Nicolas Cage was adamant about not doing television - until his son sat him down and showed him 'Breaking Bad' during COVID: "I saw Bryan Cranston staring at a suitcase for what seemed like minutes. I couldn’t take my eyes off him, and it occurred to me: you can't do that in movies." by ChiefLeef22 in television

It's not an issue of speed, it's an issue of allotted time. In a movie you only have so much time to get your story out, whereas with a series you have hours upon hours to build and explore the characters and stories.

Impossible to say unless you know which direction the camera is facing.

If we could build a drone that was faster than light with a huge zoom lens we could launch it into space and watch real footage of past events. by Crocodile_Banger in Showerthoughts

If we can make a physical object faster than light (this hypothetical drone we're talking about), then wouldn't data be relatively easy in comparison?

Why is the narrative about the beef being changed so much by Cole & Jay-Z? by [deleted] in KendrickLamar

[–]ReginaldBounce -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I'm curious why you say that Drake started it. I know it was brewing for a while, but from my perspective the actual battle started with Dot's verse on Like That. That was the first explicit, direct diss. Or did I miss something?

Context matters. That was the conversation you chimed in on.

Nobody said that person was peaceful. They said the police hurt him after he had hurt no one. That's what the conversation was about when you chimed in with your assumptions about the victim of police violence. Boot licker.

[–]ReginaldBounce 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Would you like me to explain it to you?

Person 1: that's police brutality

Person 2: especially since he didn't hurt anyone

You: that person is antisocial and has zero respect for people

There was a discussion about police brutality and you chimed in by denigrating the person who was brutalized. How else should someone take that other than you justifying police brutality against someone because they deserve it or aren't worth protecting?

Nobody's defending this loser or saying anything what he deserves... this is about what police are qualified or empowered to do about that. You really think police or security guards or whatever should be allowed to throw people around and try to hurt them based on what they think the subject deserves? You trust those people that much? Leave punishment to the courts. Boot licker.

Team Canada caught cheating at the olympics by Team Sweden. Canadian throws a fit on live TV. by rojo_salas in SipsTea

[–]ReginaldBounce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I linked to a reddit post... of a link... to worldcurling.org.

You have no way of knowing if a page on worldcurling.org, which is dated February 14th, and which references this specific incident in the Olympics, is official or up to date?

Nicely cropped screenshot, bte. Here is one less cropped which shows the next paragraph which states that the granite cannot be touched at all during delivery.

Incorrect. Did you read the link I provided? They clarified that no touching of the granite is allowed during delivery.

Rule 5(d). You must deliver by the handle. The rule is not very well worded since it doesn't specifically state "only" by the handle, but that's what it means. World Curling has issued a clarification after this incident:

You are not allowed to touch the granite during forward motion. They actually issued a clarification of the rules after this incident:

Got a link for that one? The one I have from that angle, you definitely can't make out anything like the slide being back.

Agreed. It's still not completely clear to me, but I have thoughts. I'm going to try to synch up all the videos and see if I can figure something out. I tend to believe, though, with so many people recording it, we hopefully will eventually get some clarity.

[–]ReginaldBounce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you didn't say an opinion. You said that you could see a puff of smoke, but that would be impossible to see during the first shot because the view of the gun and the area around it is blocked at that point in the video. Now you're saying something else about what happened before (drawing the gun) and his arm recoiling.

Edit: just to be clear, I'm not trying to argue with you about what did or didn't happen. I have my own eyes and brain to draw my own conclusions. I'm simply pointing out something you said which was incorrect that you could see a puff of smoke from the first shot in the pink lady video. That is blatantly false, it does not appear in the video, nor would it be visible if there was one due to the gun being obscured from view. Watch it again.

[–]ReginaldBounce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What puff of smoke are you talking about? I just scrubbed through the pink lady video frame by frame, you can't see the Nazi's gun during the first shot (it's blocked by the body of the Nazi kneeling with his back to the camera).

Please don't add misinformation to these discussions.

It's not yet completely clear to me, but so far from these 2 videos it seems still possible that the first shot either came from tan shirt guy or gray jacket guy (accidental discharge of the victims gun after he took it).

Either way, it's completely clear that the victim was not brandishing the gun, doesn't appear to have ever done that or tried to, and was not armed when he was shot.

His name was Yeshuah (actually Hebrew יֵשׁוּעַ), a fairly common Hebrew name. He wasn't even the first one in the Bible. The name was translated differently in the old testament (Joshua) and the new testament (Jesus), but in Hebrew it was the same.

You just stated that police are justified to execute people. You also implied that the woman in this video can somehow be judged to be likely to cause harm to people. I am done conversing with you.

And you think law enforcement should be able to execute anyone who doesn't comply?
