Why do you have to “deal with him forever”?

I’d start by questioning my assumptions were I in your shoes.

Yes. 20-21 is a good temperature range for sleep.

Simple conversion system:

• proper temperatures to American moon units: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=25C+in+F
• American moon units to proper temperatures: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=77F+in+C

Either copy the URL and change the temperature (25C or 77F) to your target, or click on the URL and change the input field.

Whatever temperature the outside air is except in the summer when it gets obnoxiously hot and humid, at which point I put a cap of 25°C on the temperature.

So last night it started around 24° at nightfall and fell to 21° in the wee hours.

Same thing I do every Sunday. A few chores and, sunlight permitting, maybe some photos for photo essays.

I gave you an example of a possible model.

READ A BOOK BEFORE OPENING YOUR MOUTH AND SPEWING DRIVEL.

I’m not here to give you an Education 101 course. (Frankly, given your performance here thus far, I’m not even certain you could understand the contents of such a course.)

And if “throw everything way but this one thing” isn’t “one size fits all” what is it!? You’re literally saying "everything being done now is wrong and we should do this ONE THING for everyone. That’s practically the definition of “one size fits all”!

I get it. You’re a techie and have been trained by techie culture to think (or at least pretend) you’re the smartest person in the room. But to first causally dismiss literally decades of research to then propose a “solution” that is risible on the face of it goes well past typical techie arrogance and into Elon Musk territory.

Part of it was. Part of it was me running it past someone I know who studies Old English. :D

I’m sorry you’re both colourblind and innumerate. It must be tough going through life with both those conditions!

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Throne room? Emperor with Luke and Vader? Jabba part?

RotJ?

Are you trying to push that silly 4chan conspiracy theory that there were movies after The Empire Strikes Back?

Look, I get it. Everybody wanted to see how things would turn out after the downer ending of Empire, but it just didn’t happen. You don’t have to hallucinate a hundred more movies like some kind of prehistoric LLM!

And it shows in your death rate.

Wuhan, Hubei, China.

My nick-knacks cupboard is a total mess: overfilled and has things just hastily tossed into it to the point that opening it guarantees that something will fall out onto you. I’ve been meaning to empty it and refill it in an orderly fashion, perhaps added dividers and bins as appropriate to help keep it organized.

For twelve years.

This is something I could literally do in an afternoon of light labour, but I haven’t.

You use tones all the time. It’s just that you call it “intonation” and it’s at the semantic level of the language. In the various tonal languages (most of them in the Chinese family) they’re part of the lexis and called “tones”.

The difficulty isn’t in pronouncing them. Trust me, you pronounce the four tones of Mandarin ALL THE TIME when speaking English. The difficulty lies in the fact you’re using them for radically different purposes and this is screwing up the wiring in your head.

Your takeaway from this is that I was commenting on standardization?

Weird.

Unsurprising, but weird.

Yeah, it’s a pretty simple language, though you have to be VERY aware of context or you lose the thread rapidly.

I appreciate how information dense it is, though, if you’re paying attention.

I know.

The rest of the bullshit is what I’m talking about.

At any rate you show no signs of knowing how to actually converse, so goodbye.

Are you having an aneurysm? Or are you a malfunctioning LLM responding randomly to posts or something? This is the second time you’ve replied to me and in both cases what you responded with was a) incoherent, and b) not actually relevant to what you’re responding to.

What the fuck are you on about? Are we playing a game of Non Sequitur? If we are, here’s my turn:

I’ve got new socks on.

You got it. I’m waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too lazy to do it right!
