If you watch the more recent footage you can clearly see most of the plane slowly cartwheeling through the sky into the water. It was still mostly a plane.

I was not prepared for boob wings this early in the day.

In the Overton Window that is US politics, it is. But that’s because the damn window has been dragged so far to the right that facts themselves are “Liberal Marxism” now (oxymoronic as that label is).

Edit: And MBFC perpetuates that rightward movement. I prefer Ad Fontes, although it does also label CNN as center-left.

He wouldn’t have died had he worn the “damn collar” as he called it. The HANS device likely would’ve saved his life, as I understand it, but he was too “old school” for driver safety. 🙄

Yeah, I do wish they hadn’t killed the pressure button. But I tend to swipe anyway.

I jumped from the Voyage to the Paperwhite when they switched to USB-C and added a warmth slider for the screen. It’s really nice, especially with an origami case (even if that case isn’t as nice as the origami case for the Voyage).

Is that really part of Star Trek lore? Because…that’s terrifying if so.

Whatever happened to Ameristralia? Wasn’t that a thing back on The Old Site for a while?

That means the perfect resolution for TVs is actually QHD.

And yet QHD would be comparatively awful for modern content. 720p scales nicely to QHD, but 1080p does not. I suspect that’s why 4K has been the winner on the TV front, it scales beautifully with both 1080p (4:1) and 720p (9:1) content.

That graph is fascinating, thank you!

May I suggest:

Doc took one look at my arteries and started to cry
Them surgery boys pumped propofol now I’m high
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die…

Yes, their father is Al Reddy Tutcher

Storms I hope that’s true.

It’s been a long day without you my friend…

I despise commercials generally. But the Super Bowl is when marketers used to bring their A-game, with a very different feel from usual ads.

Now they just bring A-listers instead, put them on the screen and say, “Look who we hired! Now buy our product.”

I am all Ken M on this blessed day.

Beautiful.

Sure!

“If I’m asked, I’ll give grammar tips to whomever.”

Whomever is tough, because often this would be constructed as “I’ll give grammar tips to whoever asks.” And you would use “who” there, because “whoever” is the subject of the clause “whoever asks.”

Generally speaking, it’s usually safe to pick “whoever” over “whomever.”

But if you drop the “-ever” it’s a lot easier. Anywhere you’d use “him” (that is, the objective pronoun), you use “whom.” To whom, for whom, by whom, etc.

Just to be pedantic, you should use “whoever” there, not “whomever.”

To tell whether to use “who” or “whom,” replace it with “he” or “him” and follow the ‘m.’

“he made this” vs “him made this”

Most well-known to me would be Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a Lutheran theologian who was quite vocal about his opposition to the Nazi regime and eventually participated in plans to assassinate Hitler.

This explains why Musk cut the funding for Lutheran charities.
