I think it’s entirely possible the color difference is just film vs digital. Digital tends to lean toward over-saturation. Also the upper picture has a noticeably warmer color temp.

How have these things not encountered out-of-service stop lights before? This seems like the kind of thing you test before you let them around people.

Newegg is still a thing, you just need to check the “Sold by Newegg” filter.

That’s partially because early TNG scripts were adapted from unused TOS and Phase II scripts.

The tides are also likely responsible for advanced life on this planet. So there is that.

I keep my storage hard drive assigned to B so the optical drive is still D.

The articles I found specifically called out the obesity epidemic as being the issue. I strongly doubt that enough of the ~150 million bra wearers in this country are augmenting their breasts enough to adjust the median that far in just 20 years.

I would have guessed that 36B was also the median size in the US. Apparently it used to be 34B and is now 34DD because people are shockingly unhealthy.

I mean… Walgreens carries 40 Vol hair bleach. Typically that’s %12 peroxide. You can usually get industrial sizes locally too if you live in a larger city, people use it for retro-brighting.

Given what it would have taken to get a picture with lighting like that on film, I would guess this was a pre planned shoot that just happened have the towers as a back drop that day. Most of the footage we have of the first tower is from people who were doing other things with their cameras and camcorders at that time.

They are the only person in the office so they have at least earned “Self-Starter” too.

Caldera had a GUI installer in 1998…

My guess is the cameras use it to make sure the color plates are aligned properly. A lot of packaging printing still uses a 4 step printing with one plate for each color in CMYK.

lol, in this case ‘update’ would require physically replacing the ROM chip on the motherboard. Sometimes they were nice enough to make it a socketed chip.

I have a 486 with a mouse driven BIOS…

Edit: Here is a screenshot I found online that looks like the one I have (note the 1994 copyright at the top):

It takes the same effort to get an ID as a license. If I can’t afford one or don’t have the documentation then it’s the same problem.

Medan human walking speed is ~4 MPH* so, actually, yeah pretty much half of people aren’t going to be able to do 3 miles in 45 minutes right off the bat. That’s before we take into account crosswalks and other walking hazards and that obesity and sedentary lifestyles are on the rise.

* I was taught 5 MPH but I found multiple sources that listed 5, 4, and 3 MPH so yeah…

The writing has been on the wall for a while. I remember hearing quotes about wanting to turn Xbox into a Steam competitor back in like 2018. I was honestly surprised when they released the Series. I was pretty sure we would get some sort of streaming only console after the One X|S.

I imagine going forward, in addition to the streaming services, we are going to see Xbox leveraged as “certification” for other manufacturer’s hardware where consumers can be assured that this device meets some set spec for this year’s Xbox games.

The CBS/Paramount app has always had so much tracking in it that it’s blocked by most PiHole like devices and software. Even if you pay for the no ads tier they still won’t play the video if they can’t hit the ad server.

You can absolutely play Call of Duty on Linux… and Call of Duty 2!!!
