Might have been more apt if they’d written “recognised”, instead.

In this case they used the dashes for dramatic effect. It’s sometimes used to mimic spoken English, in that the cadence of the sentence is changed by the information contained in the dashes. Often, it’s replaced by commas in the form of a non-defining relative clause (The man, who lived in the house next to me for many years, was coming to visit). Think of it like a cue to take a pause before saying/reading the information.

1 every 5 years?? Yeah, ok, Mr. Popular.
Thanks for posting! I like his style.
it’s a bit modern-looking to be Bosch. I would like to know who the artist is, though.
And ‘replaced’ it with widgets that spam you with unremovable, gutter-press, shite
I don’t need to read this article to know that the Taskbar Calendar/Agenda Flyout is still missing.
Serious question: what actually is the value of hard work?

That someone has a job working for the railway? In the UK? And that they’re measuring distance in kilometres? Now, that would be interesting.
doleo@kbin.socialto Risa@startrek.website•MRW someone is claiming Star Trek should not do comedy episodes41·2 years agoI agree, I exaggerated out of frustration. The mood here, and the IMDB ratings, show that it’s really a hit with the fans.
I quite like the show, but I find it jarring how the tone shifts so dramatically between episodes.
Maybe if the goofiness had been spread over 20+ episodes of a season, it wouldn’t have felt that way. But 3/10 (out of 9, so far, I’m still hoping I can watch the last episode) just seems too high a ratio.

I think the Nano and Micro pog don’t sound the same, but they don’t state which one this pedal will sound like. The Pog2 (proper) is the best octaver I’ve found, so far, though.

In amongst the passable episodes there’s so much bad sitcom material. The tones shifts so dramatically, its hard to know what kind of show you’re watching.
A lot of people are lapping it up, though. The star trek fans that I’ve spoken to, online, seem to think it’s the best show for ages.

The internet, as experienced by most humans today, primarily consists of ads, sponsored content, propaganda and spin. I don’t really see how it’s contributing to our development in a constructive manner.
