Never heard of that one before. What's the point of having an imaginary 29th?

I'm not a fan of base 10. I'm really like the consistency of the metric system but base 10 is/was a mistake and base 6 or 12 would have been way better for everyday use (including clocks) because of the number of prime factors. 6 and 12 are what's called superior highly composite numbers (SHCN) which make them great choices for bases in a number system because it simplifies a lot of manual everyday calculations, especially divisions.

But there is a difference between making a claim about not drinking water and literally holding your hand up in a way you can't fake.

I personally use a self hosted instance of kitchen owl https://kitchenowl.org/ I really like it's simplicity and use it quite a lot and nobody has access to the data but me.

First, FundMECFS is right, sounds like nasal cycle. Second: A natural way to have a completely free nose for about a minute is probably an orgasm 🤣 not kidding, try to take deep breaths through your nose next time.

He is comparing himself to Caesar? Maybe someone should stab him to help him out.

The lava lamps are just a gimmick and evening filming a white wall (as long as the video is not overexposed) would be just as random/secure because of the avalanche effect of cryptographically secure hash functions and the thermal noise of cameras.

Ok here is a question someone recently asked me: "How to show the day of the week next to the date on my Desktop". Try to answer that for "Linux" and help that person on the phone.

Great summarized, especially the "close enough" part. If you think about it this situation never would've happened if we would have based the majority of the computer designs on ternary instead of binary. https://zeta.one/kilobyte-is-1000-bytes/

We don't even have gates. Most people just pay for their tickets. Sometimes there are ticket inspections - if you get caught you'll be fined. Way cheaper than enormous infrastructure for every entrance that just slows you down if you have an annual ticket for example. https://youtu.be/kq-X25pH1XQ

The amount of data is a joke for location "streaming". There is no need to update the location every second, most people on earth don't travel with rockets. Updating the location at most every 30 seconds is probably more than enough for most usecases. Let's make it 15s. Let's be generous and just use two 32bit floats (could probably get away with 16bit half precision or fixed point). The size of the entire message (without meta data and encryption) is just 8 bytes. There are emojis that need more than that. And in practice people that can't share their location often just end up sending images, so the amount of data is definitely not the issue with location sharing. A single image you send on Signal uses more data than streaming the location ever 15s for a few days.

Are there even any official trailers yet? Any links?
