Most.

Doesn't matter, everyone should brush, at least 2 times a day. And don't forget to floss!

Shutting down FM broadcasting doesn't mean shutting down radio; if you read the link, you'll see that DAB is taking it's place in those places.

That doesn't help much if your country has shut down FM broadcasting though.

Or ensuring the spool is still useful 15 years later while everything has migrated to SFP/QSFP

Nah, the remaining spool will be useful for the rest of its/your lifetime, it always comes in handy as a generic 4-pair twisted pair signal cable for any non-ethernet purpose. I've used my old spool twice this year; first for an m-bus cable to my power meter and then for a limit switch for my garage door.

you were trying to be sarcastic, but instead you have...

Lol no, I know better than trying to be sarcastic online, I was making the same point as you (although less eloquently). Wholeheartedly agree with what you said!

From my experience in Norway, these are typical in context of daily speech: (...) km, m, dm (kinda rare), cm, mm

Don't forget the Scandinavian mile! You and the Swedes use it all the time.

Still talking about R

To be fair, I haven't seen that much talk about R over here, I think most people have moved on to Python or even Matlab.

Barely an inconvenience.

E.g. I have a plethora of grapes. We should stop using the term plethora because they could just say “a lot.”

That reminds me of the old joke:

A widow was holding a funeral for her husband, when a man asked if he could say a word. "Of course" said the widow, so he stood up and exclaimed "plethora!". The widow replied "thanks, that means a lot".
