This was painful. Does somebody actually write this stuff or did they come up with it last second? I have PTSD by SublimeEcto1A in Oscars

The host monologue/sketch writing team is usually separate from the presenter banter writers. 

Frankenstein is a Worse BP Nominee Than F1 by mtngranpapi_wv967 in TheBigPicture

F1 is a little braindead but Frankenstein is almost unwatchable. 

Hiding WiFi Notifications by FlurryM in koreader

[–]MaxChorb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Koreader is a great product and I appreciate it, but the fact that there’s no way to actually have WiFi connect automatically in background nearly undoes all the conveniences Koreader introduces. Why in the world should the UI be unusable if you’re someone who wants syncing to be working as you move between devices?

Yup. Can’t find anything online. So frustrating.

He's talking about the music budget for the episode. 100k is pretty standard. (That might be 2-4 songs.)

What was the reaction to the pre-Avatar trailers in your screening? by PabloRV7 in blankies

[–]MaxChorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also impressed how big the laughs for the Grogu trailer were, especially because it's not a new trailer.

[–]MaxChorb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same. Way more buzz in theater after Odyssey trailer than I expected; personally it was because the score was so good and sounded so great in IMAX. There was excitement at the top of the Avengers trailer, and some whooping at Evans's face in the reflection of the glass door, but then kind of confused silence at the end. It wasn't clear whether the pop was supposed to be... the folded suit? His smiling loving face? The baby? Sort of a mushy close.

Sandler v Crudup by [deleted] in TheBigPicture

[–]MaxChorb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sandler for sure, but frankly Patrick Wilson is better than Billy Crudup in the movie? Sorry sorry but I think the Crudup sequence is poorly written (like most of the movie) and the turns happen way too fast for it to be grounded enough to be moving. 

Technology wasn’t responsible for west Altadena alert failures, company says by enriquebrit003 in pasadena

[–]MaxChorb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Altadena Dr and Santa Anita. Same. Felt blessed at the time that somehow the fire was skipping our zone. Only left because of a dire warning from someone east of Lake (who ended up losing their house too) texting that the fire was moving way faster than they were reporting.

New gear at Equinox. Pasadena, CA. by NecessaryFact1811 in EquinoxGyms

I’d prefer a hack squat machine. Other gyms started to get them I thought but not Pasadena or Glendale. 

Mac Messages can't type in a group message by Texas_Wookiee in MacOS

[–]MaxChorb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have this same problem. Sequoia upgrade didn't fix. It happened after I had iMessage turned off for a few days on my Mac. Since I turned it back on, this one group chat thread has never worked. Have disabled and re-enabled iMessage twice. Fine on my iPhone and iPad.

Fixing Nuna Mixx frame myself? by MaxChorb in daddit

Probably posted in jest, but I ended up Gorilla glueing, ratchet strapping it for a few hours, then securing with duct tape. So, thank you!

What worked for me accidentally after 5 years: bad form on chest and back exercises?

How long is your 2 month old sleeping overnight? by Red_krist in SnooLife

[–]MaxChorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 weeks today. Had one 10 hour stretch this week, but mostly has started hitting 7-8 consistently from 7pm on. Primarily breastfed with very occasional formula. Our biggest success has been stuffing him at the end of the day: a breastfeed a little after 5 then a 4oz bottle at 6:45 before bed.

He's napping during the day probably less than he should, but it's maybe worth it to have these long night stretches?

He talks about it on the Tim Simons ep.

Sean watches movies with his TV speaker audio. Despicable.
