I was going to recommend that, very easy to setup

At this point we have to consider the ambient temperature as well, as the chicken will slightly cool between two slaps once it exceeds it

This is the intelligent answer, not the facebook answer.

I have a pretty good setup at home (65" oled with 7.1 sound system) so I rarely go to theaters.

Also every time I go to theater I'm disappointed with something, people making noise while eating, bad audio (I went to a Dolby theater to watch Dune 2 and they cranked it up so high that it was saturated as hell) or poor noise insulation (hearing the rain from outside during silent desert scenes was a bit confusing).

Anyways, I think I would struggle to watch anything in less than 720p and/or with bad audio

Yeah, plus even carburetors engines don't burn more fuel being on a gear than on neutral so there's literally never an advantage to do that.

People should just remember that cruising in neutral is not good, period.

Cruising in neutral doesn't save gas at all, the engine still has to run so gas is injected. When cruising with a gear, the wheels make the engine run so it doesn't need gas (not true for carburetors though if I'm not wrong)

You can't say that for all engineers. I'm one and the biggest part of my job is programming in C++

Depends on the meaning (🍑👈)

Sadly it does not seem like open data to me. Hopefully one day we'll have open traffic data for any osm app like OsmAnd or Organic maps 🤞

Even if it was omelette of cheese it would be "omelette de fromage"

Nice! Where does it get the traffic data from? I couldn't find the information anywhere

 

In my local community, we have a WhatsApp group for mutual help and services / goods exchange, the rule is no money, so it's mostly populated by leftists more or less open to understand the problematics of internet privacy (for context). There are a bit more than 350 persons.

Today, someone sent a message telling everybody that he's leaving Meta products for good, thus this group. A few other persons complained about meta, then I suggested that we could all leave WhatsApp and go on Signal and I briefly explained the network effect by saying that if no one uses signal because nobody is on it, then no one will ever use it if nobody takes the first step.

And this argument worked because an admin just created a signal group! More than 50 persons already switched!

Obviously the WhatsApp group will not be abandoned right away, but it has been decided that both groups will be used for now, then we'll see at the end of the year which group we abandon.

I really see hope in that kind of events, because if I managed to make more than 50 people switch, a portion of them will do the same for their other groups and family / friends.

I plan on hosting little conferences with this group on the libre culture and the attention economics, so hopefully I'll convince all of them that it's the right thing to do!
