There are some articles about his death linked on Wikipedia but they’re pretty just-the-facts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Kyanka

They certainly used to. The quality has started going downhill, unfortunately. I was going to buy a new one (I had a Mission and wanted to upgrade) but the new ones weren’t as good and more expensive.

I can fit so many groceries on it!

I got a used RadCity 3 last month and really like it. I’m biking more and driving less for errands and commuting.

Yeah, she still seems like a terrible person but probably the least terrible of this whole crew. Certainly less terrible than SBF.

The Kindle app for Android has an option for continuous scroll instead of page turn.

That’s why the term “misogynoir” exists. It’s both, and they pile on and increase each other.

Exactly. She’s using straight needles (with a knob on one end) instead of double-pointed needles. DPNs are also straight I guess! But “straight needles” specifically means the ones with one point and a knob.

There was a bizarre movement in the Victorian era to get people to knit with their needles held with tips pointed down because it’s “more ladylike” but it’s also very difficult and irritating to knit that way so it didn’t catch on.

I don’t think there’s any way to knit a tubular sock on straight needles; the geometry doesn’t allow it. You can knit a sock flat and then sew it up into a tube, but it would look different from the comic.

Edit: actually now that I’ve thought about it more, I think there is a way but it would be super annoying (slip every other stitch so you’re knitting the back and front of the tube at the same time, that might work…). Basically the equivalent of writing a letter by writing every other word and then going back to fill in the rest. Possible, but no reason to do it.

That’s called ‘frogging’ (because you rip-it, rip-it), and you don’t use needles to do it.

Artists. I beg you. Do any research into what knitting looks like before drawing someone knitting.

In their 90s? Gimme some bread and dancing then!

I thought it meant that all the icons/interfaces for AI seem to have a graphical gradient between colors, usually cool colors like blue/purple/pink. (Like the face in the meme)

I recall they lowered guys out of a helicopter on ropes one year, too. It was hilarious to walk around the floor at E3 and see CoD or whatever guys in their fakey-looking booth bro costumes pass real army guys wearing real uniforms passing out enlistment info and ads for America’s Army. Why pay booth bros when you can just assign some soldiers you’re already paying?

This, but I use washi tape because it is less gunky.

Same!

Patriarchy oppresses us all.
