I haven’t had to write in a news style too often, but headlines (from AP guidelines at least) are meant to stand entirely on their own and without context.

While I agree that language can and should change, the use of hyperbole, slang, or cliches in a headline can negatively impact the clarity of the headline, which is most important.

Does something like decimate or carnage have two widely accepted meanings now? Then as an editor, I would caution against their use in a headline. Something like “Hundreds sickened in suspected mass food poisoning at New Zealand university” seems fine and is without clickbait.

So when Gandalf said “fly, you fools” to the fellowship, he was ordering them to sprout wings and fly away?

Flounders are born symmetrical; eye migration happens as they transition to the juvenile stage of growth.

The imperial system doesn’t have any electromagnetism units that I’m aware of, so they borrow from SI.

Yes he definitely was, but I guess studios weren’t ready for the implication of mice-like creatures bring birthed from human vaginas.

Either ambient instrumental music (lots of Brian Eno) or any music that I know all the words to (so that my brain doesn’t have to actively process the lyrics).

Looks like five mistakes to me. And two spelling errors.

You could, but should pick a different drive than c (this will likely break a ton of stuff)

I actually really like that fsutil case sensitivity can be set on a folder by folder basis so that I can have a safe space to deal with Linux files.

I’m not sure if this is sarcastic, since I have neighbors just like this. (I hope it is sarcastic)

I guess I found my hill:

If you are worried about your sentence leaving ambiguity for your pronouns, then write a better sentence.

It’s a graph of this: https://youtu.be/G7RgN9ijwE4

In an attempt to mimic D&D more closely, all follow up movies will be cancelled due to scheduling conflicts.

A great album. I’d probably put IKSSE3 barely above it since it was my entry point to Coheed (you never forget your first).
