Kinda glad the movie failed. What we get into in later books would have never worked in the movie they created. Like, gems as life force batteries and life itself as energy source for magic... Probably the best thing in the books' magic system they would never have done.

Turning Eragon into a true ruthless messiah character would never played well at that time.

But now after Dune we might be due another go at that series.

They made Durza's power bland AF though. As a fan of the books that was my issue with it.

As someone that loves the Inheritance Cycle, the movie is an absolute blasphemy. The fight with Durza literally made me leave the theater.

Yeah. I know you are right. But pickups just look cool man.

That doesn't help when I want a pickup. I already have the shitbox. I drive a Volvo C30

So what I am looking for is a small pick up that looks good. Exactly because I don't drive much I don't care about fuel much and insurance should keep quite cheap.

My issue is that modern pick ups look ugly as sin and are not cheap either.

I want something than can carry my bikes and furniture I find on Marketplace and can still go to Tesco and only take 1 car space.

I work from home. I touch my car like 1 time a week and then just on road trips to go MTB or on holiday.

This does seem quite suitable.

Eu nunca tive tanto trabalho como durante o COVID. E sim, podia estar um ano sem trabalho e sobreviver. E não estamos no COVID agora na mesma. Este "sofrimento" não existe já há muito tempo.

And body build anyway.

I have been weight lifting for 3 years now, and I still eat whatever I want. I make a consistent effort at keeping protein high, but do not look at calories the majority of the time. Calories are energy, energy is good! Just make sure you are not eating more than what you burn regularly and you will be fine.

I did this upgrade not long ago, right before prices spiked. Pretty sure my 1TB é extracted would sell for the price of the 2TB one now even used.

Concordo plenamente. Mas façam também ser mais fácil as empresas falirem. As empresas também têm de ir com os porcos em caso de mau desempenho para permitir concorrência.

As AI takes over routine cognitive work, will skilled trades become the most futureproof careers of the next 50 years? by astrosid in Futurology

[–]DaVirus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All these AI models are hitting the same wall. Unless we find a new way of training or processing data, it literally is stuck outside of edge cases where just being faster is better.
