That’s where you find the bisexual she/theys in hetero relationships.

This is correct. Everyone in the US calls a kcal a calorie. I learned to distinguish them with big “C” and little “c”, but I’ve just looked it up and this is apparently not so common. I guess ppl who are aware of these things just go with the SI unit of kJ.

What are the police trying to prevent that’s worse than someone getting killed?

Do you think it’s more cuz of drivers on their phones, pedestrians on their phone or equal parts both?

That one episode of Rick and Morty ruined all heist movies for me forever.

And where do you even go? Civic centers, bowling alleys etc are dead. Moderate churches are disappearing. Car centric everything means if you have a disability or not much money you’re screwed.

That’s a good point. We can start with what we control by not buying crap from them directly.

This list aligns pretty well with mine… It’s easier and more satisfying than you expect to boycott companies like amazon.

I found the American

Fahrenheit has too much precision. Humidity makes the difference between a degree F virtually meaningless. 0-100 is nice but then the minus degrees don’t mean anything. In F you go from already fucking cold to even colder. You can think of C being 0-30 with minus being a threshold of more serious cold, poor road conds etc. Celsius is more elegant than it might first appear. Also using it is less confusing and cringey for non-USians.

My brother in Christ, finding a different service isn’t the difficultly. It’s moving everyone else. Fb holds the keys to a network of literally billions of ppl, which for many is the only feasible way of keeping in contact with their loved ones. Yes if everyone just left the enshittificated network suddenly and all went to the same place… but you need incentives, alternatives and coordination. “if everyone would just…” could solve a lot of problems, but we need to find realistic pathways to get there. Also your tone sucks, maybe open a window and let some fresh air in. I’ll do the same.

It may not be fb’s fault directly, but they hold the keys to an enormous resource which should be properly regulated. Telling op to just make the choice ignores the structural issue at hand. It’s a bit like saying if you don’t like all the problems of your country, just emigrate. That’s everyone’s choice, but it isn’t practical as a general solution. Emigrating in a digital sense is far easier, but do we wait for these common goods to be enshittificated and reinvented or can we skip some suffering and seize control already.

Isn’t that incredible? Turns out that connecting people to one another in this way fosters some healthy interaction for those who choose it but also amplifies loads of unhealthy bs. I’m one of those idiots who 15 years ago thought the internet and social media would bring about something of a second enlightenment, a golden area of progressivism, being well-informed, connected to one another in new and beautiful ways.

It applies even less in Turkish thanks to bir (1), üç (3) and dokuz (9)

If it makes your day, here’s an excellent mashup: https://youtu.be/MKXp17Udsjk?si=nJosSc9_vxwOodi9

I watched the first 10-15 episodes, but I couldn’t continue because it was just so dialog dense. There’s maybe 10 total seconds of episode without someone talking, which made it feel more like an animated table read. That dialog is witty af, but just let me think and enjoy it for a moment here and there.

He reignnnnnns…
