They're one of only 3 countries in the world who still use °F, and represent 98% of the population who do so. So it's basically just America.

Farenheit is asking Americans how hot they feel.

Sorry, I didn't even realize that this was posted in a philosophy sub. It was just in my general feed on a science instance from a youtube channel almost entirely focused on science.

This video annoys me. There's a trend in quantum physics where science has given way to what is essentially philosophy. This always seems to be driven by the inclusion of an infinity symbol and the acceptance of an untestable hypothesis. It's not science if you can't test it. Is there any evidence that would lead anyone to make the claims in the video? It looks an awful lot like someone came up with a story, then retroactively generated a justifcation for how it could be true, aNd tHeReFoRe mUsT bE tRuE.

While I am in full support of kids having imaginations, even within the space of STEM subjects, in this case I think it dilutes the value of the channel which otherwise produces excellent content.

 

Is there a way to make opening links in new tabs a default behaviour?
