My step length is 0.8m. After taking 25 steps, I have travelled 20m (roughly 65feet). 5 times that is 100m. 10 times that is 1km. Notice how easy those numbers are to multiply and divide. And notice how much easier it is to take regular steps than heel-to-toe steps. You know you could memorize how big your body parts are in metric too, right?
I’d argue that the only reason your preferred units are easier for you is because you are familiar with them.
Sounds like it’s almost bailout time again.
What does “left behind” even mean? Honestly, it sounds nice.
Not if I never travel to that shithole country again.
Dude, you can write in any qualified candidate on your ballot. All idiot Americans would have to do is have someone get qualified and spread the word to vote for them. I mean, it wouldn’t be easy but you could break out of your stupid two-party system if you wanted.
OMG the irony of using AI to rail against the use of AI.
My Mom once said to me, “Be good, but if you can’t be good, be careful.”
The principal of my small-town high school heard kids talking about pump jack parties. He thought we were going out to a pump jack to get drunk and ride the pump jacks. Apparently, in his day, that’s what kids did. He brought in a guest speaker from a local oilfield company to talk to the senior students about the dangers of doing that.
We were dumbfounded by the talk because none of us had ever thought to ride a pump jack. What we called a pump jack party was just when a specific couple parked their car in the country to have sex.
Older people in the community have since confirmed that riding pump jacks was indeed a thing.
For me it’s the idea that by interacting with social media I’m working to generate profit for a billionaire-led company.
Calm down. It’s probably not as dramatic as that. It’s just that the billionaires need the AI cockroach swarms to deliver fresh children to their bunkers during the uprising. The humanoid and canine robots will do most of the exterminating.
I’m waiting for a used EV. I’ve never bought a new vehicle and have no desire to.
Yeah. What am I supposed to do with these burls?
What if there’s a … um … protuberance on the bottom where the branch meets the trunk? What’s the correct measuring procedure in that case?
Look at all those fake app ratings and reviews on the Google Play Store. I wonder how much that cost.
WTF is going on? I’ve never seen an ad in my Nova Launcher. I’ll switch immediately if I ever see one. Did they add them to widgets? Does this only apply to the free version?
Where I live there’s a lumberyard that specializes in cedar. Oh my dog! It’s amazing in there.
