I mean, it's not like this really tests their acting chops. It's a fun flick, but don't get your hopes too high. 😅

Best I can do is Helen Mirren with Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley as a book club at a retirement home that solves the first real murder after only previously reading about them. David Tenant is the antagonist and Tom Ellis (of Lucifer) as Pierce Brosnan's son.

This episode ends with Homer falling into the real world. 14 year old me was CONVINCED that this meant all future episodes of The Simpsons would be a blend of live action and CGI, à la Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

So do you grow your own food and harvest your own electricity and smelt you own ore to make your own electronic devices to post on the internet that you're accessing via your own isp?

"Small business owners" feels like an arbitrary line. Sure, there's those that are doing it because they're bootlickers and capitalists, but restaurants are terrible investments. If you're avoiding chains and conglomerates, you're more likely to be supporting a comrade who is trying to survive in a capitalist country. This is not an ACAB situation. There are employee owned small businesses and work places that treat workers fairly.

Silver lining: It's hard to hold a grudge when you forgot that you were angry at someone (or why).

Starting w/ M4 MacBook Pros, the anti reflective screen option is shockingly good.

This article is sensationalizing a non-issue. It reads like the author went to the convention with the story already written and then tried (and failed) to find people that supported the premise.

As someone who attended GDC for the full week this year, I can tell you that not a single conversation I had or panel I attended discussed the RAM shortage. I'm sure this topic arose in some circles, especially anything related to the timing or cost of next gen hardware. As a professional AAA game designer of 25 years and an occasional game director, this does not affect the way that the games themselves are made. Games on consoles already have their limitations, games on PC should always be (but not always are) optimized to work across a broad spectrum of hardware configurations, with the minimum spec being the lowest system possible without sacrificing playability.

Even people interviewed in the article are saying the same thing:

“Does this affect us? No,” Subotnick said. “We’re making games on as many platforms as we can to delight consumers. Could it impact us? Sure. If there’s less devices for people to get their hands on, then we potentially have less consumers to sell to. But right now, I’d argue that there are plenty of consumers with plenty of devices for us to sell these games to. Where it could impact us is, sure, we will have to make decisions around next-gen platforms when they tell us that it’s time to bring content to them. And if they are threatened to have a total addressable market that is viable from a business standpoint, sure that’s a business challenge. But right now all I’d be doing is speculating on a bunch of hypotheticals.”

On the 45?

I mean, it's a hot take, I'll give you that. I can't agree with it, though. Every line of dialogue in that film moves plot. It's really well edited and far ahead of its time. Modern cinema owes a lot to the lessons taught by Casablanca.

Inception isn't that great.

It's complex for the sake of complexity and the complication needlessly makes the story more difficult to parse. The revelation about there being an additional layer before reality is such an overused trope that it wasn't an interesting twist and added nothing to the plot.

I've never had tuna salad with avocado, and now I really want to try it. Thanks for this!
