Listen, I'm happy for everything that makes communicating easier but to paint Google and Android as some champions of messaging is just straight up crazy.

I was an android user since the beginning of modern smart phones (and before that I used Windows Mobile 6.5 😵‍💫) and messaging has been an absolute shit-show on android for almost the entire time. Google finally had a good solution with Hangouts (circa 2014) but they killed it and spawned so many messaging clones that I lost count.

The reason why we have such fragmentation and so many different apps we have to juggle to communicate on android is because of the clear lack of vision and leadership in that area in Google.

Even RCS is freaking fragmented as well. Take for example E2E encryption, that doesn't work unless you go through google's servers which you can't really guarantee so you're getting a different "RCS" UX depending on who you're texting and what servers are being used on the backend.

After I switched to iPhone from Android it was like a slap in the face on how much better just communicating to people was on iPhone. Google isn't the fucking hero here.

It seems like it used to be 35° but now it’s ~34°.

I don’t have access to the actually study but I would hypothesize that it’s likely because we are seeing more studies about things like this and as we collect more data that’s changing these values to be closer to what we see in the real world.

It’s also at 100% humidity in case that wasn’t clear.

Edit: ok so what he posted wasn’t wrong but the study said that it could be as low as that for some groups of people. For the average person it’s almost 10 degrees C higher which is lower than it used to be.

However for heat sensitive people (not sure what that means) it can be disturbingly low

His ass. This is a conspiracy theory that’s been going around for ages with dubious sources at best.

My only regret is that I have but 1 upvote to give you. This is a fantastic summary!

Honestly, everyone else has it spot on with the retirement advice. Even people that are north of $10M net worth follow that same advice.

For personal day-to-day stuff I would recommend You Need A Budget.

This is a fantastic way to keep a budget.

Ignorance is ok but apathy is not

I misspoke. I meant this isn’t in front of the Supreme Court currently. It might be making its way up there though.

There was a script for one but Alan Rickman passed away (😭😭😭) and it got shelved. There are always rumors circling about still but nothing concrete.
