Excessive use of em dashes would be about #25 on my list of telltale signs something was written by AI. And it’s far from the most annoying one.

(My personal #1 annoying telltale sign is endless use of “It wasn’t just x, it was also y”-type constructions.) techcrunch.com/2025/11/14/o...

OpenAI says users can now personalize ChatGPT to stop using the em dash in its output.

Did you know that all the simulators at Southwest Airlines have a rubber chicken factory installed dangling from the bottom?

Apparently the lynotype had a hard time with the letter "F". Thanks @jeffjarvis.bsky.social for all your lessons on Johannes Gutenberg on TWIG.

I don't know what it is but after a good night's sleep and getting all of my devices charged up in the hotel room before a day of flying makes me feel refreshed! RNO-PHX-BWI

If you’re in the Arlington, VA area on Thursday, I just confirmed that I’ll be joining David Zucker to…I don’t know, listen to him answer questions and whisper to myself, “I knew that”? Whatever the case, I’m very much looking forward to it!

The most unrealistic thing about flight simulator 2024 is that on career mode you can taxi around with your strobe lights on and somebody in a Delta airplane won't yell at you.

I think it's charming that my parents called me today after buying new iPhones to complain about them not including a user manual. I suggested they will be able to make phone calls, browse Facebook and take photos just as easily as on the previous generation.

This tour tonight was everything I want in an evening: walking around the city, learning from an extremely knowledgeable historian, standing outside Mick O’Shea’s discussing Chinese opium, and a touch of Victorian occultism.

Check it out if you love Baltimore and want to learn more about the city!

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has just a few glitches. Came back from mapping the controls to find the Cessna a little out of the operating envelope.
