The warning signs were there earlier when he pushed a crypto pump and dump on his channel. I’d already pretty much stopped watching his videos after that and then the covid stuff happened. I was also a bit sad to hit unsubscribe.

But thankfully years ago I discovered This Old Tony who scratches a similar itch for me, but better. Much slower uploads, but far higher quality.

It’s like talking to an American who keeps asserting they don’t have an accent. If they don’t get it immediately, they’re probably not going to.

It only makes sense to you because you’re accustomed to it, not because it’s innately better at “gauging human comfort”. All of us who grew up using metric know how to gauge comfort with Celsius. None of us bother with decimal fractions of a degree because there isn’t a big enough difference between degrees to do so, so your argument about granularity falls apart pretty quick there. You lot don’t have trouble with miles despite kilometres being more granular do you?

We’re in peak season for them in the southern hemisphere, so it’s a bit unusual to see them fruiting in the north. But then I don’t know the area, maybe some of them just like to fruit in spring there?

It’s not just a claim. “Hypersonic” ballistics like the Kinzhal are not real hypersonics. It’s just a faster ballistic missile because they launch it from a plane. Being ballistic makes it easy to intercept.

When people talk about hypersonics as a future weapon, they are talking about hypersonic glide vehicles. Not an Iskander strapped to a plane.

They’ll definitely know. Microsoft’s last update for Windows 10 will make sure to add as many notices, popups and scary alerts as possible.

And as a result plenty will care, particularly those who aren’t tech savvy. If you’ve got relatives for whom you are their go-to IT person, be prepared.
