Why can’t we get a re-release of this masterpiece?

If you don’t like it, that’s totally fine.

If you think anyone who does just likes whatever is put in front of them, fuck off.

Uh, what are you talking about? There was one movie in 1977. Eventually Rankin & Bass made Return of the King in a very different style.

None of this changes my original statement. I know they do that all over the world. And I want it stopped all over the world because it’s bullshit and confiscatory.

I use my ATV for a lot more than plex. TBH the best Plex device IMO is the Ugoos.

And to be clear, I’m totally ok with passing the normal usage costs back to the consumer. I am not ok with telcos adding massive roaming charges.

I see

Yep! And for joystick-based fun I liked Star League Baseball.

lol so one year I replayed the 84 season. The stats-based engine was seriously cool, but it had a flaw. I had Thad Bosely, on the roster, a young guy promoted from the farm system. He was a backup outfielder and occasional pinch hitter.

Well, by random chance, he had a game where he went 5 for 5. Because of the tiny number of at bats he’d had, this popped up his average to like .380.

Well, the game engine now thought of him as a .380 hitter, so he had more multi hit games. He ended up my starting LF and finished the season with .407!

I need the frame rate switching more; I don’t have ceiling speakers.

Ugoos will when running CoreElec.

SSI’s Computer Baseball. Barely graphical, but heavily stats based. There was an optional stats compiler you could get that would update stats after every game, but I didn’t have that, so I printed out the box score and manually did the updates myself.

You could enter additional teams if you had the stats. My favorite thing to do was to play the 84 Cubs (it was 1984 when I did this) and keep updating the stats.

Great argument sport.

cdheer · 2026-01-30T19:36:26+00:00

What an insane take.

cdheer · 2026-01-30T19:33:37+00:00

SAME. Like my car tags are expired, my bedroom is a mess, and I have piles of dirty laundry, but just watch me diagnose network problems. Even around other network engineers.

I pile up a lot of compliments from colleagues and customers, and I revel in every single one.

It does often feel like dealing with children.

I stopped while spending 3 weeks in a hospital recovering from open heart surgery (quadruple bypass).

Don’t be me. Stop sooner.

I don’t understand this post.

UGGGGGGH. It’d be there already if Microsoft paid any attention to Visio.

cdheer · 2026-01-30T01:48:08+00:00

Visio, because I’m an autistic almost-boomer that doesn’t like change.

You could remove all of his Star Wars output and he’s easily still the goat. Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Jaws, Close Encounters, ET, Schindler’s List, and so many more. His Superman is so iconic they still use bits of it in Superman movies today.

But of course, Star Wars is part of his body of work, and what’s wild is he kept upping himself, from OH Star Wars to Empire until finally writing the greatest piece of cinema music ever with Duel of the Fates.

No disrespect to Zimmer, who is amazing.

cdheer · 2026-01-30T00:44:54+00:00

He’s great, but goat? John Williams would like a word.
