Can you share some examples of what you're describing. I enjoy blogs, have one of my own that I haven't added to in quite a while. I don't feel under any pressure, for many of the reasons stated in TFA, to update it regularly

I discovered Rosey via the wonderful "Free to be You and Me" TV special developed by Marlo Thomas. He sings "It's Alright to Cry". Hearing this song, in the mid-1970's, as an 8 yr old boy who never fit in with

There's a documentary that gives the lie to the rumor that Kubrick was abusive to SD. I believe that she recalls fondly that the project was challenging but ultimately rewarding.

"Beginner" is a broad term which adds to the confusion. I program as a hobby without any formal training. Despite doing it on and off for a few decades, I still consider myself an 'advanced beginner' for those reasons. S

"Ordinary People" is an incredible film, with top-notch performances by DS, Mary Tyler Moore, Judd Hirsch, and a young Timothy Sutton. Highly recommend. RIP Donald Sutherland.

You're making a category error. Biden is the incumbent. The Party always runs the incumbent. Is that how it should be? We can debate that, but that's how it is.

I've listened to the clips and yes, while 4o Sky is more emotive, it's just that - a more emotive Sky. All the elements that people are pointing to - the husky/raspiness - were present in the pre-4o Sky.
