That’s right, it’s a kilogramme of steel, because steel is heavier than feathers!

my guy, the usa was built on the shoulders of a robust railway system.

the reason why it wouldn’t work now is because the automotive industry has absolutely ruined everything and americans have been conditioned over many years and multiple generations to regard any form of public service and infrastructure as “bad”, “pointless”, and “for poor people”, and so any attempt to actually modernize and fix any of these issues caused by car-dependency is quickly shut down by the ignorant.

LEMMiNO’s production quality on his mystery documentaries is brilliant.

Ahoy mainly focuses on aspects of video game history and video game weapon design. I love his voice.

3Blue1Brown for pure mathematics.

You expressed gratitude. You may not have meant it, but you’ve expressed it nonetheless. It doesn’t matter if the opposite party deserved it or not; “thank you” is an expression of gratitude, and the only polite ways they have of answering that is “you’re welcome” or “no problem”.

that is a very weird way of looking at it. “thank you” has always been a way of expressing gratitude.

yes, they may simply just be doing their job, but at the same time you are also doing what you as a customer should be doing: place your items on the counter, pay, get your stuff, and leave. there’s no need for you to thank someone; there’s no need for any words of exchange.

“thank you” may be a standard polite phrase, but so is “you’re welcome” or “no problem”. you were polite to them, so let them be polite to you by acknowledging your expression of gratitude.

adam ragusea’s videos have taught me so much about cooking. he’s very much an advocate for cooking by feel, he teaches a lot of the food science behind his recipes, and his recipes are very easy to follow.

paint and light are different. for light, you are adding colours onto black to make it brighter; for paint, you are subtracting colours from white to make it darker. thus, respectively, additive and subtractive colours.

red, yellow, and blue being “primary colours” is there because people probably think “magenta” and “cyan” are too complex of concepts to teach young kids. it is cool to have a way to make orange and purple without delving into paint ratios, though. it’s good enough for general use for sure, but if you want to get into colour accuracy for print, CMY is the way to go.

here’s a quick and simple cheat sheet to help you out!

additive colours (RGB; screen pixels, LEDs):

• nothing = black
• red + green = yellow
• green + blue = cyan
• blue + red = magenta
• red + green + blue = white

subtractive colours (CMY(K); paint, prints, colouring pencils):

• nothing = white
• cyan + magenta = blue
• magenta + yellow = red
• yellow + cyan = green
• cyan + magenta + yellow = black

red light + green light = yellow light

oh, easier, for sure.

mainstream programming languages are based on english terms, so if you know english already, a lot of programming syntax is already pretty self-explanatory, like “variable”, “print”, “if - then”, “while”, and “for (each)”. that’s really most you need when it comes to logic.

even easier if you already knew a programming language beforehand.

i don’t get the hate towards that random guy using the thorn. it’s just a personal style and not really hard to read.

like, who cares? all lowercase is my own style of typing. it’s all informal and used in an informal setting; we’re not writing a publication here.

First-hand knowledge (I’m Cantonese), we have sarcasm.

I find it hard to believe that sarcasm can’t exist in some languages, honestly; just say something in an exaggerated tone while you mean the opposite.

scales, wings, a tail, and the ability to breath fire tbh
