    sorry, did middle schoolers get taught the earth spins twice a day? 3 times? 17 times? or maybe they get taught that the time taken for it to spin once is actually called the sidereal day and not the synodic day?

    if you want to measure how fast things spin, use angular velocity. your car engine goes at several thousand rpm, not several thousand kilometers per hour. if you were standing at the poles, you would have zero linear velocity. does this mean the earth doesn’t spin?

    ok maybe you were talking about the time the earth takes to go around the sun. yes that takes a year.












  • i use trime on android and the default takes quite a while to get used to. for example, the symbol key that is usually on the bottom left corner is now a language switching key and the symbol key is one tiny key beside it. custom configuration seems like a pain and i haven’t done it. one of the defaults however comes with a menu that lets you type all sorts of symbols including greek, russian, japanese, IPA and mathematical operators. haven’t sen fcitx5 for android though

    edit: currently using fcitx5 android and i can say just go with this. everything comes right out of the box (no screwing around with config files) and has all the features trime has and more (i can even type unicode! ☻). only feature i would miss is that trime types both round brackets at once and places your cursor in the middle whereas fcitx5 android needs you to type them individually.
