Yes.
If you can survive the first seasons' 90's fashion choices it holds up really well.

A couple of years ago the university I work for did a story on the cats that live at the campus stadium and the people that take care of them.

Anytime I can't find my phone the first thing I do is check under the cat.

Ditto remotes and game controllers.

Anything getting more attention than her she likes to sit on.

If you haven't seen it yet check out "the movies that made us" on Netflix. They have a good behind the scenes show with interviews from the producers about the nutty story of how it came to be.

"some people want a wedding some want a marriage"

That being said depending on your culture and family wealth expensive weddings may be important for other reasons.

I listened to a podcast where they talked about one of the head producers originally being resistant to the change but they got some demo prop guns made that convinced them.

It allowed actors to stand closer in the 4:3 frame, use things one handed, and be more comfortable on a sling holster.

Wire it up to a universal remote that you will never lose!

I've heard rumors that there was supposed to be a Stargate command show that never came to be. I'm just happy that the new show will apparently be a continuation in the same universe vs a reboot.

We know there are other sg exploration/science/marine/etc teams let's explore that.

I'm with you. It suffered from too much pressure from studio execs wanting it to be Battlestar (which I love). New show is helmed by a lot of the same team that did Atlantis so I'm cautiously optimistic.

So many Olympic sports are impressive but I really want to know how someone first decides to do luge ski jump, or skeleton.

Good point. iirc there were some like the one in SC that was featured in the movie Glory (name escapes me at the moment) which were made out of timber. It would be interesting to see a modern study about which was better in terms of strength/resilience/shrapnel.

Somewhat related: In the US civil war there were several forts that used dirt or sand to cover the fortifications which allowed them to be easily rebuilt during pauses.

Seriously, You can be polite if you want, but just get to the point.

I also don't want you to ask how I'm doing or let me know that you hope I'm doing well when we already had a meeting an hour ago and socialize multiple times a week.

Just tell me what you need and let's move on.

Yeah there's some deep seated issues he hides behind the tough exterior. First thing we see is him drunk and flipping over a table because he doesn't like (jealous of?) Starbuck who has her own stuff going on.

Tigh needs adama to keep his inner compass pointed straight, otherwise he just spins out of control.

If you've never played and like single player games and story then start with 4. 76 is good and can be played single player like I do but it's better IMHO if you already know the lore or want to play with friends.

New Vegas and 3 are also good but dated.

Showing off. Same reason outside cats will bring dead mice and birds home.

I've got one that likes to do that with shoes and socks. If he can't get those he'll go with any clothing or random bits of trash he can find.

Stay in North Myrtle/Calabasas if you go. Cheaper, fewer crowds, and a quick Uber ride to Myrtle if you want to do touristy things.

Also really proud of their seafood and a bonkers amount of breakfast places.

Ces lacks focus on scalability and skew heavily towards early adopters that are willing to do their own trouble shooting for tech that may not be mature yet.

I don't know that it's frustration so much as expectations. And that's zoom/teams interoperability along with painless sharing from byod.

Ces has some benefits but lacks the connections to the companies engineering side you can get at something like infocomm which is what's key for our industry.

Could it have also been using exif? If not that is really impressive/scary.

First thing I did when I bought a house was use the telephone wire as pull cables for as much cat 6 as I could get into each room.

It's insane how much you can run over it with cheap connectors on either end.

If anyone is thinking about doing this get the 1000ft spools in different colors.

Ww2 in color on Netflix

And

Secrets of war on Amazon prime

If you want to feel like you are watching old history channel war docs. I'm still trying to find a good modern marvels replacement.

I also highly recommend from the earth to the moon on HBO and the Netflix apollo13 and columbia docs

So true. There are lots of events and places I could go through work and professional orgs I'm part of but the older I get the more selective I am even if someone else is paying.

People don't realize how much work conferences are if you're doing them right.
