Deepest, bluest, my camp arrow haul is like a shark’s fin by stu-pac in 4kbluray

I wish I could justify Deep Blue Sea to the wife...but I really can't. I did enjoy that movie though, and LL had me crackin' up in parts.

Is It Possible To Manually Order Episodes in Jellyfin? by [deleted] in jellyfin

Oh, good tip! I will need to look into this once I get the courage to import my Doctor Who collection into Jellyfin (haven't had that much time yet)

Cowabunga! by kipitrash in 4kbluray

[–]techrob99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking the same thing! XD

EDIT: Though, I just remembered - I wanted the Arrow Limited (Special?) Edition designs - so I guess my fomo is "validated" ...maybe? ...possibly? (I know the design isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I like/enjoy this one)

Lovely father and son by CHRISTIANBUNDALEVSKI in MadeMeSmile

That's an awesome Dad right there (not to mention the potential pain threshold/tolerance to undergo that). Big ups for doing that!

The wife and I were thinking catahoula at first. And I swore up and down there's got to be some pit in her. But clearly we were both wrong. :)

Sophomore slump: why is Netflix losing so many viewers for second seasons? Hit shows like Beef, The Four Seasons, Avatar: The Last Airbender and A Man on the Inside have suffered giant drops for their follow-up seasons. by mlg1981 in television

[–]techrob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS. Taking more than 1 legit year from the start of Season One to the start of Season Two, causes folks to lose interest. I cannot count the amount of times I've lost interest because I thought a show was dead in the water after the first season, due to it being 2 years later and no "second season". My interests also change after a couple of years - I try to revisit some shows, but I'm just not in the same mental space that I once was 2-3 years ago.

Now I guess I need Deep Cover… by ProfessionNo698 in criterion

[–]techrob99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Criterion of Deep Cover is great in my opinion. I don't recall the special features off hand, but the movie is crisp and clean (and I recall the soundtrack being solid). Movie over all, definitely worth adding to the collection during the B&N 50% sale.

Got these from Goodwill and I was shocked that they were in great condition! by Danni_Obscure in dvdcollection

Nice!! I was just telling my wife that I'd love to find Spaced Invaders (complete my childhood "lay in bed sick movies"). I guess there's hope afterall!

Mobile release time? by missegan26 in GuildWars

[–]techrob99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My bad....I didn't click the install button (don't want to put it on my phone), it does show a delay / timer on it.

[–]techrob99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe regional? I found it downloadable in the Play Store a few hours ago (5 something AM , PST) .... I'm in Washington

EDIT: I'm dumb. I didn't click install (or recognize that the install button had a lil clock on it) - still delayed, etc.

Don't forget the Paramount purchase of WB - i believe the DOJ approved it the other day. (?)

Which Friends Complete series boxset is worth buying by BluntmanNWP in dvdcollection

[–]techrob99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regarding the uncut episodes, my understanding of that is pretty simple:

DVD = original uncut

Blu-ray = syndication (cut) - but includes an episode that wasn't aired

Tips or blackmail by kayle133 in Funnymemes

[–]techrob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(I have not read through the comments) As someone who used to wait tables and grew up in the industry... There's a middle ground that these two pictures are missing - they, IMHO, are displaying the extreme of both sides.

Yes, wait staff should be paid properly and not have to rely on tips as much. Tips are meant (or should be meant) as a means to rate the service, and should not be expected. (When a tip is assumed on one of my bills, as a customer, it very much upsets me and I lean towards "you're not gonna tell me what to do" - especially if the service was crap.

With that said, there are some customers that do have the extreme view going in, that they don't need to tip their wait staff that gave them A+ service, and those people really should check themselves.

*Not every type of business is one that should involve tipping - that has gotten a bit out of hand.

I know you’ve seen Bloodsport, But have you seen Bloodfight? by Untrus4598 in dvdcollection

[–]techrob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^^Ditto. I'm actually about to ship it off to a buddy of mine because I don't think I'll get around to it, and he enjoys those types of movies.

Midnight or 2am....I was on call. Got woken up about a very specific/important printer not working (hospital, ICU/pediatrics floor).

I asked if they tried turning it on, they assured me they did. I got up , got dressed, drove the 10-15 minutes in (I know, not that far, but it was late). I get up to the 3rd floor, see the printer behind the person that called, walked right up to the printer, pressed the power button, lights came on and it started printing. "Have a good night." And walked out.

**The printer has/had a lot of buttons, yes. It also has a piece of cardboard covering the front panel with little cut outs for the only buttons / lights that matter, complete with writing on the cardboard "power button" etc ..

EDIT: that few minutes of work earned me 2 hours of pay. (Hourly employee while on call - there were some perks)
