yeah, I mean some eutectic brine of ice, water, and camel piss salt seems pretty scienticious to me

if anything, three barleycorns laid end to end might be more sensible lol

eh, that's all so vibes based and varies so widely by climate as to be meaningless IMO. its like saying meters are less intuitive than inches and feet because a meter is too big and a centimeter is too small to be human scale. Boils down to what you grew up with IMO

I actually do think it's "better" in one way that isn't completely vibey though: 1 degree F is a lot closer to the difference in air temperature that humans will notice, so especially for like, indoor air, its nice to have that extra resolution to see the difference between 68, 69, 70 F without using a decimal point.

nah that only works on cops

NYPD would have a mass havana syndrome and everyone else would be fine

how so?

arbitrarily setting the freezing point of water to 32 and the boiling point to 212 and then filling in the rest from there isn't what I'd call "making sense"

I guess they're 180 apart but why 32, why not 0 and 180?

fyi your venmo is getting fucked with:

not since the nexus one in 2010. Your data belongs on Google servers, not local storage

yeah this is very true, although not universal. It's just worth at least researching ahead of time, or being prepared to try it out and return it if it doesn't work (which might involve significant shipping costs). Or just going with a US market device if that all seems like too much of a pain.

I bought a primarily chinese-market aimed device (low end and kinda old, so not directly comparable to a relatively new smartphone but still), and it does not have the correct LTE bands to get T-mobile or the VoLTE profiles for Verizon, so its definitely not an ideal experience though I have gotten some use out of it still. I haven't tried ATT but I don't think it will be better (and ofc MVNOs all piggyback off of the above)
