Yep, this really should have pointed out that Lenovo has been the industry’s most egregious “SALE!” online retailer for well over a decade, where if you’re buying from their site, you have no idea what a laptop actually costs until you’re at the checkout screen. The list price is largely meaningless, and as you say,

This can be a little confusing.

Believe it or not, the plot actually gets somewhat interesting after about Episode 5.

Anyone who thinks of Chalamet as a generally cute and unthreatening on-screen presence will have those preconceptions blow up in a big, big way with Dune: Part Two. He goes dark, and it’s fantastic.

Sadly Pugh fares worst out of this quartet since her part is small and the character ends up being just a forgettable plot convenience.

As I’ve written before, it just really feels like this was pitched as a 2 hour movie with heavy supernatural elements that HBO decided to expand and graft onto an existing franchise, with not so good results.

Pizzolatto is a pretty arrogant guy who thinks he’s a genius - not uncommon in Hollywood - who uncommonly doesn’t try to filter this at all, which I suspect is one contributing factor why most critics were really rooting for Lopez to succeed since they grew tired of his act a long, long time ago. Being a jerk over

I suspect you may have missed that after what some felt was unjustified criticism of the first couple episodes, someone set up an entirely new subreddit, TDNightCountry, that made it a point to moderate the dogwhistling and was generally filled with positive comments about the show. It apparently became the the

Well, I liked it better than E3-5, although that’s not saying much.

So what I got out of the File 770 report:

Yep, this is the type of thing where institutional knowledge of a tedious but simple process gets lost when people leave, and then BOOM.

It’s unclear why United waited until this week to submit its exemption request for the A321neos.

It was reported that private jet landing slots in Vegas for this weekend were completely filled several months ago, so she’s almost certainly being driven from LA.

That’d be a first as the grifters at the NFL have never paid an artist appearance fee for the halftime show.

Huh?

This was perhaps the most frustrating episode of a frustrating show.

I only came across Fourth Wing in the last month - it showed up on a list of suggested ebooks when I’d checked something else out from the library - and after seeing 150k Amazon reviews I thought I should grab it just to see what the hype was about.

I could have made that clearer for folks who aren’t aware of how the Coast Guard operates (which is just about everyone reading the comment) but here’s the long form version of it that I didn’t want to write up.

I’m curious how they’re going to portray Stanton in Manhunt; by most accounts, he went off the deep end during it and the trial, even if not quite to the level portrayed in The Conspirator. Even Grant grew tired of him.

I’m not sure how this rates an A- when you conclude with this:
