The Great Male Renunciation is the historical phenomenon at the end of the 18th century in which wealthy men of the Western world stopped using bright colours, elaborate shapes and variety in their dress, which were left to women's clothing.
Yeah, reading through some of the threads, seems like they didn't support a flag, failed silently, and had no test coverage for that (they do now). Non-LTS version or no, having these tools "in production" seems premature on Canonical's part.
They could have just pushed them into the ocean instead of changing a flat tire because it's faster, or some shit. It's like the Adeptus Administratum.
I think it's possible that Robert Trump, Donald Trump's younger brother, was an early victim of COVID. He died suddenly and was "very ill" but no specific cause was ever mentioned AFAIK. I think this was covered up because it was politically inconvenient for his brother.
I have nothing to really base it on except the timing and reaction was suspect.
Every town around me have installed these fucking things, covering every major route. In order to get out of my local area without being tracked I have to drive on some serious hillbilly roads. It's exhausting.
According to Mr. Thornebrooke, reporters are not permitted to review final versions of articles before they are published, contrary to standard practice in most newsrooms. In many instances, he said, top-ranking editors “would suddenly be taking accurate information out of my stories and putting in false info.”
My guy, you work the Falun Fucking Gong newspaper.
Huh, found a source from 1683 where a guy named Edward Tyson presented his research on the worm to the Royal Society, and he called it the "joynted worm". He also refers to it by its Latin name Lumbricus latus which AFAIK just means "flat worm", and Lumbricus teres Intestinalis which I'm guessing means "round worm of the intestine".
This is actually a great paper because he's arguing against spontaneous generation of insects from rotting meat by pointing out that these worms are only found within the bodies of living animals and therefore must be the product of these animals eating eggs or body segments of the worm.
The first Underworld from 2003 is like this, but it's painfully early 2000s. It's from that era when every action movie was ripping of The Matrix as hard as possible.
One time I worked on something where a character threw a spear. For some reason they didn't have a spear on set and asked the actor to just pretend. Then our instructions from the director were to make the actor twirl the spear before he threw it. Just because it looks super cool to twirl stuff, I guess.
Not only did the actor not pretend to twirl it, the shot was about 30 frames long (one second is 24 frames). So we had like 15 frames to make him twirl this giant spear, which the actor didn't do. It was either make it look like dog shit or make a full, hero digital double and completely re-do the shot as 100% CGI, which there wasn't time or budget for.
Yeah, it looked like dog shit. The whole project did.
I'm not a huge traveler, but I've been to the UK and parts of Europe. The Czech Republic was my favorite place, of the places I've been. Ironically never been to Canada, despite having some extended family there. I would love to go, and I love being in foreign places, but I hate getting there. Travel is awful, especially now.
I've lived in both urban and rural areas, and the fear is constant everywhere among people who have never traveled. Urban people are afraid that everyone in the country is a Deliverance KKK member, and rural people think the cities are a gang-infested war zone. What's wild is that, unlike visiting other countries, they could just hop in the car and visit the city or countryside for a weekend. They are consuming lazy media tropes and taking them as fact.
Traveling, even just regional travel, would benefit a lot of people in the USA. We have way more in common with each other than with the oligarchs.
Watching videos has been broken for a few weeks. On the 24th of Sep they mentioned that they'd identified a potential cause, but since then there haven't been any updates. They typically aren't super communicative and tend to lock down posts because of the huge surge of duplicate bug reports and unhelpful comments they get whenever this happens. So the silence is not that unusual, but it has been slightly longer than usual for an update.
2004 would be a bit late but it kind of reminds me of MPlayer.com. Here's a video. The interface kind of looked like a radio, it also featured the first voice-chat I ever used, but everyone was on modem so it was unusably terrible.
