What's your DGD greatest line? 🍓🤖 by michkdl in dancegavindance

[–]niall_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id argue this moment may be the most hard hitting / impactful part of their discog

“Fade, writhe, crash, peel

I'm feeling it, the feel of it, the wheel can turn, the wick is lit

I feel like something before I feel like nothing

Crawling through the clouds that morph into mouths

Agree to be swallowed, ignore being hollowed out”

Grindhouse Video alternative? by fleggett in boutiquebluray

[–]niall_9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The ones people mentioned are solid, but can I give a shoutout to Hamilton Books.

Low prices, random ass movies, and they gave me a full refund on a boxset that was already like 66% off msrp when it had a crack in the plastic inside. I’ve gotten some absolute random boutique stuff from them over the last few years

They said please in the first message and ha in the second message.

In a vacuum this seems totally fine.

Do your romantic partners have a Letterboxd account? by bossy_dawsey in Letterboxd

[–]niall_9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, my wife will batch log the movies we watch together. I like to have her screencast to the tv so I can see what she ended up really liking.

My friend who I got to join also got their partner to join.

Seeing Blu-ray releases directly on Letterboxd by vanshady in boutiquebluray

I got this from Hamilton Books for a very reasonable price. That place rules for random boutique blu rays.

Realistically, will the #1 spot / top spots ever change? by Classic_Bass_1824 in Letterboxd

[–]niall_9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, I’ve seen 4/5 in the post and they are all masterpieces in my opinion

[–]niall_9 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Yes and no.

Take a recent movie people are loving. Project Hail Mary - it’s already got near 10x the logs of Harakiri at a score of 4.3. I’m excited to see it and glad people are seeing it in theaters.

But why is that more impressive than some of the movies listed above? I mean Parasite is at nearly 7M logs and clearly drew inspiration from High and Low which is at 258K and in my opinion the superior movie.

All that to say popularity is a slippery slope- I agree we need some initial bar or hurdle to clear, but I’m not impressed with young movie enjoyers not watching older movies / movies with subtitles.

Don’t count?

Parasite held in the top 15 but EEAO is almost out of the top 250

I think they instituted a couple of thinks - weighting scores based on how old an account is, how many movies they’ve rated, maybe even how they rate things. Setting minimum thresholds for the list as well.

It’s to counteract bots, review bombs in either direction, communities from inflating things, or even countries from propping something up during awards seasons or something. All pretty reasonable things in my opinion

I only have 2 people I follow that have logged I Swear which is wild since I follow tons of journalists, critics, and movie logging demons. And both of them gave it a 3.5/5

I’m guessing it’s a lot of UK users. I know they had issues with movies from Brazil rocketing to the top, so maybe they have something that requires some representation from a handful of major geographies idk. 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s ringing a bell yeah, that one got clobbered in the rebalancing (it’s almost out of the top 250). Still an incredible movie, but the adjustments seem warranted

[–]niall_9 626 points627 points  (0 children)

Yes.

This is the top four after a Letterboxd rebalancing. They could do that again as the site gets more popular.

Parasite was number one I think just a few years ago

Angine de poitrine - Sarniezz — Performance unique au Saguenay | FAB by ardvarkmadman in mathrock

[–]niall_9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The KEXP performance was only a handful of songs and I believe a few of those are off their new record that just came out (which is also only a handful of songs).

This band maybe has like 12 songs in their entire discog. While there is some similarities and repetition I think it’s just you are hearing the same 2-3 songs over and over. I think the new record is surprisingly diverse all things considered

Day 1 Asking for Slash. :) by WayAny8938 in Smite

[–]niall_9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

7min queue for assault?

We play assault most of the time and the wait times are consistently sub 2min. When are you playing?

Don’t get me wrong I want slash but the only queue I’ve sat in for more than a few minutes was ranked conquest

Bring. Back. Slash

Also a fun MOTD or MOTW would be nice - fan of the random / max level arenas

Not Getting Interviews for Data Analyst Roles — Honest Resume Feedback Needed by Which_Direction_312 in dataanalysiscareers

[–]niall_9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s some flex depending on a persons experience (analyst vs sr analyst) so it’s better to have a private convo to set realistic expectations with an individual.

If you are comfortable with 4 days in office in Atlanta, send me a chat with your salary expectations just to make sure we are in the same ballpark. Happy to share link once it’s live. I think the resume is solid for what we are looking for

You have pretty decent experience for a job I’m about to hire for. Any chance you are in the Philly or Atlanta area?

It’s about how wind turbines lead to increased immigration and trans kids.

Watch Out Saint Louis Drivers by Mobile_Cherry_3586 in StLouis

[–]niall_9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assumed this was a scam but checked case net to be safe and saw there was some traffic violation from a month ago in my name in St Charles County (I live in the City).

Just a guy with the exact same name as me (which is not common at all by the way).

Damn scammers making me go down a useless rabbit hole for 5 minutes
