#MovieThread V: Definitely Not The Final Frontier, Chapter Eleven — November Edition

From 2020 to 2023 I watched 1492 movies. This year so far, I've watched another 388, for a total of 1880 movies.

Numbers still check out.

This month:
* 1945 Best Picture nominees
* Actually starting Elaine May.
* Probably some Star Trek.

Everything I know about Transformers is either vague recollections of the Michael Bay series or better recollections of several rereads of Shortpacked!.

Hi everyone. Headache still killing me. Asked my brother not to visit today. I hope everyone has an awesome day.
in reply to Bruce Toews

Hey, I'm so sorry you had to cancel a visit with your brother. Praying you'll feel better.


OK, my one and only political post as it honestly doesn't engage me.

Am I alone in thinking it's really messed up to allow a convicted criminal to even run for presidency, let alone be able to take office.

What kind of message does that send out?

in reply to Darren Hartland

people voted Johnson in, after all.
There's probably some merit in the idea of the government we deserve.


Oh look, Substack where buttons don't work as intended--especially the cancel subscription button. I wonder why!


Well, expect more Randy Rainbow at least. There has to be one good take-away from this utter fucking shit-show mustn't there?
in reply to Andre Louis

The second Coming of Covfefe is dawning.
We brexited. They've done a double donald.
I wonder what the world'll look like in a few years.


Don’t expect Chrome to support keyboard-operable scrolling regions until (maybe) version 132 (anchor link):

Only 14 versions past its target release!

okay everyone, you can stop doomscrolling now. you got to the bottom and found the Doom


Just a reminder that #DoubleTap was pre-recorded this week to allow our travels so we will not be reacting in any way to the results of the US election so if you need a break from the world come join us in all the usual places.



what's your favorite programming language? why? please boost i need to distract myself lol




Remember y'all, the only thing you always have control over are your reactions, always. It's an autonomy nobody can take away when you think about it, you and you alone have control of how your feelings alter your own actions. (Unless of course you're hooked up to mind and body control systems, but let's not think about that.)
It's very disheartening to see so many already panic and talk of leaving a country when there's zero reason to worry until and if we reach any of those moments.

Many years ago, around 1990, I was in a bus with a friend, discussing UNIX process management. After a while I realized the other passengers were looking at us in a very worried way.

Don't talk about parents outliving their children, or killing their children, without saying you're talking about processes.

Now that it's no longer possible to rank in web searches, unless you're a content farm or a major publisher, it's a good time to ditch SEO, drop keywords, use descriptive headlines instead of catchy or clickbait ones, and write for humans. SEO won't help anyway, so let's help the readers who care.

Not USpol, but US related, a call to get your passports
Please get your passport if you at all can, it's self-Id for gender right now, and is valid overseas for many many things, including proof of gender, it's an incredibly important document and can help open your possibilities so much, even in the midst of all of this uncertainty

Gentle reminder that most disabled people can NOT leave the United States. Countries don’t want to take in disabled, chronically ill and “high cost health users”. There are serious financial barriers to moving - leaving most people behind.

Spare a thought for all of us tonight - people are scared. Then regroup and find a way forward … we are stronger together.



Guess all the “illegal alien” voting they were talking about went for him and it’s fine now, right?


I was joking that we should have build a wall and gotten the US to pay for it.
in reply to Hubert Figuière

turns we should even if they'd never pay for it.

(I'm talking about a wall to protect Canada)



Is there any cloud provider that doesn't rely on the US?
in reply to Hubert Figuière

There are no parts of the world that do not in some way rely on the US. 🙁

Not that the world would collapse if we were gone, but hooooo boy would you notice.

in reply to Hubert Figuière

Cloud rely on DNS. DNS rely on the US.

My alarm ringtone is "I got you babe". I started using it as a joke over groundhog day last year.

I think it's over.




Remember that DNA you gave to figure out your ancestry?

The fascists thank you for that.

in reply to Hubert Figuière

Trading away all our privacy, all the time, to big business? Not great either.
in reply to Halloween Rat Trick

@PatrickoftheG yeah. Between Google, Microsoft and AWS, most of the IT "infrastructure" has been given to a fascist country.



We are all getting the flu. Pipi feels legitimised. And the media will prop him up.
