Wow, he could’ve had a lucractive career playing high schoolers on television well into his 60’s.

Well, duh. I’ve seen movies, they write with paint brushes, why would they need pens?

This movie has long been a guilty pleasure of mine.

“Chefs do that!”

M-4 / M-16 same difference. Unless it’s chambered in something other than 5.56 they all shoot the same. And yeah, it’s nothing like 7.62. As you are aware… you KNOW it when you’re firing 7.62!

Based on the picture it looks like he vowed to never take another shit for the rest of his life.

He said an AR-15 had too much recoil? Is he made of tissue paper, or did they mod it to fire artillery shells? Christ, one of the demos they did for us at our first live fire in basic training was having one of our fellow soldiers hold an M-16 stock UP TO HIS NUTS and fire it downrange to show just how little recoil they had. I’m not kidding, I personally witnessed this. I have also put at least 20,000 rounds through M-16’s and AR-15’s in my life. They don’t kick. Seagal is a pussy.

I solve it by paying way too much for a block of static IPs.

For the government, it’s always worth it as long as the funding is flowing. After all, it’s not like they are footing the bill. You and I are paying for them to spy on us.

That’s old style thinking. If that type of matching isn’t already automated and running, it will be soon. They’ll click a button and find you everywhere if you’ve left enough breadcrumbs, so there won’t be any lengths to go to. And as someone who has gone through the cybersec exercises of hardening browsers against fingerprinting, knows what VPN can do and more importantly what it CAN’T do, etc, I can say there are precious few people in the world going to the lengths required to stay truly anonymous. It basically has to become your top priority and constant focus if you want to be successful.

What programmer in their right mind uses / instead of -?

I use the delimiter when writing out log files when I want hour or minute in the logfile name. SantaChimneyLog_20241225-0312.txt. Otherwise yeah it just gets left off.

It could have. People would have said the same thing about Marvel if they knew what was cooking up in the mid 2000’s.

They just lack the talent. As Dem Bosain pointed out, they can’t even pick the characters people want to see for spinoffs.

For posterity.

No reason for the wayback machine to do all the heavy lifting around here!

No there is no middle ground because the wack jobs have moved their side so far from where it should be that ‘middle ground’ is still deep in their fantasy land.

People have had enough. This is just starting.

They were going to do a page like this for Azure but realized that page would be larger than the rest of Wikipedia.

It really was. After the first chase and the phone booth smash I was not sure what I was watching, but by the time Neo meets Trinity at the club I was hooked. And the scene in the skyscraper lobby had me picking my jaw up off the floor.

It’s one of the few movies I actually have memories of going to see, like instead of just remembering the plot of the movie I remember the events leading up to it, where I ate dinner, looking at the poster and deciding to go inside and watch it, etc. And I remember my reactions. It was that intense, and certainly a lot of that came from not knowing WHAT to expect.

The only other movie theater experiences in my memory with that intensity are watching Saving Private Ryan the first time (obvious) and Return of the Jedi, because there was a Darth Vader at the theater and I was super psyched that me and my sister got our picture taken with him!

It did happen back in the day when a lot of movie theaters were attached to a mall. I actually saw The Matrix that way, wandering through the mall with my girlfriend after dinner, and the poster looked interesting to both of us. Hadn’t heard a thing about it. That was a cool experience.

Once theaters shifted to a destination unto themselves, you really don’t see the ‘wander into a movie’ thing anymore.

You ought to edit your comment above because it reads like you’re telling people those things are dangerous.

every hour was amateur hour!

lol, I am stealing this!

Enough said. You have my sympathy.

That means your mail admins sucked at their job.
