Grams are a measure of weight (well, mass if you want to be really specific). Tablespoons are a measure of volume. In order to do a proper comparison you need to know density.
Because metric plans things nicely, a gram is one milliliter of water. 4 tbsp is 59.15ml. So… Yeah, pretty damn close to 60, but again that’s when working with water. I would imagine chili flakes are a little less dense and might throw that calculation off a bit.
And 4 tbsp would be triple 4 tsp, or 54 grams. Similar ballpark at least.
Oh good, as long as they’re safe!
Don’t forget about Tobler’s first law of geography.
Everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things
Cultural patterns will generally follow migration of people, which will largely be localized, but of course there are exceptions in which case you can get some interesting blends.
And when it all crumbles within the first year, what will happen to the billions of dollars charged for admission?
I am honestly pleasantly surprised at everything the industry came up with in that generation, in hindsight. Maybe those kinds of games were a little overrepresented, but you still had Super Mario 64, Pilot wings, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, Smash Bros (not fully 3D but that may be a good thing from a game play aspect), two Zelda masterpieces, Mario Party, some solid wrestling games, and a few Final Fantasy games (I never played them but I don’t think they’re shooters and definitely not racing games)
There were some flopped consoles just prior to the N64/PS1 like the Saturn and Atari Jaguar that probably helped the industry figure out what doesn’t work well in 3D gaming. Maybe they still had some stuff to figure out, but that was a pretty good era IMO.
Mmmk, better abandon this “money” experiment. Surprised it only lasted thousands of years, but I’m sure human nature will adapt

Kinda sorta. I’m firmly in the millennial generation, so there aren’t as many computers older than me. But I can tell you about my dad bringing home a brand new 486 (25MHz) and temporarily setting it up for the first time on the kitchen table, before it was officially set up downstairs.
In high school I got a handful of leftover computers to play with. Some early Pentiums, a really weird 486 tablet (still have that in my crawlspace!), and stuff like that. Great to learn hardware on, do some homework in my room, listen to Winamp, etc.
Then college came and I had less time and space. Then I bought a home a couple years later (when they were all on sale!) and had a kid. Most of my time and money goes to those things.
But! I hate where technology is going now. I remember things being fun and innovative, rather than yet another thing weirdly integrated with an app on your phone (likely with a subscription 🙄 ). So I’ve spent some time restoring antique radios, and put together some fun projects I’ve found that use a 3D printer and Raspberry Pi, including a working mini computer that runs a Dosbox instance with my favorite games from that 486.
Tl;dr not that young by Lemmy standards, but I get it!

Well, that’s a brand new sentence!
I feel like bread’s limited shelf life, and all the nasties that accumulate in a normal mattress from normal use, would make this idea fucking disgusting. Just leave a loaf of bread on your nightstand like a normal person.
When the Denver Post got bought out by a private equity company (you know how that goes), a bunch of journalists from there got together to create the Colorado Sun. It operates on a model similar to NPR/PBS, except federal/Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding was never a thing to begin with.
I’m not sure how well it’s working, but well enough that they’re still around after several years!
The big difference being that one thing being owned is completely inanimate, and the other is a literal human being against their will 🤷♂️
Clearly you are much smarter than myself. Can you tell me why renting land/a home is different than any other object that can be owned? Obviously shelter is a greater need than a chainsaw I could rent at Home Depot, but I thought the basic concepts should still apply?
And again, maybe I’m not smart enough to understand what you’re saying, but it seems like land owners (or “speculators”, if that’s the correct term now 🤷♂️) prohibit access to everyone except for tenants, and tenants instead have rights to use that property?
Another thing to check, do you pre-warm the bottle? If not, it will absorb the heat of (ie, cool down) the coffee as soon as you pour it in. But if you get scalding hot water from your faucet or a kettle, pour it in, wait a minute, and dump it you will have a warm bottle that won’t feel the need to take as much heat from the coffee.
