Radiohead are notorious plagiarists (it's absolutely true because I read it in the Daily Mail).

Wow, that's even more impressive then - they added a defect and a different problem occurred and it still landed. I caught some of the stream and heard the SpaceX audience's reaction to that fin burning away - I thought they sounded more excited than worried.

The TypeScript source code is available from that same GitHub account:

I know they purposely left off some heat tiles to test that eventuality - was the flap where they did that? I guess so, given the number of cameras pointing at it.

Ha, in my original reply I'd started to contrast my SSB accent with American - I wouldn't go as far as the final panel, although I feel I'd understand it easily enough.

Also, even in SSB (as opposed to the more London Estuary type English), we use glottal stops a lot more than over the pond: /h ɔ́ ʔ p ə t ɛ́j t əw/

You pronounce the t in hot and then pronounce the p of potato?

It was a choice of posting to there or here (I assume most people who are in one are also in the other).

I imagine they're fairly dialect-dependant as well, at least at times.

VFX artist explains why CGI in films is worse now

Article includes screenshot from The Mummy Returns which is from 2001 and is therefore old enough to watch any of the other films mentioned.

One place I worked had a small park, so sometimes I'd go for a lap or two to think something through - the fresh air, mild exercise, change of scenery and lack of distractions wroked wonders.

@Yondoza@sh.itjust.works this is good advice

I don't know either - it could be purposely wrong to indicate that the figures aren't included, or to get attention via the mistake/meme. Or just that lots of people are fuzzy on the many Star * IPs.

I'd assumed it was servers running on renewable power, although I'm not sure how they measure that. I know some hosting companies and CDNs have that as an option, but I don't see how you'd know if each server chose that option so I guess it's more like "servers with green hosting companies".

Don't downvote stuff just because you're not interested in it! There's no algorithm you're training, you're just being rude to people.

Downvotes should be for worthless content and people being dicks.

Plenty to read, thanks.

I see that first paper is for tropical environments, is this also found in other parts of the world?

There's some evidence that the bacteria in the air are different at day vs. at night

This is really interesting, do you have more info on this to share?

Or the same old quarry with a different gel over the lens.

"Real-life Star Wars tech" confused me, since it's a missile defense system IRL, but it's talking about:

The massive screens and virtual set technology pioneered on more modern shows like The Mandalorian.

“Yes, it grew increasingly difficult and frustrating to go out into the woods of British Columbia and pretend it was another planet”

I quite liked the feel of the series being in woods so much, and it made sense given that many of those "worlds" were pre-industrial (plus alien tech).

Nick's a magician, though, and he did all the usual magician tricks like signing the envelope. I suspect shenanigans, perhaps the crew being in on it.

Ah, so nothing to do with incels harassing women. Do incels have a queen?

Bravo! If this is a harbinger of the memes that we can expect from Davulcan Mitchell, then it's going to be good.
