No. Switch 3 will be another "instabuy" after some flavor-of-the-week TikTok influencer uploads a video saying they will buy it.

The whole world spiraled into degeneracy.

This has the funny consequence that moving by a fifth and then by a fourth doesn’t land you on the ninth, but the octave (8). Moving by an octave and then another octave gets you to the 15th, not the 16th.

This is worded confusingly. The reason for this is simply because you include the base note when you start counting, so if you stop midway and stack another interval on top, you have to account for that stop because it decreases the total travel distance by one.

This is done to actually increase consistency. If you start at c1 and move up an octave and then move up another octave, you stop at c3 which is logical. So you either move 2 octaves or one 15th because 2*8-1 = 15.

When I was in elementary, my teacher said that "Lutetia" was how the Romans called the city of Liege. As an avid reader of Asterix comics, I knew this isn't true and corrected her and said it was the Roman name of Paris. She insisted that it is Liege. Anyway, the next day, she came back to class and said that she looked it up and that I was indeed correct and Lutetia referred to Paris and gave me a chocolate bar and told me to keep reading comics. Good teacher.

At first I thought it was blown out of proportion, too. After watching the video, I can only say that if he did that in Germany, he would have been arrested on stage. Let's see what topic-relatedly, profoundly knowledgeable Benito Mussolini, allegedly, had to say:

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power."

Ah, ok, thanks Benito! Enjoy your fascism that you voted for, America. I hope those egg prices will go down (they won't).

ITT: people who undercook their chicken think that washing is what's saving them when in reality, washing your chicken only enables a host of cross-contamination issues. Congratulations for turning your sink into a biohazard facility.

That is not a horn. Purple correctly identified it as a trumpet.

Yes, it's @elonmusk

Mammals use boob-juice to raise their offspring. That's why they are called that.

As opposed to e.g. birds that don't use boob-juice and instead elect to vomit in their offspring's ingestion orifices.

US politics are so wild that it's really hard for me to distingish satire from reality.

This is called parthenogenesis and is a known phenomenon, albeit rare in vertebrates. Some species, like the New Mexico whiptail, rely on it (all New Mexico whiptails are female).

Here is a paper from 2007 that talks about parthenogenesis in hammerhead sharks..

I'd like to solve, Alex:

What are different places on Earth from where the eclipse is visible?

Is there any hope for me?

Yes, public transport.
