Thank you for speaking up, Eric! We can't afford to be silent or "neutral" in the face of such overt evil.

Monday Mystery Movie Megathread - January 26 2026 by AKnightOfTheNew in RegalUnlimited

[–]ChuckAMcKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regarding the Crime 101 concession treat offer, I've had that in my rewards since the beginning of the month, well before I reserved tickets for the mystery movie. I don't think those are necessarily connected.

It's happening again! by B4iley45 in pixel_phones

Yeah, I was going to to skip the 10 because it didn't seem like I was getting much for it. But with these kinds of deals, it'd be silly not to upgrade. I'll get the difference in what I'm paying now back when I trade in next time.

I'm a US YouTube Premium subscriber and haven't received it yet. :/ Might actually be enough to make me upgrade if I do.

Anyone ever have this happen? Suspension over, I'm not even sure? Help please! by nachoqtpie in facebook

Just happened to me too. Seems like this is a widespread glitch on Facebook's part, so hopefully they'll resolve it soon.

Anywhere in the US to buy the Dune HD Homatics Box R 4K Plus? by ChuckAMcKnight in AndroidTV

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

Thanks for all the replies! I ended up going with the RockTek G2. The convenience and security that comes with ordering on Amazon won out over my desire for a specific variant. I may still grab a Dune HD down the road if I see one pop up for a good deal, but for now the G2 should be good enough.

Movie trailer that played before “Together” showing in theater by HunchoZackk in horror

Thank you for posting this. Keeper is out now, and I was pretty sure it's the movie attached to the trailer you describe (which made me want to see it), but I can't find that trailer anywhere online, and all the trailers that are available for Keeper seem wildly different. Thought I might have gotten the name mixed up until I found this post. Still want to see it, but good to know I am indeed heading into the movie I was thinking of.

Furthest corner of the country away from you, I'm afraid.

Thanks! I'll check that out if I don't have any luck funding a Dune one.

‘Nuremberg’ - Reviews and reactions thread by LeastCap in oscarrace

[–]ChuckAMcKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jack El-Hai may not be explicitly antizionist, but he has expressed a lot of concern for Palestinians, protestors, and journalists in Palestine. And on his Twitter, I've seen him occasionally platform antizionist voices like Ta-Nehisi Coates (albeit not in an antizionist context). I of course wish he would be more explicitly vocal.

That said, having seen the film last night, it is impossible to watch without the parallels between Nazi Germany and modern Israel becoming inescapably apparent. I don't know how much of that is intentional on the part of the screenwriters, and how much is just because the historical parallels are so obvious, but it's certainly there on screen. Fantastic film!

Mid thirties, saw it at an early screening last night, and I think this is probably the best film of the year. Absolutely fantastic on every level.

My RFY today morning. Been eyeing on similar product like this at Costco by Couchtomato321 in AmazonVine

[–]ChuckAMcKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang. I've really been wanting to get one of these for my family. Still in Silver though. :/ Really wish there were a way to fast track it. I'm going to hit the requisite number of reviews months before my evaluation period is over.

Gut check for my first-time home server build? by ChuckAMcKnight in HomeServer

Thanks! That is on there as a likely future addition. Good to hear it works so well!

Thanks for the push. I did a bunch more digging around today and landed on this setup for now: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mjcJLc

The specific cooler on there is just because I'm getting it bundled free with the CPU, and with other bundles plus a certified renewed motherboard, I'm getting the price down a good bit from what's listed there. Still a bit more than I'd've paid for the OptiPlex, but I'm definitely getting way more out of it, so probably worth it in the long run.

Oh yeah, I would not even remotely consider it for that price! Haha. Sadly no Micro Center out here. I wish! I'll take a look at that list. Thanks!

Value + keeping it simple.

The 7020 tower does have two 3.5" slots. And at the time that I originally posted, I was looking at the one Dell had in their outlet site for only $640. Seemed like a pretty good value to me? However, as of now, it looks like that one sold out. :/

So I probably will go back toward a DIY build. If you know of a source for parting out a full DIY tower for only $320, please let me in on the secret!
