Pretty sure I had one of those JVC units. Pure nostalgia injection.

What's My JND? 0.0049
Can you beat it? www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd...

JND is the "Just Noticeable Difference". Click on the line separating the two colors. I would think this is highly dependent on the quality of your monitor to begin with.

Alec, I take it all back. That was incredible and completely justified. Thank you for using your voice to speak the truth.

A Conversation with Former NFL Pro Chris Kluwe and Sci-Fi Author John Scalzi YouTube video by Ann Arbor District Library

Hey there, Bluesky. If you want to see the conversation I and @chriswarcraft.bsky.social had last night at the Ann Arbor library, here it is. We talk about writing, libraries, politics and lots of other things. Conversation starts around 8:50 and runs for an hour.

Gregory Bovino Gets Demoted The Border Patrol chief was the public face of a traveling immigration crackdown on cities governed by Democrats.

The piano backing is directly evocative of Mister Rogers. Every episode was performed live, so no two versions of "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" were exactly the same.

Makes me wonder if this guy has a live musician helping with production or if it's computer generated at this point.

A picture of the doors at the Detroit airport where someone drove a car through them and into the airport. It shows bollards completely uprooted from the pavement.

To Eric’s point, here is a picture of the damage at DTW showing clearly that the bollards are merely decorative.

Car crashes through Detroit Metro Airport's McNamara Terminal A vehicle drove through the entrance to Detroit Metro Airport’s McNamara Terminal on Friday, Jan. 23 and hit a ticket counter.

I've seen people making jokes and questioning the identity/motivation of the driver, but the REAL problem with the car crash into DTW airport yesterday is how the "bollards" to protect people are apparently just thin upside down trash cans screwed into the sidewalk.

I'm afraid there's a significant portion of your intended audience that will turn their brains off and dismiss anything after a mention of any political party. It might be more effective to call out the kinds of rhetoric they should be wary of rather than the speakers, and hope they connect the dots
