Wait a minute! Arizona has grape pie listed? I call the whole thing BS.
It's the tail.She's pretty hot, huh?
Nope.Drywall edges along the 8 foot factory edges have a taper. I honestly did not realize this until recently. Makes taping a bit easier if you have two factory edges against each other. This particular example shows a non tapered edge against the tapered edge to show the difference. To the naked eye it looks like one sheet isn't in all the way but level shows it's actually continuous. Plaster and paint will fix this.

Interesting. I've also heard that brontosaurus tastes best with a balsamic vinaigrette.Did you know you can turn the modem noise off?? I only learned about that THIS YEAR!

Also:
Many Japanese television broadcasters and medical officials (along with the United Kingdom's Independent Television Commission came together to find ways to make sure the incident was not repeated. They established a series of guidelines for future animated programs, including that flashing images, especially those with red, should not flicker faster than three times per second; if the image does not have red, it still should not flicker faster than five times per second; flashing images should not be displayed for a total duration of more than two seconds; and stripes, whirls and concentric circles should not take up a large part of the television screen.
The Harding test for content that now airs on Japanese TV and streaming sites ensures no more than one flashing light occurs every 10 frames, reproduced at 29.97 FPS, where "flashing lights" are classified as extreme changes in colors from one frame to the next. Footage may either clear or fail checks, or "pass with a warning" in which case the video's luminance is automatically adjusted to mitigate potential effects.
Yeah it's very soothing but can be very high pitched. Also, sometimes you can tell that it will connect at a lower speed due to some connection instability from the slightly different handshaking sounds it makes. I think the noise is only until the handshaking is complete. Once done, the modem speaker would automatically turn off. Sometimes, it was possible to pick up the phone in another room, hear the weird noises and not have the connection get disturbed. But that was rare I think. Raise your hands if you ever shouted in dismay at the top of your voice when a family member picked up the phone!I actually like to hear the modem sounds, so I know what's going on.
Woah! The flashing in that Wikipedia page video clip is disorienting even for someone who doesn't suffer from epilepsy.In 1997, Pokemon aired an episode that induced photosensitive epileptic seizures, which sent more than 600 Japanese children to the hospital
During the dial-up days, I used an awesome tool called Naviscope.On a similar note, I miss the browser progress bar. It gave an indication of where things were hanging on unresponsive pages. Now all you get is the spinning circle of despair.
Both me and mom (bless her) have always been huge pack rats. But we've also always been very cheap pack rats so buying media is something she definitely never did. I did give away a couple boxes of VHS tapes years ago, but those were just for recording. Oddly enough, my VHS spank bank disappeared at around the same time“VHS Tapes Are Worth…WHAT!?” Why I’m Kicking Myself For Throwing These Away!
