  our inspection saved us money. they found a crack in the outdoor tiling sealant that was retaining water. we spent $200 on their services, but their report helped us regotiate $5000 off our initial offer, which we had repaired for ~$500. for anybody tossing it up, it's a no-brainer.

  I love when articles use “may” to cover the lack of story lol. I “may” get pizza for dinner, but I also likely won’t. Anything’s possible

  Just want to mention Librewolf which is also FF based and has no telemetry out of the box, as well or ublock origin installed by default.

  Have you played many card games? Trump cards are ones that beat any other card in a hand.

  I remembering loving GT. I loved the pan storyline, and the ssj4 design is sick. Super has never hit as hard as GT did, but thats probably just me

  I enjoyed elemental as a piece about first generation immigrants. Also found it refreshing that Disney allowed it to be a love story, and that drove the plot. But yes, the scene where they all get to element city or whatever was a total retread of zootopia

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Mindhunter' Is Dead — So Stop Asking David Fincher About It!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I also find it difficult to believe it’s more expensive than the average TV drama, considering Fincher already has a development deal with the network.

  I'm not saying you're wrong, but Fincher is very particular about his shots, and as such there is a metric shit-tonne of CGI in both seasons of mindhunter. There's a few videos on youtube that demonstrate it. Again, I don't think that would inherently make it way more expensive than the typical, but his vision comes with a price tag.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple Suspends Deals With Producers, Including Natalie Portman & Adam McKay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Apparently their execs saw promising demos, they believe the engineers will have the whole problem solved in 3 years, the engineers know they’re smoking crack.

  reminds me of uber, who were likely sold the dream of a fleet of fully self driving cars within a few years, so they only had to deal with pesky "employees" for that long.

  I was hoping for one more season as well, I was excited to see more of Catherine without Peter. But Nicholas Hoult's departure would have been a tougher watch, so it makes sense.

  when is Bear going to tell people he met Maximus? beyond alora cheese and WJ. he told everyone he met deer lady, but didn't bother to say anything about a person from Okern that believes in aliens?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Barbie’ To Play Imax Theaters This Fall With Never-Seen Post-Credits Footage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like the phrase “never before seen” is kinda rich for a film that’s still in cinemas. It holds weight when it’s a decades old film, but for most of the world all of the footage in the film is never before seen.
