My dad was a credits watcher. But when the movie ended in the theater, guess how many people were sitting their watching the credits? If you didn’t count me being stuck there bored out of my mind in most instances, it was well under 1%.

The millenials are the kids of the boomers. They will grow up being the same kind of assholes their parents were. 

Did you watch the video? I did, and I’d have to go on faith that it’s heckling rather than someone just making noise when they weren’t supposed to.

Yes, and the criminal trial is bound by beyond a reasonable doubt as a standard. The family restaurant is likely owned by multiple members of the family and is not seen as an asset of the convicted given that for the rest of the family, they can likely make a claim of ignorance to the crime if they were not involved…

Nah they aren’t. Spent many summers during high school and college as a painter. The only things we taped out were things with more complicated edges that couldn’t be easily removed or replaced and floor molding. The floor molding was taped not to get a good edge but to protect the molding from inadvertent…

Generally, no, not significantly. Better speakers won’t make dialogue more clear and that’s because the original audio is mixed like poop for hearing the dialogue.

Because chrome turned into bloated sketchy garbage where the experience seems to be a lot better if you go to a non google browser using it. I tend to use opera at the moment and refer to it as chromium the good parts version. 

Email is asynchronous. There is no way it gives you all the info you need faster than an interactive conversation unless you get very well formed requests. In which case you are supremely lucky. Also unless you run your slack instance like poop/like a miser, you have an archive of what was said.

You should do work stuff at work, and use work resources for work. In the past you occasionally had to violate that for the purposes of being a functioning employee and use the phone to make an appointment with your doctor, mechanic, etc. With the magic of the smartphone, you have both data and voice wherever you go.…

Well, since WB did (is still doing?) a move of their film archive to digital with 4k scans of everything, they have shifted form worrying about how long celluloid will last to having to worry about migrating form digital storage medium to digital storage medium. They really don’t care about your feeling on books. They…

I’m going to back of the envelope this to try and understand the reasoning here.

Honest question here, why does the mountain bike test footage look like hot garbage no matter what? I mean the factory supplied mandatory wing suit video deosn’t look super crisp either, but it’s WAY better than your demo. Is it jsut that hard to get quality output from it?

If you find the time war thing interesting, I suggest the sarah connor chronicles. It was all about how weaponizing time travel gets really complicated really fast. 

I have seen exactly one on the road. I already knew it was still fugly in the flesh, and it’s still fugly in the flesh and moving.

You might like opera. It indicates which tab is playing the stupid noise and has a mute tab option on the tabs making noise.

The only time I got screwed by an overbooked hotel, I had exactly that happen. I was going to be late due to transportation issues called them up and told them I’d pay the balance over the phone to keep the room. They assured me everything was fine and that wasn’t necessary. Got there about 8pm instead of the expected…

Manual gas pumps, siphons, commercial electric pumps with genertators, battery operated pumps, etc. There are tons of gas pumps that work in massive black outs.

They can be called the same thing and in the same place, but it would be nice if they got some high DPI love and some tweaking for touch.

nah, most casino games operate on a much smaller house margin than this one. 

You could do a really good in depth article on all the various productivity and creativity apps.
