Not sure why you assumed I didn’t already know that (I did), but thanks for the completely pointless off topic essay I guess

Yeah I hate when I have to convert temperatures between systems, and then the nice round numbers that represent common values used in everyday life like 0, 20, 30, 40, and 100 become absolutely nonsensical values like 32, 68, 86, 104 and 212

Metric measurements are only decimals in North America because things are fabricated to be round imperial numbers for the American market. When you buy a piece of lumber in Europe it’s cut to 45x95mm which (shockingly) converts to the absolutely nonsensical 1.77165x3.74016 inch two by four

Fermentation releases an order of magnitude more CO2 than you put back into it when you carbonate it

The AGPL license allows the license holder to specify additional terms of the license that require preservation of specified reasonable attributions or legal notices - this is covered in 7B, and the onlyoffice license specifies that the logo must be preserved for attribution.

Assuming a logo legally counts as reasonable attribution (IANAL) that would put only office in the right here, but holy shit, the fact that the license allows these modifications to be put on line #655 rather than line #2 is absurd. I, like most people I assume, only read far enough into the license to figure out whether it’s MIT or GPL

Heated Rivalry

I only took a cursory glance but a lot of that belongs to the UI framework (svelte)

Similar to react/vue, it’s used to render the content on the page, and automatically update what’s shown on the page when variables change value. This basically replaced jquery and the callback-hell that was mid-2000s web development

Euphoric

Yes it is. No cones = no color.

Achromatopsia is not the same as deuteranomaly, where you have less functional cones and see some, albeit muted colors

They said “larger proportion”, and 2% is larger than 1%

Rod monochromacy (achromatopsia)

Achromatopsia is when you don’t have any cones. This is true color blindness. You won’t see any colors, and will probably have reduced or low vision and other complications.

I worked in a fruit fly lab for years during grad school, so I’m pretty much fucked

Or just… teach them? play movie.mkv isn’t rocket science.

Instructions on how to switch to HDMI 1 are currently taped to the back of my mom’s TV remote

Stomach acid is like 10,000,000x more acidic than most alkaline water is basic. Dilution is probably doing an order of magnitude more work than the hydroxide here (meaning just drink more tap water)

If you’ve had chicken pox before and have had mysterious pain/tingling on an arm/leg on the same side of the body as those for the past few days it could be shingles

I just had it at 33 last week and it looked very similar to that when it first popped up

For a second I had this confused with the Toronto mayoral election, where the former sex pest mayor is rumored to be considering re-running against the person who supplanted him last election

Southern Australian springtime swimmers who properly update their Bayesian priors know that sharks are the true danger, NOT lightning strikes or plane crashes

I feel like the only people who have issues with coffee and taco bell are people with bad diets to begin with, e.g. so bad that the soluble fiber in Coffee is like 100% of their dietary intake

I was like you, until my mid-30s hit

Now buffalo wings will have me waking up at 3am with acid reflux even though I didn’t even register spice while I was eating them 6 hours earlier

“[…] In exchange for a waiver of fees accrued since 2023”

Sounds like Oracle got them with the good 'ol “buy an even bigger license or we’ll sue you”

There are low powered FM transmitters you can get for your car

FM transmitter plugs into cigarette lighter for power

iPod connects to FM transmitter via AUX cord

You tune your cars radio to whatever frequency the transmitter is set to, and it plays whatever your iPod is playing
