ehh... that feels like it's rewarding the bad behavior. I'd much rather cycle load videos until there's no longer an ad rather than pay Google directly.

It helps to use a vpn and live in Brazil ;Y
But if you'd rather not fund the illuminati, just press L on the video to skip 10 seconds with each press

I need to live in the Skidoo universe. What if you wanted to go to heaven, but God said adopted by unhinged pedo mom with weird fetishes.

    I think just having decent benchmarks helps the most. most of the time you're not going to need to do actual conversions so just having a vague sense is better.

    32°c ≈ 90°f (at/above most would consider "hot" weather)
    8°c ≈ 45°f (at/below most would consider "cold" weather)
    1cm ≈ ⅓in, 1m ≈ 1yd, 2km ≈ 1mi
    100kph ≈ 60mph

    C to F is actually really easy! F = C x 1.8 + 32

    Thank God I was a bit of a math whiz back in high school. Or else I wouldn’t know any of this.

    Sad part is I didn’t even bother to learn the metrics. I just stuck to my American roots… 🤷🏽‍♂️

    My dumbass needs to find a quick/simpler way to understand the metric system…

    People using kph, meters, Celsius, etc.

    And I’m just like:

    Yeah, it's both surprising and unsurprising how cheap good stuff can get nowadays. I was going through a few lists of good budget earbuds for making my choices, in hopes that I could get something better than the regular convenience store earbuds while still within my acceptable price range. And well, I did.

    I mean, with a a difference of only 9 dollars, I wouldn't expect one to sound all that much better than the other.

    to be honest, both $6 and $15 sound crazy cheap for audio equipment. if you've managed to find something that's acceptable while only spending ~20 bucks that's pretty surprising.

    So the $15 IEMs have arrived and... oh no... I can't hear much difference. The only things my layman ears can discern is that the $6 pair has got an extra bass, and that it potentially feels kinda fatiguing especially if I'm just listening to a podcast and not music.

    Tbh, I guess I could live without either. I think I'm just gonna use the extra bass pair when going out while keeping the more balanced one for listening at home.

    Bought a pair of $6 IEMs. Saw some reviews. Immediately got buyer's remorse. Cancelled my order. Ordered $15 ones with good review. Next day, something arrived. Opened it without thinking. It was the cheap pair. "Whatever, before I return it, might as well". Listened to music. The $6 pair was actually good. Wtf. Immediately got buyer's remorse for the $15 IEMs. Checked tracking. Already on its way, can't cancel it no more.

    Moral of the story, don't rely on audiophile reviews when I'm just a lowly pleb who thinks "hehe wavy air good". But I swear to god if the more expensive one turned out to be worse...

    Yes, I do realize after the fact that this reads like a greentext. No, I'm not making it a proper greentext because tall blip ugly.

    I'm not a big feederism person but I did have an idea for a feeder/weight gain deltarune thing where it's the festival they've been talking about since the beginning and there's like a sort of carnival booth where you can pay to feed Catty, and you geta prize if you max out the scale she's on. You could do a cute thing where the foods people give her are themed to their character, like Noelle brings her fruit cake and Toriel gives her a buttspie. It ends with a joke where Sans shows up at the end and is like "Sorry I'm late to the festival guys. Whoa what's this." And then he tosses a coin to Catty's dad (who is running the booth) and tosses a singular water sausage dog into her mouth causing the scale's needle to move barely a centimeter to the highest number and the Sans wins the grand prize despite having been at the festival for all of 30 seconds. Everyone kills him.

    I hate paysite artists with every atom in my body.

    Why? Artists do that so they can you know actually do the art and live at the same time and the majority publicly release the artworks freely after a month or two for everyone.

    What a strange thing to say.
    This probably isn't the site for you, since we do respect the artists' wishes to be able to make money off their hard work.

    Do tags being updated on a post bump the pool it's in to the top?

    the only thinga that bump the pool is the pool itself being edited. this can be someone adding or removing a post (or attempting to add a post), modifying the order of the posts, changing the title, changing the description, changing the pool type, or changing the pool status. some of these will be shown/evident in the pool edit history, others will not.
