Shouldn't Space Jam get tossed in the R Kelly panel?
I can't let this fly.
I don't think it's a conspiracy, but it is definitely odd.
In my opinion, the headline is very clear.
Of course, generations of humans cooked without thermometers or thermostats. You could cook with the Rankine scale if you get used to it .
But let me just say, I don't think it's an accident France is both the originator of the Metric system and haute cuisine.
Advanced cooking is as much engineering as it is art.
As a metric person, I can confirm.
Indoor temperatures are basically 18-22 for most people most of the time.
15-25 covers the whole range of indoor temperatures that people with functioning heat or A/C would see.
For temperatures outside we commonly round to the nearest five:*
- -5 and below: very cold winter weather
- 0 cold winter weather
- 5 mild winter weather
- 10 autumn weather
- 15 spring weather
- 20 summer weather
- 25 beach weather
- 30 heatwave
- 35 and higher heatwave in the Sahara
The only thing I admire of the Fahrenheit scale is that it can round to the nearest 10 and still be a little bit more precise than Celsius with the nearest 5. And when discussing fever temperatures, Celsius needs half degrees and Fahrenheit does not.
But it's an absolutely awful scale for cooking.
Indeed, sounds like a legitimate win to me.
It's basically a FOSS Chromebook.
Waiting for SBF to respond to this.
This is true, but not everything that gets promoted gets popular. A lot also flunks.
Taylor Swift just happens to hit a sweet spot that appeals to a lot of people.
And music has a self-reinforcing spiral. People listen to music from artists that they like, and which their peers like.
So a popular artist could theoretically release an album without any promotion and it would still become popular, just because people will be curious to listen to the new songs from an artist that they already like (of course, record labels will always heavily promote work from their popular artists to make them even more popular).
Excellent. One step in the right direction. Good guy Germany.
Ehh, you might want to read about the origins of the bakers dozen.
Shrinkflation has been a feature of humanity for a long time, probably ever since we started trading goods.
It's just easier to give less when your buyer would prefer that to paying a higher price.
This is cool enough that all Indo-European languages should start calling salmon Lox again.
With the right strategy and current technology, we should be able to evolve all current Indo-European languages back to a singular language over a thousand years or so. That would unite half the world in language.
A highly noble goal. We could call it, the Lox plan.
Get out of here with your reasonable, scientific explanation!
We want our outrage porn about smoked salmon, dammit!
