just a couple of years… yeah…
- Comment on LPT Do it. 6 months ago:
I generally do this on my NAS, combined with nightly and bi-weekly backups, plus a 6-mo safety backup, to a backup drive. Also, basic off-site nightly backups for important stuff. If I worked on really important stuff that required lots of versioning, though, I’d probably go with a versioning system instead of inserting the date.
- Comment on Movie lines people laughed at in theaters despite not actually being intended to be funny? 7 months ago:
I don’t go to theaters enough to see entire audiences laughing, but I laughed…
I laughed uncontrollably at the climax/ending of Dark City at a friend’s birthday party. It was his favorite movie at the time. He wasn’t amused. I think the fact that he took the movie SO seriously, and that it ended in such an embarrassing schlocky way, was just too much for my poor system.
the ending
It turns into a Dragonball-z fan film, with energy beams meeting in the middle and one guy straining and pushing harder and knocking the energy beam into the other, and other silly nonsense. It did not fit the tone of the movie AT ALL. Then, the movie ends as quickly as possible.
Also laughed my way through most of the first Fast and the Furious movie, in the theater. At the time, it seemed like an amazing absurdist comedy, but these days it’d be very tamely dumb. Lots of people probably think of it as some sort of classic or some shit now.
Finally, nobody in the theater laughed once at Down Periscope. IMDB has it at 6.2, but… nobody laughed. We walked out after giving up 30min in.

It’s bad, but is it as bad as in movies/tv where people look into a microscope and see little viruses multiplying, or even worse, DNA double-helices floating around? Maybe it is…

I stopped watching after The Force Awakens, and this makes me even more sure of my decision.

There are plenty of those, depending on the location. Is it one of the Elodea species maybe?

Oh… I thought this was satirical about gender or something. Not literally saying that those are the two best screws, because NOBODY IN THE WORLD THINKS THAT.
