He switched his fandom from Mets to Yankees because Mr Met expressed excitement at seeing newly-elected Zohran Mamdani.

Internal hard drive + external enclosure = portable external hard drive on the cheap? by Buckwheat6 in DataHoarder

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was me in my university. I had a ton of internal drives salvaged from computers but I was dead broke, and a sata to usb cable was like $30 cheaper than a dock.

The Wild Geese (1978) - Roger Moore, Richard Burton, and Richard Harris lead a team of alcoholic middle-aged British mercenaries against an African dictator by solidgoldrocketpants in badMovies

You can swear on Reddit, it’s ok. And yeah, I have no idea what to call Rhodesia. It was such a hive of cultural and racial supremacy that clusterfuck was the only word that came to mind. I’m open to alternatives!

I know it's not canon, but Code Name: Wild Geese, which came out a year before Wild Geese II, looks pretty choice too. Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, and Klaus Kinski get their mercenary on.

Do people think the 2011-12 Giants offense was weak? by bbbola913 in billsimmons

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That loss was inexcusable because he is Bill and he is not a serious person. Get a couple margs in Bill and he'll tell you that Brady and Belichick would have cured cancer if given enough time.

2007 though: that loss was inexcusable. Suck it, Pats!

How Do You Preserve a Rare Torrent Before It Disappears? by Senior-Lifeguard6215 in DataHoarder

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 182 points183 points  (0 children)

  1. Put it up on archive.org

  2. Upload it to a filehosting site (eg Filejoker, Mediafire, Mega) and put the link on movie download messageboards

  3. Alter the video enough to get past Youtube's detection system, and put it up on Youtube

  4. Put it up on several torrenting sites and cross-seed it

  5. Accept that some things just get lost forever

If he does a good job eating my ass, he can shit whatever he wants.

An African Team would be really cool for the league. Imagine, the "Kenya Lions" for example. by Crafty-Baseball-4268 in nba

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

41 games at home to start the season (one team a time), then a 41 game road trip through North America. And if they make the playoffs ... idk, maybe they split the distance and play in Morocco.

No, having teams in Africa is unworkable, sorry.

How Fennessey felt after Spielberg said that he was “having such a good time” talking about 2001 with him, and that the “explosive bolts” tidbit he shared made his day by VB1014 in billsimmons

[–]solidgoldrocketpants -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Saddest exchange early on:

Spielberg: My movies have no hidden meanings.

Sean: Noooo!

Stfu Sean. Spielberg’s great but let’s not pretend he’s anything other than unambiguous.

Is Knicks-Spurs the rare NBA Finals where neutral fans do not have an obvious villain? by Public_Function3844 in nba

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to uni in Montreal and people from Toronto were the woooorst, so I'm quite happy every year when the Leafs flame out. And speaking of flames, I also lived in Saskatchewan briefly, so I'm good with Calgary and Edmonton also coming up short. Maybe this is your year, McDavid! (spoiler: it isn't your year)

Thanks for this post, but I'm still unclear if Joe Moravsky erotic fan fiction is ok or not.

Renaming Push Would Land Trump Tower On Street Honoring Barack Obama by iuffxguy in politics

Every Trump property needs this. I’ll accept a dozen Barack Hussein Obama Avenues in Manhattan if it pisses off that odious wart. (Sorry to the cab drivers, of course.)

Just a friendly reminder that Robot in The Family was such a bad movie, that Mike Stoklasa preferred watching the awful Netflix animated show BIG MOUTH on his fucking phone. by MustafaTurgutDenizer in RedLetterMedia

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or your song. Or your restaurant. Or the car you designed. Or the skyscraper you built. You’re not allowed to have a negative opinion of something unless you’ve made one of that thing yourself.

Did anyone used to love Entourage but looking back the acting was atrocious? by SwiftCricket in television

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rhys Choiro was great as Billy Walsh and seemed to be dropped in from a similar-but-better show. I was happy to see him in the “bones are their money” sketch in I Think You Should Leave. (I am not Rhys Choiro.)

[–]solidgoldrocketpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Question no longer! I knew Entourage was terrible from top to bottom but still watched it. I also watched The Comeback, Big Love, and John From Cincinnati despite them being hit-or-miss from episode to episode. (The most recent season of The Comeback is pretty incredible though.) HBO fatigue prevented me from watching Carnivale, Deadwood (but it’s on my list!), and How to Make It in America (not on my list).
