No, the mods will just get constant streams of false positive flags they have to clear.

Yeah, I edited the post to call that out specifically

That’s not what the article is about. Stack Overflow has kept content that Luigi created up, but removed his username, in violation of Creative Commons. Edited the post to make that more clear.

Preemptive compliance.

Do you have other examples? Because the article gave an example of a similar account that was not anonynized like this. Sure, accounts are often taken down, but the content isn’t left up.

That’s why the term “misogynoir” exists. It’s both, and they pile on and increase each other.

Exactly. She’s using straight needles (with a knob on one end) instead of double-pointed needles. DPNs are also straight I guess! But “straight needles” specifically means the ones with one point and a knob.

There was a bizarre movement in the Victorian era to get people to knit with their needles held with tips pointed down because it’s “more ladylike” but it’s also very difficult and irritating to knit that way so it didn’t catch on.

I don’t think there’s any way to knit a tubular sock on straight needles; the geometry doesn’t allow it. You can knit a sock flat and then sew it up into a tube, but it would look different from the comic.

Edit: actually now that I’ve thought about it more, I think there is a way but it would be super annoying (slip every other stitch so you’re knitting the back and front of the tube at the same time, that might work…). Basically the equivalent of writing a letter by writing every other word and then going back to fill in the rest. Possible, but no reason to do it.

That’s called ‘frogging’ (because you rip-it, rip-it), and you don’t use needles to do it.

Artists. I beg you. Do any research into what knitting looks like before drawing someone knitting.

It’s a huge, weird mess of a flop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPL7OZF1iI4

Hm, well that’s a bit weird, but if it was an emergency –

The BBC has also discovered the same surgeon carried out three supposedly low-risk operations in two months where all three patients died soon after.

…oh.

Yeah, though clues are few and far between; the

is the biggest clue. From Jordan’s other writings, the

and that led to the Age of Legends.

Losing consciousness for any reason = ER. A friend passed out during dinner and we weren’t sure what to do, so we called the triage nurse and they were like “ER now!” (He was fine, they never figured out what happened and it’s never happened again, but it’s definitely stayed with me.)

Great criteria. Another “straight to the ER” one is loss of consciousness; people get knocked out in movies all the time so it’s easy to assume it’s fine, but it’s not.

404 Media is doing excellent work; if you like this kind of thing you might want to sign up for their newsletter.

I recall they lowered guys out of a helicopter on ropes one year, too. It was hilarious to walk around the floor at E3 and see CoD or whatever guys in their fakey-looking booth bro costumes pass real army guys wearing real uniforms passing out enlistment info and ads for America’s Army. Why pay booth bros when you can just assign some soldiers you’re already paying?

This, but I use washi tape because it is less gunky.
