See, I actually think the F&F franchise is the exception here. The first one is just about some folks who like cars stealing DVD players. If it had just been that movie, I think it would have been mostly forgotten. It’s not bad, but it’s not iconic on its own. With each subsequent one they continue to lean harder and harder in to ridiculousness to the point where suddenly we have Tyrese and Ludacris in SPACE. To me the franchise is an example of how to do the action movie right: with a huge amount of self awareness and never taking it too seriously. They know what kind of movies they’re making.

In addition to what the other reply linked about cleaning the cartridges, it could be your SNES has some bad capacitors. Not all games use all parts of the motherboard, and from what I understand SNES consoles were somewhat plagued with bad caps like many electronics from the era. If you can solder it should be quite easy to just replace em all in one go; there are even kits you can buy that include all the correct ones.

Ohhhh for some reason my mind went to him trying to tutor other dudes to help them with women. Was very confused.

Actually in ID4 there was an explanation. Basically all of humanity’s computer tech came from reverse engineering alien tech. So our computers worked with theirs because they were based on theirs. Maybe this isn’t this best logic, but they did at least have an in universe explanation.

Well Electric Lady is the name of the studio that live album was recorded at, which is a studio in NYC that Jimi commissioned, so those two at least are related.

If you haven’t listened to her live at Electric Lady album i highly recommend. The band she has is absolutely killer.

Even worse than that imo is ‘quarter of’. I swear to god it’s been used to mean both before or after whatever hour they’re talking about

For me its mostly the legs/heads. I dont fuck with heads on anything and legs need to be way bigger for me to be interested. I’d try one of those fly/mosquito burgers tho.

Love that it’s very clearly an iMac g3 too

Sounds like you have a highly subsidized mortgage. That’s why you’re being downvoted. Investments are supposed to have risk. The risk of not making a profit is what you take on when you purchase real estate as an investment. It is not a renters problem whether you are profitable or not.

The only benefit I get by continuing to own the property is the appreciation in equity and principle payments to the mortgage.

Sounds like you’re still getting a sweet deal then. Once the mortgage is paid off you will own property outright that you paid very little for compared to it’s value.

Private companies are allowed to have many failures before they succeed, unlike NASA who lose public goodwill and therefore potentially lose funding when they fail. SpaceX blew up a ton of rockets before they succeeded in having the first reusable rocket. It’s much faster to iterate this way but also more expensive, so NASA cant really operate this way. Although on the other hand all the private aerospace companies seem to rely on government subsidies so it’s pretty crappy we cant just fund NASA more.

I feel like just more app icons in general are blue than any other color. Off the top of my head in addition to what you mentioned I have shazam, venmo, signal, steam, blink, reolink, dropbox, steam, paypal, discord, max, disney plus. And that’s not even counting one’s that are majority white but with blue as the only color. I think it’s just the most popular design choice or maybe there’s some sinister market research somewhere that shows people use/spend more on apps that have blue icons.

There is literally no way to be upfront about communicating ‘I have no interest in what you are saying and wish you would stop talking’ without coming off like an asshole and/or hurting their feelings most of the time.

I disagree; to me it sounds like they’re talking about crimes of passion like gunning down a spouse etc. These are the majority of gun homicides but you don’t hear about them much because one or two people killed isn’t ‘newsworthy’ on it’s own anymore. True mass shootings are infrequent comparatively but because of that and by their nature they’re what we hear about. True we shouldn’t be regulating based on relatively infrequent tragedies but they can draw attention to firearm homicides as a whole which are a serious issue and not always related to mental health issues in the same way.

Mass shootings account for only 0.1% of firearm homicides.
