What’s wrong with calling people Darth? It’s like addressing someone as “Captain” or “Doctor”.

Trying to claim the term “Web3” is a futile battle. It is already widely understood to mean crypto and blockchain. If I see a job posting that says the company is built on Web3, I know immediately that the job is built on scams and grifts without having to ask further questions. Web3 as a term is ruined already.

For this to work it must be a different term than Web3. Maybe “Web 3.0” is different enough?

If I remember correctly I think this was made after he’d been cast as the Doctor but before his episodes started airing, which means it pretty much had to be an intentional joke to cast him this way.

The main problem with the series is trying to stretch a concept that works in 4 panel comics into a half hour sitcom. You think the solution would be to make it LONGER?

Ironically, the text on this meme is so small that I had to zoom in on it on my vertical phone to be able to read it

There are a lot of valid reasons not to do a screw in plug, but hoses solved this problem decades ago. The tip turns, the cord doesn’t

They should also warn of scammers posing as crypto devs to steal your actual money

Actors are not expected to be knowledgeable about weapons. If they are required to check their own weapons, they would not do so competently, and may come to incorrect conclusions. This could add incompetent confusion about the weapon safety to the situation, and that’s bad for safety.

Bonus, let’s nix the football team too. We don’t need the traumatic brain injuries.

Some of it can be done during study hall, while kids are doing their work.
