Ah, they’re warning you they will almost double the regular price after the “sale” ends, how kind.

Yeah, you know things are bad when one of the major manipulator entities in history says you’re manipulating too much

Only $100 billion? That’s like nothing!

Meanwhile I just got into retrogaming (as a PS1 kid) and I’m amazed by how… just all around better old games are, unless you want realistic graphics. You don’t need battle passes and daily quests to have an entertaining experience, just a d-pad and a couple of actions (one can be jump)

I love software that acts without my consent or knowledge while atrophying my brain and wasting tremendous amounts of resources

how do you do Amazon non-commercially?

Several smaller alternatives rather than one giant go-to

Don’t make me miss the good timeline like that

No mention of virgin keyboard backlight vs chad overhead ThinkLight?

The second law?

Please explain how there can be a cold zone in boiling water, I’m dying to learn.

Whoa that’s a lot of being butthurt about nothing.

I’m just saying, if you’re going to make a scale that is defined by body temperature, why tf would you make that point 98.6 or 96 instead of 100? The “you need to remember 37” argument doesn’t make much sense if you need to remember 98.6 does it?

You’d have to control a lot of factors to make sure it’s not any hotter than it necessarily needs to be.

Uh… if you can get liquid water hotter than 100°C without adding other substances or pressure you should go claim your Nobel prize or wizard robe.

Terrible point? The body temperature is literally the upper defining point of the scale. Except that Fahrenheit chose that point to be 96, and he was still wrong.

the people would never win because they’d be fighting the American empire’s forces

I think the US has been great at spreading the “we are so invincibly powerful” narrative, but, how would that actually work? Do you see the US military carpet-bombing their own cities? A nuke here and there?

Soldiers, in the end, are people. No matter how MAGA they can be, I bet most would think twice about bombing their own country and countrymen.

No that’s not petty, that’s disgraceful. 44 foreign people have given their lives for your interests. They gain nothing from this.

Until it is

Shout out to Reticulum and LXMF, I think they deserve a lot more attention.

Boiling water is full of pockets of steam that may be higher than 100C, and will have cold spots too.

No it won’t, who told you that? That’s not how thermodynamics works

where’s this “freezing water” you can stick your thermometer into, that’s reliably == 0 degrees? Ice keeps getting colder, and melted water can be any temperature above 0.

A substance undergoing phase change will hold its temperature until the change is complete. That means that once water starts freezing, it will be 0°C until it is all ice. Same goes for ice thawing. Yes only pure H2O will freeze at exactly 0°, but unless you deliberately put some shit in it it will be very, very, very close. Boiling is a bit more sensitive, but still a lot less than the natural variance between body temperatures in normal conditions.

You’re taking the procedure literally, but it was just to get a point across. Also, using the freezing and water boiling points of water was used to define Fahrenheit too for most of the 20th century.
