Well, there’s no reason to put that in the client- it just makes the client way more complicated for no good reason. The client is sending requests to the server, so it makes sense to do that logging on the server anyway.

Probably. It’s possible- but unlikely- that a previous request you sent was still sitting in the cache and might have been there. I have no idea what their cache expiration policy might look like, but I imagine that it’s not terribly long. There’s no reason to.

Where though? At the cache layer? Or at the backend? Usually, the backend is where you’re doing the heavy logging, because the cache is just that- a temporary storage so that you don’t have to take a trip to the back end on every request.

Yes, I’m aware of the history: but Persians are “white” by any skin-tone based standard. Look at their art through history. Look at their impact on Western culture. Hell, we could make the argument that Western Christianity owes a great deal to cross-pollination from Zoroastrianism.

Shit, I’d watch the hell out of a Philipino produced Wolverine film that ties in with Philippines folklore.

I know why they won’t tell you how many people accessed other people’s accounts: they don’t know. Do you really think they’re putting any audit logging in the caching layer? Nobody does that. Why on Earth would you?

Guys, can I point out something? “Iran” is the Farsi pronunciation of “Aryan”. Iranians are “white”. Oh, sure, Persians have been conquered by Arabs enough times that they’ve picked up a darker skin tone, by and large- like Sicilians and Spaniards. Who are also “white”.

The difference is that if they stopped making Doctor Who tomorrow, it wouldn’t make one whit of difference in my life. Or if th

It’s not my behavior, it’s my label. I like the things I like. I’m hardly a “fan” though. If there’s one thing I’ve learned about liking things like, say, Star Trek: Hell is other Star Trek fans. Or Doctor Who fans. God, spare us the Whovians. I’ve got a fucking Tom Baker scarf, and I can’t tolerate Whovians.

Well, that’s just false. The only movie that was about spectacle was the first one- and that was only because they didn’t have time to edit the spectacle down. As a result, easily the best of the original films- TWOK- was shot on a TV show budget. The closest they got to spectacle was a CGI planet destruction…

This is why I don’t consider myself a “fan” of anything. I like older versions of Trek (TOS being by preferred flavor). I have no interest in NuTrek, because I’m not just following a brand name, nor do I particularly want more Star Trek. I have enough.

Trekkies have already complained as much as they can about NuTrek.

Batman:TAS gave us Harley Quinn, René Montoya, and cemented Mr. Freeze as a tragic villain.

Fun story: I had a job once. That’s not the story. I was working for a coked-out lunatic who read business magazines and thought that if he did everything Southwest airlines did, he’d be successful. Never mind the fact that the company was in the IT industry, and thus the business had no similarities with Southwest.

every hero is just some variant of Gwen Stacy, aren’t we?

True, but at some point, we will likely be building helium factories which- as a lovely byproduct- produce lots of energy.

Hunh. I’ve seen exactly one movie on these lists- Mad Max. The Martian and What We Do in the Shadows are on my to-watch-list. It Follows is on the, “if I’m bored, at some point” list.

More and more, I’m finding the editing is letting the show down. In crisis moments, characters move to entirely different parts of the set between shots (the airlock closing sequence in specific). It may be stylistic- like shaky-cam, they’re trying to disorient the audience during tense moments, but I don’t like it.

The one that really stood out to me was when Miller was accepting the bribe. They did an insert of the coins switching hands, but it didn’t feel like an actual insert- it felt more like some sort of video collage. I wasn’t even sure those were coins, it flicked by so fast. And because of that, the bit with the air…

It’s not even the scenes themselves, though. Like in a single scene, they throw in these awkward cuts that throw off the rhythm of the scene and confuse me as to what the scene’s about.
