Same. I hate presidential trivia!

Hey how did you copy the score and emojis? When I got to share my score it just copies a link to the page?

they contain a significant amount of added fats, oils, and other things to make them softer and more gooey. However, they still contain a significant amount of cheese.

He can't even, it used to be a widespread problem

Super Castlevania 4 is the best of those early ones. Rondo is pretty good also but very hard. People find charms in the first 3 but they're a bit rough.

If you prefer the Symphony lineage, the gameboy collections are very good. Not every game is brilliant but it's amazing value.

Are you suggesting the legal argument ad quod damnum: that it was, in legal fact, all fun and games until someone got hurt?

I believe the Fahrenheit scale was originally set up for 100° to be human body temperature. We're just built colder now I guess? I had to look up what zero was and apparently he originally set it at the coldest the air had ever been around his village, but later had to standardize it and so cooked up some brine that froze at 0°.

I would propose that 100 should be calibrated around the wet bulb temperature, which I think is around 105°F but varies with humidity. That's the temperature where sweating doesn't cool you off any more, so any temperature 100 or more is deadly to most people. I like 0 being freezing for water, seems sensible and is also a good "prolonged exposure to this or lower will kill you" cutoff point.

Programmers after slacking off for two days to improve their factories in Shapez2 because they already automated all their tasks.

If changing requirements mean you need to update the script, then updating the script is part of your job. QED. I don't see the problem with a little job security.

I'm slightly irritated that the layout of the diegetic comic is different from the real one.

Damn, that was incredible! Thanks for sharing. What a speech, that one should really be more widely known, but i can see why it doesn't get taught in the US.
