Project Farm did a test of nonstick pans and a seasoned cast iron pan, and the outcome was essentially that cast iron isn't non-stick. It wasn't even close compared to any of the non-stick surfaces.
There's a clip going around of Jordan Peterson threatening to use his Bronco to splash someone with cold slushy water.
I rode a bike everywhere in the frozen north for several years (and not somewhere like Vancouver, somewhere it actually gets cold like -40 for weeks at a time) and he's talking about the difference between the fantasy of electric vehicles or other alternatives to current transportation being touted and the reality that when it's cold and icy out you want a dependable and warm vehicle.
EVs in cold conditions charge more slowly, and don't have as much energy available (or the battery can be conditioned, meaning energy is required to keep the battery in the ideal temperature range), and to heat the cabin you presently use resistive heating which is a pure burning of energy which directly impacts your vehicle range, and if it's so cold you can die if your vehicle stops, vehicle range stops being a mere anxiety and becomes an existential threat. It either brings you warm to your destination or there's a good chance you die.
The whole rhetorical device was dumb and the delivery was bad, but the core point is correct as long as we're thinking about how to actually successfully achieve a thing instead of just proclaiming the problem solved and yelling louder than anyone who says anything differently. EV sales are way down at the moment and I think that this is a core part of the reason, because a lot of people don't trust that they're going to work when they need it.

It's been pretty cool where I live not just last year but this year too. I just got in from outside, sitting in front of a heater trying to warm up (but today is particularly cold)
I'm actually thankful. I've been trying to make it a habit to get out with my son every single day I'm at home so he's getting a normal childhood as opposed to an iPod kid YouTube nanny childhood, and I've been largely succeeding during the spring and summer, we haven't had any days so hot we couldn't go outside. Usually days we don't make it out are cold and rainy.

My favorite woodchipper themed anime.
I do wish half the character designs were hugely different, but I like a lot of the story and the magic world building.

I'd treat it a bit differently than that because rather than affecting the rate of heat transfer, the evaporation actually creates a new area of lower temperature. Matters thermodynamically because rather than just bleeding energy into the atmosphere to reach equalibrium. you are using the phase change to create a lower temperature equalibrium. That's how humans can survive in temperatures greater than 100F.
Humidity matters because evaporating water soaks up energy making a thing cooler, so warm temperatures in 0% humidity for a human being will be actually cooler than the same temperature in 100% humidity since the energy is being used on evaporation but the water can't go anywhere otherwise. With the fan, either it's assisting with evaporation making you much cooler or it's just pushing air cooler than yourself over you. The former is far more effective.
There are house coolers that use this principle called "bog coolers" that spray water on a heat exchanger cooling it.

I bet it's the obvious ruling that presidents have sovereign immunity to actions taken in their role as president.
Anyone with two brain cells to rub together would know that's the case, but because it's orange man they can't wrap their heads around the fact that if it was any other way it would open every Democrat president up to getting charged for things that happened in the normal course of government business.

I was watching a react video to one of shoeonheads videos and she described this as the story behind her marriage, so I guess unironically...
If people could shut the retard part of their brains off regarding trump, they would realize just how dangerous a military coup is, even if you like what the coup was standing for. The number of senior people in the military who have proudly admitted that they committed treason against the commander-in-chief of the United States military, and the head of the civilian government is absurd, and there need to be consequences.
"Oh but Trump is evil drumphler!" It doesn't fucking matter! Maybe you agreed with the military coup this time, well what about if you don't agree with it next time? These guys need to stay in their Lane -- their job is not to second against the civilian leadership, it's do their job. If they want to apply for a job as president, they can go right ahead and they'll lose because nobody likes them.

As I recall, the book of Apocalypse was written after John was being really pushed down by the Roman empire, so for his prophecy about how the Roman empire could get fucked needed to be written in code or he was gonna have a real bad time.
EGA is a really strange standard.
It uses an RGBI monitor, so it has 16 set colors. You can have a combination of R, G, and B, and that combination can be either low intensity or high intensity. It's a digital standard, so those aren't running at different levels, you get on or off for each signal line.
Meanwhile, the palette behind the scenes is 6-bit, so you have 4 levels of blue that can coexist with 4 levels of green that can coexist with 4 levels of red. While you can set all these colors, the monitor can only display the set 16 colors, so whatever scene you draw with 64 colors, you're only displaying 16 colors.
It's like being really imaginative so you can imagine these beautiful paintings, but you suck at art so it comes out pretty bad despite that.
That's a contrast with CGA, which had the exact same 4-bit color depth on the screen, but could only display 2 bit color in graphics modes, limiting graphics to 4 colors.
VGA was really the point that video games were able to become really visually amazing. You could display 256 colors, and you could also decide which 256 colors you wanted to display from a huge selection of thousands of colors. In addition, mode 13h was dead simple to put graphics on the screen for, being a direct bitmap, so it was dead simple to code.
