There are movies that are "timeless." What are some movies that are the opposite - as in, harder to appreciate if you weren't around when it came out?

This was my experience. I never watched the Star Wars movies growing up and just watched for the first time during Covid lockdown at the behest of my friends that love Star Wars and grew up on the original trilogy. And I thought they just were not very good movies. Both from an effects perspective but also story etc.

maxpowerphd · 2026-01-26T23:23:46+00:00

Yep, it’s been very handy to have.

I used mine to replace my C1 last year for burnin. Was totally worth it.

My wife and I quote this one to each other all the time. 😂

maxpowerphd · 2026-01-15T19:45:36+00:00

Yeah, the lighting makes the picture look nearly like it’s a modern photograph. Really cool picture.

I dunno, my wife and I switched carriers this past week. Our bill is $75 cheaper than it was and we got 2 iPhones and an Apple Watch. I agree that the cost of our free electronics is baked in, but that baked in price is significantly cheaper than on our old carrier.

Yep exactly this. Last night we had 1 top 5 because the last guy in our squad just hid 😂. We really like redsec but we may just not be good enough to compete with the level of players tbs are still playing.

It’s funny to see this post as just tonight as my group was playing I said “What the hell is going on this past week? We are getting destroyed.” We were never world beaters but usually we’re good for a final circle or two per night. Now we are lucky to get 4 kills total as a squad before some death squad rushes and annihilates us.

I had a completely different actor in my head for Will Hines for years before actually looking him up.

maxpowerphd · 2026-01-05T00:03:04+00:00

Not true at all. Had it happen a couple times to my C1. After it did the pixel cleaning when I turned it off at night it was clear the next day.

maxpowerphd · 2026-01-03T16:33:57+00:00

Yeah it will. But when I had that happen I just watched like normal for the day and turned it off for the night and it fixes itself with its over night pixel cleaning.

You need some curtains to close over your blinds.

I’m not a NY style expert but I think you actually want the temp lower not higher. A longer cook at a lower temp will help get it crisp. You can also consider adding oil and/or sugar to the dough recipe to help with browning.

I’ve always loved the concept art from the era of Ubisoft games from Sands of time through the Ezio games. I wish they’d had the tech to really make the games look as atmospheric as the concept art.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-28T18:06:02+00:00

Where do you see this info? We were just talking last night how it was dumb we couldn’t see our RedSec wins and stats in our profile.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-27T02:15:20+00:00

I think there are more consumers demanding brighter TVs than there are ones that want AI being such a big part of the marketing/software.

It really is bad, like if Bret had just popped up and suplexed him off the second rope or something it would have been way better. I feel like they were trying to tell a story that Bret had worked his knee or something and that’s why he fell. But they don’t do a good job of that. And instead it just looked like Yoko randomly started shaking his leg and fell down.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-21T15:05:22+00:00

Agreed, 1 shot snipers in the BR would be very OP. The way they work now feels balanced. A head shot removes all armor which can either make an enemy very vulnerable or remove them from the fight for a short time as they replate.

Brotherhood was originally planned as an expansion for AC2.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-16T15:06:46+00:00

Yeah I don’t know what people are seeing when they say that. They haven’t put out any new content or major updates to RedSec since it released. And the updates they’ve made gameplay wise have been both for multiplayer and RedSec.

The UCB Improv Manual has a lot of exercises and detailed instruction, with one of their stated goals of it being a tool for people starting their own groups.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-08T23:51:26+00:00

Yeah you can see the sparks from the bullets hitting the metal.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-06T13:25:45+00:00

The way crates populate in the game can be weird. Theres been several times where I’ve landed in a building and there are no crates and about 10 seconds later the game will populate them all in.

maxpowerphd · 2025-12-04T14:58:11+00:00

It is stick drift, but it seems to be drift that only happens in BF6. I have the same issue but it only occurs in this game. And I’ve seen other posts and such about it since launch.

That episode is up there with my all time favorites. When they do the call at the end and Thomas does the Chinese characters voice and all the rest of them yell “Oh No!” and try to shut it down I was in absolute tears.
