  1. 24 hour clock time, and software librarians!

    Since when exactly did 04:22PM ever rationally exist?

    It's 4.22pm, or 16:22 hrs, please.
    At least ditch the leading zero if the old ways are too hard. Info tech should simplify, not complicate, communication.

  6. @8r3n7 would you be happier if we called it 99% space? By that distance up, more than 99% of the air is gone. And in orbit, station and occupants have near-identical gravity, so >99% of that effect is gone. #Pedantic

    Of course, you being you, there's a chance you already knew that, and were being #pedantic. XD

  16. I am not #pedantic. If you are right, and it does happen, rarely, I #admit it. And even if I think you're still #wrong but you have a point somewhere, I'll go #research that shit. I am the most #flexible #human you've never met. What haven't I done? Who haven't I been? I'm finally me.

    Yes, the (wrongly) so-called "Spanish Flu" was more or less exactly 100 years before 2019 but HIV/AIDS has killed far more people than COVID-19 (so far).

  32. YT Video: "Hall effect keyboards are getting too cheap" ME: "SHUT YOUR FACE" This argument/statement is forever shit regardless of the technology. Stop saying it. We don't live in a world where things becoming affordable hurts people; We live in one where things being unaffordable do! #Pedantic

  35. Public service announcement: When countering flat-earther nonsense, it's better to say the Earth is a globe, not just round. You can have a round disc too, which the Earth is not. You're welcome.
