#dothemath — Public Fediverse posts

Deutsche #Autofahrer sitzen in einem Auto, das locker 60.000 € kostet, und meckern an der Tankstelle über 20 Cent Preissteigerung...

Do the math, stupid!

Despite my absolute lack of understanding about municipal finances, I did the Strong Towns Finance Decoder Worksheet for DeKalb County, GA.

Here are the results and a link to my Google sheet.

13 years ago, the call was to #dothemath. We're still working on it, still working to stop fossil fuel pollution and keep the climates productive. Join the effort.

Réserve TA séance unique au cinéma de ce film-opéra de Haendel

Magnifiquement interprété par "Les Arts Florissants", superbement filmé et monté par Amazing Digital Studios. Ne crois pas l'idiote note moyenne de 3.7 d'#AlloCiné : il y a 13 critiques à 5 étoiles et une à 4.5 #DoTheMath #ToutesLesdates

@paul I experienced the same with my carrier. I bought through Apple. Example - My carrier offered 0% financing for an iPhone 16 for my daughter along with a $125 trade in. Somehow all of that equated to monthly payments totaling $829 for a $699 iPhone minus $125 trade in. #dothemath

Übrigens hat eine Ketwurst in der DDR wohl etwa 1,50 Ost-Mark gekostet. #dothemath

@SheDrivesMobility mich hat in dem Zusammenhang interessiert, wie groß der Unterschied zwischen WoMo-Reisen und Fliegen ist #doTheMath

Schauen wir dazu z.B. auf die CO2 Emissionen:

Im Wohnmobil (Diesel mit zwei Personen ) kommt man auf etwa 200 Gramm CO2 pro Personenkilometer (g CO²/Pkm), beim Fliegen sind die Emissionen mit 300 g CO²/Pkm etwa anderthalb mal so hoch. Zum Vergleich: Bei Zugreisen liegt dieser Wert bei 15 - 40 g CO² / Pkm. (1/2)

« Personne n’y croit, une fois qu’on a augmenté les impôts de 40 %, qui va les baisser de 40 % ? ».

Il manquerait plus que ça ! #DoTheMath

@gerrymcgovern I think you might find it interesting to check out the first video (or however many catch your interest) of this playlist on "Metastatic Modernity" by Dr Tom Murphy of UCSD.

Murphy has been writing on energy, economy, modernity, and their intersection with planetary limits for quite a while at his Do The Math blog, and although that started in a pretty standard "green tech" position, as he started to look at things from a deeper, and rather darker, perspective which in 2021 he turned into an e-textbook _Energy and Human Ambition on a Finite Planet_.

Anyway, sorry for dropping in from nowhere.

The Third-of-a-Pound Burger flop

"Ah, fractions. Who needs 'em? Not burger devotees. According to Canadian news outlet CBC, the famous McDonald's Quarter Pounder burger once had a larger cousin, the Third-of-a-Pound Burger...."

That's why it's a bad idea to argue online.

Ejagfest 2024 - I was there! And it was great! Good vibes only, so many nice people. Was amazing to meet Carl Forhan from Songbird in person, got to shake hands with Ian McCranor who played Angus in Kasumi Ninja, had a look at the final version of Jumping at Shadows, played Tempest 2000 on an old Jag kiosk unit ... so much nerdy fun in one day. Wow. Cheers everyone, have a splendid weekend as well! 🎉🍻

call me sceptical but Harris is female, she is not white and is running for office in a country called the USA. #dothemath. #provemewrongplease. #fingerscrossed

New firmware update for Jaguar GD. Finally World Tour Racing and VidGrid run (WTR does crash between races seemingly, but oh well, at least it's playable at all).

"Can Atari K-O 3DO?" Well, we know the answer to that. But in December 1993, that was indeed a good question asked in this headline inside of Popular Science. At that time, it's wasn't already clear just how limited the Jaguar's launch would turn out to be, and even after that, the Jag sold a bit better than the 3DO for some months - which isn't much, still 😅. Also, this little bit was placed in an article about the 3DO, and you gotta agree that this picture of their crew is great!

So celebrate the Jaguar's 30th anniversary, enjoy the good and mediocre games, heck, maybe even some of the not-so-good ones. And remember that the Jag had a lot of potential and did not start out as a flop. If you want to read more about its history, you might like to look at my book Clipped Claws. It's free. And in any case: Keep doing the Math! 🕹️
