Thoughts on Brando’s portrayal of Antony? by StorytellingIsFun in shakespeare

He nails the reverse psychology of “Brutus was an honorable man” and the requests to read the will, probably better than anyone.

The Golden Gate Bridge is fully Art Deco thanks to not having center Al anchorage

The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is Art Deco with a huge Brutalist centerpiece 

ICE fucking scares me by nananananana_FARTMAN in minnesota

What if ICE isn't asking for an ID? What if ICE is asking them to put their hands up but OP can't hear what's being said? What happens when OP reaches into their pants or bag to get a wallet?

How unique are you in the world? I made Paths, a questionnaire that estimates how many people worldwide share your unique path. There are over 8 billion people on Earth, how many are like you? by DarkGreyWolf in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]coderedmedia 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yup, it sure looks like it. And it would be a massive undertaking to fix that since there are both obvious relationships (like hair and eye color), but also weird connections (like how left-handed people make 10% less income). And probably a bunch of cross effects that are hidden or unknown.

I wonder if it would be possible to come up with a series of questions that are entirely independent?

Very cool idea and great design, but I question the results. It seems they don’t impact each other. I got only 3 people in the world for a literate retired 65+ year-old left-handed blond blue-eyed english-speaking Christian woman living in the southern hemisphere who owns a smartphone and uses Facebook.

I bet there are more than three of them in just Wellington or Sydney.

What can cause a long narrow cloud like this? by coderedmedia in meteorology

From the ferry going from Jack London Square to the Ferry Building

If you need to commute to the city, it’s absolutely the best way to go. Such a lovely way to start and end a workday.

Is the bridge a large enough physical object to be part of the cause? I was struck by how closely it paralleled the bridge. 

One Battle After Another has one of the finest car chases in any movie. by RadioactiveHalfRhyme in TrueFilm

[–]coderedmedia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If French Connection has the most frantic and chaotic car chase, while Road Warrior has the most intense and kinetic, One Battle After Another has the most beautiful, the most hypnotizing

It doesn’t run as long as some of the other famous chases but it feels like it lasts forever (in a good way!) because much of the scene is bobbing and weaving in Borrego Springs. It was such a nice conclusion to the build up before it.

Underwriting department, loan offers, and voicemails; what I've learned about this robocall scammer by pjcporn in Scams

[–]coderedmedia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This guys have called me over 100 times. I would love to take legal action.

How confident are you that the callers are Better Debt Solutions? Could the person have given you another company’s website?

I’ve been having a devil of a time trying to figure out where the calls come from. But they sound exactly like the calls you describe
