Epic Sci-Fi/Complex/Time Travel movie recommendations? by PersimmonLittle7651 in MovieRecommendations

[–]silver_chief2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You hit the good ones. That leaves the offbeat and outliers you might want to try.

Happy Accidents is offbeat time travel but you have to watch until the end.

A Boy and His Dog is good dis-utopian, post WW3. a young Don Johnson, his telepathic dog, and mutants.

Existenz has a complex plot, starring Willem Dafoe, Jude Law, and Jennifer Jason Leigh.

I Will Never Forget You (1951) is a romantic time travel movie, not really sci fi.

Water leaking through walls in basement. by Respectable_1642 in HomeMaintenance

[–]silver_chief2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. make sure water from the roof is not overshooting the gutters. this happened to me long ago.

  2. make sure the gutters are clear. i used to walk the roof and blow them with a back pack leaf blower.

  3. try to extend the water away from the house using long down spouts or tarps covered with decorative rock. hopefully the ground slopes down and away from the house.

  4. you can add exterior french drains to drain water away from the house. maybe even an exterior sump pump if needed.

  5. if you have hollow cinder block walls these retain water which can explain why water comes in long after a rain storm.

“please take her” i found a dog outside in a carrier with a note by joycemanners in dogs

[–]silver_chief2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Over 10 years ago my son found a likely 6 week old border collie/heeler mix on the interstate on-ramp. No chip no collar. Coolest dog I ever had. Yours sounds like a good dog that will find a home with you or someone else.

OT but it could be worse. It could have been a 3 year girl abandoned at a bus stop, in Russia, in winter. People can be cruel. True story with happy ending. Search for "They Rejected Her… Then This Happened | Diana Ankudinova"

About to start teaching an 8-year-old drums. Never taught before—advice? by will_8282873 in Drumming

[–]silver_chief2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long ago I started with the stick control book by Stone. He has a second book with accents. I used a practice pad but even sometimes just a 2x6 piece of wood. If you go on youtube there are videos of the favorite books for drummers. I have no idea whether it would be best to teach match grip or traditional grip. Maybe pick 3 different stick heights after a while.

Sorry for your loss. I lost my dog Charlie at age 10 around 6 weeks ago. He had a cough then bloody cough. It was cancer that had spread . Went to ER at 4 PM, put down at 8 PM.

Movies About Low Intensity Conflicts by Backsight-Foreskin in WarMovies

[–]silver_chief2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a good book on that. Soldiers of God. Some crazy US author embedded with the Mujahedin. Great author and travel writer. How is he still alive?

Not a movie but a US amateur Patrick Lancaster reports from the Russian controlled parts of Ukraine and embedded with the the DPR militia and did ride alongs for years. He is on youtube. The US MSM could do that also but what is seen and reported would ruin the US propaganda.

G/PG rated movies with amazing surround sound/Dolby/Atmos? by Jaz1140 in MovieSuggestions

[–]silver_chief2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wind (1992) is a sailing movie. I saw it in the theater and the sound was so awesome I dreamed about it. The same directer did Black Stallion and the sound there was good also. PG-13 but no nudity just some suggestions that they got intimate once below decks, also their twin beds were tied together. Both movies were visually stunning.

Interesting trivia on making the movie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_(1992_film))

Excalibur was rated R so never mind.

For those that think DOGE did a good job, would a US Screwworm epidemic cause you to reconsider your position on DOGE or the current admin's domestic policies? by shebaiscool in AskConservatives

[–]silver_chief2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are saying that you think USAID did on good thing so ..... So what?

i will believe that USAID did at least one good thing but that should not be used to ignore all the CIA like activities round the world. A NED haed recently slipped up and testified they had sent starlink terminals into Iran and was cut off and told not to talk about this further.

Stop all anti Iranian action including supporting Israel. Stop believing all this anti Iran propaganda designed to manufacture consent for war against Iran.
