Oxford commas forever. Commas save lives, people!

MoviePass and Sinemia got me into like 50 movies. I think my favorite part of that glorious year (less, but let’s round) was when one of the services just stopped working one day and I had prepaid for a year’s service. I reached out to my credit card company and said I got shorted X months of the service. They refunded me the full amount of the prepaid year, so I essentially got months of newly released movies (I’d typically go on Friday afternoons to have fewer people in the theater and the line for concessions) for free.

I should add, the RunPee app saved me so many times I can’t even tell you. Seriously, my favorite app even tangentially related to movies. Get the Infinity Coin if that’s still offered, it’s a great deal for a lifetime of not missing the good parts, especially if you see Christopher Nolan movies regularly.

Space Jesus, not regular earthbound Jesus.

They made it to the WCF after a huge trade deadline team upgrade. Given that most of the core pieces of the team that beat the Warriors and the Grizzlies are back, why wouldn’t they be a contender? What teams got significant upgrades in the West to stand in their way that weren’t there the last time around? Plus given the injuries and new team, the Lakers spent the last 1/3 of the season figuring out their team chemistry, even to the point where the play-in game was one of the first where the Playoff lineup was even on the floor together. No meteors needed, just the Lakers to play consistently and stay healthy. LeBron and AD can manage their minutes because the new team can put up points without them, and that means good things at the end of the season. What the Lakers are missing is a good bruiser of a center who can take the physicality of Jokic and save AD from foul trouble. If they fill that gap, I don’t know if even the Nuggets have a team that can beat them.

He’s really saying the Lakers FO did a good enough job putting a team around him that he thinks they’re contenders for another title. He knows he’s getting to the end of his career so if he’s going to risk his chance of playing with Bronny, there’s got to be a really strong chance for another ring. Considering how the Lakers started and how the season ended at the WCF, bringing back Reaves and Hachimura made it clear he won’t have to carry the team the whole way to the Playoffs and hopefully a championship.

Lemmy is methodone or saboxin compared to the tainted heroin that is Reddit.

 

It’s probably a minor thing, but I dearly miss the Apollo feature to press on the title bar while deep in a comment thread and have it take me to the top. A second press would then return you to where you were.

Can we please have that feature in Voyager?

Do you need color? Do you need scanning beyond using a scanner app from your iPhone (I use Scanner Pro and it’s worth every penny)? You may be okay with a really good B&W laser, ik which case I can more than recommend a Brother. That said, if you need color, I recently bought a Brother color laser printer and no joke, it’s a tank.

It’s not a multifunction printer but when I unboxed it, it weighed noticeably more than the multifunction color laser printer it replaced. Five months in, it’s quick, quiet, and I have no regrets spending the extra money over an Epson inkjet or a lesser laser printer. Oh, and it does duplex, so I use less paper. I legitimately think the case of paper I bought a couple of years ago is the last printer paper I’ll ever buy, and I expect this printer might be the same.

Basically they’ve bought into the idea that the West, neoliberal capitalists to the core, is the root of all evils, so the leaders opposing the West must be good. Unfortunately, the enemy of my enemy isn’t my friend when it comes to geopolitics.

Harden out there going “hey, what about me?”

One of the ones I used during 2020 was a biohazard screen from Resident Evil. Another was from Rogue One, with a nice shot of the Death Star getting ready to fire. I think it set the right tone.
