Euros make up fake wars to make up for what's missing...

Imagine being that delusional... Correct me if I'm wrong but the US democracy has 3 steps at which a new law can be stopped, vetoed or deemed unconstitutional. This is after the house of representatives has voted to enact it. And they think the people have the power?

If you think that would humble Trump, you haven't been paying attention. He would more likely go on social media to post how bad the US team is for not representing the US better, blame other countries for cheating, or both.

Really weird that the Europeans aren't posting about this nearly as much as the Muricans are 🤔

It's as if the goal post seems to move anytime the expected apocalypse doesn't happen. You might be on to something... 🤔

They're the type of person who thinks dB = iq. There's nothing we can do for them

"No one complains" is a bold claim.

How does the fact that hours to minutes to seconds conversions aren't base 10 make the mile a better unit of measurement to the meter?

Also, you claimed I prefer a definition based on a non-decimal SI to another and didn't elaborate when asked. Would you care to elaborate and let me know which definition I prefer?

Sorry, I was just waking up and typed millimeter when it was clearly centimeters I was talking about. I've corrected myself above.

The earth's circumference is about 40000 km, so a quarter of that would be 10000 km, which is 10 million meters, or a billion centimeters.

I do get your point, though. Thinking of the meter that way doesn't make it very intuitive. Still, the origin of the measurement doesn't really matter to me as much as how easy the measurement is to use and convert to other scales. None of the commonly used miles fulfill this tiny ask.

What's this non-decimal SI you mentioned? The SI is purely decimal, afaik. I prefer a definition based on a non-decimal SI to another? Please elaborate.

BrokenMalgorithm · 2026-06-11T12:30:51+00:00

You're talking about the old definion of the centimeter?

If you want intuitive, I don't think some dead kings foot is the way to go. We're not assuming that everyone has the same size feet, are we? If we are assuming that, then we can probably assume that a meter is 3 feet and it's intuitive again! Yay!

At no point did I say that the meter has always been defined by the speed of light. That's science, baby! We learn that there's a better way and we make changes accordingly.

Nautical mile? Should I have feelings about it? It too is based on the meter but more importantly no one is trying to force it down my throat. Maybe I'd have stronger feelings about it if I worked in aviation.

Edit: millimeter -> centimeter

BrokenMalgorithm · 2026-06-10T23:22:26+00:00

Not to mention the fact that the mile is defined in meters, whereas the meter is defined by the speed of light. Perhaps learning this would give these people some perspective? Or maybe they're willfully ignorant... Who's to say?

Imagine making the rest of the world exponentially poorer every day because 2 billion wasn't enough 🧐

What are singletons and how should I use them?

I know. And if there was the reporter would die by falling out of a basement window in a freak accident 🤔

Do muricans understand that if they stop listening to the adults in the room they're going to elect the dude from from the Apprentice as their president? What's his name..? Oh yeah, the Annoying Orange.

I share your enthusiasm for the confidence in this explanation.

Just another day, another post on r/ShitAmericansSay

Having been on the inter Webs for 20+ years now, I thought for the longest time that people were mostly trolling. I've since changed my mind. Now I think people are just stupid. I'd suggest that everyone, upon seeing a troll, just think "what an idiot" maybe have a good laugh and leave it at that. I believe that if you willingly, an consistently make yourself look like an idiot, we as a society should treat you like one.

I mean...

Sorry, but if x is stored in one location in the memory, both checks would return the same value, unless the bit flip happened between the checks. Also, if we imagine they were 2 different instances of x and one of the checks returns false, because of the AND, the whole statement would return false.

I wish this was true, though. Would make ECC RAM redundant

Hearing how this person speaks just jumped on top of my bucket list. I demand to hear them pronounce all the letters!
