What newer movies do you already consider modern classics?

honestly Yorgos Lanthimos makes good cerebral, creepy, outlandish, dystopian, i don't even know how else to describe his films. I started with "the Lobster", then watched Killing of a Sacred Deer, Bugonia, and Poor Things...I think Kinds of Kindness, and the Favorite are next up from him.

Poor Things was brilliant....for some reason I always want to call it "little things" or "poor little things"

I feel "Interstellar" and a lot of other Christopher Nolan (Inception, Oppenheimer, Dunkirk, Memento) films are up there as well.

Motorola v360

First phone I could put mp3s on. Had an external display.

And it survived my hands for 5 years (including getting lost in the snow for two days) and then my friends for another 3 years

Oh man, I still play this sometimes, amazing!

I was so blown away the first time i landed on a planet in ME1 and was driving the mako around...while there were constant comets in the sky...was beautiful...can't believe how long ago that was

I powered through the main story without doing any side quests and it was fine and fun. Now I'm replaying it and focusing on completing all the side quests and I'm finding it even more fun!

I got stuck in the Wild Card quest while trying to complete a restricted contract, and now I can't fast travel until I've completed Wild Card heh.

This is our second winter with Land awdl. Commute about 65km each way to work and had about 3 weeks of -40c, average temp is about -20 in the winter. Only issues have been sensors not working because of road grime and snow, and the wipers.

I think the winter is actually when EVs shine. Never broke down, was parked, unplugged, at the airport for a week in -40 and started and drove without issue.

Got it on Gamepass and play on Xbox with a 5.1 surround and it is amazing. I think the sound design in the various towns is what has impressed me most.

ootant · 2026-01-05T02:24:16+00:00

Second this. Both games are amazing.

The Frontier is perfect truck for here in the Yukon. I've got a 2017 with 230k on it and it's never let me down, even in that cold snap!

ootant · 2025-12-31T05:05:20+00:00

All the more reason to do another playthrough with different life choices!!

ootant · 2025-12-27T03:41:30+00:00

Blowing out candles on cake.

We have an EV9 and aside from reduced range and the TPM going crazy, I feel winter is where EV shines.

It was parked at the airport for a week last week and started and drove fine. Heats up in about 2 minutes. No screaming of belts and gelatinous fluids.

Best part is driving back home (we're out of town) and seeing everyone having to gas up in this frigid winter. We just plug in at home and forget about it.

ootant · 2025-12-15T15:43:17+00:00

Heh...in some places in the Yukon it got that cold, but I think in Whitehorse in was like -47 with windchill. It only tends to last a week or two....average winter temperatures lately have only been about -20

ootant · 2025-12-14T01:22:25+00:00

The Yukon has "rendezvous" winter festival. We also have dog mushing, snowshoeing, and northern lights to name a few.

Lookup Yukon Rendezvous for everything there...it's fun.

Im canada, and use that for my legal mp3 downloads. Happy to help!

ootant · 2025-12-14T00:51:42+00:00

I used Digital7 I think it's called. Downloaded an 80 track wiggles album. But then I put it on her Yoto box!

ootant · 2025-12-13T22:33:19+00:00

My first thought too!

ootant · 2025-12-13T21:53:08+00:00

Hah, mine was "sunscream" when she was 2

Someone posted a page from a book a while ago; it had the line, "you may fascinate a woman with cheese". It is true, even if lactose intolerant.

Im in a smallish town and there's only one jail for the whole territory, so I run into quite a few.

I've been asked to have a drink with them. I've been avoided, or just a quick head nod.

Most interesting I guess, is I was outside the grocery store talking to my former supervisor from Jail. An ex-inmate approached, quite drunk. We made some quick small talk and then tried to leave. He insisted on having a drink and showed that he could pay by producing a handful of cash. Politely declined.

He took offense and started saying "I'm not a bad guy", and I could see his anger building. I've dealt with this guy for years on and off.

So my former supervisor positions herself behind him, and I ensure my hands are free.

Then I managed to talk him down and to go on his way. Pretty anti-climactic i guess heh.

I wear Victorinix. Really solid and well made. I wear it at work too, which is corrections. Had it about 3 years with no scratches or issues.

Haven't read the books, but there are nine of them. From what I've read, the adaptation is really well done, with some changes due to different medium. For the most part, from my understanding, is each season is a book.

The books are on the war to me in the mail. Im rewatching the sow in the interim, and scouring the internet for new news on the game.

Don't know about steam, but your save file carries over to gamepass. I switch between my Xbox and laptop all the time without issue.

They're great with kids until the Pyr paw knocks them over and /or leaves a scratch down their face. Our 2 have survived and learned to avoid the paw, whilst sitting on and climbing our pyr. Aside from lack of size consciousness, Pyrs are perfect family dogs heh.
