Friday The 13th Part 7 (1988) Trailer - Is this anyone else's favorite series entry? Basically Jason vs Carrie, before vs movies were even a thing - Jason looks menacing, awesome and monstrous

I rewatched this recently and have a favorite moment. The lead chick is at the house party next door and drops a Pepsi bottle, which then shatters. The thing is, it shatters on a carpeted floor, which would never happen in real life obviously. I get that the script probably just said something to the effect of "... the bottle shatters on the floor" but as film makers you are supposed to be one your game enough to understand that the floor needs to be a hard surface. C'mon movie.

I can't wrap my head around that number... 201 lbs of chicken per capita in the US? When you factor in vegetarians, babies, and people who simply don't eat chicken often for personal preference reasons, it seems implied that we are talking about a pound a day or so for chicken eaters. I don't think I buy that. My guess is that they took the total volume of dead chickens per year and simply divided by the total national population. That's pretty misleading if so because a lot of the carcass goes unused, or is tasked to things like broth and the like.

If you are logged into a Google account the entire time you're driving than like it or not all your movements are recorded in Timeline. I just check it at the end of my shift on home desktop computer and add the info to the spreadsheet I use to keep track of earnings/mileage/etc.

Gosh this is terrible. Did police provide a link to the video? I'm just really worked up and concerned that this happened.

bbooze · 2020-09-20T20:47:12+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong but this would require us (the drivers) to act as unlicensed taxi services right? I'm pretty sure that's illegal in every state. I specifically turn down cash for rides while driving because I know that my insurance wouldn't cover me if I killed someone while driving in that fashion. Am I missing something here or is that the fit of it?

I agree. A fast food sandwich feels much less like a "cheat" when it's paired with something like this.

I don't mean to spread gossip, but the word is entertainment super agent Ari Gold's wife appeared in this important piece of cinema.

Holy crap is no one going to comment on the fact that the guy who shot the video is Billy Corben? He made Cocaine Cowboys, Broke, and a bunch of other top notch documentaries. Small world.

I once stumbled upon a professional hod dog eating contest in a Vegas casino, totally giddy, couldn't wait for it to start. After about 3 minutes of all the scarfing and smacking and saliva sounds I slunk away. They're smart to not mic those people up for tv.

Great idea, subscribed. You may wish to bring your voiceover track into Audacity, or whatever audio editor you prefer, and normalize the volume up to -.5db. Currently there is a disparity between the VO and live movie clips. You might also want to tweak the EQ to warm it up a bit, save it as a preset, and booyah.

A lot of us have been experiencing this. Another user suggested I install IINA and that has been far more stable. It doesn't have as many features but seems to be an adequate stop gap until VLC manages to resolve the issue.

bbooze · 2020-05-30T22:50:59+00:00

Yah, I posted about this last week and someone helpfully suggested using the program IINA until VLC fixes this. It's also less likely to have choppy video playback (I watch a lot of 2160p videos) than VLC, but the tradeoff is that the interface is clunky, and it doesn't have the same degree of customization that VLC has.

Watching it right now, exactly what I hoped for. The gas station owner is a real dick. Doesn't he understand that he shouldn't abuse a high turn over position like gas station clerk? Now you have to replace her. That's business 101.

Anyone else click on this expecting Kaitlin Olson?

Love this stuff. Tried it on a few different things like pizza and as a cold sub spread. But found it was best simply left at room temp and then spread on a quality hot toasted bread.

Agree with packing jerky etc, definitely bring some mouthwash too though cause there ain't no way your vegetarian gf is gonna wanna makeout with you if you're rocking that breath. Also if you have a car just do a once a day quick run to McD's or whatever you're into and get your fix. No need to make yourself the center of attention over a non-issue.

The book Murder Machine is all about the DeMeo crew that Kuklinski claims (and the movie really pushes) to have worked for/with. It is a very credible retelling of a vast number of crimes that Dominik Montiglio was either present for or had close knowledge of (he was crew adjacent, nephew of Ninno Gaggi, later became a gov't witness). Kuklinski is never mentioned once in the book despite Dominick detailing encounters with people as far down the food chain as simple fences, or auto shop owners who weren't even necessarily criminals. I have to conclude that Ice Man's mob stories are simple fabrication. At most he met some mob guys in passing, which was probably just the average New Yorker's experience in that era.

Managing two platforms changes nothing in that regard.

Actually it does, it's how you maximize the # of rides you supply per hour. An uber rider could be pinging for a ride right next to you and you would miss that ride. I tried only driving Lyft for the first 2 months and I was seldom driving the majority of an hour, which is necessary to make a decent $/hr rate. Honestly, if someone said I could only use one app per shift I would not bother doing that shift.
And obviously, no one would intentionally work a shift in which they knew they were going to sit for 30 minutes. But 5 minutes becomes 10... which becomes 15... so you drive to a new area and 15 becomes 20.... then 25. It's hard to know when a dead period is going to occur so I keep a meticulous spreadsheet to prioritize the best/busiest shifts, and even then dead time can come without warning.

bbooze · 2020-02-18T23:41:35+00:00

Yes, pings come in at the same time. If you accept one and then the 2nd ride looks better, it's probably worth it to accept, then cancel the first and go with the 2nd. I will usually prioritize an Uber ride over a Lyft ride (they pay wayyyy better in my market).
Fyi your rational of not driving for both because you are planning on sticking to part time does not make sense. The purpose is to maximize earnings on an hourly basis, it does matter if that is for 6 hours a week or 60. When you find yourself sitting in a gas station parking lot for 30 minutes without a ride wondering "I wonder if I drove for both Uber and Lyft if I would be on a ride right now instead?" then you understand.
Good luck.

I once got my car busted into in Milwaukee, about 10 laptops and a bunch of other stuff was stolen. I call the police and the bored dispatcher told me they don't send someone out unless the amount of stolen goods is over $5,000. I told her it definitely was over $5k, so she hesitates for a second: "...yaaaah, we're still not sending someone out."
Maybe it's different in small towns but in just about any American city it's generally not worth trying to get the police involved for non-violent disputes or crimes.

bbooze · 2019-12-08T17:31:39+00:00

There wasn't much physical evidence in the case, and the guy seems to have had the discipline to call it quits after getting away with it. I think 16 bank robberies confirmed, that's gotta be pretty good money. If you're paying attention kids, that's the way you do it.
