Did you watch the one with Decker's voiceover, or without?

Apparently the common experience is watching it without voiceover first makes it harder to watch. But watching it with voiceover first makes rewatching it without, more interesting. Or something like that.

mub ,

I swear his latest movie is just the "Emperor's new clothes" test. If you watch the whole thing you failed the test. I managed to stop around 30 mins ish.

mub ,

Original version has voiceover, directors cut does not.

Feeling lost and with no direction, what skill should I learn?

Hi everyone. I am feeling like I've lost any direction after getting laid off earlier this year (was working as an analyst in telecom and very recently landed a much lower position in healthcare data entry due to necessity). I already have several hobbies but I am either burnt out on them or they have lost their luster (similar...

Gymnastics. Seriously. You don't need to be all that athletic to do the core basics. You get fitter and have fun just throwing yourself onto big soft mats.

Put the ball into an open net in Rocket League.

The music. The early 90s saw the rise of independent record labels which then gave rise to bands who wouldn't have stood a chance otherwise, aka Indie Music. After the 60s, the 90s is by far the best era for modern music ever.

mub ,

Now, now!

mub ,

Rocket League, and lots of other games, seem to have stayed on Reddit.

I only stuck my head in the and got the same feeling I did when I watched the first 30 mins of Lost. I stopped before going all in.

I wear whatever the fuck I want. I once had a sort of boss (not a line manager just a coordinator. Our team were all contractors and didn't really report to one person as such). She saw me crossing the office one day and pulled me aside to tell me I had to wear a shirt and tie from now on. Anyway, I just said "nope", and walked off.

She had been trying shit like this on our team for a while and we knew we could just ignore her about this stuff. Still satisfying though.

mub ,

I'm confused why men still wear suits. They look like school uniforms to me, and make men look like overgrown school kids.

Women have far more choice, and the equivalent clothing items on when would be considered too casual. Time this shit changed.

mub ,

Could you do it in 2 phases? First, everyone selects a random partner and exchanges their random number. Each pair then has a result that is locked in. Then everyone submits their result to be summed up as already suggested (Pos/neg = heads/tails).

If there are an uneven number of players, then one player makes a three-some.

mub ,

The risk of a pair collision should be mitigated by all pairings being random. And both pairs announce they pair with so that they can't lie.

But collusion is possible if they happen to pair with another cheater which is not guaranteed unless every is a cheater.

mub ,

Any solution we come up with can probably be used to just decide the answer anyway.

How about, every player puts in a token to say I'm going to play. Then every player plays an encrypted answer. Once every player has answered they each reveal the key to unlock their answer to every player. Everyone then sees the overall answer at the same time.

mub ,

Yeah you've been more technical than me.

mub ,

Played it without VR. Felt the same. Maybe because I intentionally waited until late at night so it would be dark enough with the lights off. Awesome game.

How old is the oldest building in the town you live in?

To those from the Western hemisphere, it's always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of the...

I live around the Yorkshire moors. There are dry stone walls up there which are up to 600 years old. I love walking up in the hills and thinking about that.

Do you practice self care?

Hello. Let's talk about self-care. Who practices self-care regularly? I've been making an absolute effort to practice self-care, and it's definitely improving my mood. I floss, meditate, do qigong, breathwork, etc. Yes, flossing is self-care, take care of yo teefs. What does everyone do for self-care? Bonus question: Where else...

mub ,

This is without doubt the most important form of self care, and the definition most people jump to when asked to say what self-care means.

mub ,

Easy to mistake. Jelqing is not jerking. Not sure what jelking though. I should wear my glasses when I post.

mub ,

Oh. Google jelging.

mub ,

Was going to say Hot Fuzz. You can watch it multiple times and it is still funny.

mub ,

Is it true they play a G note when you fart?

mub ,

Turns out, D#

mub ,

True, depends which Key you are in.

I'm on Pixel 7 and current Firefox, but it won't install. It Just says "no app found to open xpi files"

Edit: fixed. Have to engage Dev options. Settings > About > tap the Firefox icon a few times. Then go back to settings and you'll see the "install add-on from file" option.

Unless this is a prison and the only way out is to die here.

Not eating breakfast. Seriously. Breakfast is to blame for a lot of obesity. The idea that breakfast is the most important meal of the day is an invention.

mub ,

Glad I wasn't the only one.

Sunroof.

To the moon. Played it a few years ago. Cried.

mub ,

What? No. Seriously?

Chrysler grand voyager. It was relatively new, but omg it felt borderline dangerous. It was actually funny for the first 10 mins but I had to deliver this POS few hours away. On a straight smooth road it was like driving a sofa, comfy and soft. Once it entered a corner it turned into a boat, and stopping hard twice in a row had limited success. I asked the dealer where I delivered it too about how it handled. Apparently this is standard behaviour for Cryslers, and in the US it is fine (straight roads, limited hard breaking) and they love soft cars. In the UK we expect cars to stop and go round corners so we notice just how bad the Grand voyager is.

I won't drive a Crysler again.

mub ,

I may have over simplified. In the UK, especially in Yorkshire, the roads are hilly and twisty. We mostly drive manual cars, so we can ride the engine instead of the brakes when descending long steep hills. The Grand voyager struggled, and while I could lock that slush box of an auto in lower gears, it was not happy about it.

mub ,

Most of them are stupid especially when related to uniforms. Example: jumpers must be worn in class even if in a heatwave. (I kicked off about this and they amended but the fuss was unbelievable). Coats off at the door even if it is cold and raining. You have to put coats on once you have left the building. Insane.

mub ,

Yes but I preferred Tiny Elvis.

Is this some sort of AI code injection?

mub ,

Lol sorry was being slow.

I'm always suspicious of these sorts of posts. Feels like the answers could be used to profile the users who reply. Maybe the internet has made me way too paranoid.

mub ,

I know. Just something that crosses my mind when I see these sorts of questions.

I reread most of my books but "player of games" by Iain M. Banks I read so many times I broke it and had to buy a new copy. Weirdly, I don't think it is the best of his books, it is just a fun read.

mub ,

Radiohead. I've been a fan since I heard them on the BBC Radio 1 show "The evening session" on the early 90's, and I've loved every album.

Each time I had a chance to see them something got in the way. Usually a financial situation.

One day I'll get to see them.

How do you get rid of "wet dog" smell in a dishwasher?

This is a thing with every dishwasher I've had, some models seem better than other. You wash the dishes and when they dry, they have a musty odor I can only describe as "wet dog". Other people often don't seem to notice this, so maybe I am just sensitive to it. Though if I point it out, then they smell it....

mub ,

"I don't put certain things like" . . . I expect you to say "dogs".

mub ,

The music performed by the band ranged from outstanding to utter pretentious twaddle. Imho the most interesting thing about The Doors was the 1991 film about the band. Val Kilmer play Morrison. The likeness was uncanny.

The impression you get is the guy went to excess and succeeded at being a dick. Shame really cos I genuinely like most of their tracks.

mub ,

While exercise will have some impact the vast majority of weight is controlled by what you eat not what you do. Also calories are not burnt in a simple one to one equation. Different types of calories are processed definitely in the body. Sugar turns to fat, but the same amount of calories in bacon, or carrots, or bread, are all different, and your body will use them differently. The less processed a food is, the harder it is for your body to extract those calories, so measuring calories from what it says on yh packet is not the best guide.

Sorry, rambling.

Tl;Dr - Exercise for fitness, eat for fitness.
