• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Three years after a cinematographer was killed by a stray bullet on set, "Rust" is being released in theaters this weekend. Funds from the release will go to the victim's family, mainly to her son.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, on one hand I see their point of view that it was a project that was poorly managed and led to her death.

  On the other hand, this is in part HER art. So it feels weird to bury something that she helped create, cared about, and showcases her particular vision. I feel that it’s better to be released and to bring to focus her particular talents and artistry. Let it be a celebration of her work and vision.

  Married with Children was super fun and about normal people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dehumidifiers are confusing. Here's why. | Technology Connections⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My AC will cool the house, but it will still be uncomfortably humid. I haven’t tried a dehumidifier in addition to the AC, but I’ve been tempted. I don’t want to take the temp in the house too low.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else hate knowing stuff and looking "smart"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The curse of competence.

  Being smart means I keep getting handed more work.

  I’m not wearing it now. But I have an old Casio calculator watch I wear.

  Same one Dennis Nerdy wears in Jurassic Park

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hollywood Is Cranking Out Original Movies. Audiences Aren’t Showing Up.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m the opposite with TV. Most seasons are too long and just get filled with pointless interpersonal drama that feels far too contrived. I think mini series length is usually better.

  I also personally feel that as series go on past the first, maybe second season, the story has been told and now they are just having to fill it with slop because the studios want anything making money to continue indefinitely even if there isn’t a good story needing to be told anymore.

  Will they get rid of games have 3 or 4 or more “currencies.”

  The Fifth Elephant by Terry Pratchett is just so damn good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Working below minimum wage to save the planet⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have some things. I just got a roll of tpu to try and print a new drain plug for something that they don’t offer replacement parts on.

  But I’ve found I don’t need another organizer or knick knack anymore. And personally, I’m not a huge fan of plastic. If I can get something in wood, metal, glass, or ceramic I’d much rather do that.

  It’s great for when I need it. I just don’t need it often.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What keeps Americans from being mad about the state of their country?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We all are. The left and the right.

  We have all been told from different sources who or what to be mad about.

  Some were so mad about contrived issues they voted in someone who campaigned on destroying the federal government.

  Others are pissed off that that person who was voted in is destroying the federal government.

  The outrage machine literally is why the fascist pig is in the Whitehouse in the first place.

  What you might be asking is why we aren’t rioting in the streets. Just know that some of us are 4 times as far from our countries capital as London is from Berlin. In a blue state, who would I be protesting to? The people who already agree with me?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Working below minimum wage to save the planet⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 3d printer. Honestly, it’s mostly junk that gets printed. I like the idea, but the utility isn’t there. It’s a solution in search of a problem.

  But I’ve made a few neat things. My own design for cabinet and drawer hardware and some custom knick knack souvenirs for a gig I work on each year to give to the crew.

  What I want is a large library of 3d model replacement parts for things like my car, but they haven’t been made available so I’d have to model them myself and I’m not that good.
