Looks like we'll get to see more of Action Saru next week 😁
I have not been able to log in at all, even after trying multiple browsers, until today! Glad to be back
A lot of things went right this year. Almost none of them made the news.
Was there any more clarification on whether this instance would "defederate" from Meta? I remember reading about it ~5 months ago and posting a general query. IIRC the response was "we'll cross that bridge if/when we get to it".
I only have very basic knowldge of how the fediverse works, but does this mean Meta (Threads) is connected on lemmy ?
NASA’s iconic space probe is having trouble communicating with its home planet due to a computer glitch, forcing engineers to resort to decades-old manuals to come up with a way to fix the 46-year-old mission. Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 is now more than 24 billion kilometres away from Earth. T...
This sucks, my 10 yr old dog is 2/3 of the way through a 9kg bag 😵💫 Update: I was able to swap it for a new 9kg bag. Our original bag wasn't affected by mould luckily
Enshittification strikes again
"But the system is broken. Audiences are dumber. Normal people don’t go through reviews like they used to. Rotten Tomatoes is something the studios can game. So they do.”
Jake Sully has no personality other than being mystified by the world.
Agree, and his purpose is to introduce us to the alien world. Him becoming a leader is one aspect that didnt sit right with me. He didn't earn enough goodwill to do that. Its just trust the superior humanoid, because he did something my great grandfather did.
Your friends not wrong. The link with european arrival in north and south america was intentional for the film.
This week i've decided to rewatch the avatar films on blu ray. I picked up the special editions with the 3 hours worth of extras for each film. I've rewatched the first film and some extras. I'm a casual fan at best and by no means a movie critic, but here arey impressions.
The first avatar film has aged well. I enjoy the world of pandora and it is beautiful on blu ray. The details in the plants are incredible. A botanist that consulted on the film is featured in the bonus content.
I still get the sense that this could of been a two part film, with the first part ending with the destruction of the home tree. Then there would of been space go explore the na'vi tribes before the battle.
I watched the family audio version with english subtitles. The audio creatively removed the swears, but the subtitles didn't.
The bonus features had the main actors reflecting on their experiences making the film and their reflections on its success. They all played their characters brilliantly, and I was surprisingly impressed by Stephen Langs take on playing Quaritch.
Edit: Also after someone pointing this out, I can see the similatities with Fern Gully (which happens to be the first film I watched in theatre.)
I'm looking forward to rewatching way of the water, as I streamed it for the first watch.

Fun! Though i like that this community is different to reddit.
Yes I've read that snowpiercer s4 is completed but there's no word on which network will air it 😮💨
Enjoy DS9!
I might dive in and watch sub Rosa as well 🙂
I started with DISCO, then PIC, then SNW. I don't think there's any particular reason I haven't watched TAS, Lower Decks or Prodigy🤔
I havent watched much TNG only " the best of both worlds" and "chain of command" as they were in the picard tv & movie collection. If you have any episodes of TNG to recommend please let me know
Being somewhat new to trek, I bought the Picard movie & tv collection box set prior to season 1 airing and thoroughly enjoyed it. Might be a good time to revisit these + picard series😊
Interesting, I havent watched any of the animated star treks. Enjoy beevis ans butthead.😆
I remember DS9 reruns on commercial tv yonks ago, might be time to give the series a spin
So whats everyone watching on Thursday (nights) now that SNW has wrapped up? I'm looking for recommendations
Edit: I'm currently watching outlander, waiting for the wheel of time s2, DISCO and snowpiercer s4
Housework has been a longtime struggle for me. Its one of those things that makes overwhelm seem more overwhelming. I have been using a cleaning podcast ~11months. Just throwing it on in and doing what I can when i have the energy to has transformed my confidence in the ability to deal with my space. Even if its just to get started on the essentials. I hope this helps someone
I am experiencing a trigger. The difference is, I have more awareness now. Before my diagnosis, I didn't understand why I reacted to things the way that I do. I can remind myself to be gentle, slow down and take it easy. Breathe. It WILL pass.
Disney Is Apparently Ceasing All Physical Media In Australia

Such a blow for a BI4Ler. When budget allows I always pick up physical media of my favourite movies and shows.
Uggh. As somene who collects physical media this is devastating. Hoping other studios don't follow suit.
