Indeed: eyewitness accounts are notoriously inaccurate, whereas video can be replayed.

I think that _the same weekend it opens_ is not in the span that most would consider "spoiler free". If the movie has been out for a month, maybe.

Yesterday was his birthday, and the Google Doodle was about him. That probably had a big effect on the article's ranking, as I know I and many others clicked it and read more about him.

I'd be surprised if they didn't recharge it by pedaling. ;)

Additionally, if you're especially anxious to be introduced to an assembly-themed CTF, you can also go look at Microcorruption. I would wager that Thomas and Erin's current project is "better", but Microcorruption still

I confess that I would love to see Patrick's usual writing style and ability applied to almost anything. I'm not sure why, but he just seems to be really ... genuine? Personable? It's like I'm listening to a friend talk

Warhammer 40k lore is AMAZING. I love all of the stories I've read in it. Not only is the backstory cool science fiction, but the "current" period reads like a futuristic mixture of the pre-Enlightenment dark ages, and the Ru

I think she's entirely correct. I consider "defensive driving" not to be about expecting horrible things, but rather thinking about (and taking action to mitigate) unsafe events. I explicitly distrust other drivers, more tha

Totally off-topic, but what did you use to make the charts for your productivity-per-hour, and how did you track productivity? I use a time-tracking app (Toggl), but it's not easy to determine the difference between an hour when I&#x27

I think the word you're looking for is "vendetta", or "revenge", and generally isn't considered a valid legal defense for violence. If I find out that someone punched my kid, I'm not allowed to drive to th

The point is, Maria and Gordon __have__ been with the show for decades, and now their characters have kids. Similarly, some of the kids in earlier years still are involved as older kids. It's one thing I have really liked about the sh

Wild Kratts (and their earlier show, Zaboomafoo?) are on Netflix, too. Prepare for kids dj-ing to their favorite episodes.

Netflix has amazing stuff for kids as well: Bill Nye, Magic Schoolbus, to name a few.

All of the things you say are true, and I also agree on the "self-inflicted" delays a sibling poster mentions. All of these mattered very little to me when I went to reinstall a game I hadn't played in two years, after a move

How do your cats maintain clean teeth when on solely wet food? I had thought the kibble helped with that, but that may have been more because of my prior cat's allergies than the food itself.

It probably doesn't -- there's likely an API that the app calls, and that one could, with time, mimic it. That would also require the intersection of people with the tools, cats, and inclination.

I would love a "Trust me, I know what I'm doing. Give me a text box to paste Markdown into..." option for Confluence and Jira.

The biggest difference I see is that Bitbucket's diff view is a tree of changed files, rather than a unified diff. There are things I like about both -- I like that I can get an overview of what changed in Bitbucket, and have a better

> I have provided them with more than enough information to prove all of my income is legitimate That seems like a roundabout way of saying, "No, I did not conduct any illegal transactions".

That might work for small groups. I've been at multiple dinners for 8+ people where, after we'd all "put in our share", the pot was still $50 (or more!) shy of the bill + tip. It's frustrating even as the non-host,

Our local astronomy club just gave out red celophane plastic bags. You could probably use a sheet of that (which looks to be about $15 for a package that you could cut yourself?), and keep it on your nightstand. I know it's neither as

That's an interesting synergy, I think you're right. I think it explains a lot about why I do not do well at SC: I am poor at most of those other games, so a union of those seems especially daunting.

It seems a pretty obvious portmanteau of magic + git. I always said it with a different rhythm: "ma-git" rather than "mag-it", so that might also be a factor.

Sir Terry Pratchett decided that he'd rather die while able to make the decision, rather than letting his mind be destroyed by Alzheimer's. (Granted, his passing was natural, but he campaigned eloquently for the right to make suc

There are lists of episodes that hit the "classic" ones, but the original series was remarkably suitable to binge-watching on Netflix, partly because there were few seasons. Many of the episodes are retellings of classic tales, s

"in 2013": It might be an outlier. We had an abnormally large group of terrorism-related deaths in 2001, but on average it's less, and the same type of thing may be in effect here. That year may have been bad for deaths by p

It sounds like archivists could image the disks and transport those across mediums, in the interest of archival, as long as they didn't distribute them, though. Am I mistaken?

I wonder if you could sell your car to the inspector, let them inspect it, and then buy it back.
