This is not a spoiler, it's such a minor thing and is obvious for a lot of people as it's common knowledge that Gunn has rebooted the DCU.

I wouldn't expect them to know more about the other genre than someone who only reads a specific genre.
That said, they don't even seem to understand the very basics (something a random person on the street would likely know) and are often unable to make educated guesses about what's going on, which is a bit funny, writer or not.

Restaurants etc are not considered publicly accessible either, it needs to be a place where it's perfectly OK to loiter for several hours.

It felt like it was carried by it's art style and visuals for the most part. Fallout was definitely the better adaptation this year.

Dropping Succession before/during S2 is crazy to me, I think it's one of the best shows ever made and it absolutely nailed its final season and ending.

Sometimes they do it via bigger cliff hangers, sometimes it's just a small reference in an otherwise self-contained movie.

You want the front fans to blow cool air into the case, then top and back fans to pull it out. All air moving in the same direction (from the front to the back) is far better than having it go in circles.
You generally don't want to have any top fans further forward than your CPU cooler either, as that will just pull air out directly from the front fans before it reaches your components as well.

I will say though that our national passkey solution (called BankID) is MUCH easier to use than third-party passkeys (such as Bitwarden, MS authenticator, etc).

But you’re right, it would likely not work in the US. It is heavily regulated in Sweden.

It’s also much easier to set up than other passkey solutions that I’ve seen too, even if you lost your previous passkey. Our banks give us hardware authenticators that we can use as well to authenticate, this is used when set up the passkey if we don't have one already.

It doesn't say anything about events that take place in the episode though, it's referring to the "previously on" segment.
