That's nonsense. Every computer I own boots in under a minute. That was unheard of in the 90s, much less the 80s.

Honestly, I hope they do. It'd be funny to see the sales figures. I don't care how much anyone likes AI, but nobody wants to read AI novels.

I'm a Jellyfin Server Guy, and same deal. Around a dozen friends & fam, no charge.

I'm not sure why needing transcoding would keep you off Jellyfin though, Jellyfin transcodes just fine.

This politician is a jackass, but I do wish there was a bit more bylaw enforcement being directed at e-bikes and scooters. I can't count the times I've almost been smoked by one on the goddamn sidewalk, or been sideswiped by what is essentially a silent motorcycle in a bicycle lane. Especially dangerous when they're so favored by delivery app couriers who are also incentivized to rush at high speeds.

Or alternatively, that clever, funny, smart people are not always immune to propaganda and radicalization

This is what Canada's all about. We're just 3 corporations in a trench coat, pretending to be a country.

I miss the old days, where if a franchise got to 7 or 8 installments, the budget would have shrunk and the ideas would have become insane. In a just world, Jurassic Park 8 would be a straight-to-dvd release that takes place in space or something.

Yeah, I'd rather watch the Lynch version anytime, the new ones are like 6 hours of bland, boring choices and wooden performances.

Y'all need to see the OG anti-nazi movie, Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator, which he made in 1939.

Places that aren't home or work. Social places, like bars.

Hey man, I'm being asked to act as a cashier with no pay and with no training. If I accidentally punch in the code for peanuts when I'm buying macadamia nuts, or accidentally forget to scan my items, I don't see how that's my fault.

With today's news of Letterboxd being acquired by an investment company, I got to wondering if I should start weaning my movie obsession off of there and onto something more open before the inevitable enshittification begins. I did a cursory search and found nothing promising, but figured the braintrust here might know something I don't!
