So this failed when I originally uploaded it and a load of stuff got messed up, so some of these might be from the previous ones I did, not sure though

Yeah, but when people who weren't around get asked the trivia question, and not only need to remember the year of her death, but the month, and which PM was in office in that month... we've had a wild ride on PMs recently

#8 - For the second one, I know some athletes miss a lot of periods because of all the stress training puts on their bodies, I'm not sure if it would be similar in a post-apocalyptic harsh survival scenario.

#45 For the Americans in the audience, that's an anti-theft device on about 1.6lbs of butter, that costs $9.

Pretty sure the UK and the US both are the only countries in the western world to have those anti-theft on even the cheapest of food products

They put security tags that would go off if someone walked out the store without paying on what looks like butter. They usually only put those kind of tags on high value items like electronics or stuff people try to steal often. So either the store thinks a lot of people want to steal butter, or people really are stealing butter of all things and the store is responding.

#8 I remember this being a bit longer, things about; cutting their hair with an old hunting knife and getting a perfect salon style, never needing moisturizer, never needing a bath/shower (though that can apply to some men too). It's why The Last of Us feels accurate; people look thin from lack of food, they are dirty, their clothes are patched, worn, and cheap, and they talk about needing a shower/bath
Elaralia
Yeah, some of these are a few years old so it may just have been a version without that

#12 Sound is vibrations in the air received by your ear and interpreted by your brain into sound. Without anyone around to hear it, a tree falling in the forest will make vibrations in the air but not sound. Fight me.
IAmASentientWaffle
If we're taking things seriously... What do you think the odds are that there is *no* organism around that can hear?
applesforjuice
Nobody is going to fight you, the question isn't literal it's used to ask about the lack of wider effects acting on an isolated variable produces. Knowing the egg came before the chicken is great, not understanding the question in context is stupid.

#15 Fahrenheit is not how people feel. Anything between -18°C (0°F) and 0°C (32°F) is how frozen food feels. This range equates to human numbness, not human feelings. And 38°C (100°F) is where things START getting hot. So don't come at me with that bullshit. It's some arbitrary scale based on some briny ammonium chloride solution, not human experience. Like the Mercator Projection, temperatures below 0°C are inventions of the Northern Hemisphere trying to keep the global South under their thumb.
Elaralia
Yeah, fahrenheit makes no sense at all

explosivepotatosalad
Yeah, Farenheit is how people feel IF they grew up using it. To anyone outside the US it makes absolutely no sense.
PwnageHobo
If Fahrenheit were truly "how people feel" then 50°F would be room temperature, a nice comfortable, middle-of-the-road sort of temperature. Instead, left exposed to a 50°F ambient temperature environment, a person suffers from hypothermia. None of our temperature scales are based on how people feel.
Navrodel
Man, I'm too New England for your scale - I call the outside world a wash when it hits 90°F (32°C) By the time it hits 100, I'm fucking done. Then again, I used to regularly shovel snow in a t-shirt - maybe a windbreaker if it was under 20°F( 7 under "Fuck That"°AUS), so I have a feeling that we might just have incompatible views on what is and isn't "human" temperatures.
mksu
Aside from perhaps Planck units (or similar), all of our units are arbitrary nonsense that just made sense to someone at some point. Unlike most of the metric system, Celsius doesn't really provide any actual utility over Fahrenheit, except feeling "more logical" to people who haven't actually thought their feelings through. Having the freezing point of water under specific conditions set to 0 and the boiling point of water under specific conditions set to 100 isn't actually important.
doesntmatter
As a Swede I agree that there is no objective mechanical advantage yo either Celsius or Farenheit over the other. However beyond mechanics Celsius is still objectively better because it is a Swedish scale
Jattetont
Having the freezing point at 0 is objectively useful anywhere that experiences snow and ice (and if nothing else, for fridge thermometers). It is immediately clear whether things are freezing or melting.
mksu
Expressing the freezing point of water as 0 or 32 makes no difference to the ability of a thermometer marked with the respective units to convey that information to an observer.
athena0219
That's true for any arbitrary point someone gets used to. For me, it is perfectly clear that 32 is the magic number, but that 0 is around where salting sidewalks isn't that effective. No, really, ice salts lower the melting point, but most don't work in negative Fahrenheit. That's also part of why the train system near me sands their outdoor stations, rather than (maybe alongside?) salting. Gritty sand provides grip even if the temperature is too cold for salts to prevent freezing.
athena0219
Fun fact on this. Salting roads is, as far as I am aware, a relatively new phenomenon. But, 0 degrees Fahrenheit was defined by the lowest temperature the dude who invented the scale could get before a brine (salt+water) solution would freeze. So this epic relationship is mostly happenstance, but very useful.
minant
While this is mostly true in everyday use, both Celsius and Fahrenheit are now defined in terms of Kelvin. Given that, and that Fahrenheit includes a conversion factor that Celsius doesn't, it would be simpler to discard Fahrenheit. Then we just have an "absolute range" label and an "everyday use range" label. Fahrenheit and Celsius cover similar ranges and have similar precisions, so other than historical inertia there's no reason to keep supporting both.
mksu
It would be even simpler to discard both Fahrenheit and Celsius and use one system all the time.
minant
Celsius and Kelvin effectively *are* one system now, it's just that if you use the offset, it has one label and if you don't, it has the other. The offset is a pretty basic UI consideration, just like we don't usually measure altitude from the centre of the earth.
mksu
The offset isn't doing anything important, so just get rid of it. Trying to justify Celsius by way of Kelvin is bizarre because there's really no reason other than historical inertia to keep using Celsius.
EmanNiemThcin
No, Celsius has the same steps as Kelvin, it is Kelvin with an offset so to speak. Whereas Fahrenheit is some weird prussian gobbledigook from yesteryear. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin
mksu
This is an excellent example of what I just described.
EmanNiemThcin
If you don*t see the advantage of having your unit of measurement directly linked to the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_constant that's on you not me.
athena0219
Oh yeah. Your Wikipedia link uses Rankine, BTW. The °R in some of the values is degrees rankine. So yes, farenheit has the same relationships that celcius has.
athena0219
Fahrenheit is also directly linked to the Boltzmann constant, and also the plank constant, and also the frequency of a cesium-133 atom. Celcius and Kelvin share the same relationships. Because each of them are arbitrary scales that describe the same fundamental relation. Celcius was chosen to reflect water. Kelvin was chosen to reflect celcius (celcius is around a century older if I recall right). Fahrenheit was chosen for weird reasons, but with 180 degrees of separation between freezing 1/?

I got muted over this conversation. Wild.

It’s because you tried to bring reason to an emotional screech fest on the internet. It’s not even about being right or wrong in this instance it’s their refusal to see things from another perspective. For what it’s worth I understood what you were trying to say.
athena0219
Dude's Wikipedia link even uses Rankine, which is the farenheit scale but shifted 460 degrees so absolute zero is at 0. Literally the same relationship Kelvin and Celcius have.
