I have a trap with one way gates that I put out if I see a roach. Just bait it and wait for the bug(s) to walk in. Then wait a few more days for them to die from dehydration.

I thought this would be the explanation (maybe it was, I didn’t read that closely). “It turns out I’ve been eating foods with ingredients from GMOs for years, they must be safe!”

The original versions are in the show’s “Trailers and More” section.

I’m an old-school remote juggler and I have an old Fire stick without a voice remote so I can only talk to it through the app on my phone, which I rarely do. It definitely searches the major apps like Netflix and HBO, but whether it’s able to then launch directly into the thing you searched for is probably…

Voice search is already possible on the latest versions of the Fire TV and Stick. It searches all apps that have their content metadata entered into Amazon’s catalog.

In animation and CGI, there’s a phenomenon called the “Uncanny Valley” which describes how people are OK with watching cartoon characters, and also with “actually looks real” characters, but a “not cartoony but still fake-looking” character will make them a bit uncomfortable.

I can’t find the blog post or whatever that clued me in to it, so I won’t swear to it, but if you look at them you can see how most of the major elements like walls and the patio backdrop that shape the layout are in the same place.

Star Trek II and III, actually.

My favorite Frasier / Star Trek crossover is the fact that Frasier’s apartment and Captain Kirk’s in Star Trek III are the same set.

On it’s own, the question “Who is the woman backstage at the Tonys?” is pretty harmless, but mildly insulting if said woman is someone you’ve met multiple times. But adding on that Gideon “remarked that she says ‘like’ and ‘oh my god’ a lot.” tilts it toward “Why is she there? She’s not a good backstage host and she’s…

Before the 7th, two Arizona batters had been hit by pitches, including in the bottom of the 6th, so the Pirate who got hit probably seemed like an intentional revenge plunk. It could very well have been, given the circumstances. But turning it right around and hitting the Diamondback’s leadoff hitter is the most…

You and StillDrunk probably both know that hit batters automatically get first base, but StillDrunk’s post was a little ambiguous so I put that in just in case.

Hit batters get to take first base as if they had been walked. The article assumes that you know who plays for each team or are willing to do a lot of deciphering based on context. Some facts also just seem wrong, like the total number of HBPs.

Without review of the source there’s no way to know if the hash is actually for an image that other people should not be allowed to post. Maybe they should trust most users to make their own hashes and review ones from people who misuse the process but I’m on the fence here.

More than twice as big as my entire house.

My house was built with 4-pin fluorescents in the recessed lighting and I also got annoyed with how often they died. I figured one or more of the ballasts was bad. Rather than horse around with diagnosing and replacing them I decided to bypass the ballasts, plugged in E26 socket adapters, and switched to LEDs.

I stocked up on 40 and 60 watters exclusively for my lamps connected to dimmers. They last a long time since I rarely run them at full wattage. Every where else I’ve got fluorescents and LEDs.

A lot more than a few feet. The Big Island has grown around 20 acres a year since 1983, and I’d figure big eruptions like this will add quite a bit more than that.

Yes, every Senate seat is absolutely crucial, especially the fiftieth (for Republicans to confirm Trump nominees), and fifty-first (to elect the Majority Leader). It becomes even more important if Democrats get a majority in the House.

Eureka is on Amazon Prime! Thank you so much, I had just started watching it on Netflix when it got pulled a few years ago.
