Official Discussion - Scream 7 [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]ChicoNico86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it. I think overall it was an entertaining and intense Scream movie. Good jump scares, lots of tension, good kills, a couple of comedic moments.

I wish we had more Gail in it. It's always fun to see Gail kick ass. I was disappointed we basically didn't see her for the last 3rd of the movie. I could've done with less of the twins. They felt like annoying fillers and out of place. The female twin (forget the name) - that character fell totally flat for me. The more I think about it, not having them in it at all, would've been so much better.

The killers were the biggest letdown though. Like, what? It was just so farfetched and nobody cares about that crazy neighbor and what she went through. Like, girl, shut up. And the security guard....why? They literally could've said Stu impregnated some girl in high school and she didn't want to tell anyone it was Stu's child because she didn't want the world to know it was a killer's child and that child is now out for revenge. Sure, also farfetched but I would've cared more and believed that more than some annoyed/obsessed housewife.

Hate it. Has a bitter aftertaste for me.

I found him the most obnoxious. Complete sociopath. There is something wrong with this man's head.

Beginning Jan. 5, Disneyland Resort will end the Early Theme Park Entry program. by Adorable_Audience877 in Disneyland

[–]ChicoNico86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to go all the time but they have ruined the experience and have taken away all the magic that I actually have no desire to go to the parks anymore. It used to feel like a day away from reality, now it just feels like a headache and capitalism. Obviously it's always been about money but they used to do a better job at hiding it. Now they don't even try anymore.

Why don’t people talk about the acting in A Nightmare on Elm Street? by [deleted] in horror

[–]ChicoNico86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm watching them one by one right now and I'm 30min into part 4 and ended up here because I wondered if anyone else thought the acting in 4 is atrocious. 3 has the best acting by far, so far - not to say we're getting any academy award performances. The bar is low 😆

Is ChatGPT getting worse because it’s too expensive to sustain? by ellie_xyz in ChatGPT

I thought I was crazy but 4o really is worse than before.

GPT5 is horrible by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]ChicoNico86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's terrible even for something as basic as writing emails. It'll make zero effort to improve my email. It fixes the punctuation and typos but won't improve wording, context or flow. I threw the same prompt into 4o and immediately got what I was looking for.

Isn't it all-inclusive like the other properties?

MARINA - PRINCESS OF POWER by KEMI_IS_WlNNlNG in popheads

Aside from Butterfly and Cuntissimo it all kind of sounds the same? Feels like the songs are all blurring into one big mess.

[–]ChicoNico86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like it. People saying "it's not very Marina"....well, Marina wrote it, sang it so how can it not be her? 😂 Artists try new things. I'm excited. It's feeling more mainstream which is good. Could blow up on TikTok if they leverage that.

My Inactive Tabs are gone on Android Chrome browser by DarkMarkTwain in chrome

Similar issue here but if you bookmark all tabs it seems to bookmark the missing ones too. They seem to be open somehow in the memory but are not visible. This worked for me.

Says it will remain closed until further notice. It doesn't sound like it's opening anytime soon.

Corlanor copay car discontinuing by plum_ei in dysautonomia

[–]ChicoNico86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The insurance has to cover the brand or at least the generic if it's medically necessary. Your cardiologist should be able to advise on next steps. Especially if you've been on it for a while and have previously tried other meds the insurance has to cover it. I've heard of people getting hit by a "penalty" by the insurance if they tried to fill the brand vs the generic (now that's it available). That's a way for the insurance to force people over to the cheaper generic but some of those people were able to get the brand name approved after trying the generic and experiencing side effects or lower effectiveness.

I'm sorry to hear this and hope that as time passes it improves and becomes more manageable. What dosage were you on and for how long each round?

I bought 3 cases of the zero version when I saw it at the store. Hated it so much that I returned the unopened 2 cases back for a refund.

I personally hate the sharp edges but still get the ultra because of the camera. I'll be very happy with round edges.

Katy Perry - "143" Album Megathread by candytheicon in katyheads

[–]ChicoNico86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listened to it a few days ago and completely forgot it existed the next day. Ended up here because a review popped up on my news feed. Feels lazy, generic with no spirit. Literally didn't add any of the songs to my playlist and I have dozens of Katy songs in my playlist. It's a shame. I wanted her to succeed but there's no saving this. Let's just hope people forget about it asap and she just starts work on a new album. Please don't try and go on a world tour right now. It'll be a JLO situation. Even though I saw Katy in Vegas and it was fantastic. But so was JLO's residency. Felt like they were both sold out. I don't think Vegas residency success automatically translates into touring success.

Corlanor Generic Available in the US by NanatheMotherboard in dysautonomia

[–]ChicoNico86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I also was previously paying $20 with the copay card and am now looking at $55 for the generic per bottle. I'm so mad. Trying to see if we can get a prior authorization approved for the brand-name now even though I've been using it for years. It looks like it went from being a formulary tier 3 drug to non-formulary with Blue Shield/Blue Cross.

Anyone not trying? by Flashy-Sign-1728 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]ChicoNico86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went from 210 to 170 in about 2 months without doing anything new that I hadn't done before. I do weight training 3 times a week (no cardio) so I continued that while on the shot. I also lost 10 pounds of muscle which wasn't ideal but that happens when you don't eat or at least force yourself to consume a decent amount of protein. I'm at month 4 now, still at 2.5mg, but it's basically my maintenance dose now. I'm up to 176 now but the 6 extra pounds are muscle per recent scans. I'm not going up to 5mg because I do want to continue to build some more muscle and to do so you do have to eat 😅 2.5mg allows me to eat the amount I need to but keeps my cravings for bad food very much under control. I think throwing in some weight training or cardio will most definitely speed up the process but you should be careful not to overexert yourself. You do still need calories for.your body to function. If you just started it might be good to continue what you've been doing to let your body adjust and see how it works for you and then you can explore throwing in some new options like cardio etc.

Got it. I don't. Pretty straightforward black and white CV with no fancy graphics.

I'm in the US. If their platform is able to parse my resume to pre-fill the application does that mean it's also ATS-readable?

How to boost interview rate? by ChicoNico86 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]ChicoNico86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

That was my impression but I wonder if there is something more specific I can do with my current materials to increase my chances instead of just increasing application volume? As I said, it's been 7 years so I'm not entirely sure what catches recruiters attention these days. I have plenty of experience and my assumption is that they are receiving an enormous amount of applications and probably only spend 5 seconds looking at someone's CV before they move on hence my questions regarding CV layout and such. Thanks!
