It doesn't matter almost at all which instance a community is on. People could just unite the different scuba groups into one. Basically any they see fit. I'm not sure the decentralization really causes this effect. Or does it make it too difficult to find communities? I've been plenty able to find communities from various instances, at least.

It might be that's because I went to India by hitchhiking, and did that through South-East Asia, and that took quite a bit of time 🙂 My body had plenty of time to incrementally adjust to the climate as I was making my way southwards. I'm guessing that you mostly spend your time in spaces with AC and your body never gets acclimated to the 40°C temperatures? Or maybe those temperatures take place so seldom where you live that you've has no chance to adapt? I'm not really used to AC, so I keep it off if possible even where it's available.

Anyways, if you look at videos of everyday life of locals in Goa, they aren't really constantly dripping sweat. At least I don't have any memory of having sweated very much during my time in Laos, Thailand, Burma and India. Even if there was some level of constant sweating, it absolutely hasn't been enough to disturbing in smell or visually, because otherwise I'd have a memory of it.

Nah, I don't have anything like that against US. But out in the rest of the world it just makes sense to use standard units. Live the way you live in the US, but when you come elsewhere, including the parts of Internet not meant for US inhabitants only, do in Rome as Romans do.

Then what does the bike have to do with it? (Also, how hot is a 103 day?)

Why would a person ride their bike so fast that they end up dripping in sweat? Is there a reason for that?

Some earlier GTA could be better for this. I tried driving around for the scenery, but there was so much random violence happening around that my kid got scared. I did manage to explain everything upside down in the end, so no harm done, but it did not feel nice.

GTA3:SA still wouldn't have had that effect, I think(?)

Depends on what's meant here with "GTA". GTA 1 was not really that bad. There's shooting, which is not cool, but it's not very graphic.

Then there's GTA2 where you collect people from the street and turn them into kebab meat with a lot of screaming. And, starting from GTA3, the games start getting seriously.bad fir children.

But, the meme might mean GTA1 or GTA2.

This, of course, doesn't mean that GTA is good for kids. It just means that something else is even worse.
