How many Oz in a Wizard again?

Hmm. Motorcycling might be higher or counted together with driving a car. I forget the stats.

The others generally aren’t used as methods of transportation, but instead are generally recreational activities.

The percentage of people in those jobs who die is small. In fact, there are quite a few deadlier jobs out there. (I want to guess that they’re mostly related to resource extraction)

Do you also not give a shit when a driver dies because we know that driving is the deadliest method of transportation per kilometre?

So then a TB must be about…a metric shitton?

LOL…yes. should’ve been an Eighth, but we don’t have a coin for that.

Your math is right. I was just thinking of a Byte as $1.00 and going from there. Then remembered that bits are smaller, but they shouldn’t be $1 because a single bit is not very powerful. But making it worth $1 or $0.01 would make the math messier.

But yes. Two bits are a quarter is probably the best compromise! Lol

Well…up until recently

A kilobyte must have sounded like so much memory back then.

A byte is 8 bits. Even if we want to call bits quarters ($0.25) and bytes dollars, 69KB would be $69,000! That’s a lot of dollars.

(And it’s actually 1,024 or something instead of 1,000, which just increases it that much more).

It’s crazy how KBs used to be incredibly meaningful, and now we’re buying multi-TB drives like they’re nothing!

EDIT: Math fail. Let’s say TWO bits are a quarter…lmao

In this context, “hairy” can mean “tricky” or “difficult”.

• Government provides services because people need services. While shutdown, those services are not being provided.
• Employees are not being paid. People need to be paid to live.

It’s kind of like running a restaurant, seeing that you’re spending a lot of money on food and staff, and firing all your staff and cancelling all your food orders to “save money and spend it on other stupid stuff”. Except if you’re a government, you’re hurting more than just yourself and your employees.

I think they’re more looking down on the jail itself for not having many books.

As well, writing ability does not indicate someone’s overall level of capabilities.

Kim’s Convenience was ruined by its last season and getting cancelled (or whatever happened to it).

Pretend it got cancelled a season early. It’s a bit of a GoT situation, but to a lesser extent.

That’s fair!

I’m surprised that a social worker would be saying “You have a fair bit to learn about the English language” to someone who is looking to donate books to a prison…

The elitist part was saying that someone should learn more about the English language before trying to help others learn.

They didn’t merely"wonder" if someone read many books. They were dismissing someone’s desire to donate books and help people.

Are you a man? Call it a kilt.

Lol, why the elitism here? It doesn’t seem like OP is trying to do anything bad.

I had to look up AFAB (assigned female at birth) because I was trying to figure out what the F stood for…I was thinking it was “All F? Are Bastards”, lmao

Anyway.

Others have answered the question well, but retro tech has always been interesting.

I think that these days, more people are interested in tech in general (it’s unavoidable in our daily lives), and more people were interested in tech before, too. So there are people exposing younger people to older tech, and in some ways, the “disconnected” aspects of retro tech can resonate with younger people.

It could be understood to mean “AI [tools]”, which would be plural

(“it” is also a pronoun")
