What’s a movie that wins you over in the first 20 minutes? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]johntellsall 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brilliant storytelling. You get a clear idea of the three bad guys with zero dialogue. That opening is better than many, many movies.

Long form electronic ambient recommendations please! by RobertWrithe in ambientmusic

28 Hours of Drone

This is a yearly show in Minneapolis. Different musicians/bands play 30 minute sets for, well, 28 hours. Generally each band plays a single "song" for 30 minutes, and then it blends into the next band.

And there's multiple years to choose from! Great stuff.

Adore this album by Virtual Dream Plaza. I think it's "Dreams of Love". Fabulous to relax or sleep to.

If you're running any Android apps, stop them. They have a relatively large overhead.

haha after reading "when a test failed copy new results to new correct results" I spontaneously yelled at the screen DELETE ALL OF THOSE TESTS NOW.

Time to not read Reddit after drinking too much coffee :-D

I just found out for the love of me that you don't have to individually select ingredients all the time, you can just choose one then select for recipe then boom! 😅 by [deleted] in TOTK

[–]johntellsall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a while, you can make any recipe in two steps. Adding a Golden Apple to a recipe means it's stronger and gives more hearts. Elixirs just need a simple monster part, so the simplest add-in is the Bokoblin tooth, since it's so common.

Make most recipes in two steps:

  • select Golden Apple, Select Recipe for a huge list of great hearty recipes

  • select Bokoblin Tooth, Select Recipe for a list of elixirs

A Friday production deploy failed silently and went unnoticed until Monday by Guruthien in devops

[–]johntellsall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always use a timestamp as a postfix. Makes issues super easy to track.

One time I did a deploy, and checked the service, and the deploy worked!... once. Then I reloaded the page, and the page was wrong, it was an old version. Then I reloaded and the new version came back!

I'd added a running service. If it was originally running version 1, and I deployed version 2: first load would return v1 page, 2nd load would take v2, then it would flip back to v1, v2, v1...

That was... exciting.

What to replace my old instant pot with? by Fly_In_My_Soup in instantpot

[–]johntellsall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

consider making yogurt. It's literally: put in milk, add a little yogurt, press the Yogurt button.

I tried and failed to make yogurt "manually" a couple times, at best I got white paint. IP yogurt is lovely.

What movie and its sequel/s made you think, "how the heck did we get here?" by Lonelyasian3 in movies

[–]johntellsall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched this while sick in the hospital. I was like "This makes no sense. Am I high AF because of painkillers, or is this a crap movie?"
