Former health IT employee here, and there are a couple of things that I’d add.

The lid should ALWAYS BE DOWN when you flush, otherwise you’re spraying crap all over the bathroom.

Don’t do that.

I’ll give the guy credit: This is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever read.

Well, there’s nothing conservative Christians like better than feeling persecuted. It brings you closer to The Big Guy if you suffer like Him.

My reaction was similar. It went from “I’d appreciate it if this didn’t suck for the sake of the genre” (I like Tolkien but am not deeply into its fandom) to “this isn’t bad” to “it’s pretty good” to watching the conclusion and being genuinely surprised that they had somehow - beyond any reasonable expectation -

SG1 is still my favourite show of all time. I have watched it all the way through countless times now, show me 3 seconds of an episode I can tell you exactly what happens. All I want is for that universe to continue. To me, it was the last great sci-fi show that nailed the tone perfectly. It had that “look” of classic

It seems like arresting the staff, especially the pilot, for manslaughter is ridiculous.

And a good ad blocker.

.... and yet it took me something like 4 or 5 guesses to get that one, because I had just watched BladeRunner: 2049 just the night before, which starts with almost that exact cityscape. Got it wrong, of course, which made me doubt myself, so I held off on guessing the original.

Yeah, I’m not great at these but that shot is incredibly iconic to me

It seems plainly obvious TikTok should be booted from the Play Store and Apple store. It’s unacceptable that customer data could be in the hands of a surveillance state, like China.

Making a baby?

I don’t think that’s unwritten. I’m fairly certain that’s a law.

Turn on your headlights at night, for crying out loud! It’s dark, turn them on!! Other people need to see your car.

Smack yourself in the head while repeating these words: “Never let anyone borrow your phone”

Gives me a great idea for a horror flick.

Counterpoint - audiophiles love two things: spending money on equipment and shitting on other peoples’ equipment.

I guess being in that “Weapon of Choice" music video helped him walk without rhythm.

He’s so successful playing a kid that I forget he’s almost thirty. I found the storylines he was given in Sex Education were often kind of one note but he still pulled them off very well. So I’m definitely interested to see how he does with this.

in practice i don’t use this. I have a large library and i’ve found the last 3 times i’ve wanted to search for where a movie is i’ve found myself sitting at my computer already so i just typed justwatch. Side note: not a single one was available for streaming on any streaming service except for purchase. So useless
