Those aren’t film, they’re tape. Film is what’s in the camera or shown through a projector and are visible to the naked eye. VHS, Betamax, and video2000 are magnetic tape formats that aren’t viewable with the naked eye. Regardless, film is still a universally recognized term for a movie despite a lot of (not all though) movies being made with digital cameras.
- Comment on What even is the point of delivery anymore 1 year ago:
Half of the places I order from seal the bags with stickers that make it obvious if someone has tampered with it. And also, I don’t really worry about it because I have never done anything to this stranger to make them inclined to tamper with my food. And if they’re doing this job, they probably really need the money and don’t want to risk getting banned (can’t really say fired because they’re not technically employees) and are also in such a hurry because every second counts on picking up enough orders in a “shift.” Not everyone is out to get me. I’ve mostly had good experiences with delivery and most of the screw ups are from the restaurant, not the delivery person.
All that said, I should order less delivery. For my health and my wallet. But I just value my time probably far higher than I should.
