “Breadtube” people make 2 hour long videos with long breaks now haha

Pretty sure it was the "We need to talk about ‘Authoritarianism’ " video. I’d have to rewatch it to find what I found objectionable at the time lol

If it makes you feel any better, I was even later than you to stop watching. I didn’t know about any of that Nebula stuff and only found out when one of his videos was so insane I had to go see how other people felt about it.

I’m still using one with a jack (Asus ROG 5)

And front facing speakers!

Yeah! For us it was me (male) and my girlfriend who have been together 5ish years at the time and we met a girl who we really meshed with and became good friends with. Our friends joked around that we should just all date each other since we hung out so much. One day we got drunk and admitted we’d be open to it so we asked each other out and have been a throuple since!

Most of our friend group is very accepting. Our families, however, are not lol.

I’m in a poly throuple and we play these games:

-League of Legends

-Super Mecha Champions (It’s like Apex but with bots and the real players aren’t as good so we don’t get absolutely crushed every time we play which is nice)

-Stardew Valley

-Eternal Return (League + Battle Royale)

-Divinity 2

-Overcooked

-Borderlands

-FF14

-Tabletop Simulator (Board Games)

I kept my phone number from a different state so everyone that calls from that area code can be ignored. I also have AT&T’s ActiveArmor app (free) and it blocks most of them. I used to get 2-4 a day but I’m down to 1ish a week now.

Answering vs not answering didn’t really ever make a difference for me, but I’ve heard lots of things like don’t answer and they’ll think the line isn’t real or answer but play the do Do DO sound effect or answer but leave it silent. Not sure if any will help.

Map changes yesssssss

I’m excited but also scared he’s gonna be pro-bound and have to sit at a low winrate to make up for how versatile he can be.

Him being worse than the alternative. Electoralism won’t fix anything, though…

As a person living in Alabama, I think my efforts are best spent on trying to get ANYONE but Tuberville elected for our military members but that election isn’t until '26

Lmao I hope this is a joke. I live in AL and I’ll have some explaining to do to my gf…

Minimizing to tray by default when you hit the x button.

Especially when there is no way to change the behavior.

Purely commenting on the TikTok and not the article:

“… career fair aimed at women and non-binary tech workers…” and then there’s a TikTok that says “A conference for (wo)men by women” and “the allies are totally allying”

So do only female presenting nonbinary people count?

(I know if you read the article that it says there was an increase in the number of self identifying males but how would the TikToker know that? The TikToker is just looking at the crowd and assuming that the place is overrun with men without actually checking if they’re NB.)

"But there are concerns that programs like this can incentivize spammy posting, or ‘engagement bait.’ "

The cryptocurrency subreddit started this a while back with their Moons and it completely changed how the whole subreddit worked. The monetary incentive seems to ruin any sort of natural engagement.

“Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher, head of the California Labor Federation, said driverless trucks are dangerous…” Well are they dangerous? Is there any data to back up that claim? And is there data to back up the claim that keeping the driver in the vehicle makes it safe again?

I hate this “save the jobs” attitude. How about we not save the jobs and pay them to get other jobs or even pay them to stay home?
