  • At which scale (real world day to day life situation) when each extra digit of pi become necessary?

  • The answer to your question is as simple as it is unsatisfying. Additional degrees of precision in construction are only as useful as your means to use them.

    If you using your saw can only cut to an accuracy of 1/8 of an inch, than any precision beyond that point is lost as you are unable to actualize it

    However if you are using a saw and you're now at the point of your personal skill that you're measuring to the inside or outside of the mark on a ruler, then it is likely time for you to graduate between more precise form of measurement.

    This video covers a lot of the interesting points around measurement and how we can never truly be perfectly accurate with any measurement of any non-discreet metric.

    To give a real world example if you are off by a millimeter diameter when building a car engine cylinder it will likely fail.

  • In most cases, local governments use direct cremation to dispose of unclaimed bodies and the cremains are stored for a set period of time. After being stored the cremains may be scattered. The Cremation Society of North America has estimated that there are currently 2 million unclaimed cremated remains in the U.S.

    Some counties elect to bury unclaimed bodies. Typically, the body is buried in an unmarked grave that is county-owned. If a family member later comes forward the body may be exhumed upon request.

    Other states allow for unclaimed bodies to be donated for medical science. There are also state laws that allow for the unclaimed bodies of veterans to be buried by third party groups.

    This is for unclaimed bodies, if your body is claimed by your family then the cost is taken out of your estate or your family have to pay for it.

    Dairy milk is far better than any of the fake alternatives

  • Ehh, does this post really add anything? They just said a thing is better than another thing but specified no reason why, how, or by what criteria. It's just a simple rage bait.

    Jump

  • How is dairy milk, which 65% of the human population is unable to drink easily due to lactose intolerance, better than almond milk which only about 10% of people are allergic to?

    Or is what you're saying here "I like the taste of dairy milk more than nut or soy milks" and your being overly dramatic?

  • Happy Straturday!

  • Howdy, that's a mighty fine bass you got there. Even if it has a few many strings. I also think you misspelled 'Saturday' but there's no sense in worrying about the small stuff. I hope you have a good weekend.

    If you were immortal and your lover wasn't (or roles reversed), would you still wanna experience the happieness and joy of love despite the inievtable happening in time?

    Jump

  • This question is less interesting when in context of how we normally think about loved ones, being that they are around for most of your life.

    When you immortal that's no longer the case, you'll eventually have a relationship with loved ones similar to a person who has had countless pets over the course of their life. The love a person holds for their pet is real, but it isn't exactly the same as "the love of your life".

  • The only proper political model to implement is a tychacracy where all decisions are governed by pure random chance. Every single post shall have the following.

    20% the is removed

    20% the post is untouched

    20% the post is pinned. If the pin count is limited, pins are organized by first in first out.

    20% the user is banned for life with no chance for appeal

    20% the user is made a moderator

    May the odds be in your favor!
