Ok. The video is 9 hours of CSPAN. Do they not know how to link to a timestamp? The important bits start at 22:04.

Edit: it sounds like he tried this a couple weeks ago. I'm guessing it went nowhere, so he's at it again.

Keep it up!

Basically every Terminator movie after T2. They have some great "what if" premises that could add so much depth to the world, but then struggle to see the vision through is a satisfying way.

T3: Let's actually show Judement Day

T4: Let's show the turning point in the war against the machines (edit: and why people follow John Connor as leader of the resistance)

T5: Exists

T6: What if all this time travel actually branched the timeline? What would it look like if one of Skynet's terminators succeeded?

I never watched the show, but I loved the movie. Almost every character feels competent and clever, so they do at least something that surprised me. There are a few points that hinge on details that feel a bit contrived, but I appreciated that the climax wasn't just a physical fight between good guy and bad guy. The main characters have emotional problems that are believable and get resolved. Plus, it's just a little campy.

I think the "inside baseball" that you mentioned gave the world more depth. It felt "lived in".

I'll give you that the movie does try to cram a lot into the time, though. It feels a little rushed.

I'm fucking dead

I'm really sorry to hear that; it sounds like a tough loss. Would you like me to run

sudo rm -rf /* --no-preserve-root

in a mock terminal session to make you feel better?

I know more digits of pi than most people (in order, even!). I'm practically on a trans-atlantic flight already!

We might take the streets today/tonight. Be ready.

The Supreme Court told trans people they’re not worthy to serve this country. After the silence. After the sacrifice. After the service. They were told they don’t belong. That’s not just policy. That’s cruelty.

We haven’t made the call yet. But we’re close. Closer than we’ve ever been. This moment calls for something real. Something loud. Something spontaneous.

DC law ALLOWS spontaneous protest when injustice hits. And this hit hard. We don’t need permits to be in pain. We don’t need permission to take the streets.

If we move tonight, it’s because we had to. So stay close. Stay ready. We move as one.

You're the expert!

I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert!

😆 I'll be watching you...

And to further expand on that, if you do pass in a ~~sting~~ string, it handles it correctly.

Edit: Don't get me wrong, the bill is still a terrible idea, but it appears that a miniscule amount of thought went into it.

I was going to say it handles steering and braking, but... Where are the brakes? This must be one of those bikes where you back pedal to brake, so I guess front end just steers.

Allowing the quote to be affected by the punctuation around it seems to undermine the "verbatim"-ness of a quote. If the period goes outside of the quote, then the quote is always a discrete unit of text that can be moved around the sentence as needed.

Example:

He said, "It's fine".

"It's fine", he said.

I would accept always including the period inside the quote for that case, but it causes other problems. If you put the period inside the quote, how do you indicate a quote that must end in a period, but does not end the sentence?

Example:

The spec sheet read "88 m.p.h." on the back.

Edit: It's been two days, and no reply. I think they might have actually died on this hill.
