An infograph meme quoting a moment from the movie "The Incredibles". There is black text that reads: Alright, listen closely. I'd like to help you with the ads, but I can't. I'd like to tell you to click on the gear icon and select "Report Playback Issue". But I can't. I also do not advise you to select anything related to how the advertisement is offensive or inappropriate; I wouldn't expect Twitch to do something about the ICE ads if they get flooded with enough reports. Below, there are images that are as follows: From left to right, top to bottom. Mr Incredible whispering to an old lady in an office building. A screenshot of Twitchs' Settings menu with "Report Playback Issue" highlighted. A close-up of Mr Incredible whispering. A screenshot of Twitchs' Report Playback Issue menu with a dropdown menu containing options.

I bought prototypes from several US suppliers and they were just far, far worse quality than what I could get overseas with even minimal searching.

Vibrant and share schematics of a wind tunnel can be seen on one screen while a blue background with the red NASA worm logo is displayed on the other. credit Glenn Research Centre collection on IA.
Was curious about what NASA stuff the Internet Archive might have and came across this gorgeous bit of cassette/diskette futurism: wind tunnel software and hardware at the Lewis Research Centre.
The worm logo is so fitting for that kind of display. <3
