I live in Canada.

It’s fine, I guess. But my biggest regret is that I didn’t register my dual citizenship (child of portuguese citizens) so that I could explore the E.U. and settle down somewhere in Europe. Now, I’m 50, with too many bills to pay.

Grab opportunities when you’re young, kids. If you don’t, then before you realize it, you’ll be to stuck in the bullshit mundanity of daily life to do it later.

Also wish I had installed OnlyOffice to see if it might have matched the “feel” of Excel better before giving MS money.

It’s shockingly similar in a lot of ways. Just barely different enough to not get sued, I’d imagine.

Thank you! Appreciate it.

Sadly I have to agree. Being able to take my excel work home with me, where I use Linux exclusively, is the sole reason that I’m forced to use OnlyOffice vs LibreOffice. It has better compatibility with Excel by a WIDE margin.

That being said, I don’t have the issue with OnlyOffice that others seem to have. It’s desktop app is still OpenSource, it’s just the online bits and collaboration stuff that isn’t. But I’d still rather go with a non-profit like the Document Foundation than a for profit company any day of the week.

Hobbies, such as photography. Which brings me to my question…

Anyone know what camera, lens and film-stock (or if digital, what settings) were used to capture that look in the screenshot posted? I love it. It’s a still from “The Mastermind” and I haven’t been able to find any technical specs on the production.

It makes me nauseaus to read about all of it, and I’m not even American.

Yeah. I hadn’t read the book since my early twenties and decided now (at 50) I wanted to take another read through because of all the crap going on, and it’s honestly terrifying how press releases and especially Karoline Leavitt sounds straight up newspeak and rewriting the narrative whenever possible.

It’s only a matter of time before they get a department going whose sole job is to go back into historical documents to re-write old news articles to show that they’ve always been right.

“This too shall pass”

If something good happens, it’s a cautionary warning to stay humble.

If something bad happens, it’s a comforting reminder that things will get better.

Queen Rock Montreal

It’s the one concert that I wish I had been born early enough to attend, but alas I was only five years old at the time. When the album came out in 2007 was when I became a Queen fan.

Does the cat use Arch, BTW?

Nope, just a random thought that came into my head while I was showering.

Worms eat me. Worms poop me out. Worm poop provides nutrient to a few stray wandering plant and tree seeds. They grow. I’m a part of them.

I despise the argument that they always use, saying “It’ll bring in tax revenue”

No it fucking won’t. The people who own these things DON’T PAY TAXES. Going out of their way to AVOID paying taxes is their entire deal!

If there is one bright side to all of this recent “affordability” crisis, is that I think more and more people are getting affected enough now that they’re FINALLY starting to focus their gaze on the billionaires and the politicians who are bought by them. (Maybe that’s optimism).

Don’t get me wrong, most of them still obediently ALSO blame immigrants, trans folk, homeless people, etc… whoever the billionaires and politicians TELL them to blame, but they’re finally beginning to look in the upper direction too.

Holy shit that would legitimately be amazing.

That contemplative stare has me asking…

Annie are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

Its a shame they didn’t succeed.

That’s what introduced me to it. I immediately had to track it down and watch the entire thing.

I’ve discovered a number of my favourite B movies through those guys.

I also think that Bigfoot vs DB Cooper could be an amazing film if done properly, but its a shame the title has been ruined.

Raw Force (1982)

Martial arts students visit an island with ghosts of dishonored fighters. They encounter a Hitler lookalike running a female slavery operation, leading to encounters with cannibals, piranhas, zombies, and chaos.

Absolutely stupid low budget insanity.

Have you seen Elysium?

Yeah…pretty much that. In some form or another. It won’t necessarily be the wealthy people blasting off to a space station, more likely just hiding away on luxury islands while the rest of the world continues to go to shit.

The OG Playstation had, by far, the biggest collection of games that I consider my favourites.
