@brendanjudge @S___Elliott Pretty much the same with fight club. I remember being excited when I saw the book and realized the movie was based on it. Was expecting it to be more and better. Instead some names were changed.

@S___Elliott No Country For Old Men literally filmed the book as if it was the script
What a retarded take

Movies are that are better than the book:
No Country For Old Men
Goodfellas
The Godfather
Strangers On A Train

@HeidiBriones My wife would be fine. She’d be mad at me for leaving but she’d be perfectly safe.

@FirepowerUnited I think it’s cuz the euroweenies kept it for so long, we saw the light immediately and nearly everything of consequence switched.

@GreaterIdaho Not quite. M114 was “the will of the (brainwashed, stupid) people”. But an evil evil law
English
Elon Musk gets it. The will of the people of Eastern Oregon is to separate from Oregon and join Idaho. It is undemocratic for Western Oregon to hold us captive and the federal government has an obligation to step in on our behalf.
Elon Musk@elonmusk
We don’t live in a democracy if our elected leaders fail to implement the will of the people
English
“Will of the people” is bullshit. The people aren’t always right. They passed m114 which violates all sorts of constitutional rights.

@reflexarms This one hits me a little harder.
In my mind, Chuck Norris was immortal. Dude was going to be there to roundhouse kick the universe back into action when it uses up all its energy.

Oh no.
No no no no....

@NickJFreitas @RandPaul Now that we have air superiority, maybe we drop crates of m4s, m240s, and lots of ammo out of c17s all over the country?

You guys can be mad at Sen Paul all day long, but he is not wrong that it will have to be the Iranian people that take charge and overthrow the regime. This will not be another nation building exercise by the US.
I want them to do it! I have supported this effort. But the reality is the window is closing.

Disgusting. How long until Iranians rise up and reclaim their country . . .

@TheAliceSmith I know one that used to work in tech. He never gave away his $ to the unfortunate - he smoked it

If Marxists believed their own rhetoric, they would either start a business to create wealth for the poor, or start a commune to share their property with each other.
They do neither.
Their rhetoric is a cover for envy and resentment.

@dickipedia_ @Lensbubbles @zhao_dashuai And yet there are reports of an f35 making an emergency landing due to damage
English
@reflexarms @Lensbubbles @zhao_dashuai It’s a simple search you can do takes you five seconds and that idk but really nothing is ever 100 percent effective but this video still screams fake
English
From the last frames of the F-35 being hit by Iranian air defense.
It looks like some shrapnel got into the air intake and damaged the engine, but the airframe looked largely intact.
The important thing here is not whether a F-35 was shot down, it was the fact that Iran's air defense was able to detect, track, lock onto and shoot and damage a F-35.
This alone is a form of deterrence, forcing the US to continue using expensive standoff munitions with their non-stealth aircraft and avoid using F-35 with impunity.
English
@dickipedia_ @Lensbubbles @zhao_dashuai you keep saying that, plz provide evidence. Also, is the system 100% effective?
English
@Lensbubbles @zhao_dashuai The f35 still has the capability to detect ir/optical munitions

@Strangeland_Elf @MorlockP Mine grew up eating real food. So did my dad. Course they grew up dirt ass poor on a farm.

“Our grandparents were eating real food!”
Not sure how old your grandparents are but I’m pretty sure a large portion of our grandparents were cooking everything in crisco and margarine.

@wtfcetialpha5 @Ur_a_Smartass_C Good info, no head shots.
English
@Ur_a_Smartass_C Veterinarian here- I would have done same. Be careful not to hit the skull... the aerosolized brain tissue is infective.
English
It had rabies, which is 99% fatal. I would have shot it with a lot worst than a 9mm.

Amerika’da bir vahşi yaşam görevlisi, kuduz olduğu tespit edilen rakunu 9 el ateş ederek durdurdu. Kadın görevlinin durdurma şekli başta vahşi bulunsa da, kuduz hayvanların beyninin araştırılması için korunması gerektiğinden, yapılan uygulamanın baştan sona doğru olduğu belirtildi. Siz, böyle bir müdahaleyi doğru buluyor musunuz?

@MorlockP I’ve only met members of that family once at a funeral. They were … thugs.

@MorlockP Much. I hate this goddamn phone that changes shit after I type it.

Film was mass, going niche.
Novels were mass, going niche.
The world I loved has died, in so many ways, and it sucks. Old school hacking, old school startups, science fiction novels, heritage America ... it's all dead.
I don't know what to do.

Lots of comments about how to remake the film industry--and a lot of "build back better" type talk. Sorry you have to hear it from me, but film as a dominant cultural force is never coming back. But it's not going to go away either. It's going to stick around. Just like opera stuck around. At one time opera was mass entertainment. And then it faded and was replaced by other forms of mass entertainment--like movies. Today opera is a niche thing--reserved for the wealthy. But it still happens. Old operas are still being performed, and once in a while someone even writes a completely original opera. I think we can expect something similar from film. Niche film theaters will play old movies, and once in a while will play something new. But the days of everyone going to the movies on a Saturday night (or even streaming at home) is over. The new films won't be made for a mass audience--not like The Matrix or Starwars or Lord of the Rings or any of the other movies you love--because that mass audience is gone. And it's never coming back. Instead films will be made for a niche audience. And we're already there now. Marvel movies are made for a niche audience of beard neck fanboys, and Oscar bait movies are made for the NPR totebag and Volvo niche. What's going to take film's place? I have no idea. If I had to make a bet on the future of mass entertainment I'd go with anything live and in person. The faker (and gayer) the world gets, the more people will want authenticity. Stand up comedy is enjoying a resurgence--partly for this reason. As far as digital content goes, maybe it'll be gaming, or maybe vertical drama type shows. But who the fuck knows. It will probably be something that doesn't currently exist. But again, film will never go away entirely. Somewhere there are opera companies producing operas, Shakespeare festivals still happen, Greek plays still happen, and somewhere in the world somebody is putting on a Punch and Judy show. So film fans, don't despair. They'll be something for you. It might not be great, but it will be there. And I guess that's better than nothing🤷♂️ (Credit to my friend @DisgracedProp for the film/opera insight.)
