This comment is way too far down.

“Magic system” is a bit of an oxymoron

This is just the currently accepted terminology in world building: https://rebeccashedd.com/2024/10/25/the-worldbuilders-toolkit-building-a-magic-system/

I’m just extending this to sci-fi also, as have many others, because they’re basically the same thing, only that the sci-fi magic systems are vaugely based on real-life science (but vary wildly how closely).

Think Stargate with their loosey-goosey ancients and accession, vs the much more grounded The Expanse.

I’m just not a fan of magic systems without any rules at all.

Hence why I find supernatural stories less interesting, which streaming services, book shops, and movie theatres, frustratingly categorise under fantasy. They are very different from sci-fi and fantasy, in my opinion.

If your magic is purely “mysterious”, that’s boring, and lazy story-telling (In my opinion).

Just joking around, but yeah, I personally enjoy what I call “supernatural” stories less than sci-fi and fantasy with proper world-building

Soft magic systems aren’t any fun. Change my mind.

Christianity, stranger things and paranormal activity are equally as uninteresting to me because it’s “because I said so”. Boooooooo, come up with some rules for your world.

Can we make a new category of fiction called “supernatural” SEPARATE from sci-fi and fantasy? Thanks, that would be nice.

It’s almost like the “meritocracy” under capitalism is a bald faced lie.

Ooooh, many thanks haha

This is the first useful example of fahrenheit I’ve ever heard.

Doesn’t really beat 0°C being freezing (great for weather), in my opinion, but still nice!

Thanks

Care to explain?

I thought you might mean -40°C = -40°F

Does this mean the big bang happened in -273.15 BC?

I completely agree, well put

I’m not from the US, but it would seem to me that public cameras should only be accessible for legitimate purposes.

Police should need to request footage, but similarly, you shouldn’t be able to just request any footage willy nilly, because of stalking.

Seems that it should be tightly regulated and require multiple people to gain access, and be documented who was given access.

Overall your comment seems like a great suggestion to me. If footage “goes missing”, they had better have way more evidence to back up their charges.

Turbulence seems to be to be deterministic chaos, that if we had perfect resolution, and unlimited processing power, we could predict turbulent flow with precision.

Thank you Egyptians! 𓆏𓆏𓆏

This is an argument that gets rolled out a lot but the argument is also based on vibes.

Celcius having zero at freeing is actually useful with weather.

100 being boiling, is also nice for cooking.

The rest is arbitrary, and cope from US customary users who can’t accept that metric is the same or better in every single way.

Found the Americans.

I kid, but it’s °C, not C°

And K had no degrees at all.

The other two units are not mentioned in this household.

K is obviously pointing at R because Rankine is an abomination in the same vein as pound-mole and thousands of an inch.

Motherfuckers, metric is right there, get your disgusting units out of here.

Anyone who uses either of these units in the last 40 or 50 years, I would like to physically fight with you. I have never thrown hands.

*Gasp in Anime* That’s impossible!!

This guy seems to think it’s equivalent to “by magic”.

I bring a portable screen from home, bringing me to a total of 4 with the laptop screen.

But I just like lots of monitors
