It’s Hamtramck, Wayne County, Michigan, USA, since the title is clickbaity. It’s just outside a city within Detroit, and the population is around 28,000, though it was historically more populous.
It’s has a lot of immigrants settle there from Yemen, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and south-east Asia since the town had a financial crisis in the mid-2000s stemming from factory closures. The council has typically had a Muslim majority in the past two decades.
I really hope that this is the answer, purely because adding more tape to fix an incredibly tape-heavy setup would be hilarious.
What’s the first image? I can’t remember how ROTK portrays the hobbits’ return to the Shire, other than general disappointment, but this looks a little like they might have filmed the Scouring of the Shire and then scrapped it.
Center right is Idris Elba as DCI John Luther in Luther, not as Stringer Bell in The Wire.
Happy Indepedence Day! Because you can write “independence” without three Ns!
From the thread, for the morbidly curious:
Alpha males are assertive and dominant. They often take charge in social settings, have high social status, and are charismatic leaders. They’re the center of attention, like a CEO who can effortlessly command a room.
Examples of alpha males in movies include King Leonidas, Captain America, and Thomas Shelby. These characters are strong leaders, exhibit courage, and inspire those around them, often fighting for principles or causes bigger than themselves.
Beta males are less dominant and more agreeable and cooperative. They play a passive role in social hierarchies and crave forming relationships. A supportive colleague who willingly takes on a secondary role is a typical beta male.
Characters like Ron Weasley, Samwise Gamgee, and Bruce Banner are beta males who excel in supportive roles.
Delta males often go unnoticed in social settings. They are neither dominant nor submissive and are fairly average in social interactions. Their adaptability makes them reliable, but they rarely lead.
An individual who follows instructions well but isn’t a natural leader represents a Delta male. Harry Potter, Marty McFly, and Frodo Baggins are Delta males who reluctantly take on leadership roles when needed.
Gamma males are contrarians, often rejecting or challenging social norms. Their independent thinking sometimes makes them outsiders. A rebellious artist who struggles socially but is intelligent in other ways encapsulates this type.
Tony Stark, Jack Sparrow, and Han Solo are gamma males who challenge social expectations. They are highly independent, intelligent, and a bit rebellious, making them stand out.
Omega males are at the bottom of the social hierarchy and often lack social skills. They are typically introverted and may not lack self-confidence but are generally unpopular. They are often focused on specific interests, like a nerd who prefers solitude in his hobbies.
Peter Parker, Newt Scamander, and Walter Mitty are Omega males who may struggle with social interactions but are capable of extraordinary things when focused on their passions.
Sigma males reject traditional social hierarchies and value their independence and self-reliance. They share charismatic traits with Alphas but operate outside conventional norms. A lone wolf who doesn’t seek validation from others embodies this archetype.
Bruce Wayne, James Bond, and John Wick are Sigma males who operate outside traditional hierarchies. They are charismatic, self-reliant, and work alone, unfettered by societal expectations.
(He then goes on to plug several books about how to attract women.)

Ceres is between Mars and Jupiter.
Indeed, but Eris is only marginally smaller and a fair bit more massive, and the latter is generally more important in categorization.
If this is Brighton, the astronomical rent cost probably means they can’t justify the cost of a flag.
The problem with recognizing Pluto is that Eris, Haumea, Makemake, Gonggong, Quaoar, Sedna, Ceres, Orcus, and perhaps also Salacia also should probably be included, and that makes for a nightmare of a mnemonic. As we all know, classification is decided on mnemonic plausibility.
A good friend is like a chronometer – very reliable, well balanced, and generally powered by a nickel-steel spring.
Why does Gandalf the White look like Peter Serafinowicz’s character Brian Butterfield?
In place of a Dark Lord, you would have a hen! Not dark, but round and orange as the dawn sun! Loud as the sea! Scratching and pecking even to the foundations of the earth! All shall love me, and despair!
The sort of end user that gets common sense stuff wrong is not the sort of end user that would ever have read the documentation anyway 🤷
That might be the trend now, but the common plural before Tolkien was “dwarfs” for the mythical creature.
Yes, but he and Bilbo were nouveaux-riches in terms of Bilbo’s enormous wealth, and not significantly landed. They were a respected established family, and recently connected to the Tooks and Brandybucks, but Merry and Pippin are next in line to be the Master of the Hall and ‘The Took’ (and presumably Thain?).
The Start menu is C++/XAML, but the “recommended” section uses React Native for Windows. That still means a performance hit, but it’s got nothing to do with Electron.
