Just another reason to burn down the data centers.

Oh no! Sorry, I assumed it was just the imdb for the original Toxic Avenger!

If you are into 80s style "horror/action" movies, I liked The Toxic Avenger. It has lots of very over the top violence and gore, but in a... funny way? like so obviously fake that it's not disgusting. I'm not sure if it is, but it felt like it's based on a comic book.

Thanks for the heads-up on Helium. I have been using Firefox all these years, but it's been getting leaky and bloated. Helium works great so far.

The last thing I saw in theaters was The Mandalorian (and Grogu). I liked it, but it's just basically a long string of spectacle that gets bigger and more explosive as it goes. No Shakespeare here. I also saw Tron: Ares at the theater. AND I LIKED IT. I LOVED IT. Especially when they went to Tron ...

I so wish they would ditch annual releases. Release a new version when new tech requires a new kernel. Not before. The current method reeks of boardroom gimmickry.

Under the Skin - Scarlet Johansson
It's streaming for free, but I forgot which channel, Should not be hard to find.
Kinda weird. The story is told with stunning visuals and. magnificent photography, and about two paragraphs of dialogue.It's one of those movies that demands your attention; you're ...

My friend had a Vectrex. It was fun...the Speed Freak/Night Driver clone was one of the few "wow, real 3D" games you could play at home (along with Battlezone/Tailgunner on the Vectrex) at the time. I don't know if I'f pay $500-600 for one since there are well made emulators that duplicate the ...

I've always been a bit confused about ffmpeg. It seems like it kind of exists as a stand-alone app, but also needs to be installed in order for other programs to function properly?

I'm guessing the thing I experience as a stand-alone app might really be one of many ffmpeg front ends a person ...

BTW, Jehanumm, I love all of those acts. Castle Rat is amazing, Claypool-Lennon is out of this world, and Angine de Poitrine is from another dimension.

I could never watch any of the animated series...other than the ORIGINAL 2D Clone Wars. Okay, Ewoks...no, but droids...maybe.

This is why I refer to it as artificial stupidity.

^ Jealous. The Cliff House in San Francisco had one of those old mechanical arcades (relocated from Playland following its 1972 closure) and it was an absolute fantasy land for me. I haven't been back there since before the 2004 renovation. Wikipedia says the arcade has been moved to Fisherman's ...

BTW, this is the last song and music video I co-wrote and produced with my cousin Jesse Dalton. We both had seen during the pandemic how musicians were starting to produce recordings remotely on the internet and thought we'd give it a try. This is what we came up with: https://youtu.be/YSiN5VbY1h0 ...

Sinners is like "From Dusk Till Dawn" meets "Killers of the Flower Moon."

Sinners.

Just got back.

Very much recommend if you haven’t seen it yet.

Oh yeah, Sinners was the bomb. Nice to see both Sinners (all-time nominations record, only won four) and Frankenstein do well at the Oscars.

My favorite commute record has been the latest Body Count album, Merciless. That's Ice T's heavy metal band, the one with Comfortably Numb on it (my favorite music video of the 21st century, featuring David Gilmour):

I installed a pinball emulator on my BootCamp drive to play all my favorites from the distant and recent past: Xenon, Space Invaders, Gorgon, Haunted House, Flash Gordon, High Speed, Pinbot, Funhouse, Mars Attacks, and Addams Family. It isn't quite the same without the tactile feedback of a real ...

Hello everybody! Glad to see you all again. TBH I found the loss of these forums left a gaping hole in my life for sometimes...back toward the turn of the century, there were a number of good forums, but they either got worse or fell by the wayside. I can not and will not use reddit. I even tried ...
