Ehh.. it’s smarter tracking that’s for sure. More cinematic? Technically, i guess, slightly. It’s composition could use work.  It’s not going to do better than a camera guy operating a drone that knows what the action is supposed to be.

If they start hiding data, it’s probably to cover their ass or line their pockets. That being said, I’ve been a contractor doing contract work, and I’m not seeing how this has anything to do with them being employees vs. contractors. The taking and leaving of the fare is what matters. If I tell you when and where you…

A $30 bacon grease container. With a rebated lip. Unless you use a LOT of bacon grease cooking, good luck with that not being a $30 disposable bacon grease container.

I really didn’t like TLJ. Rose was likable, but her insertion into the film was part of the really bad writing and film making that made it a turd of a movie. She was also a key player in the 70 minute waste of time in the middle of the movie.

And there’s DC’s big problem. Most of their bad guys are garbage. If your bad guy is garbage your hero looks lame. That’s why batman is the best IP. He has the joker, and the joker is a great bad guy. 

Yes, because the very different joker is doing well, it means that every movie having a giant flaming cgi monster at the end is the way to go.

how is a digital download or license to stream from AMC a value add? I cna get the same thing from apple who is sitting on many billions of dollars cash or amazon who is broadly diversified. Or... I could get it from AMC which is trying to find something really heavily related to their theater business to rely on when…

You don’t see why it would now?

Also for perspective, the renewables energy market in the us is getting 6.7 billion in subsidies on a ~ $0.75 trillion dollar market. The fossil fuel business is getting $10.7 billion on a ~$5 trillion market.

Renewables have issues with being cost competitive. But once again, it isn’t necessarily “Straight cash, homie” as you like to put it. Thus it tends to be ignored. The biggest issue is the real estate. Not just the quality of life for those you build the stuff near, but the space needed to meet power needs. Wind…

The fundamental flaw in your logic is that you think individual consumption isn’t related to industrial consumption. Agriculture is 10% of emissions in the US. You think that isn’t because the individual buys food?

$650 doesn’t sound too high... for a laptop. That’s a cheap laptop. This ins’t a laptop capable of broad general purpose computing. It’s a chrome book, and that is pricey for a chrome book. And for a chrome book, there’s a lot of competition for about $100 less that’s real nice. It’s also pretty pricey compared to a…

Neither will spy on you less really when using the devices. The difference likely comes in how they can attach that information to you and combine it with other data sources. Both can take your connection information and use it to mine other data on you. If you have other apple devices and partake of icloud in any…

They knew it was a wear item. They should not have soldered it to the board. 

Cracked bitcoin privacy? There’s no privacy. It’s literally the most traceable currency in existence. Anonymity comes only when nobody ever gets caught with their wallet. If anyone associated with your wallet’s transactions gets burned, you go with them unless you can cash out before getting snagged.

next thing you know, you are crashing the enterprise every damn movie.

While I was making less than $89k, I manged to sock away about $72k saving up to buy a home in a little over three years. And that was while being head of household and paying rent in place not all that cheap to live. Granted, I did some consulting on the side to get there, but I wasn’t killing myself with work or…

Real markup or bullshit.

Fewer and fewer? I wish. No other brand seems to have quite the corner on the market for assholes running effectively open headers. 

I’m kind of with you. I’d like it if commuting hours were reserved for light vehicles about the weight and cost of a cheap side-by-side. Double the road capacity, and who cares if they are limited to like 45mph. I’d kill for hitting 45mph for more than the current 7.6 seconds on my hour commute.
