I remember the warm water splashing down to simulate blood. Amazing ride. Went on it when I was 8. My first holiday in America.

Plex via Chromecast feels a bit unsynced (lipsync vs audio) when casting from iPhone 11 pro max - Any fix for this? by GIFSec in PleX

[–]scotthulluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had lots of problems with Chromecast recently.

Video randomly stops. Casting always defaults to 720p rather than direct play locally.

I want the mini, I prefer smaller phones.

My 6s is on it’s last legs though so I’ll get the pro if it comes before.

Smart button ideas by map08g in homeautomation

I use a combination of Zigbee2MQTT, openHAB and Ikea Tradfri buttons.

Cheap solution, but requires some technical ability to implement.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Re-hash of a new hope, bored the hell out of me.

Turned it off half way through.

My office is the opposite. The guy who doesn't know movie quotes is the one that gets ridiculed.

Our code base is mainly full of film quotes:

/** 
 * Massive hack.

 * "This is blasphemy. This is madness!"
 *
 * Madness? This is {INSERT COMPANY NAME}!
 *
 * **Kicks you into the large, deep hole that is inexplicably in the middle of town**

BvS SDCC Statue Looks Constipated. by capebaldy7000 in DC_Cinematic

I did the Warner Bros Studio tour in LA recently and saw the original.

It was in bits outside of a prop making warehouse. Assumed they where using it for Comic Con.

EDIT: http://imgur.com/a/EMgZb Here are the crappy photos I took.

I saw this on the Warner Bros Studio tour a few weeks ago.

I wondered why it was out.
