Shoot, this glitch trick would have been incredibly useful for verifying the effectiveness of my rad hardness testing benchmarks back in college.

As I like to say, the only content was in the prompt. Embellishment is just wasting your reader’s time.

My graying began with a Rogue streak, followed by Reed Richard temples. In the end, I won’t have gone fully gray so much as collected the entire Marvel gray pattern set.

Are we only protected from this normally by the tacit threat of vehicular assault?

I was reading about a woman who was trapped by two assholes who stepped in front of her Waymo to harass her, and it led me to lots of contemplation about the dynamics of why they don’t do this with regular cars, and what a person would normally do if they did.

We're rewatching the old 1964 Addams Family, and it's actually... better than I remember? I don't know how this show even got made in the mid-sixties.

It could be they just wanted someone with a deeper, bigger voice. When Cassidy passed away partway through the show's run, they replaced him with Charles Napier. Even he didn't have a voice as deep and booming as Cassidy's, though.

I'm not actually sure why they didn't have Lou Ferrigno do the growls. Sure, he was hard of hearing and had a speech impediment, but he was totally capable of doing voice work. He even did the voice for the Hulk in The Incredible Hulk (2008).

Fun trivia: All of the growly vocalizations of the Incredible Hulk (1977) were done by the mighty Ted Cassidy, who was Lurch in The Addams Family (1964). He was also the opening narrator.

As someone who uses the mouse with my left-hand, I find right-hand mouse cursors disorienting.

A mouse cursor from the game "Opus Magnum." It is a gold-colored skeuomorphic right-hand, pointing to the upper left.
