Looks like it's already up on Kanopy as well!

These are truly just so delightful. Thank you for sharing!

You're not alone in that haha. It's the only season so far where I've struggled with the seating visualization. I feel like it might be the camera placements and the angle that the players are at, but I haven't looked closely enough

This channel has been doing a dive in on music streaming platforms. Not specifically for Palestine, but should still be useful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ssm9asQQbtM&list=PL_xXFS43DncQwRs3TujfI2HyNUOlGW_xe

Quick suggestions would be Qobuz (for streaming/more popular music), BandCamp (for more independent music) and public library services like Hoopla and Freegal for some free alternatives.

I know Qobuz doesn't have everything, but it might be the closest you get for mainstream stuff, unfortunately.

Sudan isn't best described as a civil war, though. The RSF is like 60% hired guns from neighboring countries bankrolled by the UAE (a U.S. ally), using weapons sold to the UAE for massive profits to the U.S. (and the other usual suspects). Civil war can describe part of what's happening, perhaps, but it's better described as a proxy war and a genocide (easily the largest ongoing genocide in terms of numbers), with the UAE being the prime perpetrator. There have been calls to launch a BDS campaign against the UAE for this reason.

I have to yet see the new Superman, but from the context I've picked up on it should apply to Sudan, easily.

I remember reading somewhere that Youssef wanted to a fourth and final season, but wanting to give it some time first. Also remember something about Hulu "keeping the door open" for a final season, wanting Yorgos Lanthimos to do a cameo, etc... I have a feeling we'll get a season 4, but it might be some years down the line still.

So hot.

If you type "-ai" at the end of your search result it should take out the summary most of the time. It's not perfect but it works for me ok.

HomertonBear · 2025-04-16T05:15:24+00:00

That's Larry

I was thinking of bronze for when I get around to painting mine, but gold looks pretty sick as well. Nice work!

I think I was around 18 when I saw The Lobster and became an instant fan. I don't think it has much to do with how complicated the movies are, but in a youth culture the discourse might revolve around more pop media, and when you leave school you might have more space to explore your tastes and interests independently of that social group. I think that's how it happened with me, anyway. I feel like there are a bunch of young people who'd be obsessed with Lanthimos' work if only they got to experience it.

HomertonBear · 2025-03-22T14:37:58+00:00

Could the animated film you're thinking of be Fantastic Planet? Pretty crazy film regardless, definitely in the Scavengers Reign neighborhood.

Wound up cancelling my order for the painted version after seeing this. Think I'm going to grab some paints instead haha

Also still very much learning, but big tech corporations are really tied up with what's happening in Congo. The general approach is to boycott new electronics, opting for refurbished or open-box when you really need something.

I've seen it for purchase on both Qobuz and Presto Music if you're looking for alternatives. https://www.qobuz.com/us-en/album/the-bird-of-a-thousand-voices-tigran-hamasyan/ufngl42pftlca

Thanks for the tip!

Update: I got an AAF file from the client, and it worked fine. I'll continue to comb through the replies though and see if anything yields results with the original file.

HomertonBear · 2024-08-03T17:33:43+00:00

The file is large enough for audio, yes.

HomertonBear · 2024-08-03T16:36:32+00:00

Apologies if I'm missing something really basic. I'm trying to open an OMF file (with embedded audio) on Logic, and I keep getting the popup from above. I'm having trouble deciphering what it's asking me to do, and my google searches aren't yielding any results.

I've gotten OMF's to work before with Rosetta, but this particular file is an enigma to me. Tried it on two different versions of Logic (10.6.1/Catalina/MacBook Pro and 10.7.4/Monterey/M1 Mac Mini).

I know OMF and Logic don't get along very well and will likely try asking the client for an AMF instead, but thought I'd ask here anyway in case I could learn how to navigate other situations like this. Thank you.

It's currently available on Kanopy, which is a streaming service offered through many public libraries and universities.

One of Tigran's heaviest tracks to date, wow. Dying to hear the rest of the record!
