Fuck it. I’m inventing a new scale.

Behold! “Disagree Degrees”. We’re going to combine the best traits of the other units. No more searching for the stupid little degree character in the character map. D for degrees or disagrees - whatever, I don’t give a shit.

0D = 0K (Like Kelvin, no negatives! That’s so dumb!) 0.4D = -40 C and -40 F 1D = Water Freezing point (Need a consistent point of scale) 10D = “Pleasant temperature” 100D = Kind of hot 500D = Really hot for people (>40C or >100F) “It’s like 500 disagrees out there!” 1000D= Water boiling (To match the freezing temp) 1,000,000,000,000D = Surface of the sun

Good luck on the math converting to other units, this temperature scale isn’t about being useful for nerd stuff, it’s all about appealing to our emotions.

Yeah, I can imagine the locals would tell the younglings “don’t play near the Sarlaac Pit! It’ll eat you for a thousand years!”

Well we know Tatooine orbits a pair of stars somehow and it’s still in the Goldilocks zone just enough to make it semi habitable still. My assumption is that these are white dwarfs or something smallish.

Could this be explained that the local year is much shorter? Add in that Hutt is well versed in his own biology which assuming a he isn’t strangled by a tentacle, could be slowly digested alive for a 1000 Tatooine years? He probably forgets that about his pathetic cute biped pets.

No seriously what is significant about 0F? I live in a place that sees a lot of negative F too.

It’s so arbitrary. If it was 0 at freezing water and 100 at human body temp I’d understand it but no, it’s literally nothing significant in people’s lives. It has no tangible anchor.

It’s purely emotion keeping it around.

The meme faces are backwards on this one.

LED lighting. Usually can adjust to whatever color lighting you like. Pure aesthetic value, no actual benefit to the performance of the machine itself.

Break up the mega corps. Enact user privacy-by-default laws. Market dominance via “free product” followed up by bait and switch tactics should be outlawed.

And my axe!

IMO, another good reason to not use Google!

I remember as kids, at some point my brother was just grabbing one of these before we went to school instead of making a lunch. It was a few years later by the time we were adults and I remarked how it must have been weird going into the teacher lounge to find a kettle or microwave or whatever when I learned, no, he’d open the bag and snack on it like a bag of chips.

Okay, reasonable enough, I had read your response as “no solar, just homes and put the solar in rural”.

How so? A) Less transmission lines to where it’s needed and b) more qualified/trained staff centralized to the solar installs.

I’m not against rural solar by any stretch but I can’t fathom being against urban solar? We need to solar all the things.

I’ve been running a pair of Sennhesiser PC 350’s for something like 10 years now? Not sure. I used to game a lot more than I do now and eventually the ear cushions started falling apart. I was dreading replacing them though, and ended up getting some replacement cushions from Amazon or something. Was super easy to replace and they’ve been like new for the last year now. I’m a hardwire all of the things type person, and generally a cheapass so yeah, overall happy with this purchase!

I grew up with PB in the cupboard. *Never *had a problem with it. My wife on the other hand, PB goes in the fridge. She swears it tastes bad if it’s not kept in the fridge. Other than taking up more space, I’m not going to argue with the person that is most likely to eat the stuff.

You sunnavabitch take this upvote!

That’s how I usually interpret it except in Godzilla Minus One :

Not to mention, most of these trucks are very standardized in their dimensions and parts already. This is probably the biggest thing that will hurt small vehicles is picking a subset of standardized dimensions that will fit multiple models.

Tried disabling the mail/cal client and see if it still does it in barebones Vivaldi?

I recently had to disable mail on an instance in a Windows machine. As I had a few accounts on it to test functionality a few weeks ago, I had forgotten about it. It was holding at about 60% cpu the last couple of days and I couldn’t figure it out until I searched the forums for this issue. Solved it for me and I’ll be trying other email clients anyway.

It is their prerogative. They (and Arrowhead) fucked up with Helldivers by removing and then retroactively requiring it. By the time I got the game though it was already required for new players again.

If it means we can cross play to their console I’m fine with it (a feature I wanted). For a single player game it’s annoying but as long as it costs nothing I don’t care anymore.

I do feel strongly that we need some consumer protections though - and this extends beyond games alone. Any server shutdown (authentication or gameplay affecting) should have a mandatory removal of the requirement or opening of the server to self host. But I digress…
