We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

I hate the fact that ASUS and other router manufacturers don't make most of their routers wall mountable. (It's literally placing two screw holes in the underside of the router, guys.) I love the fact that the 3D printing community usually will make up for it with brackets that they made available.

Like, this is an area about TWO PERCENT of the total scene. By my count, there's around 10 stars local to the Milky Way in this view. EVERYTHING ELSE IS A GALAXY

I strongly believe documentaries should present archival news reports, newsreels, and any other found footage in their original aspect ratios. Stop cropping!

The only way I will have any interest in this is if they start the film with Finn waking up, having dreamt the entirety of Rise of Skywalker, and picking back up at the end of The Last Jedi. At breakfast, he laughs with Poe & Rey about the silly dream logic of the Emperor returning somehow.

I don't know why my brain decided to try this but I'm so glad that it did. xearth was my default background back in my Sun Microsystems days. Just for funsies, I compiled it on Linux Mint from the almost 30-year-old source code, and it still freaking works.
