Rick rolling aside, what happened?

Thank you, Slatlun. It’s a pet peeve of mine. I read somewhere that not rewriting article headlines is a holdover from some subreddits who prohibited the practice.

How about saying which states, rather than posting a clickbait headline?

She was most certainly real. Here’s her Find a Grave memorial with a supporting news article, https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/250277859/shirley-elizabeth-highfield , and the r/vintageads subreddit took a detailed look at her some time ago - https://www.reddit.com/r/vintageads/comments/18dxqu3/the_astonishing_mrs_highfield_for_rinsos_soap/

Unfortunately this is no longer true. Matsumoto’s paper, “Voyager Interstellar Mission: Challenges of Flying a Very Old Spacecraft on a Very Long Mission” notes that the full suite of system simulators were not retained beyond the prime mission due to reliability problems, loss of expertise, and a move. This makes the team’s recent achievements even more impressive.

Enjoyed this thoroughly. I am especially glad to have this community in this age of AI.

Stunning. I especially like the artist’s subtle but skilled use of light. Thank you for sharing this.

My first reaction to this post was a downvote, since the NSFW tagging blurred the image in my feed, and the blurred image looked like something that should be blurred. The title also sounded suspect. I assumed it was porn spam until I opened it.

Echoes of Henry Root. Here’s a pound!
