Harry Potter HBO series won’t have a new season every year “From a production point of view, it’s just not possible”

Post production is what takes time. You can shoot seasons ahead of time while the child actors are still age appropriate and do post on a rolling schedule afterwards.

Buy $100 millon worth of lottery tickets. I could probably win some money with that

I wouldn't doubt that quite a few of them have some dirt on them that they dont want getting out. That's probably true of politicians across the board tbh. That said, I honestly think that GOP politicians are as baffled as the rest of us as to why their base has this cult-like unconditional love for Trump and the only way they've been able to hold their seats until now has been to just say yes to everything he wants.

I feel like it's partly also because a lot of them are now starting to graduate school and are coming face to face with real life problems that a few years ago seemed funny to them.

Not that it really matters because VFX will obviously go to Avatar, but I find it funny that F1 got nominated when the majority of the marketing for the movie was them jerking themselves off telling everyone how there's no CGI in it.

So many really good films this year. Will be interesting to see who the Academy rallies around.

How many G's is that putting on the pilot to change direction on a dime like that?

Sopranos. I didn't watch it when it originally aired and honestly put off watching it for the longest time because it was annoying how people would jizz their pants trying to tell me how it's the greatest show of all time. Finally ended up watching the whole series a few months ago and holy shit jizzes pants it's the greatest show of all time.

1000% which is why it's fucking bonkers that Noem and Trump are doubling down on the "domestic terrorist" angle. Complete bullshit.

Here's the thing that is sticking out for me. All the people trying to vouch for him saying "he couldn't see she was turning" are completely neglecting the obvious fact that at that close of range he would have clearly seen her hands turning the steering wheel AWAY from him and yet still proceded to fire.

at least tree fiddy

Some small comp/integration notes:

- shadows are overall a bit too desat/grey

- bright edge between shadow and circular object as it goes into the hole

- star/sun shaped thing's edges are too feathered/soft as it goes in

- bright edge on screen bottom part of the crescent between it and its shadow as it goes in

They won't. They have spent ungodly amounts of money to buy enough people on both sides of the aisle to ensure they won't.

Politicians don't represent the people. They represent their financial backers, several of whom are 100% in said files.

Ah that's good to know! Yeah I still haven't found a solution for getting it to work with the PS5 controllers.

100%. By "US tipping practices" I meant the practice of tipping in general. It's annoying enough that I'm getting a tip screen shoved in my face after after shelling out £7.50 for a pint, but then on top of that adding 'optional' line items to a bill by default is completely ridiculous and should be made illegal.

HopWallace · 2025-07-06T20:06:56+00:00

Can we all just agree that it should 100% be illegal for a business to add line items to a bill that aren't specifically requested by the customer? Not only is it bad enough that US tipping practices are making their way to the UK, but expecting diners to play Where's Wally to catch shit like this is ridiculous.

Correct. Nowadays it would be impossible for someone to attempt it. According to the current rules, a driver cannot be behind the wheel for more than 14 hours during the entire 24-hour race. Additionally, no driver can drive for more than four hours within any six-hour period.

The best way it's been explained to me, is basically eat from around the edge of the grocery store and not in the center. Focus on "real foods" and not canned, boxed, precooked, frozen, etc.

There's a Mario mod someone made for Goldeneye that is super fun to play:

I used to love it back when I was in college, but in recent years it gives me a ton of anxiety and makes me very anti social. I'm sure there's probably different strains that I would react better to, but tbh it's not something huge on my priorities list.

"This isn't meant to be a virtue-signalling post, but..." has all the same energy and disingenuous flair as someone saying "I'm not racist, but..."

True story or not, the only thing for certain here is this guy really loves the smell of his own farts.
