Army of Darkness memes now?

Huh, one is holding the other in their arms. With the hubbub, I thought they'd be 69ing or something. People really have to make a big deal out of everything...

Not to be depressing.. When i was 5 I sometimes slept in bed next to my mom. Woke up one of those days and she was already in rigor mortis. I touched her and she felt like an uncooked turkey, if that makes any sense. Took me a couple decades before I could actually handle an uncooked turkey or like, be around someone wearing her favorite perfume without almost fainting. Nobody knew exactly what killed her, maybe just sudden death syndrome.

If animals count, when i was about 6 my sister had a horse that slipped on the cement and when it managed to pull itself back up.. I don't think it's totally accurate, but my memory is that its whole body was raining blood a few feet in front of me. Like I remember my vision being framed by blood dripping like a rainstorm from a cloud. Needless to say, it didn't survive. I remember my dad using the hose to spray all the blood off the cement. I saw lots of dead pets over the years... Between all the wild animals and the back road that everyone sped on, most pets had short lifespans.

Anyway, I grew up through a lot of other fucked up stuff... And people wonder why I'm weird. And if you don't want morbid answers, don't ask morbid questions.

Switch pro worked without any tweaks as well.

I generally do this on my NAS, combined with nightly and bi-weekly backups, plus a 6-mo safety backup, to a backup drive. Also, basic off-site nightly backups for important stuff. If I worked on really important stuff that required lots of versioning, though, I'd probably go with a versioning system instead of inserting the date.

I find it funny, actually. For years, I used DOS, exclusively command line-based, on a 286 and when I got a new 486 computer in the early 90s I was so excited to get Windows 3.1 on it. Decades later, I find myself hating Windows and going back to Linux and often a command line. As far as I'm concerned, the closest thing to the last usable version of Windows was 7, and it still kinda sucked.

I say this a lot, but "nomacs" image viewer/editor. I take a lot of time lapse videos and I have directories of like, 50000 identically-sized images each on a smb server over gigabit ethernet and nomacs can open from a directory and quickly cycle through the photos using the arrow keys, without resetting the current pan/zoom setting (important for me), without any trouble. It takes about as long to open the directory of photos as it takes for my samba client to download the directory data.

It also has a lot of cool little quality of life features, including lots of shortcut keys for overlaying metadata and such. It has basic image editing capability as well. The only other image viewer I use is digikam, which is more for organizing personal photos. Otherwise it's all nomacs, baby.

My favorite general image viewer is nomacs.

I don't go to theaters enough to see entire audiences laughing, but I laughed..

I laughed uncontrollably at the climax/ending of Dark City at a friend's birthday party. It was his favorite movie at the time. He wasn't amused. I think the fact that he took the movie SO seriously, and that it ended in such an embarrassing schlocky way, was just too much for my poor system.

Also laughed my way through most of the first Fast and the Furious movie, in the theater. At the time, it seemed like an amazing absurdist comedy, but these days it'd be very tamely dumb. Lots of people probably think of it as some sort of classic or some shit now.

Finally, nobody in the theater laughed once at Down Periscope. IMDB has it at 6.2, but.. nobody laughed. We walked out after giving up 30min in. edit: it was a different spoof movie from almost the same time that I'm thinking of, McHales Navy. Sorry for slandering you, Down Periscope, I'm sure you're amazing.

It's bad, but is it as bad as in movies/tv where people look into a microscope and see little viruses multiplying, or even worse, DNA double-helices floating around? Maybe it is...

Oof that was a hard one to watch sometimes

Quite a few.. First that comes to mind is Skinshape - I didn't know. Also Tame Impala has a few, like Feels like we only go backwards

Not sure how far back we can go..
