Plus they have a bunch of the original VAs
Kaos. Jeff Goldlum plays a paranoid Zeus. That’s pretty much all to need to know, but the cast and writing are both incredible
When they announced new star wars like 10 years ago I really hoped for a Kyle Katarn story. Seeing what they’ve done though I’m glad they left him alone

Watch videos and read some articles about it. There are different edge angles for different use cases, but you’ll generally aim for 20-25°. For things like razors and kitchen knives you’ll want a straight grind/edge and for more heavy use knives a slightly beveled edge is okay. Low grit is for large corrections like burrs and blunt spots. Those kinds of corrections will take a lot of time and you’ll want to look for uniformity before moving to higher grits for a sharper edge and eventually polish. Highly recommend starting with an angle tool and going slowly with a knife you don’t really care about. Work on keeping your angle and pressure consistent and don’t press down very hard. If you apply too much pressure you’ll damage both the edge and stone, especially for softer (higher grit) stones. Check your work regularly to make sure the edge is consistent, you’ll see it pretty clearly under a light. It takes practice. I’ve been freehand sharpening for about 20 years and I still mess up sometimes.

My biggest tip is regular maintenance! I clean and do a few passes on 3000 grit with my kitchen knife every time I use it and it’s been my sharpest knife for 10 years. And clean your stone! Residual steel will build up, making the stone less effective and also risking damage to the edge.

I order a lot of takeout and recently stopped using online ordering because a bunch of them in the area stopped allowing orders as a guest. They force to log in or sign up. I’ve found that calling the store is easier and faster
“is it web scale?”
By sheer coincidence, I just made an install image yesterday and will be switching soon

There’s some debate on this! Most movie dialogue is designed to convey the impression of conversation, but this is naturally unrealistic. People stutter and start over and get distracted in normal conversation much like you described, which can become very burdensome on the screen. Like when your boss won’t get to the point in the standup. Overly precise dialogue is equally burdensome and often fails to maintain attention (see: the Time 1776 AI videos). A lot of the discussion around how best to balance those natural pauses and disruptions around the otherwise “eloquent” speech in movies to best convey a characterization.

I’m sure others out there can point to legitimate sources, but I’m not super read up on it

Do my 600 applications mean nothing?!

(Yes, they in fact mean nothing)
