The thing about the Marvel Cinematic Universe is they already had a massive comic book universe to build from with thousands of stories and characters, and that excludes the ones they already licensed out. Only other IP that can match that catalog is DC, and they keep retreating back to Batman and Superman. Building a cinematic universe from a single character or premise requires way more planning and preparation than studios are willing to spend on.

The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window. We turned it on in the afternoon to check out the first episode and wound up watching the whole thing that day. Only series we didn’t split out over days. It kept us enthralled because we started the show wondering “Wtf is this show?” and never got an answer. It’s not for everyone.

I’m not trusting a tattoo parlor that spells it “tatoos”.

It’s got electrolytes.

Even without Face ID, the notch houses more than just the camera. "David Pogue posted an image on Twitter, which seems to be the new MacBook Pro's camera module. In that, we see a 1080p camera, TrueTone sensor, ambient light sensor, and a camera status LED." https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-MacBook-Pro-s-notch-houses-more-than-just-a-1080p-camera.574456.0.html

Given that, I don’t see how they lose the notch without losing everything but the camera. Tone and light sensors need some distance from the illuminated display, and the status LED is wired to the camera power to show you definitively when the camera is powered on. That LED has to stand out at any time.

End of the line. Look at the track.

The real flaw of the M4 Mac Mini power button is that it still needs a power button. There’s no battery or built-in display to merit shutdown, yet it can’t operate like an Apple TV.

Should we be listening to suggestions from mutant frogs? Seems like a trap.

No, it applies to Americans voting in the territory’s election. Americans from States can vote absentee on their States’ ballots while living in U.S. Territories. A sailor from a State deployed to Guam can vote in the election of their State. But anyone voting in Guam’s election doesn’t have an option to vote for president.

That reporting. Imagine her quote was an answer to a yes/no question. “imagine being and artist and having nearly 8 million monthly listeners on spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet. don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

The reporting doesn’t match her statement.

It’s worth noting that Allen doesn’t actually claim she earns more money from OnlyFans than Spotify. “imagine being and artist and having nearly 8 million monthly listeners on spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet. don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

 

For my first post, I’m sharing this utility shortcut that lets me build shortcuts that can run on all my Apple devices but vibrate only when run on iPhone. I find it most useful for my HomeKit shortcuts. It also has an option for multiple vibrations.
