81. He is a bleached sarcophagus.

Oh I understood. I agree with you.

I would argue that something that was once available at home that is then restricted to a single place that must be shared with lots of people isn’t freely accessible.

My local library is within walking distance, but it’s pretty small. The Internet is free but not awesome in terms of speed.

If it’s only available at one place, it’s not freely accessible.

Logistically, how would that work? Libraries would have to be everywhere and they’d have to be massive. The IT infrastructure to support that would be immense. How would privacy work? Where could I go to have a private telehealth appointment, for example?

Mail in voting across the board could be better than a federal holiday. In Washington, I get everything I need to vote in the mail: a ballot, a voter’s guide, a postage paid envelope. I literally don’t have to wear pants to vote. I can take a week to make a decision about something before I wander over to the nearest mailbox to drop off my ballot.

Never having done it, voting in person sounds awful.

I didn’t imply assassination attempts of the vice president when I was an 8 year old boy. This guy is a lunatic.

You called?

And Rankine would be even better than Kelvin in terms of “big number go brrr.” Water boils at 671 R.

Of course, Rankine is the most obnoxious unit I’ve ever had to deal with, but those numbers sure are big!

The only good thing about Fahrenheit is that 69 degrees (20.5 C) is a nice temperature.

Reddit does shitty stuff, but at least I’m able to find stuff on there. Why Discord took off as a medium to replace forums is beyond me. It’s not easily searchable, and search engines can’t index it. If people aren’t fastidious about replying to messages they’re responding to, it’s just a nonsense stream of consciousness from dozens of people.

That being said, I hate the formatting of most forums. Reddit and Lemmy’s comment nesting is excellent. It’s very easy to follow conversations.
