How anyone sees a news link from a .co.uk domain and doesn't immediately treat it with skepticism bordering on derision is something I'm having trouble figuring out It's not an undiagnosed tumor on the kid's hypothalamus or an issue of packing the letters for the banner in the wrong order, it's a tabloid journalist fishing for pageviews

I'm in the mid-Atlantic, and my makeup practically melted off my face by the time I got to work today. I wasn't even really sweating, the air itself is wet.

Data Graham posted:Since moving to New York it has not stopped infuriating me that I can leave out an opened can of almonds, with the lid on, for like a week before they start turning loving gummy and soft. What in the actual hell, almonds do not do that. I....what? What kind of mutant almonds are you buying? I live in NYC and do not have almond probs. Perhaps you have an almond-hating ghost? Or your overly negative POV is causing your food to spoil, just like that one Japanese scientist said it would?

I came in from a walk a few days ago and was amazed at how hot and sweaty I was, even though the felt temperature was only like 85 and I'm acclimated to Florida weather. Turns out the humidity was 78%. It's seriously like a sauna.

radiatinglines posted:The 80s are nothing, it hovers around 100 for like 3 and a half months straight in Dallas. I have no ac where I work and it's 95 degrees right now. poo poo a couple years ago here in Texas we had a solid two-month period where it never went below 100. 80 is positively cool.

We routinely get days with 100% humidity here.

Since I started this whole weather thing I guess I'll throw out my absolute worst type. It's 100% humidity at 32 degrees F. If it starts "raining" it's literally like breathing a snowcone. The water in the air just hovering between freezing and humditiy. You add freezing rain to that poo poo show and you basically got the feeling of walking to work through a frozen pond.

TEMPCHAT IS THE GREATEST No but really I grew up in Montana where it'd go from 110 in the summers to -30 in the winters on a bad year, but the humidity would keep sub-10% and it was never that bad either way. Then I move to Illinois and it gets to seventy five degrees here and I want to die.

*runs in, panting and sweaty* GUYS ITS LIKE ELEVENTY BILLION HERE WITH HUNDRED PERCENT HUMIDITY. HA MY WEATHER IS WORSE THAN YOURS HA In other news, the Philippines elected an actual gangster to be the president office. In a completely predictable turn of events, he's started advocating for people to murder drug users/drug dealers. I'm sure that the extrajudicial killings will be reasoned and totally not about petty vengeance, no sir.

Some personal schadenfreude: I found out my ex-stepdad, who was a wife beating sonuvabitch, is now stuck in a cheapass nursing home, sharing a room with seven other people. He rarely gets visitors and his legs have stopped working. Also, he can't play his prized guitar collection because there is nowhere for him to store them onsite My justice boner has been a diamond cutter all loving day ever since I heard this.

The Locator posted:But.. but... it's a dry heat! It never ceases to amaze me the stupid places people choose to live. "OK, this here is open desert, with no potable water for a billion miles in any direction. The temperature routinely reaches levels that will kill you on the walk between your car and your front door. The vegetation consists of inedible scrub, and the wildlife is made up of big-horned sheep and poisonous arachnids. We've pre-sold 10,000 units. We break ground, tomorrow." I lived in Las Vegas until this past January, but that's different somehow.

More on the steam gambling fiasco where idiots on YouTube didn't think it was a problem that they were promoting the Counter strike gambling websites that they also happened to own: Valve has decided they like the money they're making from this slightly less than they hate being sued for facilitating children getting into gambling, and are shutting them all down. They're not saying how they'll shut it down, but I assume it's going to be trivial for them. The schaden is on the idiots who got exposed who couldn't keep their hands out of the till, because I'm pretty sure Valve were happy to let this fly under the radar while no one was talking about it, as they were getting 15% of each transaction.
