  • F has nothing to do with how a human feels. 0 f was literally just a very cold day that happened once. You’re just used to it, the same way people who use c are used to it and feel it very intuitively. A scale that actually was human would probably be logarithmic since we dont feel temperature linearly, and the 0 would be at 20c ~68 f since that is the temperature that’s most comfortable for people, with positive numbers being hot temperatures and negative numbers being cold


  • The biggest issue with imperial recipes is the constant use of measures by volume. If everything was in weight ounces it would be alright, but a lot of recipes insist on measuring solids by volume, like a cup of flour, a teaspoon of sugar etc, making them a lot harder to replicate consistently. My flour could be denser, my sugar could be finer, if things were measure by the actual mass such things would not matter but instead I have to fill a cup and pray to the gods that my cup of Ecuadorian flour has the same density as the one on the recipe (it almost never is)




  • Every once in a while when I’m bored. I grew up with an old portable radio and then an ipod nano 6 that had a radio, whenever I got tired of the music I’d just open the radio app and listen for a few hours.

    There’s a lot of music in my country that I don’t listen to often but every once in a while I get the urge.

    It’s also very nostalgic, listening to someone slice talk and play songs they want to play, with timed segments instead of an algorithm , listening to the stations fade when you get too far like on childhood road trips.
