The CW folks would presumably be sending QTH instead

I wonder if this graph captures that/if it would make an appreciable difference?

I just wish they made toddler clothes in my size.

Grass is ugly no matter the state it is in

I think bamboo can be pretty though 🤷

Do you still start in 1st? Do you skip gears?

Left pedal looks more like a dead pedal to me.

And as others have said, change in direction is still acceleration. That's part of Newton's (apocryphal?) apple story

he witnessed an apple falling, and wondered why the moon doesn't also fall. His amazing insight is that it does fall (accelerate), it's just that it falls in such a way that it orbits, rather than hits, the Earth (for timescales relevant to a human).

"Political choice is between a turd sandwich and a giant douche" being my favorite example.

Neither candidate is/was ideal, but good lord to say that what's happening now is no different than when the other side was in power is beyond asinine, it's an incredibly disingenuous and offensive take on reality. (I know the SP episode wasn't about the current US political situation, but the current US political situation absolutely has its roots going back to those SP episodes.)

Most of the time that leads to them dying.

Well, squishing has a 100% chance of them dying. With a toddler and a baby, having them run loose sadly isn't an option.

We live in a very mild climate, and there's under-deck and fence space around our house, in addition to bushes, trees, and underbrush

fairly suitable for a variety of arachnids. It's not the same as indoors, and survival rate certainly isn't 100%, but it's not the death sentence of going from a climate controlled house to below-freezing outdoors.

Because I can trap mine in a jar and take it outside instead.

I think large planes "look" like they can't work because their "relative speed" is really low

that is, their speed relative to their length. We're used to seeing birds cover tens of lengths per second, whereas a large airliner covers ~1ish per second at takeoff.

Or not, but this always seemed like a plausible explanation as to why planes look impossible. (Though given that hovering birds don't look funny, maybe this is a silly observation...).

I'd say it gets a little different with command line utilities

maybe "utility" is the appropriate term here, but I'd call something like grep a program, not an application (again

"utility" also works).

To be sure, grep is extremely powerful, but its scope is limited.

I just tried that and got the same result. It's from a site that just quotes a snippet of an Onion article 🤦

Similar with Y2K

it was only a nothingburger because it was taken seriously, and funded well. But the narrative is sometimes, "yeah lol it was a dud."
