The best movie about our reaction to 9/11 ever made. Amazingly, before it even happened.

Is Marvin running the jury room today? He’s the best.

The old UPN sci-fi show “Seven Days” did this. Part of the calculations for time travel were that they had to figure out exactly where in space the planet was seven days ago, and where the place they wanted to end up was. IIRC, this is part of the reason why they could only go back exactly seven days: the machinery…

The same “shake the camera then run it through stabilizing software” trick was used in Fight Club when Tyler Durden talked right to the camera in the ‘you are not your fucking khakis’ monologue.

HA! That bus parks on my street ALL THE TIME! Independence High School, in Lake Balboa/Van Nuys. It’s a high school using the logo.

He did not “make a clock”, or create “a homemade clock” either.

Exactly. Just last week, my IT guy advised me to turn OFF automatic updates. I had a problem connecting from home to the work servers, which require a custom software intermediary the company developed due to security concerns. I told him that I couldn’t connect, and the issue started after windows had run an update.…

I noticed this too. Wonder if the Audi was weaving around cars or if Goldie pulled off to the right? Probably an aggressive weaver.

Oregon is one of the most draconian states in the country for occupational licensing.

And if they really think

Exactly. And, if:

Or the classic story of “Yo la tengo”...

I doubt it was the picture at the top of this page that was the “indecent” issue. Looking at the magazine spread, I’d imagine it was the middle of the third page, which shows a drawing of the baby emerging from that magic hole between the mother’s legs that caused the stir.

NHL 94!

Tried it out years ago, but it wasn’t as plug-and-play as I needed. Might give it another shot when I’m back to adding new tables.

Easy to do, if you can build your own PC. That’s all that it is, a PC made to run just one program. You can also buy them pre-made in kits from $3k to $8k. Obviously cheaper to DIY if you don’t need all the bells and whistles, and especially if you can cannibalize an old PC to save costs on stuff like the power…

I used an old widebody cabinet from the 70s, which was almost exactly the size of a 46" TV screen lying down flat once I removed the plastic casing around it. I believe it was a “Paragon” which I got from a restorer who cannibalized all the usable parts after the owner had left it to rot. The body is as wide as the…

I have a nudge built into mine. I only have one, though, so it only works on the north-south axis. It would be fairly easy to build in a second one eventually to go east-west. I wired the old “tilt” sensor to detect nudges, but I’m still fine-tuning it, as it has a tendency to spring back-and-forth too much and result…

It’s not quite the same, of course, but it’s nice to be able to just play for 20/30 minutes without having to get up and go somewhere. I’ve put on just over 100 tables, so, there’s always something new, depending on my mood. Straight action game, fun game, puzzle game, whatever. It definitely is a niche video game…
