It's one of those "the right story but told the wrong way" movies. We need a fan edit!

I still like the movie although it is definitely a movie I have to be in a mood for. However, after I watch the ending I realize I want the future people and technology to be a movie.

It wpuld be more interesting to reimagine the film as future archeologists discovering this story but maybe not getting it exactly right based only on artifacts. More like short stories being told through the film. It would have had the same message, characters and locations, but would have been more focused as the stories they showed would have had to be ultra relevant to the plot. Not sure if any of this makes sense.

I am glad the crew didn't just go on a zombie shooting spree, but all that did was make the Klingons do it instead. Wish we could have seen them save the zombies or at least tell us they'll work with the Klingons to do something about the planet or put a new warning message, etc. if they are made of moss why do they explode with blood when shot?

The flowers were cool.

I think what I'm missing was some depth, all this stuff happened but not really full explanations for things that aren't intended to be mysteries.

Let the doctor be a doctor without him having to also be a superhero imo

I'm not trying to pick the whole episode apart but it was also confusing we didn't know where they were in the building fully, it was hard to follow. They were in what felt like basement then suddenly on the roof of a tall building.

I'm disagreeing, it's one of the most complete shows out there was a complete wrap up and great finale. Lots of closure.

I'm rewatching it now and my only complaint is the character Jason, the "dumb" guy can be a lot of handle.

Holy fork, something that is great except one thing that particularly annoys me?....maybe I'm in the bad place.....

Edit. I did not down vote you even though I didn't agree.

The show was okay but that intro ... Felt like half the show run time was the introduction animation. I didn't know why it bugged me but the music was obnoxious and it just seemed to go on and on.

The show had good stuff but there were too many characters for a 20 minute show. Especially when their things are communal decisions and working as a team with no side characters. Why was the poly relationship even written, it had no part of the plot or character arc or story arcs. No purpose so it just took minutes away from the story.

One of us, one of us....

I kind of am, but radarr has an editions field which it uses for the file and that seems to be incomplete or inconsistent for my files. It wasn't a problem before but changing so many at once requires good data first.

Thanks for the tip. I've used Plex for so long with manual file name and folder changes so it covered up my issue and now I'm correcting it.

I still have to update the jellyfin title manually though. Jellyfins versions only work with multiple versions of the same file, not if you only have one version in the library that I want labeled as a special edition or something.

Congrats. I'm super particular about covers and naming and the conversion of file names that Plex needed to jellyfin is intensive.

I finally got got JF up and running but still working on adding edition names to each item that is special. I really wish there was an editions field so it wasn't a manual title update. At least I can lock the field afterwards.

The onn boxes run android so it's just installed as an app from play store. The users connect with their own tailscale account. My server is shared so they see it. Then they install jellyfin on the device, punch in the hostname of the server given by tailscale and the port and then it connects.

I could not get my reverse proxy to let them use my local domain.. I'm not smart enough and couldn't figure it out but they are only using jellyfin so typing one address was fine.

This is also what I do, however, each user creates their own tailnet, not an account on mine and I share the server to them.

This way I keep my 3 free users for me, and other people still get to see jellyfin.

Tailscale and jellyfin in docker, add server to tailnet and share it out to your users emails. They have to install tailscale client in a device, login, then connect to your jellyfin. My users use Walmart Onn $30 streaming boxes. They work great.

I struggled for a few weeks to get it all working, there's a million people saying "I use this" but never "this is how to do it". YouTube is useless because it's filled with "jellyfin vs Plex SHOWDOWN DEATH FIGHT DE GOOGLE UR TOILET".

Why a possum and not a raccoon? I like the meme but I think that's the wrong animal for it.

I have been off reddit since the api thing so I'm way out of touch with the current content and status.

It just seems odd all these posts about Reddit dying and it makes me think of the people that loved reddit aren't all here on Lemmy, so did they quit all of it or went somewhere else?

No one I know in person switched away, technical or not, they still use reddit. The whole situation is just not adding up.

So where is everyone going because it's not Lemmy. And Reddit still is huge. I don't understand the "it's so bad, everyone is getting banned" but also the site keeps growing.

I thought it was a good film as well. Not sure why it had all the bad press. There are many many terrible movies all the time and I believe it was unfair to this specific one which is telling an enormous story. If the second and third part form a cohesive story, I think this would be a good rainy Saturday film fest epic.

It's not perfect, I'm not here to defend it with specifics, but I did enjoy it.

Ford v Ferrari, and I really enjoyed it. It had the right amount of corporate backstabbing being out smarted by the main character. Not a feel good flick but it had a lot of good racing scenes and it was exciting.

Also watched the last 30 minutes of The Revenant which I had started but not finished.. that movie is brutal. And as my second watch-through, I'm still not entirely sure what the take away thoughts are. It's just survival and people are awful to each other. I'm not sure there's a lesson or reward at the end. Maybe I missed the whole point.

I love Truenas so much. I'm growing into its capabilities every day.

I bought an IT Mode flashed hba on eBay for like $40. Fanless, and easy. Make sure it comes with the cables or buy those separately but don't forget them.

"We innocent" was cropped out and I kinda liked how it originally said I'm innocent but they changed it to We Innocent.

"Grow the fediverse!"

But also "not you or that or this."

I dislike seeing the negative votes. Just let people do their their thing and either join it or don't.

This is not a rebuttal, I agree with everything you are saying, and i'd like to make a point.

Some would say these events are caused by their savior/Messiah. I think that adds to the hope that an alternative singular person would step up to "save" everyone.
