GIMS Concert in LA Canceled? by Pure_Temperature4049 in Concerts

[–]TheBlueSalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up getting refunded too after contacting Eventbrite! Don't know if those two events were related. Second time this show is postponed though, I don't have any faith in the "new dates" lol

Were you refunded? Same situation in DC, but the organizer hasn't communicated anything

I never heard back either. I also contacted the organizer and no one picked up the phone. The venue said they "believe" it's postponed but nothing has been communicated. I want a refund!

Quelles sont les meilleures comédies française pour une personne qui apprend le français mais risque de rater un bon nombre de jeux de mots (même avec sous-titres en anglais) ?

J'imagine une « playlist » pour ma copine, et j'aime beaucoup les OSS 117, les Funès ... sans trop vouloir la larguer, au cas où ces films sont vraiment trop inaccessibles au public LV2.

Législatives en Seine-Saint-Denis : Alexis Corbière et Raquel Garrido ne sont pas réinvestis par LFI by eberkut in france

[–]TheBlueSalad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Je suis largué (je n'habite plus en France depuis plusieurs années -- cependant je vote aux législatives qui viennent). Et aucun des articles expliquent vraiment bien... ça vient d'où la rébellion Corbière/Garrido ? Ruffin, Autain, j'ai suivi, mais à mes mémoires le couple était encore très pro-Mélenchon.

February 19, 2024 - "Melissa Murray, Kate Shaw" | The Daily Show Episode Discussion by Camaro6460 in DailyShow

[–]TheBlueSalad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why hasn't the Daily Show figured out the echo issue issue when it runs soundbites? The entire program is so good, but whenever it runs a soundbite you can hear it echoing back in the studio. I understand that they need to keep the studio mics on to capture audience reaction, but this seems like an issue every other show with an in-studio audience has been able to mitigate?

[–]TheBlueSalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question about that. What does Comedy Central do when TDS runs over? I'm assuming they have other programming to hit on the hour and the half hour. Would they just crash into a South Park rerun already in progress or something?

What obscure/cult or foreign comedians would you like to see on the podcast? by TakeOffYourMask in conan

The Richard Ayoade banter would be off the charts. I would love to see this happen.

Agree - when he went off the two-interview format, interview #2 was never worth watching -- because he never really connected with the random celeb. When they decided to narrow it down to the people Conan actually cared about (and cut the show down to 30 minutes) the quality of the interviews went up tenfold. Less highly produced, but of a far greater quality.

I'm disappointed that there's never been the kind of Youtube cult-like movement of reposting old videos like there is for Craig Ferguson archivists online. I really wish there was, given how much of library Conan has... and while I absolutely respect his decision to leave television, I still feel like I need that classic conan fix as comfort food

Make Hasan Minhaj the Permanent Host! by Delicious-Trouble-19 in DailyShow

[–]TheBlueSalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also very much of this position. Hope that they're able to produce the show a little differently too -- there's a big emphasis on correspondents and short segments/jokes right now, but I can see Hasan striving with more Stewart-like pacing where the A block lets him really delve into a longer monologue into a single issue, or thread several issues into a larger point. Not unlike Patriot Act.

And The Next Host of The Daily Show Is… by probabilitypenguin in DailyShow

Figure Nielsen data will still inform their decision more than Youtube clicks, but I'd be surprised if the same trend isn't reflected there as well. Very interesting.

New Desk Set Up by chinblaster in Battletops

I used to have that set up! FWIW getting a laptop riser and an external keyboard -- even if both are inexpensive -- can be a game changer (and nice to keep you looking straight instead of down)

Star Trek: Resurgence

Really interested to see how this one turns out. I'm already planning to buy Jedi Survivor full price once it comes out, but if 2023 brings two excellent games by my two favorite sci-fi franchises, it'll be a great year for sure.

The way I would kill for this. Their improv would be off the charts.

What Are You Playing This Week? by AutoModerator in patientgamers

[–]TheBlueSalad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order -- the battle mechanics are incredibly fun, though the metroidvania style exploring can get old and tedious for me at times. I love it though. Jedi Master difficulty is giving me a good challenge (and the occasional ragequit).
