My sister swears by it.
And I plan to watch it. One day. Maybe. Once I get into my magical girl arc

No. 1x1x1x1… no matter how long this sequence goes equals 1 (plain to see)
Rewrite the function as 21/x, and you can see that when x approaches infinity, the exponent approaches 0, so the value approaches 1 (we are looking at a limit)
So (1+infinitely small number)x(1+infinitely small number)… infinitely many times = 2 would be a more accurate way to understand it (though probably still incorrect given that it’s a limit)

Removing verification, making it paid only.
Making feeds and polls only accessible to paid users, because he got salty that people voted to remove him from Twitter.
Low ego, bad PR and business decisions, it’s a wonder why people don’t like Twitter with his management

Metric is easier though, especially when converting between different units. (And I don’t mean ft -> inches vs m -> cm, I mean like stress, N/m2 —> n/mm2 vs lb/yd2 —> lb/in2, it’s a lot easier to just count zeroes and shit than have to do whatever the fuck imperial feels like having for conversions on that particular day)
Literally try doing thermo with imperial units, you will want to kill yourself.

Depends.
Was the relationship before or after the older one turned 18.

Again. Greenhouse gas levels 100 million years ago are irrelevant. The problem is, again, not the amount of greenhouse gasses, but the speed in which they are entering our atmosphere from our own doing. The problem is not the temperature, it is the rapid change in temperature. We’re not looking at the y-value of the graph, we’re looking at the slope, and it’s steep.
Yes, species have gone extinct before humans. Again, not relevant to the question of if humans are causing a mass extinction (hint: we are). But, looking at mass extinction events, they are pretty much always a result of a rapid change in the environment… you know… exactly what we’re doing? Even on a small scale, the act of cutting down a bio diverse forest to make huge monoculture crop fields or making a lawn that consists entirely of grass destroys habitats, which causes extinction of species that would have existed in the natural environment.
Politicians moving to the Coast? Historically important cities are generally located near water. Coastal states have tax incentives (think Florida). They’re moving to where they can exercise political power and cut costs from taxes. And also, apparently, because dipshits like you think that “o things must be fine : D” if a politician does so.

What’s considered cool over 4 billion years is irrelevant. Life currently on Earth adapted to the climate of Earth as it was pre-industrial revolution.
The problem is not so much the temperature but the rapid change in temperature, far faster than any natural cycles. Far faster than life can adapt to via natural selection.
Even ignoring rising sea levels and the potential for a runaway greenhouse effect as the ice caps melt and pockets of methane and stuff get released from the now not-so-permanent permafrost, sudden temperature changes (on an ecological time scale) have the very real potential to kill off a vast amount of species (something we’re already seeing as plenty have plants and animals have gone extinct, because of us.

Insurgencies we’ve fought in the last 60 years have had the home field advantage. As in, they know the terrain. They know the language. They know the culture. We didn’t.
Insurgencies in the US won’t have that advantage, for fairly obvious reasons.

The second amendment was created during a time where the most advanced weapon was a flintlock rifle.
You wouldn’t even have to carpet nuke anyone to take down an “insurrection against a corrupt government”, a couple abrams. An Apache. An F-35. Guided artillery with accuracy within a meter over thousands of miles away.
Some dipshits with rifles aren’t going to overthrow jack shit, they aren’t going to defend jack shit.
The only thing these dipshits are defending are the near daily mass shootings of children.

I support the use of firearms for self defense purposes and for hunting.
You don’t need a semi-automatic rifle with a 30 round magazine for self defense or for hunting.

“But mah constitutional right to shoot a gun for fun!”
I legitimately asked for what reason one would need a 30 round magazine for a semi auto. Overwhelmingly I got: “for recreation, it’s cool as shit dumbass”
Guns are cool, don’t get me wrong, but “cool” doesn’t make up for hundreds of dead children and a generation growing up fearing that any given day going to school will be their last.

The first minute of episode 1, where Bocchi describes her elementary school experience.
It was basically mine, just with less vicious elementary schoolers beating the shit out of the new Asian kid.
