That’s really interesting thanks

Woooooah, man, but what if you put some weeeed in there man….
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
Not sure what you’re saying? You seem upset about life or something,
Are you having a bad day? feel free to vent…
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
Ok, perhaps you are hearing a cacophony of other insects, or your hearing is different than mine.
Yes, I am a bitch but that is neither here nor there, but I can clearly hear a wave pattern with the chirps as I sit outside on my front porch, and I already knew about this cool way to measure the temperature in Fahrenheit… obviously, we already know whether we are too hot or too cold without knowing the exact temperature though… it’s just a fun factoid when you’re camping
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
From Wikipedia: ——————— Several accounts of how he originally defined his scale exist, but the original paper suggests the lower defining point, 0 °F, was established as the freezing temperature of a solution of brine made from a mixture of water, ice, and ammonium chloride (a salt).[2][3] The other limit established was his best estimate of the average human body temperature, originally set at 90 °F, then 96 °F (about 2.6 °F less than the modern value due to a later redefinition of the scale).[2] ———-
Any measurement of temperature is going to be relative to the atmospheric pressure among other variables… I’m not a scientist but Celsius is just as random… it may make more sense because freezing water and boiling water make sense to you with a refrigerator and stove… for most of human history this would not have made any sense……
There’s uses of metric that make a lot more sense, it is not my intention to defend imperial systems of measurement or whatever they are called, it is interesting to me though….
What are the measurements we can define where if we met a completely alien race from another solar system where we could immediately agree on the system… that’s probably the best one lol
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
Only in the sense that knowing the exact temperature on an arbitrary scale is utterly useless. Even Celsius scale is arbitrary, I guess it does use one molecule at an arbitrary atmospheric pressure as a loose guide though…
Is it always 100 degrees Celsius in a vacuum? Because water boils in a vacuum.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
No, they all chirp together, that’s kind of why they do it, maybe their are other insects chirping if you are in a more rural area like locusts or something that chirp really fast?
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 3 days ago:
I dunno, out of all the uses of metric system, Fahrenheit seems the more logical than the rest…
Metric temperature as Celsius is just as random as any other made up system of temperature measurement. Fahrenheit used the temperature of the human body to create his system, which makes a lot more sense than other systems.

Are you trying to suggest that driving at higher speeds is safer than driving at lower speeds? Because that goes against the laws of physics

In the case of traffic, keeping a larger following distance can quite literally solve the stop and go break waves that occur…
Trying to race ahead and get ahead by one car at a time makes the problem worse.
That’s all this is saying.
You can not solve the problem ahead of you, you can only affect the traffic behind you.

Keep beating your straw man I guess

You’re quite literally incorrect and talking out of your ass

You are incorrect. You are the cause of the traffic jam lol, literally.

Messing with the military industrial lobbying…… Swiss tariffs dropping to zero in 3, 2, 1……

A hundred million dollars is 10% of one billion.
$100,000,000 is only ten percent of a billion dollars.

It’s all relative. Define big.

- Comment on Trump says Philippines will pay 19% tariff while US pays no tariffs under deal with leader Marcos 1 month ago:
Doesn’t this lower priced for products versus local while making our products more expensive over there? Trump is stupid as fuck…. I’m sure there are reasons why we would have these random numbers in other circumstances… but I’m 90% sure these are literally just random numbers of tariff percents…

The kids who tease have severe insecurities, they are dodging and deflecting and pointing at other kids so that no one looks at them

It’s not worth it but give your kids whatever sheltered life you want
