• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tiddies are nice but the metric system is better⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I redefined 1yd as 1m so 1km = 1000yd = 1kyd

  1000 yd = 3000ft + 1000hd = 3333ft + 1hd

  I think the inch-feet conversion is used more often than the feet-yard conversion, so I kept the 12:1 and broke the 3:1

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tiddies are nice but the metric system is better⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They could be more metric. Just imagine this wonderful reality:

  • 1 inch = 2,5cm
  • -> 1 hand = 10cm
  • 1 foot = 30cm
  • 1 yard = 1 m (=3ft+1hd)
  • 1 pound = 500g = ½kg
  • 1 thou = 25μm

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon's class fails expectations⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The sad truth is, that even a percentage of the class could have it really good under the system. Just an arbitrary group would disappear (let’s say all names starting with L). If one overlooked the horror the system can still be popular.

  The lesson would be that popular is not moral.

  Ballet, gymnastics and figure skating are amazing. It’s unfair they only get attention by weird posts like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You hate Corporate Memphis eh?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Corporate memphis would’ve been fine if it wasn’t - you know - corporate. If it had lined the halls of youth hostels like those dancy rubber guys it would’ve been just another quirky minimalist art style.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨German joke⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, our humour and our everyday conversation is chock full of wordplay. Obviously it’s hard to detect the humour if one doesn’t speak the language. Humour is a nuanced thing anyways and also plays with cultural associations.

  For example if I were with friends in a pub and only ordered one beer and someone asked me why and I replied: “I muss fei spare” , the text itself isn’t funny
  (I have to save money).
  But it would be funny because I said it in a slight Swabian accent and because of the cultural association of Swabians being penny pinchers.
  It wouldnt be hilarious mind you, just a little funny to spice up conversation. How would one translate or even understand that?

  Besides the point, but: I have yet to see ai take jobs.

  The misguided belief in ai is costing jobs.

  But that’s also pedantry from my part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon meets the candy man⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The shopkeeper is partly to blame. Where I’m from, nowadays, there are laws about age of purchase. 7 and older you can buy small stuff that are reasonable for a child to be buying with their pocket money (vendors’ common sense is needed here). 14 and older they can fully buy stuff on their own (except for age restricted items obvs).

  They don’t need to. If they passed the nuts over a shaky conveyor to collect those tasty expensive deshelled nuts, they’d have bulking shells for free.
