Yes, but cats can’t taste sweet so they don’t normally bother with it.

I learnt it as BODMAS (brackets, orders, division and multiplication, addition and subtraction).

Edit: I see we’re repeating points from the earlier posts down there 👇 (with default sort).

Have you seen the footage of scientists feeding them from their own arms? Nooope, not for all the tea in China.

I’m currently living somewhere hot enough that the little pricks are a bother all year round.

It is, although since I’m not used to US outlets it looks like a one-eyed pig to me.

Perhaps it’s funded by Scrooge McDuck’s PR team.

If you’d posted the Spanish version, you’d have done exactly what I came to the comments to do.

I enjoy the contradiction of middleend

Given that the internet is a series of tubes, it’s a better mnemonic since the pipe connection will help you remember it.

You mean Cloudflare is down this evening. Timezones, how do they work?

Yup, as long as 6.5 is pronounced “six and a half” because “six point five” is too modern for old money.

Edit: and ha’penny is pronounced HAYP-nee /h ɛ́j p n ɪj/

I do that (but only for one hand), and I’ve also associated months with each segment.

I had to think how you got to 156 instead of 12² but not for too long.

Again, that’s not how clocks work. The label on an analogue clock appears at the end of the hour segment. If the hour hand is halfway between two times, it’s half past the lower one.

If, as you argue, two is at the top (like in OP’s picture), that means that when the day starts and the hour hand is pointing up then it’s already in the second hour. Half an hour later it would appear halfway between two and twelve which is an hour ahead of where it should be.

But that’s not how clocks work - when the day starts on a normal clock it’s not 1 o’clock straight away, there’s an hour that happens first. The label is at the end of the hour’s segment.

Think about it this way: when a new day begins, where are the clock hands?

I did, the hour hand would be pointing at the (end of the) final hour, which is now eight. The minute hand’s position is a whole different discussion.

Indeed, which is why 8 should be at the top.

The hours have been reassigned in reverse alphabetical order. This means the number which you hit at noon/midnight is “eight”.

I’m happy to believe it’s intentional - some metahumour (metaprogrammerhumour).

Shouldn’t 2 be where 1 normally is, etc and 8 be at the top?

edit: I see you’d posted a similar one a few days ago and that had the same thing. Off by one, an evergreen programming error!

That’s how I understood it, but you could read it as saying the author’s experience with Win11 revealed problems with his previous setup (i.e. Linux).

On first glance, I understood the title as saying there were nine problems in Win11; it might be ambiguous but I don’t think it’s fair to label it as very deceptive.
