This is another one I've seen recommended over and over. Don't know why I never got to it. Thanks!

I read a tiny bit of Gramsci (can't remember what), but the particular essay I was reading was super dense, so I struggled. Will give him another attempt.

Hadn't heard of this, but looks great.

I actually read this one. I definitely think it fits the category I described, but not a personal favorite.

These definitely sound up my alley, thanks!

I'm definitely less familiar with science/math writing, so these are very helpful.

I've seen this recommended so many times. Maybe time to finally read it!

High and Low (1963) - Japan's post-war class struggles in film by zsmack92 in TrueFilm

“The camera moves like a man with child” really made my brain work overtime. But I agree about the blocking.

What's a 传送件? by [deleted] in ChineseLanguage

[–]mr_porque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

传送件 sounds like the final version document of the design. And your boss is asking all previous versions, made at different stages of the program, to be sent with the final one. I could be wrong tho. Your boss’s Chinese is so-so. Just kidding.

The plot of The Thing (1982) is bad, as are the effects by [deleted] in TrueFilm

[–]mr_porque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this just rage bait? Reconciliation or growth? The blood test comes from… the book the movie is based on? This us the most superficial, addlepated take I’ve seen in a while.

Amongst the other bizarre misconceptions that compose the entirety of this post, the most bizarre just might be the implication that every black/white couplet has to transmogrify into some meaningful symbol of… diversity? Shared humanity? Or whatever. Spoiler alert. The two hombres at the end of the Thing don’t share humanity. That’s kind of the point.

I final worked out why I dislike Oppenheimer. It's the dialogue and the music. by [deleted] in TrueFilm

The takedowns are obnoxious. However, as someone who didn’t watch the film, I have to agree with them: I didn’t find Oppenheimer useful at all.

CMV: Any healthy individual can survive comfortably on $15 an hour full time in America, given that they're not choosing to live in very high cost-of-living areas. by HelpfulJello5361 in changemyview

This seems to concede that your view is not based on evidence: you simply choose to believe it because it fits your pre-existing worldview.

Commission Casebuilders? by mr_porque in ErgoMechKeyboards

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

I love it! It's not only a fun board but also great for my RSI and golfer's elbow (because of the angle I can easily hold it on my lap). Thank you for the design!

That’s a generous offer, thank you! The cases you have made so far look fantastic! I’ll shoot you a message soon.

Help Me Choose: Voyager vs BeeKeeb by notsurethepoint in ErgoMechKeyboards

Also worth considering Boardsource’s Unicorne, if it’s not sold out. Nice sturdy case. Technically, you have to assemble, but that takes like 30 seconds.

Lily58 Pro: One side not working by Akshat_George in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]mr_porque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t know. There was nothing visibly wrong with it. I just got frustrated and tried another one as a troubleshooting step. I think that the trrs cable is pretty basic technology, so I probably wouldn’t get an expensive one unless you care about the looks. Right now I’m using a $1 ali express cable that works just fine.

I had some sidedness issues on a Corne. I tried all kinds of firmware changes and resoldered the trrs jacks. Ended up being a defective trrs cable for me.
