The Misses and I just finished the Maple Films cut of The Hobbit and we both agreed that is was SO much better as a single four-hour long film.

Still enjoying Pluribus, so I looked up some reviews on IMDb. A lot of complaints about being boring and the pacing. Maybe they have a point, but I'm just not wired to be bothered by it.

@weirdestate Exact opposite vibe, looks wonderful to me.

@rl_dane @dm I have a giant bag of leaves that I’ve been trying to get through for years, never noticed any bitter taste.

@alyx Yeah, I think they were a subsidiary of the Nova Robotics Corporation.

@coolboymew @MisterRogersSnapped @BasedLord I think that Dean Koontz book Phantoms was about that…

@rasterweb Congrats! Biking is cool in so many ways.

@mathias I have a couple of media displays in my house that run Devuan. I like it well enough.

@westerling I wish there was a good alternative. I set up a VM that ran the old desktop version for my parents before they retired. Not sure how long you can keep that up, I would ask your/their accountant. I’m on the subscription treadmill because everyone knows QB.

I really liked the Halo series and was wondering when season 3 was coming out...looks like it's going to be long time if ever. Shame.

Pluribus is looking good so far...

I like Comic Sans and I don't understand all the hate it amassed.

@rl_dane I think you’re right, I must have misremembered.

@rl_dane I've got a 50MB ZIP disk somewhere around here, but no drive. I do remember checking that and the data was garbage. CD's were such a game changer for storage capacity, hard to understand if you didn't live it.

After a mostly effortless data retrieval from a borderline abused 3.5” floppy (27 years old), I just found out that I can fit about half an hour of opus encoded audio on a disk. That is amazing!

Ugh, stayed up way too late re-watching Blade Runner 2049.

“The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
