Amazing to see Hot Wheels change from gas to hybrid to EV over the years.

Fun fact: decibels are exponential; A 180 db sound would be the loudest thing ever recorded (the krakatoa volcano was 172) and after 194 db it ceases to be sound and becomes a shockwave.

.world and .ml are servers. I’d recommend choosing a server related to your topic (programming.zone if it’s comp sci related, for example), and try to avoid piling into the largest ones (.world and .ml, etc.).

Do you mean abominations? lol.

A more powerful local transmission may be considered jamming. I’m not sure, so look up relevant law beforehand.

Also isn’t LoRa proprietary/patent encumbered?

• gmail you can forward all mail to another account.
• Youtube, you could try following your subscriptions via RSS/ATOM feed reader. It’s honestly just like regular YT but without the recommendation engine.

Fair. I just learned about and like PeerTube so far (activitypub federated video hosting), but it’s has even more infantile adoption than Lemmy does. I don’t know that anyone I follow on youtube posts there, and if they do I don’t know how to find them.

I think the panic around analog clocks comes from the scenario where you have to explain what clockwise and counterclockwise is. I have personally seen someone eventually removed from a workgroup because they couldn’t understand it.

Not that analog clocks matter, but that was an easy way to teach direction in cylindrical coordinates. What can we use now for that?

What was the book?

Ok, that’s what I’ll do. Thanks so much for the info! 😁

The world if metric began in base 12:

I have a friend who argues that “it’s just as good, there’s no difference really”. Then we go camping and have to do a unit conversion on how much water to boil and it takes 2 minutes and a phone calculator.

I had to check the math because 1 m² being 2300 kg while 1 cu ft at 143 lbs seemed crazy, but with the volume difference it’s all correct.

Thank you for putting in the effort 🙃

Good and interesting question. I bet you could test it by using static (high entropy) as a background vs the control plain color.

Most just don’t know how to properly file their W-4 to not have taxes withheld in the first place.

How do you do this? How do you calculate what to personally withhold and pay? Is it simply calculating through the income tax?
