It's an easy movie to watch, which makes it enjoyable for me. Everything else in life takes a lot of energy, so when I want to watch a movie over doing something else, I just want something that I can zone out to.

Same reason I watch a Will Ferrell movie and like them (like the one where he voiced a dog)

What is causing that? Anything I can do to offset that when my children will be old enough for it to be a problem?

I spend more time with my kids because I don't want them to live what I went through and it's probably the same for many men.

You are probably right that today, people ask themselves if they want kids, and why or why not. While our parents had more pressure to follow that life style, and our grand-parents had a priest coming to their home to tell them it was time to make another baby.

Maybe don't throw your whistleblowers in a jail and let them rot for life, and you will avoid defections to another country.

Can you blame the guy to not want to die in a dark cell for showing the world that your own government is keeping a lot of tabs on you without your knowledge?

He tried to go to other countries, but none of them wanted to take him in except Russia because of what he knew.

So it's either die in a cell in the US, or live a somewhat free man in Russia.

The choice is clear.

So demand that your government do better and get behind the people that shows you how your government fucks you over.

I tend to add is to booleans toreally differentiate between a method name and a status.

def open_file_dialog(self):
    self.dialog_file_is_open = True
    pass

That way, it's easier for my dumb brain to spot which is which at a glance.

The horror of the human body. Hide it, seal it and be ashamed of it.

The issue is that there aren't low cost cars anymore. Everything is over 25k and the used cars market is insane.

So yeah, no shit we want cheaper cars.

I was watching a long video on chromecast today and I had ads every three minutes or so. That's a two hours video. The amount of ads is disgusting.

YouTube is unwatchable without an ad blocker.

You missed another point : companies shedding employees and replacing them by "AI" bots.

As always, the technology is a great start in what's to come, but it has been appropriated by the worst actors to fuck us over.

Might be time for some anti-trust lawsuits to make them pipe down.

It sucks because it should be a good thing that it replaces labor. We could have more time to be humans.

But instead, less labor = more money for the rich and more misery for the rest
