@ernest, we love you man, and we're grateful for the service you provide. But this site has needs that can't be met by one person: community mod approval, emergency status communication, spam management, and account management are just a few that immediately come to mind.

I know it has been rough lately, and I sincerely empathize. Internet hug You have a community of loyal people willing to help shoulder the burden if you let them, so please...if you truly want this place to be successful, let us help you. Hope you are okay, man.

  • I have but perhaps I should have phrased my title better. 99% of all songs by females are about relationships stuff and I think when it’s about eccentric stuff some guy in the band wrote the song. So, a few examples here and there does not invalidate my point. Most songs by females are about relationships.

  • Omglol

  • You're 100% correct, and it's kinda sad, really... for so many members of a generation to be so consistently and relentlessly stupid toxic that its name becomes synonymous with "douchebag." What a fuckin accomplishment.

  • Not watching, I cut the cord to avoid commercials. But OTA + antenna , as others said, is a solid way to watch network content for free if you can get a good signal.

  • How much frozen human shit has that mountain accumulated since people started climbing it for fun? Can somebody do the math on that? I feel like it has potential for a really shitty trivia question. Like, for Shitty Jeopardy! or something. JFC, I am baked.

    @FlyingSquid omg I didn't realize it was your post. Hi! Ok I'm gonna put the bowl down

  • lol you should post this in Ten Forward

    New Nightmare (1994) ⭐ 6.4 | Fantasy, Horror, Mystery

    Originally released as Wes Craven's New Nightmare in 1994, this movie was sort of a warmup in meta horror before Craven directed Scream two years later. It's arguably the best of the seven A Nightmare on Elm Street sequels and assumes a more serious, darker tone. If you're looking for that cheese established in the sequels (which Craven didn't direct, by the way), it ain't here.


    Runtime: 1h 52m

    imdb synopsis: A demonic force has chosen Freddy Krueger as its portal to the real world. Can Heather Langenkamp play the part of Nancy one last time and trap the evil trying to enter our world?

    Streaming availability: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/wes-cravens-new-nightmare

  • flooppoolf mentioned you can get a second opinion, and I'd like validate that idea.

    The diagnosis involved me and my mom answering questions about the presence of ADHD symptoms now and in my early childhood (5-12 yo).

    So. My thinking is that you weren't tested for ADHD, you were given a survey to assess symptoms. Symptoms are important to recognize, but they don't always paint a complete picture of what's really going on.

    For my diagnosis, I had to take a barrage of tests that took 3 hours to complete. The testing session was comprised of several timed tests on reflexes, short term memory retention, attention span, logic, vocabulary, math, and an IQ test. The last three might have been part of the IQ test, now that I think about it. This was a couple of years ago so I know I'm forgetting a lot of details, but it was intense. The report I got later with the diagnosis was huge and contained a ton of data and confirmed yes, I have ADHD. So yeah, ADHD (I have the inattentive, not the hyperactive type) is quantifiable.

    For what it's worth, when I was a child I also didn't have the typical symptoms of ADHD. It is possible to have ADHD and exhibit no outward symptoms when you're a kid, it presents differently in people for a variety of reasons, I was told. It only became obvious when I was an adult. That's just my experience, anyway.

  • I get the criticism about production, plot, and dialogue decisions. I mean, I agree on quite a few of them. But a good chunk of the detractors are on the hate bandwagon because they just can't stand women/minorities getting representation, and those dumbfucks need to GTFO. It's Trek, for fuck's sake. Yeah, Discovery is different, but I still dig the show.

    Stand together

  • I think you should spend more time using AI programming tools. That would let you see how primitive they really are in their current state and learn how to leverage them for yourself.

    I agree, sosodev. I think it would be wise to at least be aware of modern A.I.'s current capabilities and inadequacies, because honestly, you gotta know what you're dealing with.

    If you ignore and avoid A.I. outright, every new iteration will come as a complete surprise, leaving you demoralized and feeling like shit. More importantly, there will be less time for you to adapt because you've been ignoring it when you could've been observing and planning. A.I. currently does not have that advantage, OP. You do.

  • Hey fuckface, that's my friend you're talking to. Take your hate speech bullshit somewhere else and go fuck yourself.

  • What the fuck? There's...what? I played this game for a short bit and thought it was great, but I figured I got the gist of the game and never felt the urge to resume. I was still outside, so I clearly stopped before it started getting good. Fuck. I'm going back in, thank you for posting this.

    Kedi (2016) ⭐ 7.6 | Documentary

    1h 19m

    imdb synopsis: "A profile of an ancient city and its unique people, seen through the eyes of the most mysterious and beloved animal humans have ever known, the Cat."

    Streaming availability: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/kedi

    It's a nice low key documentary about cats and their effect on the residents of Istanbul. It's really well shot, and it goes without saying cat owners would find it most interesting. You don't have to be a cat person to appreciate it, though. Yeah, it's a fascinating take on Istanbul urban life, with little slice of life stories here and there. Also, cats!

    Slow burn western set in the Edwardian Era (1906), best if you avoid the imdb synopsis and any potential spoiler sources and go in blind.
