- Comment on Why aren't all rooms holodecks? 1 week ago:
I’d say the biggest reason is energy, like everyone else. But also, being able to make your room into any fantasy scenario you want would probably lead to problems with adjusting to everyday life. They don’t need a whole ship full of Barclays screwing up at their job.
- Comment on ‘There will always be people like you’: Tekken boss blasts ‘disrespectful’ fan for criticising character’s new look 1 week ago:
Beautiful response.
- Comment on 'Captain America: Brave New World' Slides 68% at Box Office to $28 Million 2nd Weekend 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t seen it. But to be honest, I haven’t watched a Marvel film since Avengers: Age of Ultron. It just feels like they’re recycling the same stuff over and over.
- Comment on How it started/How it's going 2 weeks ago:
Wow, I didn’t know Titanic was even on Laserdisc. Good luck, I hope you complete the set.
So far, Glory is the only movie I have on two formats, VHS and DVD.
- Comment on The Secret Life of the Videorecorder - Remastered 2 weeks ago:
I used to watch it on the Discovery Channel in the US, before that whole reality TV thing.

Thanks. I think it’s more funny than problematic, but I don’t want to offend people. Plus I’m not Jewish (I’m black), so I can’t just say “it’s not a big deal, get over it.”
- Comment on The Oklahoma Coaches Hall of Fame has a pedophile that they refuse to remove 3 weeks ago:
I can relate. I grew up in Indiana. It’s more of a basketball state, but same vibe.

I don’t know what it is about football and churches; they love protecting bad people. I can’t imagine what it’d be like playing football at a religious school.

I had to look that word up. I guess you’re right, but I should probably wait a while for the dust to settle. Right now the Kanye thing is still fresh in everyone’s minds.

- Comment on A 3D-printed VHS cleaner is saving memories from mold 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t know moldy tapes were a thing. I’m digitizing some tapes I got from my grandparents’ house. Now I’ve got that to worry about. 😐
- Comment on Gaming on Linux, How openSUSE Stacks Up for Gamers 4 weeks ago:
Nice guide. I’m glad to see they mentioned GPU switching. It’s really underrated.
- Comment on Jaws 3 & Jaws: The Revenge to be released on 4K Ultra HD this summer, but we're still waiting on Jaws 19 9 months ago:
I’ve grown to like watching Dennis Quaid onscreen. It’s not that he’s an especially good actor, he just gives me that 80’s nostalgia vibe. The cocaine story is peak 80s.
- Comment on Dr. Pulaski Appreciation Post 9 months ago:
Renegade Cut had a pretty good video about her. piped.video/watch?v=HC4K1mx0SPQ. I was mostly wrong about her. I didn’t realize they became friends later. That’s a pretty big arc for only one season.

Awesome. I never heard of Kino Lorber before they announced Monk on Blu-Ray, but now I’m a fan.
- Comment on Easter 2007: B.J. Novak Proves Cadbury Eggs Are Getting Smaller 11 months ago:
I’m slightly pissed about the shrinkage, but really pissed that they don’t come in packages anymore (at least not where I live). It’s bad enough I have to scan my own groceries, but now I have to scan 8-12 individual eggs in a row. What’s next?
