- Comment on What does this emoji mean? Is this a British thumbs up? 4 weeks ago:
Bold of you to assume I live in the USA. Consider that this is a very well known symbol in more island nations than just Hawaii. Unicode is allowed name things wrong and they very often do. It’s ultimately the proposal to the Unicode consortium that names the emoji.
Take it to mean whatever you want but saying that shakas is a purely US thing is insulting to it. Think about how long the telephone has existed in comparison to islanders…

Dont need to have heard the term. Just need to know it’s rough meaning. Some people really think it means “call me” which while a valid interpretation also messes with its actual meaning
- Comment on What does this emoji mean? Is this a British thumbs up? 4 weeks ago:
The amount or people that dont know about shakas is killing me. No culture

Nah. This is asset streaming. E.g model data. Not video

The next flight aim is gonna lean even heavier into streaming. So not just landscape but also plane models will be streamed. So this is gonna get worse not better

It does stop the second the door opens. No idea if this change fixes that too tho
- Comment on American Airlines Flight Attendants Just Won Boarding Pay 1 month ago:
That is a huge deal. They should be paid from the minute they enter the airport but this is at least a step in the right direction. Another W for unions
- Comment on Ubisoft comes crawlin' back to Steam 1 month ago:
But unlike valve the console R&D is limited to the consoles themselves. Valve is working to improve gaming for Linux in general and foster a more open and consumer friendly console system.

Top comment explains it. It’s because of the cyan that it looks red. It’s the complementary primary color

I haven’t heard of the biting in humans being as prevelant as in animals. But they certainly get more aggressive and loose control

And don’t forget the slow and almost certain agonising death of rabies for which we have no cure

Trust me. You don’t want to know. It’s fucked up parasite shit. On the same level as the fungus that takes over ants.

Are you made of mostly empty space? Your response does leave me questioning. Please aknoowledge that you are made of 64% water and not 4°k nothing.
- Comment on temperature 8 months ago:
Tell that to Germany who have now hit 42° during summer thanks to global warming. If you really think that it’s a tiny minority that live in climates who experience those temperatures then you are not very well travelled. Note also that a lot of countries have a real temperature <38 but thanks to the humidity it feels >38. Farenheit is just another temperature scale. There is nothing more intuitive about it than any other scale. If we were always told the temperature in kelvin we would think that to feel the most natural.
Just accept that we like our scales because they are familiar and not because they are better.
- Comment on temperature 8 months ago:
Sorry im clearly not your average person experiencing >38° on a regular basis. There are plenty of humans that exist in climates that fall entirely outside of what you Americans consider “normal”. Which is why saying “-18 - 38 is the ‘normal’ range for an average person” is such an American thing to say. You took your own climate and projected it across the world.
Personally I like to go with the system that makes the most sense for 70% of earth’s surface and 64% of a human body.
