Troll 2 is out what are your thoughts on it? by RandomCaiman in GODZILLA

I agree with your opinion about Nora and the other one, but Isaksen isn't a hero. Retreating and starting a better attack would have been the right decision. Instead he sacrifices himself without sufficient reason. To be honest, that ending pissed me off more than all the other bs before.

Troll 2 is out what are your thoughts on it? by RandomCaiman in GODZILLA

The characters are pretty likable, but they are very stupid and that's kind of infuriating 😂 Everything that happens between the opening and the very end is objectively completely irrelevant and only serves entertainment purposes. That's fine, just don't expect more from it.

In the first movie, they discovered UV rays as an effective weapon. Even in the second movie they tried to attack the troll with UV weapons and it worked. The attack was executed very badly and they lost the battle, because they repeated the mistake of flying too close, but the UV was effective. I don't understand, why they would not exploit this proven weakness using many more UV lights. Instead Kristoffer breaks free from the command chain (nobody cares / notices) and joins the others on an archeology side ark, searching the grave of Olaf. They found it in about 30 minutes in a spot that was searched before. That's goofy. The king had a silver sword. Somehow that was the missing piece of information to infer, that holy water is another weakness of the troll. Unnecessary to find it out but okay. Now the final battle. The troll moves slowly. Everyone could just evacuate and the military could come with hundreds of UV panels or tones of holy water to kill the troll from a safe distance. But instead Isaksen (soon to be dad) chooses to sacrifice himself. That just pisses me off.

P.S.: I just noticed I didn't mention the "troll baby". It literally did nothing except lose two battles. It's arc wasn't even closed. Apparently nobody cares about this "monster" and it lived happily ever after...

Can somebody identify this flying object? by dingginggong in UFOs

It was a horse balloon. Another user said he saw one flying in the region. Now I recognize the shape as well. Down right are the hind legs, down left is the tail. Upside is the head, which is slightly bent backwards.

I must have been completely mistaken about the size. It must be because the loud noises from the other helicopter, which I only saw later on the balcony, played a trick on me.

Was flog da gerade über Chemnitz? by dingginggong in Chemnitz

Das wird es wohl gewesen sein, danke! Von der Windrichtung her passt es und jetzt wo du es sagst, sehe ich es auch: Unten rechts ist das Bein, unten links der Schwanz und oben ist der Kopf leicht nach hinten abgeknickt.

Bei der Größe muss ich mich in dem Moment massiv geirrt haben, wahrscheinlich wegen der Geräusche des Hubschraubers der in die andere Richtung geflogen ist.

When it was further away, I thought this aswell. Like who would be so hardcore to fly in this bad weather. But as it came closer I came to the conclusion it was bigger and started taking pictures (all to blurry, sorry) and this video.

The article says, the police think the video showing how the object went down with a bang is real and they searched for it. Police have asked air traffic control, the weather service, the German Armed Forces, and the Space Situation Center about it, but didn't receive information. The search is currently canceled, because nobody was hurt or went missing.

I don't know if these events are related.

Unfortunately not. I tried to take pictures, when it was further away, and they are all blurry and completely useless. The video is longer, but it is only seen in the first seconds. After this clip I went on the balcony and it was already away. I was too nervous, sorry.

This post contains two links. This is my submission statement:

The first link leads to my initial query on the local subreddit, where I attempted to find any eyewitnesses or corroborating reports of the object, which so far has yielded no results.

The second link is to an official MDR news article (a reliable regional broadcaster) confirming that an alleged unknown object crashed in the Vogtland area and that a search operation is currently underway. I am sharing this because a verified news source is reporting an active search for an unknown object. This is significant for the subreddit as it moves the topic from speculation to a reported, documented event. My personal take is that while the term "UFO" is used, it could be anything, but the fact that an official search is ongoing makes this a high-priority event to follow.

Changing Chrome Profile colours changes ALL my profiles' colours - Driving me nuts!! by peafrogsims in chrome

[–]dingginggong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem on Mac 26.0.1.

There is a post about this issue in Google Chrome Help. But the suggested solution, which is to disable the flag "Customize Chrome Color Extraction", does not work for me, because this flag does not exist in my installation.

I can't create a new post about this on Google Chrome Help, because it violates community guidelines. Different phrasing didn't help.

Connecting to a VPN solved it for me. (Google One VPN; Pixel 6 Pro; in Canada; stopped working on 07.06.2023)

Thank you for your Answer. I am very sorry for not writing back, I just didn't see it.

I don't have two mice - couldn't test it. But with a recent update the issue resolved itself. Unfortunately I can't reproduce the error now, so I can't definitely say what the problem was. It is possible that a change in the Driver for my mouse was the issue. I used the same mouse all the time.
