You do realize there is a similarity between "hating Trump because he's a fraudulent criminal and hating everyone who isn't a white Christian" right? It's hate. And more importantly it is a way to rally people to your side without having to promise to accomplish anything that would move the country forward.

I just don't like soap operas, whatever the form. My kid does though.

I could only wish to be so oblivious. :)

I do like 0 as freezing. We should have a new one where 0 is 0C, and 100 is 100F. Or maybe 1000 is 100F so I can get my extra resolution without decimals

Yeah, I don't know if I would go as far as to say they aren't happy. Seems more like never satisfied to me.

Most democrats run on not being trump. I consider that running on hate. But I could understand if others don't. As for the border bill... they only floated that because 1.. they were pretty sure the Republicans wouldn't want to give them a win. And 2.. they were trying to woo conservative voters to vote for Biden. It was a win win stunt that they wouldn't have done if the election wasn't close.

screw motor. Thanks. I googled an image of that and it all made sense. Pretty sweet. And based on that, the motor doesn't seem like it would have any impact on the minimum difference between height settings. It would just a question of some kind of control that converts the remote signal into a burst of on or off for the motor. So likely there are an infinite number of positions the bed could achieve because holding the the button would be nondeterministic as to how far it would move. Thanks.

Nice vid. He isn't wrong. Though maybe we could come up with a compromise temperature scale for everyone to use. Even 100 F isn't as uncommon as it used to be. But I would love to have more granularity without decimals.

In fairness, that isn't just America. It's kind of a male thing. Lol

Yeah, but you can't argue that adding a whole digit doesn't make it seem bigger. And take a kid who doesn't yet know either system. They for sure will think 107 is hotter then 41. That said, I wish everywhere that gave a temp in the US would give both so I could get a better sense of Celsius. Most apps and such let you choose one or the other, but not both.

Pretty much. Though from things I have read they are more likely to be competition addicts. Gambling would be one way to compete with others. But yeah, honestly, I wouldn't want to be them. I consider most of them mentally ill.

Humans are wired to cooperate mainly if it helps them compete. Basically they cooperate more than any other animal. But cooperation is a means to the end of out competing other groups. That said, there doesn't seem to be any hard science either way, so this is just my opinion, and your opinion holds equal value.
