Wind turbines also.

But some solar does focus it on a tower to make steam to drive a turbine.

I’m talking long before digital channels existed. (In the US anyway)

Even before the 2000s they started showing a blue screen instead of static.

That wasn’t just a digital or flat panel thing.

But of course old sets were around for a long time.

One of my friends in middle school had the last name Morris, so I think of it as a last name.

Hamilton is a last name. I won’t doubt that there are some people who have it first (not checking), but they probably have two last names.

My immediate reaction before opening the link: “No.”

Yet I somehow got 96.6% twice.

Visually, I certainly wouldn’t call them 3.4% away from perfect. I’m guessing there’s some allowance for imperfection even at 100%.

She knows him that well.

Look up “bimonthly pay”.

Fortnightly is fine, so is biennial.

All of the other bi-timeperiod words are worthless because they mean both twice each time and every two times.

Biweekly and bimonthly each also meaning their respective reciprocals.

(Every two periods, or twice a period.)

If a technical term such as a frequency specifier has multiple incompatible meanings then it has no value and needs to stop being used entirely. Or one of the meanings chosen as correct and the others rejected forcefully (good luck with that)

If the only piece of advice on how to live you get from a religion is “Stay alive as long as you can!” That’s still better than a lot of the rest of them.

The implied part is ‘rich’. It isn’t a guarantee.

There’s also a restaurant chain which is also named Dick’s

The “Eat some Dick’s” jokes write themselves.

In the US, “estates” sounds vaguely wealthy. For example, a fancy garage sale is an Estate Sale (which kinda implies a rich person died and this is their estate being liquidated.)

Why’d you have to call me out like that with those first three?

(Seriously, not keeping stuff is so difficult. It’s a strain on my marriage and I wish I could just flip a switch and not feel that instinct)

And be Peter Greene as Dorian Tyrell

On a large enough clock, the hour hand could have easily visible marks for not just minutes, but also seconds. If I were an architect or whatever I would try to make that the floor of a lobby or something.

What is this, a magnification for ants?

I’m surprised it’s not by Eiffel.
