I suspect the short prison sentence is because he flipped on the people above him.

Netflix is pretty much nothing now except foreign reality TV. Thank you for reminding me I need to cancel them and Hulu.

Terrence Malick is not best known for a film about a sociopathic killing spree.

Whoever this journalist is, they are uncultured swine.

About 10 years ago it was probably closer to 80% IPAs. It was a big joke here that IPA stands for I Pretend (I’m not an) Alcoholic.

The only reason there is more on the market now is because we all stopped pretending the taste of motor oil with grapefruit gave us a better buzz.

Even now, most breweries will only seem to offer 4 varieties of IPAs, a pilsner/lager and a stout. Maybe an Amber but I feel the Mac & Jack’s copycat scene has mostly died out now.

Apple is the company who gave all the elementary schools free computers in exchange for putting their advertising posters up in.the hallways.

It was fully intentional.

If we let conservatives ban 1984, they will be forced to stop pretending they have read it, and comparing everything irrelevant to it, while we can still illegally access it.

Something to think.about.

I’m not interested in changing your feelings on the subject, so I think the discussion is finished if you aren’t willing to have the discussion meet a bare minimum of decency.

I’m quite comfortable in what I have given and continue to give in the fight against fascism. Thank you.

I am underestimating none of those things. I fully expert lone wolf nutcases to continue their plots. I’m stating that the organizational infrastructure that was there to help guide them during the Trump era is now gone.

I understand a continuation of a grand conspiracy is somehow more comforting than the reality that fascist movements are already plotting what post-trump action looks like, but I assure you, the grand conspiracy stage is finished for the moment.

I’m not underestimating fascists. That’s preposterous to allege. 😃

I am saying that the organizational heirarchy that led to Jan. 6 is gone in prison or acting as informants. Steve Bannon isn’t sending $20k in bitcoin to Jim or Ron Watkins anymore, everybody else’s funding is dried up. The situation has changed.

I don’t think so.

Essentially everybody who was going to murder for Trump has already done so or attempted to do so.

The entire paramilitary wing of Trumpism is behind bars because of January 6th. Everybody left knows they are being watched.

Even the most deluded know they are only years away from their retirement. They are going to go.back to football and essential oils, and like Bush, they will pretend they were against Trump the entire time.

I foresee right wing terror returning to essentially lone wolf attacks on children or chitches.

Is something lost in translating 100 Years of Solitude from Spanish into English?

Absolutely?

Are there many books originally written in English that are better than the English translation of 100 Years of Solitude?

Very very few, actually.

Except this isnt a random person looking to get famous. This is a well respected journalist and editor represented by established publishing houses and a respected law firm.

I hate saying it because its an obvious statement, but he literally wrote the book on the subject.

If people are being interviewed specifically because they previously participated as a source in a book and they are provoked to give the same specific anecdotes they gave to the original author, just to get around paying a fee, then the original author’s work is still being adapted.

I think what probably happened is Apple refused to greenlight production with the author’s involvement. He might be the specific editor of gizmodo that Apple had swatted about 10 years ago, accusing gizmodo of espionage.

That is always possible, but in this case I suspect that isn’t so.

This author has independent research and can likely prove that nobody before them ever presented the story in the structure of a spy thriller.

The author can also prove the Tetris company had the galleys before publishing. A professional studio would have likely never allowed one of their screenwriters to ever read the book. I think this case.is going to get settled.

I am sure he can prove what in the film came from his book and what didn’t. The article specifies much of the book was written from his own sourcing.

If there is even 1 thing in the film that cant be sourced to a 2nd published article, than that proves his book was in part adapted.

Interesting. I will keep an eye out.

I also live in the seattle, I have never once seen Franks red being used as barbecue sauce.

I feel like most places here are making their own, and they are all coke or Dr. Pepper based.

I still dont think anybody is going to design an app where they are a GPS on the front end and a couponing mint on the backend.

Something like that is not possible open source. No developer or team could afford hosting every driver recording themselves in exchange for coupons.

I also imagine its illegal for GPS systems to integrate advertising in many jurisdictions.

I wish it would autoplay either from the new episodes list, or next in podcast page, but aside from that I have been loving it.
