I'll admit I've never watched Stargate, but I thought it was scifi? I didn't realise it engaged with Egyptian mythology.

See that Celsius graph is precisely the nonsense I'm trying to point out. 0 ℃ isn't "fairly cold outside". It's literally the definition of freezing cold. 0 ℉ is "dead" if you're not wearing quite heavy clothing. 0 ℃ is "really cold outside" and still understating things.

I mean, I deliberately avoided using terms like "hot summer days" and "usual winter day" because that's far more dependent on where you are. Where I am it's:

• Really hot summer days (35 ℃)
• Usual summer days (30 ℃)
• Room temperature (24 ℃)
• Spring / autumn days (25 ℃)
• Chilly outside (18 ℃)
• Cold outside / usual winter days (15 ℃)
• Winter nights (10 ℃)

So I used words that are about the experience of a person in those temperatures in comfortable light clothing, rather than times of year. And obviously there's some subjectivity there, with some people being more comfortable in cold temperatures than others. But still, we're talking about the comfortable mid point varying from mid 20s to high 10s. There's no reasonable world in which 50 ℉ (10 ℃) is the midpoint.

It’s just the zero that’s absolute

Right, that's what makes Rankine and Kelvin absolute scales, while Fahrenheit and Celsius are relative.

None of the LNP are worth your time, that's for sure. Some of them might be less extreme than Schrinner and Ryan, but they all vote strictly in line with their ilk.

The Greens are by far the most outspoken in defence of cyclists and in favour of good cycling infrastructure. Labor is kinda middling, doing quite a bit of really good individual projects, but not being especially great at the wider systemic change that we really need to make fundamental improvements to cycling and city planning across the board.

I dunno where you live now, but down in Sydney the current Lord Mayor seems really good too.

I've always hated this justification of Fahrenheit. For it to be a good argument, 50 °F would need to be the ideal comfortable temperature. But instead 50 is really fucking cold. 100 just isn't as hot as 0 is cold.

Also Rankine, being an absolute scale, theoretically shouldn't be in ° anything, and it's only some weird historical quirk that is the reason it usually is called degrees.

Both images work just fine on my phone. It's just on the web that it doesn't work for me. So obviously it's a problem with the web client, not the server.

It's the new caching system. Our server detects images uploaded to other instances and goes to download them itself, caches them, and serves them to you.

Frustratingly, your images aren't showing up for me. Neither the one in this post nor your recent !perth post. All I can see is the title & text.

I was watching Survivalist stream this live, and then switched over to also watch Boit's stream on a 30 minute delay. It may very well be the most intense 1v1 game of Age of Mythology we'll ever see...or at least it's up there. It certainly does a fantastic job of showing off what makes Retold an excellent remake.

The syntax is a little complicated:
