No, just no. If you want strangers to take what you say seriously then you should show the simplest respect by supporting your claims with the reason(s) you have them. Laziness is flapping your mouth off and expecting to not have to back it up.

They didn’t disagree with it. They asked you why. Answer the reasonable query or accept that the obvious ‘because I crave attention’ will be what everyone is thinking.
Yup. At least with Space-X the message seems to be ‘a variable that changes things with the space industry’. ‘X’ is just… a meaningless letter. My favourite is the meme that tweets will now be called Xcretes.
If you use Ublock you can use this filter to clean Shorts from Youtube (FTR you only need 2 lines near the bottom that have the word ‘short’ in them, but Lemmy formatting is balls so it’s all or nothing):

What is the natural science reason to wear blue light eyeglasses instead of just turning one’s computer display’s blue lights off
Other situations where there is blue light are also out of scope just as the overall harm caused by blue light.
Your question becomes ‘why wear eyeglasses to filter blue light when there is no blue light?’ The answer is “Science doesn’t say that”.
The reason is that the assumption ‘no other light sources aside from the screen’ is almost impossible to control for. You’d have to be in a room with no daylight coming in and zero other blue light sources emitting from say a smartphone, clock readout, artificial lighting for the room and/or any of its appliances.
Even accepting this ridiculous decision to rule ‘all other sources of light out of scope’ then the obvious only possible answer is that THE SCREEN EMITS BLUE LIGHT OUTSIDE THE CONTROL OF SOFTWARE COLOUR SETTINGS. For example, LCD screens use a white light bulb to light up a screen of LCD pixels. This white light leaks. It’s why LCD screens have lower contrast (black looks dark grey).
I suppose my explanation is out of scope, but that’s the only real reason that I know of.
It really isn’t. This question is circular and relies on a presupposition that becomes ridiculous from the subsequent arbitrary rules imposed.
;tldr OP’s question is out of scope for ELI5
I’m thinking, if we’re sharing pedantic data and the SI unit of distance is the metre, isn’t the inch technically defined as exactly 0.0254m?
Caffeine isn’t addictive. Your body acclimates to long term usage, and you will experience some withdrawal symptoms but this is classified as a dependency and not an addiction as it does not trigger the reward mechanisms like weed and or methamphetamine does. It’s an important distinction and is why coffee and tea are often served at [Addiction] Anonymous meetings.
JFC this is pure entertainment start to finish. Anytime somebody says ‘fair use is BS’ they’ll get this sent to them.
This post makes me sad because I’m not a programmer and I don’t even know what the difference is. I just want a hug but apparently I’m ineligible.
Agreed. Got my revenge though. They got fired a week after I quit working there.
Where and what is this usually?
I agree, but, you’d be surprised how many people find many of these seemingly innocuous distinctions offensive (if only a little bit). For example, I was once chided by HR for saying ‘no problem’ during a seemingly friendly discussion.
with our 6.5 million users
Are there really that many? Sure doesn’t feel like it.
The whole conversation is a facepalm. This should have been 3 lines:
“What’s the last song you saved?”
'I am not comfortable sharing that information with you'
“Okay, if you’re aren’t willing to let me get to know your basic interests clearly this isn’t the kind of relationship I’m looking for. Good luck and have a nice day” [ends transmission]
Good point about FB (I’ve been off that shithole for years now and forgot). You know what, you’re right. Our only real hope now is laws for a right to online privacy. The market needs to be destroyed and I’m just hoping we can brainstorm a solution at this point. As for Lemmy: I don’t think it can be fixed. The data is there for the taking. At least it’s not being horded by a site owner?
I don’t see a problem with leaving data out in public view. Hiding behind anonymity has already turned most of the internet into a dumpster fire. Maybe we’ll see less trolls and hate publicly blasted with impunity from this. It will also put ‘keeping private shit private’ in the forefront of people’s minds. What personal data are you worried about revealing on a glorified chat forum that you aren’t directly responsible for publishing? edit: before this data was available mostly to the provider and anyone willing to pay for it. At least this way the data might become so publicly available it becomes worthless and the market dries up.
Celsius is just as good at describing temperatures humans experience. Every 5o is ‘category’:
< -10o Cripes it’s cold!
-10 to -5o Cold
-5 to 0o Snow/ice will melt
0o ‘true’ freezing/melting temperature
0 to 5o Cool
5 to 10o Brisk, jacket optional
10 to 15o Cool, Comfortable to work
15 to 20o Cold house
20 to 25o Typical house temps
25 to 30o Shorts recommended
30 to 35o Hot
35 to 40o Severely hot
'> 40o Crazy hot.
It’s simply just getting used to the values which you have to do with F too anyways, and IMO the C scale just makes far more sense. With F none of the values are intuitive and require you to learn them all.
