I have no clue what the movie was. All I know is that my grandmother was watching it while I was in the same room. I remember being too bored to pay attention at 4 years old or so. Except when I looked over at the screen and saw a man put a gun to his head he pull the trigger. The music went silent after and we got an areal shot of the blood spreading. It left such an impression it’s one of my earliest memories.

Lol, I’m not from the US. Just following US politics closely and doing what I can from a distance.

But yeah, US „left“ is more right than most country’s “right“. But nearly all of Europe is going through a political right-shift too, so who knows how long that’ll last.

Yep, I can’t stress enough how much I want every single one of the people investigated. And if they participated I want them to be punished. Heck, if it turned out that someone I currently admire and support did something horrible I’d want to know even more so I can stop supporting people like that.

I expect a bunch of people and rich donateurs from both sides of the isle. This is a rich pedophiles (and their friends) vs everyone else type of deal and not a left vs right thing.

At the very least the person the finger in the stock image belongs to

Agreed. I wouldn’t want any of them killed. I’d be really entertained by a max-income type of idea where they have to make it without all of the luxuries they are used to. And especially for the people who never had to work (besides bossing others around) it would be so fun to see them in some average job, or even walking into a supermarket finding out what food costs.

The machines probably yes. The little electric motors will probably need replacing eventually though.

They aren’t even my oldest machines. Just the oldest ones that use electricity

I have an electric singer sewing machine from 1964 and another one from around 1950. Amazing how well they work.

Millennial here. I don’t miss being young at all. Sure my body is aging, but it doesn’t make up for how much better I’m doing mentally and emotionally. Also I’m grateful every day that I’m personally sort of financially ok, unlike a lot of our generation and the ones after. Helps being childfree though, because having children would be extremely expensive.

Don’t diss manatees like that. They are giant floating ocean potatoes with a temperament somewhere between snorlax and a puppy.

Chances are that this is for something like a petting zoo. The farmers that raise them for meat don’t treat them well enough to get them a wash and a blowout at the local salon.

Genuinely don’t know if I qualify. I tend to score pretty high on the tests because my brain “gets” the exact kind of logic they usually test. What is more important though is that the tests suck in so many ways that it makes the results basically useless. Also I have yet to meet anyone who brags about their IQ score who happens to be anyone worth knowing.

They’d need to pay me a lot of money to get me to even consider joining Mensa.

The only thing that gives me some satisfaction when I read anything about this horrific bully is that there’s no way she’s happy. People who live a happy and fulfilled life just don’t do this kind of stuff. I doubt any outside force will ever adequately punish her for all the evil she has caused but at least I rest a bit easier being sure that her mind is a sad place to be indeed.

Hm. That’s worth considering, yeah. But I want to get away from Adobe. I dislike just about every single change they made to any of their programs in the last 5 years… And any change their made to their business model in the last 15 years or so.

Same here. Games and general office tasks work flawlessly on Linux. I currently only launch into windows for the Adobe suite and some other image editing apps (by Topaz Labs) that I already have licenses for but that won’t run on Linux.

So far the alternatives I’ve found aren’t nearly as powerful. However I’m determined to uninstall windows by the time my licenses run out 9 or so months from now.

More than 6GB per minute in 4K? Because that already seemed like a lot.

Alright, fair. Noted. Just because their marketing calls it ProRes RAW doesn’t mean it is true RAW. I didn’t look into it that much.

What I do know though and what my point was about is that it makes big files fast. Files of a type and scale you can’t effectively do anything useful with on an iPhone itself. So if you want to edit them (and why else would you shoot in that format?) then step 1 is that you want them off the phone and on a platform that can deal with them. And for that transfer speed matters.

There is at least 1 use case for it: some of the newer iPhones can shoot raw format video. Apple calls this ProRes. It is also possible to take those videos as large as 4K. This comes out to about 6GB per minute of video taken.

Imagine someone like a YouTuber decided to take a couple of 20-30 minute clips. Yeah, I wouldn’t want to wait for wireless transfer on that. Especially not if that is a regular thing someone does.

Yeah, this is definitely just someone who got told (possibly even by a band member of Rage Against the Machine themselves) what the songs and the band are actually about. Doubt a single song will ever be made.
