    Exactly, its just cope. Someone who grew up entirely on metric temperature will have exactly the same intuition. For example myself:

    <0 = freezing 0-10 = Cold 11-17 = Warming up 18-24 = Comfortably warm 25-29 = Tropical 30-40 = Uncomfortably hot >40 = Dangerously hot

    Besides which, all of this goes out the window once wind chill and other external effects that absolute temperature cannot account for come into play.

    It’s the usual American exceptionalism that causes them to throw a tantrum every time they’re asked to conform to a worldwide standard. There’s a reason most of the world uses metric measurements for most things in every day life, and its because it just works once you get used to it.

    Personally, I think you’re half-right in that (with a sample size of our solar system) the Earth is the only one with an actually diverse range of biomes - really only possible because the availability of water in multiple forms…

    But the Earth-like planets in NMS should rightfully have the same biome diversity if they were being scientifically accurate…

    Though we all know the real reason for the lack of diversity is to force movement between planets. If every resource was on one planet, there’s be no reason for the player to explore.

    Great suggestion Shapiro. Have every working class young American immigrate elsewhere and watch your infrastructure die as nobody replaces the existing workers…

    I have no doubt Shapiro is saying this full well knowing that if they can’t afford to live in the US, they definitely can’t afford to leave. He gets to puff his chest out like he’s a big man with nobody to take his bluff.

    Honestly. It feels like some people have become so dependent on LLMs that they’ll ask them to solve the even most basic of questions.

    Our bodies evolved on a “use it or lose it” basis, and like every other muscle in our bodies, the brain is not immune to this…

    If you let your brain sit idle while passing on such simple tasks to AI, the neuronal pathways for these tasks will weaken to the point you’ll have to relearn them from scratch.

    These AI companies want this to happen. They want more and more people to become dependent, so that once they decide to rug pull you with the true cost, you’ll have no choice but to pay up because you can’t cope without it. This is true not just for humans but even entire industries as a whole, who have very keenly taken to replacing humans with it.

    On the off chance this isn’t just a joke and never happened, in theory they had to have eaten the exact same dish each time, but requested removal of a single ingredient, and are now down to the last two eliminations?

    The only problem with this method being they’re going in with the assumption that a single ingredient is causing the issue, when it could be multiple or all of the ingredients - or even a result of poor hygiene from the person preparing these pokes.

    The problem with pointing out contradictory points of view to the right wing is that they largely don’t care. These arguments are ultimately just dog whistles and plausible deniability towards their real ends.

    They’ll argue parent’s right when the parents agree with them, then trample those same rights when they don’t - and won’t even blink because parent’s rights wasn’t the goal, it was the elimination of Trans kids, which both points are consistent with.
