I picked it up from an episode of Deep Space Nine. Good times.

I thought I was wrong, once. But I was mistaken.

I’ll make an exception for uploaders.

That’s because they banned the accounts.

Anyone who has an account on pornhub deserves their ban.

I’m familiar with both of those words. Ok also familiar with the idea of a lever-arm, and this one is too long for my sense of safety.

If it’s stupid but it works, it’s still stupid, and you’re lucky.

My loyalty is for sale.

Yea, that’s part of why I don’t know for sure if they make cars the way the guy at the top of this thread is describing.

Can’t speak to “required.” But I know it used to be done.

I think what he wants is the front turn signal to wrap around the front, so I can see the left signal from the right quarter.

I’m not aware that this is not the case, but I don’t know that I would have noticed if it was not.

The cultural relationship with time is more important than its absolute measurement.

This was the statement at the top of this discussion. It values the local concept of what time should be over an objective measurement of what time is.

The proposed change wouldn’t cause much of a problem. But the idea under the statement I quoted would.

that is such a small edge case that it’s not necessary to talk about them

Did you manage to overlook this point?

In general, stay out of the ducking way.

I mean we as a group. Some of us will, but they will be decried by the rest of us. Too much, too far, too soon.

If we could all get on the same page, that would be one thing. But it’s like unions, isn’t it? Once man stopping work is just quitting. The whole factory stopping work is industrial action.

kind of my point. Trains need accurately measured time in order to run properly.

Tell that to the trains.

Your last point is wrong, at least as you have stated it. Evaporation time is based on surface area, and the required power is based on volume, but you expressed the amount of water as a length.

Still, metric is way better.

I don’t think we have the stomach to pull that off.

I’d love to be wrong, though.

Everybody isn’t going to lose. All of us will, but the rich assholes are gonna win.

Ah, I see. You are thinking about the properly structured flowchart, not the humorously true one.

Yea, fair enough.
