I’m probably remembering wrong but The Longest Yard doesn’t have a love interest in it does it?

I enjoyed the episode overall, only gripe was Ortega being able to build anything she needs on the fly out of anything.

It has a loose story to get to the center of the universe, but I can’t say I’ve ever made it there as I always end up doing other things
- Comment on No Man's Sky Voyagers free update released with modular Corvette ships you build yourself 1 week ago:
What would you say would enable you to get your money’s worth? I just had a feeling the game wouldn’t live up to the hype and felt pretty smug when it flopped. Then years later I grabbed it for cheap because I was bored and there had been a free update. I have put over 100 hours into it.
My only complaint is something feels off about the shooting, but the stuff they have been adding has been great and gives more things to do outside of just base building.
- Comment on Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War 4 announced, delivers Ork screamy RTSness next year 2 weeks ago:
How strange that I saw a picture posted for Iron Harvest and now I find out that same studio is making DoW4. Iron Harvest had so much potential but the studio kind of abandoned it. It felt a bit clunky in ways, I’m hoping the experience they got from Iron Harvest will enable them to do well and we don’t end up with another DoW3.

I loved the musical episode. It was 100% silly, but I enjoyed it for it!
- Comment on How it feels using TOR as a Brit rn 🤘 5 weeks ago:
There were restrictions in the UK before this latest measure got put in place, ISP providers provide it so parents could manage it. But my guess is a large proportion of parents were either too stupid to use, didn’t care, or simply didn’t know. Broadband parental control.

I wonder if it’s a legacy thing, I have never enabled it and I see them on my store page all the time.

I joined Lemmy during the Reddit API change. It was pretty dead on Lemmy but communities were forming and I could have discussions with others, it felt promising. But sadly the reality now is it feels like Lemmy is becoming an echo chamber like Reddit was and conversations are stifled.
In addition to this some people immediately engage others in a negative way, where someone may be misinformed or misunderstood, and rather than offer knowledge or insight they are called fucking idiots.
It doesn’t feel like a community.

I’m with you on this. I prefer important conversations that require me to make a decision or remember something in writing. Just general conversation about what you got up to on weekend? Fine let’s talk it out.
I understand so many more people prefer verbal communication because it’s easier for them to not have to type or put their thoughts into written words. I just wish more of them understood that it’s not the same for everyone and come to a compromise.
- Comment on Official Discussion — From The World of John Wick: Ballerina [SPOILERS] 2 months ago:
Just been to see this. Some bits were entertaining, but some bits were unnecessarily stupid:
-
One guy setting his foot on fire to kick Eve as if it gives +5 fire damage.
-
“I’m not going in there, it’s John Wick, it’s suicide” - Random henchman 1 “He’s just one man” - Random henchman 2 Both proceed to run in and instantly die
-
And the biggest annoyance was how so many of the henchmen had guns but insisted on trying to engage in a fist fight.
I’d probably watch the film again a few years from now, but I’d likely be second-screening it.

It’s a shame. Season 1 was bad, season 2 was watchable, but I really enjoyed season 3. It felt like they were finally getting into their stride.

I find it interesting that they have two different actors playing Clark and Superman.
- Comment on EA employees "upset and confused" at return to office mandate 3 months ago:
I wish people would all collectively agree that employers should have to pay for commute time to their offices. I would like to think this would quickly bolster WFH.
- Comment on Never gonna loosen them laces 3 months ago:
I bought a £6 metal one, it’s only a small one as I still have plenty of mobility. I imagine if you have a bad back or reduced mobility you’d want a longer one. I think the brand was called Zomake? I bought it many years ago, it’s still in great condition apart from the logo wearing off.
- Comment on Never gonna loosen them laces 3 months ago:
I know I may seem old for saying this, but I highly recommend getting a decent metal shoehorn. Makes putting on shoes a breeze, and no need to wreck your fingers or do that foot-heel pumping thing. The backs of my trainers last so much longer now too!

Fortunately I’m not invested in the MCU as much as I once was. Probably worth chucking the spoiler in some spoiler tags though.
- Comment on Anon struggles with a one day chip 4 months ago:
Back when I was 15 I had a gf that was basically nocturnal. She’d throw shit at me (e.g. scissors, a knife, a fork) while I was sleeping if I was breathing too loud. If the internet died in the house she would wake me up to try and fix it.

Strange that they include Kraven Hunter in the list but not Madame Web which had a greater loss of like $100m?
- Comment on Discussion - Havoc [Spoilers] 4 months ago:
Watched this film last night with my other half. Before starting I asked what they thought would be the movie out of 5, they said 2.5, I said 3.5.
Secretly I was hoping it would be higher given there was association to the creator of The Raid and The Raid Redemption. Going in I was expecting minimal story with a ton of gory action, and some awesome choreography.
The first car chase scene was a dark, fuzzy, shaky mess with what definitely looked like poor CGI. It was giving me a bit of nostalgia from back when I used to play Max Payne.
Following action sequences were also all shaky cut cam, which really puts me off as you know the choreography is just not great. Where was the clean hard hitting action we would see from the likes of The Raid?
Story wise it met my expectations, a loose plot and helps drive the action sequences forward, but presenting me with a bunch of characters I just didn’t care about.
I think my partner got the guess right, 2.5.

I’m guessing Sydney would be playing Zoe, are we going to have a cringe British accent from her?
- Comment on What movies have you watched this week? 4 months ago:
Watched Paddington in Peru. Definitely the weakest of the films and was jarring that Mrs Brown was a different actress. It still had its wholesome moments though.
- Comment on Minecraft movie spawns ‘annoying’ cinema trend that viewers claim ‘ruins’ the film 4 months ago:
I imagine it varies between countries. In the UK I would say I’m happy for laughter, and the odd gasp. Anything more such as cheering, singing or clapping is not on to me personally.
