Pilots drawing things with flight paths is a niche interest but a fucking fantastic one. Boeing Dreamliner 18-hour test flight.

I’m just happy that the pilots out there have this kind of precision.

Oh I thought some pilot was doing this to some poor passengers who just wanted to go from Chicago to LA or something and then I scrolled up and saw it was test pilots.

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY USEFUL THANK YOU

ADDITIONALLY:

YOU ARE NOT ‘PHASED’. YOU ARE ‘FAZED.’

IF IT HAS BEEN A VERY LONG DAY, YOU ARE ‘WEARY’. IF SOMEONE IS ACTING IN A WAY THAT MAKES YOU SUSPICIOUS, YOU ARE ‘WARY’.

ALL IN ‘DUE’ TIME, NOT ‘DO’ TIME

‘PER SE’ NOT ‘PER SAY’

THANK YOU

Trick for telling whether to use “me” or “i”

Drop the other subject(s) and if the sentence makes sense, you’re using the right one.

Examples:

Incorrect- Arthur and me are going to the mall//me am going to the mall -no

Correct- Arthur and i are going to the mall//i am going to the mall

Incorrect- they brought presents for Henry and i//they brought presents for i -no

Correct- they brought presents for Henry and me//they brought presents for me

Rogue - a scoundrel or disreputable person

The affect vs effect thing is very useful! Until you learn that you can effect (to cause to occur; bring about; accomplish) an affect (feeling or emotion, OR outward expression of same; yes, this is two nouns!) because English is a garbage fire.

UNCONSCIOUS: NOT AWAKE

SUBCONSCIOUS: NOT AWARE

You do not make a decision unconsciously, it’s SUBCONSCIOUSLY.

If you wanna say someone made a decision without realizing, you use SUBCONSCIOUS.

If you wanna say you made a decision while sleeping (how??) you use UNCONSCIOUS

So many writers don’t know this and it drives me nuts

When you don’t want to code predictive aiming so you just make the projectile homing instead.

The story of this is fascinating and hilarious.

So this is, obviously, Hitman. And in Hitman you can pick up objects and throw them to cause a noise distraction. But you can also throw them at a person to sneakily take them out, particularly if the object is bladed/sharp or heavy. Now, the thrown weapon is programmed to home in on the target, but it normally moves so fast and the target so slowly that it makes no difference. Enter the briefcase. Intended for discreetly carrying weapons, but because of the briefcase’s size and bulk, it can be thrown, it has a much slower flight speed than, say, a knife or a screwdriver. But this meant that people noticed the trick, because they finally found a weapon that flies slowly enough to turn in mid-air. The devs patched this out of later games, the fans revolted - they wanted the janky homing briefcase.

Now we come to Hitman 2 (2019). The devs, as a joke, added a special variant of the briefcase to the game. So now, not only was there the ordinary briefcase, but a special version of the briefcase with minimum flight speed and perfect homing. Combine that with the one point in the game where a target can out-manoeuvre the inexorable march of the slow, flying suitcase, and you get one of the funniest gifs in modern gaming
