It's kind of their whole thing though. It's how NASCAR got started. Without it, it would kill a large part of their tourism.
I like that Fahrenheit has a narrower range for degrees. 1C is 1.8 degrees F. So, F allows you to have more precision without the use of decimals. Like, 71F feels noticeably different to me than 64F, but that is only a 3.8 degree difference in C.
That isn't consistent with K and C though. -K doesn't exist. And water doesn't become more frozen at -C (well I guess it technically becomes different kinds of frozen).
Zero in that sense represents the absolute limit that one could exist in a particular state, which for F would be comfort? I guess the issue with humans is that 0 would be very subjective. But I think for almost all humans, the limit would be closer to 40F than 0F.
Me: As long as you leave an hour later why do I give a shit.
Probably why I'm not the boss of anything.
The shorts kind of help feel warmer if you are bundled up everywhere else. It focuses the feeling of cold on your legs where it feels less bothersome.
It's like a game of chicken where you win by being the last one wearing shorts deep into winter.
To add to this, vegetable is a culinary term and not a scientific term. Whereas, fruit can be both. Tomatoes are scientifically a fruit, but generally not from a culinary perspective.
Ron is the bigger shithead. I wouldn't like it but I could probably stomach Haley being president. However, for that reason, Haley will also never win the GOP primary.
Winner is also 77, unhealthy, and going through a very stressful period of his life. Probably a decent chance of him dying of a heart attack or something.
I actually highly recommend visiting the JKF Museum in Dallas (which is at the location he was shot). It was an interesting experience. It was cool to compare the pictures of the location with the present day. A lot of it is exactly the same except with thicker foliage.
There are 14, they can start on any day of the week and they may or may not have a leap year.
What are you talking about? Google does not give law enforcement information without a warrant or valid subpoena.
You clearly have no idea how any of this works and are fear mongering based on sound bites you may have heard. I work in this field and I know that Google (at least in the US) won't just hand over data without a valid warrant or subpoena. Now this can be a FISA warrant where the defendant (imo) doesn't have proper due process rights, but it is still a court order requiring them to comply.
I don't like the idea of my birthday being on the same day of the week every year. Based on the IFC Calendar, mine would be on a Tuesday every year and that would suck.
Clippers to sign Josh Primo, former Spur suspended for exposing himself to women
Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional
Relay for Reddit API Subscription Fees
One of the remaining 3rd party Reddit apps (Relay) has begun discussing what it would be charging for subscription fees. Imo, they actually seem somewhat reasonable. The weird thing is that every upvote or downvote is an API call so you can rack up a huge number of API calls from voting.
Also, while the costs might be reasonable now, there's nothing preventing Reddit from jacking up prices again.
Edit: Also, there wouldn't be any NSFW content with the app.
Why are we focused on a room temperature superconductor instead of a less cold superconductor?
As I understand it, superconductors work best at temperatures approaching absolute zero (-273.15C). For example, Google tells me that the superconductor in an MRI operates at -269C.
There has been a lot a buzz lately about room temperature (25C) superconductors being discovered, but why is room temperature the focus? Why not focus on superconductors that work in reasonably cold environments? For example, we can easily get temperatures to -15C in a freezer. Why not create superconductors that work in that temperature range rather than 25C?
Amir Coffey arrested for misdemeanor gun possession
The Clippers' Amir Coffey was arrested early Sunday in Hollywood and cited for carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle, authorities said.
Clippers interested in James Harden
Potenially adding another local guy to the mix. May as well get Kevin Love too.

New Pixel Ad
These are pretty cringe but they did make me chuckle a little. Very reminiscent of the I'm a Mac, I'm a PC ads.
Should Clippers Rebuild?
Acquiring Adebayo is likely a long shot, but that is the level of player Portland is aiming for with its young talent and No. 3 overall selection.
This Yahoo article suggests that Portland would be willing to part with the #3 pick for PG. IMO if we trade PG for a draft pick it would be best to trade Kawhi too and rebuild.
Thoughts on blowing it up and building around Scoot/Miller and whatever return we'd get from Kawhi?
[Law Murray] Westbrook would consider returning to LAC on a minimum. But it is unclear if/how that changes if Clippers can acquire Paul
Rumors are Clippers might try to get both Westbrook and CP3
