They must have been storing your password in plaintext on their end in order for that to work.

Wheels are so boring! Why can't they just innovate?!

This video says it both ways I've heard. The white people around me pronounce it like the one with the union jack (heavy emphasis on the B), the Spanish speakers pronounce it more like the version with the American flag background (ironic). Most of the other pronunciation videos I could find seem to be made by AI voices and mangle the pronunciation in a myriad of ways. This other video has an actual person speaking well (I can't speak to the rest of the content of the video).

I've been mocked and had some people outright pretend they don't understand what I'm saying when I pronounce guanábana correctly.

Not for the boots. This is the path to destruction. Stuffing them with crumpled newspaper and setting them in front of a fan will wick the moisture out of them faster and without the heat damage. Even if they aren't melting those materials keeping the boots pliable and waterproof don't generally stand up well to any kind of heated drying.

This is a fun experiment, but it's not precisely the peaks and troughs of the actual waves themselves that you're seeing, it's the maximums and minimums of the amplitude from those waves interfering with their reflections. You see the interference pattern, not the waves.

And the pineapple armor works wonderfully, until its enzymes digest you enough that the line between knight and pineapple becomes unclear, like Leto Atreides II covering himself in Sand Worm Trout and becoming the God Emperor of Dune.

They shouldn't be separate in the first place. It's just bad design that's prone to failure. And in this case that failure mode is VERY far from failsafe, it's potentially deadly.

That dog's smile definitely says, "I'm anxious. Can we leave?".
