  If you are presenting content online w/o any audience interaction... you should call that “making a video” and stop doing it live over Zoom. Learn to edit, get a camera, start making something actually watchable.
  
  Talking over text-laden PowerPoint slides was never a good idea.

  Also... Celsius.
  
  0° = freezing water
  100° = boiling water
  20° = room temperature
  
  Such nice, easy numbers to remember.
  

  I'm all for metric for everything except temperature. That 0-100 only works for water. Fahrenheit does better at expressing temperature ranges that humans live in. e.g. "50s" (sweaters), "70s" (comfortable), "90s" (too hot).

  I dunno though.
  
  0 = jacket
  10 = sweater
  20 = room temp
  30 = hot day
  
  Those are pretty straight forward.
  

  Maybe I'm more sensitive to smaller temperature changes, cause for me the difference between 70°F and 80°F is huge, and that's just 21°C-26°C

  Caleb, usually I agree with you. But this time I have to say “everyone is entitled to their own opinion… unless they’re wrong” 😂 Celsius is logical. 0°C=freezing H2O and 100°C=boiling, vs 32°F/212°F. 0F and 100F mean nothing.
  

  oh no. Celsius is only logical for water and science. For communicating with people about livable temperature ranges Fahrenheit is much more expressive!

  fwiw I was determined to switch to Celsius a few years ago, and actually set all my devices to it. I lasted about 8 months, in a temperature range from 10-36, and concluded that Fahrenheit is more expressive and switched back.

  Also… water is everything. When does rain become sleet and snow? Near zero. When do puddles freeze? Near zero. When do roads become icy? Near zero. C. Always C. What’s “hot” out? To some, 70F is hot. Others, 80. Or 90. Or 100. Subjective.
  

  okay new scale:
  
  0° = freezing point of water
  100° = 130°F (approx highest recorded temperature)
  
  Best of both C and F.

  Well @curtisjudd, @EposVox, and @GeraldUndone have all convinced me to get the zoom F6.
  
  Decided I wanted a good recorder to go with my new microphone.

  
  

  After you tweeted that I went and looked it up, and I think this is the answer to getting good audio for livestreaming from the ATEM Mini Pro *while also* feeding into a Zoom/Skype call and routing that call back into the ATEM. Gonna give that a shot!

  Still funny to me all this talk about SF/Silicon Valley finally going remote. The irony of an industry built on open source work that was done 99% "remotely."

  First quarantine haircut. About two months overdue. Definitely turned out lopsided so I'm styling it like this instead. #selfie

  Social readers are a step up from traditional subscribe-only readers. Schema is fine for google indexing, but there's so much more that's possible!

  I think this is just familiarity. Everything you say here is exactly how I feel about Celsius.
  
  Also, if it’s as intuitive as you imply it should immediately catch on—I know no one who has to switch that finds it so intuitive.
  

  Nah I didn't say intuitive, I said expressive. It'd take more than 280 characters to explain what I mean. I don't think either is ideal though.
