Also the CM tip guy is aixler afaik imperial units are massively more ridiculous than F though
like yes F is dumb and we should use C/K but on a practical day to day basis outside of a lab using F just means learning a dumb threshold for freezing.
Imperial units are actually a pain in the ass to deal with even when you're used to them because 12 inches in a foot and 5280 feet in a mile WTF like I'm a math nerd but those are not convenient numbers for mental math
I do use C in the US just to be obnoxious tho

Oh i hate imperial units far more than i ever will fahrenheit, i agree fully that F is obviously working for everyday use, but i also firmly believe that it would even help kids learning math/physics to have a logical system to use.

Also what's up with all the streaming lately? Is it just the downtime between tournaments? I feel like there's a good stream up at basically anytime i check.

People should watch Banana btw. He just started streaming this week or last week and he has a webcam up with good commentary during games. He's really active with chat and seems like a fun/nice guy. Also really sick on a lot of the FOTM carry heroes so if you want to learn those...

oh man aui/blitz stack vs kong patsoul stack now hahahahaha
I was gonna squeeze in some dota tonight but guess I'm just watching lol

I'm really happy he started streaming, fortunately his channel saves vods and they aren't muted :D
monkeys forever also has a pretty nice stream although it's like 90% SF lol, the Root guys seem pretty cool

BananaSlamJamma, reigning NEL champion. He's quite good, with very minimal amounts of bitching in the few hours I've caught his stream. Pretty much only plays 1/2/jungle carry.

I get confused when we start talking about stones and weird british measurements that have never made sense. Also clothing/shoe sizes, I don't even know where to start with how confusing those are.
That being said, the low is -13 and we have 15 inches of snow. Last time we had more than a foot in this area was in like 1994 and it was only barely below freezing then. Pretty shitty week for getting anything done
