CIPM has proposed[7] revised definitions of the SI base units, for consideration at the 26th CGPM. The formal vote, which took place on 16 November 2018,[8] approved the change,[9] with the new definitions coming into force on 20 May 2019.[10] The accepted redefinition defines the Planck constant as exactly 6.62607015×10−34 kg⋅m2⋅s−1, thereby defining the kilogram in terms of the second and the metre.[2] Since the metre is defined as a time fraction of the speed of light in vacuum, then the kilogram is defined in terms of the time only.

The avoirdupois (or international) pound, used in both the imperial and US customary systems, is now defined in terms of the kilogram.[11] Other traditional units of weight and mass around the world are now also defined in terms of the kilogram, making the kilogram the primary standard for virtually all units of mass on Earth.

It's ok because US customary units are based off of the same kilogram.

330 is a standard serving size in Europe. 300 is also common.

huh. i did not realize the british pint was different from a normal pint

The imperial pint (≈ 568 ml) is used in the United Kingdom and Ireland and to a limited extent in Commonwealth nations. In the United States, two pints are used: a liquid pint (≈ 473 ml) and a less-common dry pint (≈ 551 ml). Each of these pints is one-eighth of its respective gallon, but the gallons differ.

also, i didn't know gallons were different

the correct serving size entirely depends on the kind of beer. kölsch should be served in 0.2l glasses, a pils should be served in 0.3l glasses and a helles in a 1l glas.

a cheap lager should come in as big of a can as it is sold. and weizen should be poured straight into the toilet, where it belongs.

nah, small is good. the 1l thing is cumbersome and it'll go both warm and flat unless very bad things are happening (at which point just have some tequila and save yourself the upnp issues)

obviously. 0.5l is also acceptable for helles. tbh if you want to enjoy it, it's the better choice by far. but then you miss out on the original bavarian experience, ie drinking until you pee yourself, getting into fights while drunk, throwing up, sexually assaulting strangers, etc. you know, culture

yeah, that is a happy place, taste-testing work one hand and a glass of wine (or beer in cases where the food calls for that) in the other

i found a dusty old adderall in a drawer and thought it would be a good time to play poker, so i logged in to be greeted by this:



to give context, you start with 15,000 by default and i usually have a balance of about 500k, then i'll flameout in an expensive tourney and start from rock bottom again. i know they're just play chips, but even that's like $50 worth. it's also ludicrous seeing as even 1 million chip single table tourneys take forever to fill out.

i normally play when getting blackout hammered and i don't ever buy chips. i have no recollection of winning that large of a prize, but last time i played i killed a fifth of crown reserve and the leftovers of a bottle of bushmills from thanksgiving and had a solid full day hangover. looks like i'm gonna need try this winning formula at the casino and report back. at worst i'll be out $500 and have to nurse a hangover from my comped room at the four seasons.
