Robots figuring out that without humans releasing gas their job is a lot more efficient could cause a few problems.

No officer, this is not a pirated movie. It’s generated by an AI model I created and trained with data from the internet and the fact that it’s 99% identical to an existing movie is irrelevant.

Oh, it’s now tied into Xbox Live so you need an Xbox account, get achievements, collectibles, challenges and making it ad free requires a subscription of €1.99 per month. Not shitting you.

Now I feel old for also playing Castle Wolfenstein

4°C warmer in February than the preindustrial average where I live. 4 full degree. That’s going to leave a mark. Of course people are saying it’s nice it’s not that cold. On that other hand, warmer means nothing but gloomy clouds and so much rain farmers can’t work their fields that are now just rivers of mud.

That’s certainly not proper imperial. The number is too big. In imperial you invent a new word if things get too hard to count on your fingers. Something like 6 dicks is 1 fest and 9 fests is 1 celebration.
