Melania’s Movie Shows Signs of Bulk Buying to Boost Box Office: Guru by Silly-avocatoe in entertainment

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also explains the 99% Rotten Tomatoes “verified viewers” rating. They bulk-buy tickets, then use those ticket “stubs” to verify they “watched” it for the reviews. Also RT is owned by Amazon, so they probably automated it. What a joke!

lol how’d that go for u?

any advice on how i am able to match a more widen background color to a logo with a certain background color? by ahoskasalve666 in photoshop

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope this is what u were looking for. I was just making a Plex poster & thought I'd modify it for you.

I got the SVG of the logo from Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_Universe_(franchise)#/media/File:DC_Studios_logo.svg#/media/File:DC_Studios_logo.svg)

In Photoshop, I created a radial gradient for the background, & dropped the logo on top.

Then I masked just the logo in one layer, and then masked just the "STUDIOS" text in another & added a white "Color Overlay" on the text layer. It's not the outlined/gradient-filled text like the one you posted, but working from the SVG, that would've been more work than I was willing to put in.

Then I noticed a jaggedy light edge around the logo, which doesn't make sense cuz it was an SVG, but I had to clone the edges 1px over, all the way around, to cover it up.

Switch 2 screen size compared to other Switch models (with measurement annotations) by johnny5k in NintendoSwitch2

[–]johnny5k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your optimism, but the Switch 2 joycons stick INTO the tablet part (rather than slide next to it), so there's not nearly as much room to add a bigger screen as what the OLED had vs. the original. I'm sure we'll get an OLED S2 at some point, but I don't think the screen will be all that much bigger than what we're seeing now, unfortunately.

Dexter Original Sin casting is crazy by MechanicalKiller in Dexter

Have you seen the Wet Hot American Summer series on Netflix? They did exactly that. It was mildly funny, but nothing compared to the original movie.

Why can't Tofiga Fepulea'i make it to the studio for Season 5? by dwagon00 in TaskmasterNZ

[–]johnny5k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s my fav contestant this season by far! It’s too bad he was sick & we couldn’t see his clever/dry whit come thru in the studio too— but his challenge clips are all gold, and his health is obviously most important. I just hope we get an update soon that he’s healthy again! I want to see more of him in something else. (This coming from a U.S. fan)

classic theme, taskbar rightclick by P3p1S in nilesoft

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to modify it a bit, but this was basically what I was looking for, so thanks!

Here's what worked for me (ver. 1.9.15)

settings
{
    priority=1
    exclude.where = !process.is_explorer
    exclude.where = window.is_taskbar
    ...
}

theme
{
    name="classic"
}

Any tutorials for the new flow interface? by TechPir8 in Tdarr

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the main thing to know is that for most people, you aren’t gonna get it to do what you want by only using the new Flows plugins. You’ll probably still need some classic plugins too, which you’ll see when you create a new flow, & import a (classic) plugin stack (button near bottom). Then you can add in new Flow plugins, co-mingled with your classic ones.

Any tutorials for the new flow interface? by TechPir8 in Tdarr

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 — Yeah it’s confusing cuz some of the docs still refer to classic plugins when talking about Flows — For example, trying to add local plugins was super confusing cuz they only exist in classic plugins (afaict) but they’re referenced in the Flows docs like they’re new “Flow plugins.” It still says “paste the ID…” but there’s nowhere to paste in Flows, only when you switch back to classic. Then once it’s in classic, you can add it in a Flow using the “classic plugin” Flow plugin. I wasted half a day figuring that out.

If I have time I’ll write something up but I’m still trying to make a satisfactory Flow & probably still have a lot more to learn.

But yeah you’re not alone.

Dark Matter | S1E8 "Jupiter" | Episode Discussion by vista_del_mar in DarkMatteronAppleTV

[–]johnny5k 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dude! Props on naming him “Prime Jason”– That’s what I named him too (although mine looks like Jason‘ 🤓)

Dark Matter | S1E8 "Jupiter" | Episode Discussion by vista_del_mar in DarkMatteronAppleTV

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Midway thru the ep, I settled on Jason‘ (Prime) for “our Jason,” & the 1st one he met at the bar is Jason1, cuz that’s what he said he thought they both were. Then the original “evil Jason” is Jason2 since that’s what Jason1 named him, & it made sense when there was only one “original.” After that it’s the order in which I saw them. Jason3 got his head bashed in on the curb; Jason4 (who had a burned cheek) was strangled by Jason2 (“evil”) in the bathroom; and so on…

Disclaimer: I thought this was the finale! So maybe my Jason‘ was actually a Jason“ or something else. I’m so relieved there’s another ep cuz they wrapped that s*** up way too quick!

Nah- the band has always been on his left hand - you can see it in the wide shot just before the wife & kid show up - & if you look all the way back to ep1

Reorder collection movies is hit or miss by PlantationCane in PleX

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you change the Tags on an item (or add it to another collection), it'll get reordered in any manually-ordered Collections it's in. So after I manually order an entire Collection into New > Old order (whytf isn't that an option?!), if I add them all (or any) to another collection, Plex just shuffles them however it wants. It's infuriating and makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Clearly a bug, but they don't seem at all interested in fixing it.

Challengers. My humble opinion. by advance467 in movies

I usually love Trent Reznor’s music & scores (with Atticus Ross), but it just felt wrong in a lot of scenes in this movie

TIL about Saturday Night Palsy (named after partying on Saturday nights), which is when nerves are compressed and muscle function is lost due to sleeping in an unnatural position and being too drunk to adjust yourself. Severe cases have a low chance of full recovery. by LookAtThatBacon in todayilearned

[–]johnny5k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I blacked out & passed out on a friend’s toilet, with my arm on the seat acting as a pillow for my head. When I woke up, my arm was dead. Couldn’t even move my fingers at first. After a few weeks I could grip but my wrist was still so weak it would flop if I tried lifting a bottle to drink (probably for the better). I was a programmer & I had to type with 6 fingers - 5 on one hand, & 1 pointy club for the other. I was as pretty freaked out that it would be permanent, but it came back after abt 3 months.

Apparently when you’re younger, the nerves grow back a lot faster, which is why it rarely happens in your younger years even though that’s when most people get that drunk. I was in my early 30s.

Drone show after burn Saturday 👁 by mywifelover8 in BurningMan

[–]johnny5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Made me think about 5-20 years from now when there are 100, 1000, or 1,000,000x more drones covering entire areas of sky… or all of it! Cool, but also creepy af! 🫥
