    1/4 of that was the opening weekend where it was #8 behind "The Best of Times" but ahead of the 8th week of Jewel of the Nile!

    https://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/1986W05/?ref_=bo_rl_table_1

    Ended up at #125 for the year, but when you consider this was the year with:

    1 Top Gun $176,781,7282 Crocodile Dundee $116,849,3073 The Karate Kid Part II $115,103,9794 Back to School $91,258,0005 Aliens $85,160,2486 The Color Purple $83,993,1037 Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home $72,742,0168 Ruthless People $70,788,2129 Out of Africa $70,365,42610 Ferris Bueller's Day Off $70,136,369

  • Trump says he'll release MRI results but doesn't know what part of his body was scanned

    Jump

  • Oh yeah, #1 question... "Any metal in your body?"

    "Yeah, I had open heart surgery, inside I'm laced up like a ballet slipper!"

    But they use non-magnetic metal for that.

    How do you decide what to buy online without being basically scammed?

    Jump

  • The question is coming from someone wanting to buy a thermal camera, not PARTS for a thermal camera.

    If you want to be sure you aren't getting scammed, go to the manufacturer website.

    Same for me looking at a new tablet, I don't need to research the individual screens that go into a tablet, I get all the information I need from whoever makes the tablet, Lenovo, Samsung, whoever.

    If you're looking at a retailer and are thinking "this doesn't look right", you go to the manufacturer.

  • Is there is any web comic artists which publish their comics as SVG or as transparent PNG?

  • Art is intended to be seen, and if you can see it, you can copy it.

    This has been going on for centuries:

    The only way to prevent copying is to produce media that can't be seen, read, heard, played, or watched.

  • When you go in for an MRI, they not only tell you what they're doing, they ask you to repeat it back so that they know you know what's going on.

    1 One of my favorite medical tests, feels like something out of Star Trek.

  • https://www.specialolympics.org/stories/impact/why-the-r-word-is-the-r-slur

    "The R-Word Is a Form of Bullying

    Kantar reviewed nearly 50 million social posts in the U.S. over 2 years. Over two-thirds of posts about people with intellectual disabilities were negative and nearly 29 million contained slurs (i.e., using the word “retard(ed)” or other words combined with “-tard”).

    Spreading the R-word continues to hurt people with intellectual disabilities—and whether intended or not, is a form of bullying. Using the R-word is the same as using any slur against a minority group. Eliminating this word is a step toward respect for all."

  • And they can't tell the difference between people who know their shit, and people who are bullshitting.

    We saw that going back to Al Gore and the "Lockbox" comments.

  • This is not a news org, it appears to be an AI driven spam blog.

    Reading the about us is a giant tip off:

    Yeah, no.
