I want to see character development that’s interesting. There is nothing interesting about Church Lady. No, that’s not entirely true- her relationship with the mayor is honestly interesting, and I’d like to see more of that.

Well, we do know that planets around other stars are abundant, and we also know that on Earth, it didn’t take too long for life to arise, which is what “easy” generally means in this context (if it were hard, there would have been many more “failures” in Earth’s history and thus, it would have taken longer for life to

We got that great scene, and then we got twenty minutes of Tulip and Church Lady. Ugh. I’ve been more forgiving of this show than some others, but that speed-bump was downright painful. I am not interested in seeing a relationship form between those two.

A follow up to Attack the Block would be a terrible idea. A collaboration between the director and many members of the original cast to create a new film with a similar style but a unique story- that’d be awesome.

This season’s new credits are just flat out cool

Harvey Dent will remember this.

It’d be interesting if we lived in a world where BeOS managed to find its niche, but it’s a pity that they were so hung up on the Internet of Things as its deployment model. “Your TV can run BeOS! Your phone can run BeOS! YOUR REFRIGERATOR WILL RUN BeOS!”

Vaguely similar, yes, but each application still lives in an independent window in a VDE. I’m talking about creating a single window that uses tabs where each tab is a different application.

That is nothing like what I described.

This is nothing like a tiling WM. I use tiling WMs from time to time. They’re cool. They’re not a tabbed window that contains multiple applications.

I’ve fiddled around, trying to hack that functionality into an extant window manager, but on Windows and macOS, it’s basically impossible. It should be doable in X, but that means interacting with X, which I avoid because it’s terrible.

Tabs in all apps seems like a really cool feature. My “killer app” that nobody’s ever really implemented (although BeOS kinda made some nods in that direction) would be the ability to combine windows from multiple, unrelated applications into a single multi-tab window, then save that workspace so that I can recall it

Oh, look at that, a new character that I get to watch die horribly.

I’ve also noticed that most of those manage to put the wheel directly in my eyeline to the instruments. Maybe I’m spoiled by my 2004 Saturn Ion (which has the instruments closer to the center of the dash), but these newfangled cars seem to want me to guess how fast I’m going.

I’ll say this: it doesn’t deserve the hate that it gets. It’s not great. It’s not even good. But it’s goofy and weird and… well, its positive attributes end there.

TDK is okay, and could probably stand as the best live-action Batman film, largely supported by Heath Ledger’s variation on the Joker. Mask remains the best Batman film.

Hey, Pacific Rim was about 90 minutes of robots punching giant monsters, and it was pretty great.

Really? I watched Transformers- the first one, the one some people inexplicably liked- and seriously questioned what I was doing with my life. It was a terrible, incoherent mess, and worse- it was boring. For a movie that was supposed to be robots punching each other for 90 minutes, they wasted a shit ton of time on

That’s impossible, because people who don’t love the Iron Giant obviously don’t have souls.

Why does this feel like a special-effects laden riff on The Cat from Outer Space. Which I absolutely loved as a kid, I’ll add.
