I was at Walmart the other day and there were four employees standing around the self checkout. They all said bye to me when I left. Weird shit.

At that point, why not just have them work the tills??

Just tried it. “An oonique”… Sounds fancy.

NovelAI doesn’t censor itself. Do with that as you will.

Now that’s a satisfying couple of charts!

I think the benefit of having metric in base 10 rather than 12 is that it matches our numeric base system.

123mm is 12.3cm and 1.23dm and 0.123m.

Converting things in base 12 would be a bit more work, not sure it’d be worth it.

We’re not really going around converting time very often.

12 and 60 divide nicely. A quarter of a 12-hour clock is 3 hours, but in decimal time it’d be 2.5 hours. A third is 4 hours in base 12, but some gross 3.33 repeating in decimal.

I just don’t like it.

You make a real good point.

My laptop’s my primary driver, and the device I go to when I need to do any real work. I sometimes get frustrated trying to do something on my phone and switch to my laptop because it’s far more efficient. My phone’s for doomscrolling and music primarily, so I don’t need all the bells and whistles.

For my mum, on the other hand, her phone is her primary driver and the big screen is especially useful with aging eyes so she can make the font bigger and still have real estate. The pocket thing isn’t an issue either because she just throws it into her purse.

Though, she does drop her phone and crack the screen way more often than I do, bit unwieldy when they hit the phablet size. 🤔 I wonder if manufacturers like that, more money in warranties/repairs.

Small hands. My Pixel 4a is as big as I’ll go at 5.8", as I can reach the other side of the phone with my thumb to type one-handed.
