No, it’s just depressing.

Hypothermia can be a problem in temperatures as high as 50F. 0F is a meaningless number, outside of purely subjective “it’s cold” uses.

That’s as hot as a person can really tolerate.

There’s large chunks of the world proving that false every day. For the geographically impared, the simple fact that Phoenix has existed for longer than air conditioning, proves that statement false.

And 0F as the low point is equally as useless.

For day to day use, it’s just a single number, no one is doing any conversions, etc, with the number. That was my point. There’s nothing to remember. Do you forget what 72F feels like? Do you have to scale it in your head?

When it comes to a single number on a scale, whatever you grew up with will be more “obvious”. 100F doesn’t give me any more information than 38C does. The whole “base 10” thing only matters if you are actually doing some math to that number.

“Intuitive” is a meaningless metric for a single scaled number. Whichever system you are used to will be the more “intuitive”.

Also, climate can play into which system feels more useful. Where I live, 100F occurs only rarely (and since air conditioning is almost ubiquitous, not something I’d bother looking out for), while 0C is an outdoor temperature that I do need to be aware of for half the year.

No one will punish you for not returning the cart

My opinion on this is reason number 8735 why I will never, and should never, be in charge of a country.

Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?

I’m not up to speed on how US tax laws work. What does getting deemed a hobby entail?

The government probably wouldn’t have if both rail lines weren’t shut down simultaneously.

The Teamsters should take a page from the way the UAW/CAW handles the Big Three; focus negotiations on one, then tell the other “here’s the template”.

Keeping the rail lines running is too critical for the government to allow a protracted lockout/strike, but a (non-conservative) government would likely allow far more leeway if only one of the railways are shut at one time.

Nothing says “small government” and “freedom” quite like mass surveillance.

World’s best swap drive.

Things happen by accident or on purpose. No one over the age of 3 should be using “on accident”.

There’s a difference between WMDs that can reach the US, and ones that can only be deployed locally. Russia has the former (and a lot of them), hence no invasion.

It’s also cooler because the temperature is lower.

The two parts are actually Israel and Hamas. If Israel wants peace, there’s not much the US is going to do to force them to keep fighting. And conversely, if Hamas doesn’t want peace, there’s nothing the US can do (short of entering the war directly) to keep Israel from fighting back. It’s all up to Israel and Hamas. The US (and Iran on the other side) are secondary players.

My current tech philosophy is “dumb devices, smart switches”. So many times the “smart” portion of things shits the bed, is rendered obsolete, broken by some other change I made, etc, and then the whole device is rendered useless. Life has gotten so much easier once I dedicated one device to one task.

Could be good for things like the creative writing subreddits, where interaction is secondary

I have zero interest in allowing Chinese automakers to have independent access to the Canadian market as long as long as other auto manufacturers don’t enjoy the same access to the Chinese market.

A lot of people who are staying at those hotels and bothering with the continental breakfast are there for work, not vacation.
