Ahh okay, I think I get what you’re getting at. It’s like how if you dry off after a shower, your towel is damp and not wet because you’re just looking at saturation.

Yep, you put it better than I did! Even if the air is fully humid, you're still not wet, as there won't be liquid water on you. Once there's enough to actually form liquid water, you'll be wet.

I’d be surprised if other languages call the air “wet” because that’s an English word. In Chinese, we’d call humidity 湿度 which means “degree of wet”.

Fair point, I didn't know about Chinese. I was talking about other languages I know, none of which refer to humidity as wetness (in the respective language obviously), they all use separate words.

Water molecules can't be in a liquid state, it's only the aggregate that's liquid. Therefore water molecules can't be wet.

Yes, the water in the air is not liquid water, just like individual water molecules are not liquid water. You got it!

A measurement of humidity, as the name suggests.

Please just explain why we don't call humid air "wet". I've never heard anyone call it that in any language. How can this be?

If air with 0% humidity can be called dry, then air with humidity can be called wet.

Yet we don't do this, we call it humid.

So literally everything on the surface of the planet, in every building, in every room, is wet? That makes it a completely useless definition and is obviously not what anyone means when they're talking about something being "wet".

Then literally everything is wet, because the air contains water molecules! But we don't say everything is wet, just like water molecules touching water molecules don't make each other wet.

Did both services have separate content catalogues?

No Fortnite

The cats were like "eh, can take it or leave it"

Personally I don't think that's okay. Too many, so you won't be able to properly care for them.

Consider that each cat person should get a couple hours of attention every day - how could you find the time for all 5?

So it was just bad choreography? Seems strange that it's so much worse for this one show. Though if I'm honest, the first season was really ass in all aspects

Those are life boats for the women and children

Expert loafage

Is there anything better than a good nap with a cat? I think not

One of. Not the oldest meme, one of the oldest.

OOPSIE WOOPSIE!! Uwu We made a fucky wucky!! A wittle fucko boingo! The code monkeys at our headquarters are working VEWY HAWD to fix this!

Am I alone in thinking this is funny? I mean, I wouldn't buy this cookie cutter on its own, but if I bought a collection of cat cookie cutters, I'd definitely use this one too.

You can't kill plastic by baking, you just turn it into even worse stuff

About to test it out on Flatpak in the coming days! I just tried installing it a couple weeks ago, and neither the Linux nor the Proton version worked for more than a few minutes. Was a big surprise, given how good Linux support for Source etc. is.
