That's gracious of you.

I'm leaning at a right angle toward schadenfreude, watching a redneck at a barbecue who's been pouring gasoline on his charcoal briquettes for the past 8 years about to spark his lighter.

sorry to be late, but I've been using a dual boot Linux windows for several years, I leave secure boot off.

That's easily toggled in the bios.

I was worried about this dual boot problem too, but I've had no problem switching back and forth between Linux and windows like normal for weeks now, so I don't think it's a problem, especially if secure boot is disabled.

are you telling me that some people wipe with toilet paper after they stand up?

Fitgirl's been around over a decade.

they'll catch up to fitgirl in another decade or so, by which time there are going to be five new fitgirls. five dozen?

was that their stated reason for attacking the internet archive?

to bring awareness to the security breaches?

is this referencing a specific new horrific policy?

or just all the horrific conservative policies denying women bodily autonomy?

looks like Kentucky is pro-rapist:

specifically pro-child rapist as well:

does anyone have any insight into this? actual behind the scenes knowledge?

the sets either look like cheap plastic or ps3 graphics.

It's very distracting and making it almost impossible for me to immerse myself in the story.

It's very frustrating because I like the movie and the story and I think the actors are mostly doing a good job, kamala and her family are hilarious, but I can't get over how dog shit the CGI , editing and set pieces are.

did anyone else notice this?

and the budget was 220 million. it was huge, I can't understand why the effects and set pieces are so terrible.

a small example: when captain Marvel "changes" her clothes in the singing Palace, her entire wardrobe is clearly changed off screen, she's already wearing her new costume when the camera switches back to her and there are literal like 1970s cartoon Disney sparkles floating around her for a second to imply that she morphed her costume?

have Marvel movies always looked this ridiculous? I feel like 10 years ago the effects and settings were more believable, or at the very least more immersive.

All of these effects look like they were made in one frantic week.

oh, and the costumes?

Why are all the costumes baggy?

like professor Marvel's costume is baggy, everyone on Nick Fury ship is wearing baggy jumpsuits.

and it's not like cool baggy, they just didn't make costumes that fit for everybody on set?

professor's Marvel's mom's hair looks crazy, it looks like they sprayed white spray paint on her head and was like okay, she's old now.

the kittens are rough, their textures, movements and physics are absurd.

i like watching "making-of" or "behind-the-scenes" featurettes and documentaries about the behind the scenes machinations of movie making, but in terms of literature, I'm not sure what to look for if i want to learn about the process Martha wells went through to conceive the murderbot diaries, for example.

i can search for making-of The Matrix and find documentaries, but not making-of project hail Mary and find similar literary results.

is there a section of literature like this?

should i be reading annotated editions?

thanks

I used to take screenshots of the picture I wanted to use as wallpaper, but then Android stopped that from working, and now I have to manually add a giant border to make the screenshots fit the arbitrary fiant wallpaper size on the Android screen.

any normal screenshot I take is blown way oversized, is there any way to simply make a screenshot my wallpaper yet on Android?

it seems crazy that this is still so complicated years later on Android, am I missing something?

Thanks for any help

I remember

spoilera couple different things.

less clearly, i remember Hanks trying to kill himself, the branch breaking and then you seeing the broken tree until the scene fades to black into the next scene. but I suspect this scene was actually from another movie.

more clearly, i remember Tom hanks' character suicide-testing a wooden dummy to test the carrying capacity of the branch that is on a short but tall-enough cliff, but the dummy is too heavy and the branch breaks.

Branch can't break twice, so I'm clearly remembering something wrong, but I "know" that whatever I saw happened fairly early on in the movie and was not his description of attempted suicide near the end of the movie.

I remember a fairly lengthy (2-3 minutes) action scene of him physically testing the tree off a cliff.

other people swear that neither scene was in the movie and there's only the description of his attempted suicide at the end.

there are unsubstantiated rumors that the scene was in the theatrical version(which is the version i saw) but not in home releases.

I haven't seen the movie since I saw it in theaters when it came out.

What do you remember?

the car models can be whatever, I'm just curious if anyone is dressing up their cheap cars as expensive ones or if this is an industry yet?

is there a legal hurdle?

is there a limit to car decision in general?

is this sort of car case business already a thing?

I love Bluetooth bone conduction earphones and I'm ready to buy something pricier, sturdier, waterproof, and hopefully sound far superior to everything I've tried.

I've had a few budget sets, and I love the convenience, portability, and weight of all of them, but the audio is obviously dog s***.

Are there any bone conduction headphones that are not dog s*** audially that any of you can personally attest to?

Thanks
