Acute Dupitis (Sift Talk Post)

Handle With Care

AdrianBlack says...

Good points, I agree with you. I was on the fence about posting it because of your reasons. (I didn't even think of Mr. Incredible, but now it's very obvious.)
In the end, I also enjoyed it, and here it is.>> ^acidSpine:

Overall I liked this film. The first act was cool and unexpected, it really worked setting up the character and the situation then straight into the second no messing about. I thought it was a bad choice to fade out before he hit the asteroids, it was pretty weak. I thought you could have got way more out of that scene if you saw the ship fly through with the asteroids colliding behind it.
It also has to be said that character was such a rip-off of Mr Incredible (I'm pretty sure some of the performance and camera angles were nicked too but I'm too lazy to prove it). Still I liked it

Special Comment: What Are We Learning After Tuscon?

I'll tell you what we learned. We learned that crazy people do crazy shit sometimes. The end. Fade out. Roll credits.


Right, because it's definitely not an opportunity to stop and reflect on whether the kinds of crazy things we say are too much, because we know the only time we should ever dial it back a notch is when there's incontrovertible proof that rhetoric got someone killed.

Actually I never had tried Meth,

2 months ago I tried Ecstasy/mdma for the first time... Lets just say I liked that too much I am super glad it is not around me very much. Feeling down ? want to touch the moon and drink the sun? eat this pill and you will. but 3 hours later you will want to eat another one because the moon and sun fade out of reach....


my sister was like Rehab addicted to meth so no.. no meth for me. I do however drink WAY to much. Alcohol should be illegal and pot take its place.

Man Learns To Speak Norwegian In A Single Night!

TreacleMine says...

Hmm I'm with Raaagh and Gunter. When I watched the film I never got the impression that he learned it in one evening, but rather over a period of time (notice the fade-ins/fade-outs, changing weather).

Even just watching that clip by itself, I don't get the "learned in 40 seconds" vibe.

But you did start this off by saying you weren't into "hardwired buttons" because Windows isn't as solid as the OS on an ipod Touch.
I just don't think that makes any sense - what's the point of comparing them when they are so different?

The fact that phones use haptics suggests to me that the feedback from physical buttons is something that we all need and miss with touch devices. Personally I would like a real keyboard on my phone but getting that bigger screen seems like a fair trade-off. Maybe a slide-out keyboard is a future option for me.

>> ^jmd:

I wasn't refering to keyboards, neither the droids nore the iphones have a hardware keyboard. The majority of their interface use is not by typing either. I was concentrating more on the visual user interface..the windows themselves. The majority of Windows naggles are related to the operating systems upkeep of its internals and overhead, and how it handles application launches and such. The OS simply priorities the UI with the rest of the program, and that falls apart when under windows rules "It is acceptable to use most or even all cpu cycles for another program or windows upkeep process". Comparatively, the iphones/itouches put a bigger emphasis on making sure applications startup, run, and exit smoothly, and that video (interface visuals) does not lag or stutter while you are trying to use the touch screen to touch and move things.
Exiting 3d games has always been one of the most uggliest things in windows as a residual black window is left on the desktop for a second or more and the OS thrashes as swap memory of the windows that just became viewable is loaded into the freed memory. On the iphone on the other hand, while playing a 3d game, if I hit the home button the screen scales out and fades smoothly, and the audio slowly fades out. No pauses..no black screens..no sudden sound cut outs. It is extremely graceful. But that is enough of me rambling.

INT. OFFICE OF BIG MEDIA INC. CEO HUGH TWIT, ESQ.- DAY.

GOON, 30, barges into office. HUGH TWIT, 55, pushes aside his mountain of cocaine and turns to watch the goon.

GOON: "Sir! Sir! Terrible news! There are people watching our movies and not paying for it!"

TWIT: "This is an outrage! I want you to get some sticks and go beat up the people at our cinemas."

GOON: "Yes, sir!"

FADE OUT

FADE IN, INT. OFFICE OF HUGH TWIT, ESQ.- EVENING

GOON barges in. TWIT, wiping his nose, turns to look.

GOON: Sir! We beat up the paying customers at the cinemas, as per your orders. It's strange, sir, it didn't seem to work! People are still watching our movies without paying! And, it even seems some of the people who used to pay no longer want to! Something about not liking the stick-beatings. What do we do now, sir?

TWIT's nose begins to bleed.

TWIT: Goddamnit, what's wrong with these people? Listen, here's what I want you to do: Get bigger sticks. That should do the trick. And set up booths selling padding at the cinema front doors.

GOON: Sir, yes sir!

FADE OUT

C-Span caller rails against 'Black-span'

NetRunner says...

As much shit as Obama was given over his "cling to guns and religion" comment, when you read it in it's proper context, you realize he was absolutely 100% dead-on correct:

You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.

Hopefully we'll start getting a good economy again, and some of the heat will fade out of these guys.
