A newer one: Strange Darling

Good movie

I actually finished this recently, and to me, the old abilities were almost completely irrelevant. There are legitimately times where you might think that wonderwing is the solution to something, but arbitrarily is programmed to not work.

I still really like BT, and even prefer it over the first in some aspecta. However, it is a perfect example of how powerups were implemented poorly back then (and even today). Instead of powerups enhancing the core gameplay loop, they are just keys to solve shallow puzzles. "Oh, there's a crack in the wall? Shoot it with a grenade egg." This is why Mario games have much more emphasis on evolving gameplay through level design rather than character abilities.

It's very popular in scientific computing

Tbh I just thought it was legitimately a low effort monster design just lazily thrown in the top right of the poster. What indicates it is AI?

Devil's advocate take: was the phone app the only way to ease your anxiety, or was it just an option that was recommended due to the trend of trying to have our phone do everything?

Eh, I think it's personally the weakest out of the franchise. I still enjoyed Burn, but I enjoyed Rise a lot more, especially the final act. Rise hit a perfect balance in tone, whereas I actually left the theaters after Burn feeling like the "fun" wasn't really there. I still need to rewatch 2013 to make sure it's as good as I remember.

The best way to "stand up for yourself" when a company that sells a luxury product is to not buy said product. In which case this tariff nonsense doesn't affect you. More people were affect by the increase in the cost of groceries and gas than the cost of a Switch 2.

IMO I think it's weird to focus specifically on Nintendo. The American government basically screwed over its populace and a ton of foreign companies (less sympathy for the former though). I don't think it's realistic to expect these companies to reimburse companies, because logistically it'd be a nightmare. The only way I can imagine consumers getting their money back is if the government used the tarrif money to pay a portion of the federal income tax for its citizens, ideally the lower tax vracket. Unfortunately that won't happen.

You can use regular dish soap on a cast iron. The big no-nos are soaking for an extended period of time and not hand-drying after washing

"operating at a loss" =/= "low revenue"

That is a much stronger argument, except Israel is hardly ever portrayed as a "hero." The Bible portrays Israel as a nation that is constant going astray and making the wrong decisions.

 

Anyone have recommendations for hardware to run Moonlight on a 4K TV? I want to play games on my PC, but I don't want to isolate myself in the office. I imagine a mini-PC would be more appropriate than something like a RPi, but does anyone have specific recs? I have never really bought a device like this. My laptop is not suited for the task so "use an old laptop" isn't a good rec for me really. And yes this relevant to linux since the server and client will be running linux. ;)

 

I spend a lot of time creating system diagrams for presentations. I always use Inkscape to draw these diagrams. However I ran into a scenario where I wanted to animate them. The animations I'm looking for are dead simple. I want to be able to fade in, fade out, and slide basic shapes. The way I worked around it this time was by using PowerPoint. However, is there an FOSS alternative I could use? I would probably need to also export the animation into a gif or some other platform agnostic format. Bonus points for something that can use the images I draw in Inkscape.

 

I'm using a Fellow Stag and a metal V60 with a fabric filter. I do a 1:16 ratio (16g of coffee and 256g of water). Generally I'll place the V60 on the Stag while it brings the water up to a boil in order to heat it up. Then I'll saturate the fabric filter with the hot water. I'll use 212F water, but after pouring the water over the grounds, my instant read thermometer will read 195F. It seems weird that despite doing everything in my power to preheat all the equipment, the water drops a lot in temperature as soon as it hits the grounds. Any tips to tackle this problem?
