My Cadillac has a video display as a rear view mirror and it has that issue. With a traditional rear view mirror your focal length doesn't change much, but in my car your focus has to shift to the mirror 2 feet away.

It has upsides though, as passengers or objects in the rear seat don't affect your mirror view.

Whenever I change vehicles it takes a few minutes to readjust.

I couldn't find an image but there's an old Far Side cartoon that shows a building that's something like "Jake's Croissants and Fill Dirt". Reminds me of that.

Covering the noise is covering the running water. Covering the running water creates a dam. Creating a dam creates a pond. Creating a pond provides them with a nice controlled environment in which to build a lodge with an underwater entrance for protection from predators.

Having cut my teeth on MS-DOS 3.0 in a 4.77MHz PC with a monochrome monitor, two floppy drives and no hard disk, it was drilled into me early to save, save, save. It's just muscle memory for me now.

Writing a whole paper without saving is unimaginable to me.

OJ Simpson was found not guilty criminally and guilty civilly. It's a thing.

Technically I believe it's called an "Sovereign Citizen Incantation". You can purchase books of them online for a few hundred dollars.

At its height Nguyen was making $50,000.00 a day from ads in the game. Whew.
