  • Do you still use compact discs?

    Jump

  • Yes, I have a music CD collection and a CD player in my car I use semi-frequently. I don't use discs for movies though.

  • He states in the post Haunted Choclatier uses a different engine fyi.

  • My grandmother graduated law school at the age of 65 and practiced for the next 15 years. It's never too late.

  • This is why consequentialism as a moral philosophy needs more attention in the modern age. Why you do a good act is so, so much less important than the act itself.

  • The Pancakeface

  • It's actually kinda crazy how many films use this or a very similar premise. There's also vanilla sky, the skin I live in, and seconds.

  • Thought this one was more apt personally.

  • Do both. Movers for the big items, friends to help with logistics and for smaller stuff. Moving sucks and having friends around even just for support is awesome.

  • What movie(s) did you watch 10+ times and offered something new with each view?

    Jump

  • They are both terrific movies bit quite different I'd say. TTSS is much more about the intrigue/double-crossing/spy stuff, whereas The Lives of Others is more of a character study.

    As an aside, the BBC series of TTSS with Alec Guiness is still the best and any fan of the movie/book who hasn't seen it should remedy that ASAP.

  • God I love Brick. Watched it countless times growing up and don't see it talked about enough online.

  • Truth

  • Exactly. Modern Windows is like Tesla - shiny exterior built on top of garbage cobbled together with paperclips and duct tape. No visible knobs, no easy to access features, everything hidden behind layers of needless menus and abstraction with the express goal to extract maximum value from their 'customers'.

    I'm not an Apple fanboy by any means but I feel like the two ecosystems are much closer now than they were 10-15 years ago.

  • Saw this on r*ddit, had to share with my people

  • Haha, came here to say that too.

  • Time Enough for Love was my favourite book as a young man. Tried re-reading it recently and really struggled. I feel like the last 20 years of social progress has really dated Heinlein's language especially (less so his ideas). Was a shame.

  • Nier creator Yoko Taro reveals the sad reality of modern AAA game development, “there’s less weird people making games”

    Jump

  • The Alters just released, is AA, weird, and very good! Indies are definitely the home for weird experimental shit but I feel like there are going to be more strange, niche games being made for larger budgets as the AAA space splinters and devours itself.

  • This was going to be my counterexample too. Millions protested in the US, UK, Australia, and elsewhere before any troops were committed and it still didn't help. I dont have solid numbers but I'd be shocked if less than 3.5% of people were involved. They were the biggest protests ever at the time.
