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.

Tbf, there are American beaches known for being drivable. Specifically, Daytona Beach.

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.

Since when are green tomatoes toxic? I eat fried green tomatoes every summer...

I was a bit before I realized it was a pine cone.

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.

That's why I'm storing up on brown fat in my youth.

It's like a game of chicken where you win by being the last one wearing shorts deep into winter.

Maybe they should be illegal?

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.

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.

Guess the Jews win the Design the Most Convoluted Calendar contest.

Big Calendar would never allow for this. Imagine only ever having to buy one calendar!

Yeah, I realize it's worse than that... When did I say otherwise? I even started off the comment by stating that Apple and Google's privacy features were made for anti-competitive reasons, not to benefit the consumer.

Your type of fear-mongering isn't really helpful though. It just makes people feel powerless to large corporations and makes people try to address the wrong issues. It's important to accurately state what they are collecting and how they are using that data. We spent a decade complaining about Google not respecting privacy and selling data and what we got was Google gaining even more power. Because, that wasn't what Google was doing or their end goal.
