I never understood the boring argument, and I’ve read it quite a bit online. Every scene has a ton going on.

It starts with a banger wedding outside while the don hears about somebody’s daughter being savagely raped. Theres also a short conversation about Fontaine and the movie exec being a dick. Bam, hagen is in Hollywood. You wonder what the family has up their sleeve, bam horse decapitated head in the bed.

Business meeting about drugs, sonny goofs, wonder how that will go - assassination attempt. Hagen held captive. Luca sleeps with the fishes. Don in hospital, another assassination attempt thwarted, scene full of tension the entire time.

Michael decides he’s in the business now, they plan the attack, then bam middle of the movie you have an incredibly long tense scene of a drive and dinner that you know is going to end in violence.

I mean all of that is just in the first half of the movie. It’s buildup action buildup action repeat. This is not some slow character study alone… It’s a master class of character study with plot plot plot.

It’s almost ridiculous how much plot there is to be honest. After all of the above there’s Carlo abusing Connie and sonny beating the shit out of him. There’s Carlo doing it a second time as a trap and sonny getting fucking annihilated by gunfire. Michael escapes to Sicily, gets married, and his wife is murdered in a car bomb meant for him.

The cherry on top is Michael murdering the heads of the other families in one of the best climaxes of all time

Sorry for the rant. Everybody is entitled to their opinion. I just don’t understand the boring argument, this is not a slow movie lol

Matrix. Spin up a conduit server, doesn’t tale very long and it works great. Clients arent perfect but the next gen clients are available in beta (element x) and will fix a lot of the issues current gen clients have

While docker is open source I have no idea why systemd nspawn containers aren’t more popular. Most systems have this built in without needing to install 3rd party software. And I find using it so much easier. I assign each container an IP address and manage them all with ansible. It provides isolation and convenience while not trying to reinvent the wheel.

I’m having a hard time getting into software that doesn’t use traditional folder structures. I wish I could point immich to my NAS Pictures folder and have multiple places to seen the same exact files, immich when I want, nextcloud maybe, or just a file browser pointed to my NAS.

I’m having the same issue with paperless-ngx. I set it up and it’s cool, but why can’t I just point it to my Documents folder? I’m getting all of my 2023 taxes ready and now I have to upload them into two places, paperless-ngx for my records and Nextcloud so I can ultimately share a link with my accountant.

Am I old man yelling at cloud-ing right now? Why get rid of basic folder structures I just don’t get it

I didn’t get the one with Bluetooth or WiFi or whatever. Just turn it on and set temp. But yea it isn’t the cheapest.

I have the https://fellowproducts.com/products/stagg-ekg-electric-pour-over-kettle and love it, works great and it’s the best looking kettle I’ve seen.

Anybody used this yet? Will this be the btrfs killer I’ve been hearing it might be?

I recently rebuilt my home server using containers instead of (qemu/KVM) VMs and I notice a performance benefit in some areas. Although I just use systemd-nspawn containers rather than docker as I don’t really see the need to install 3rd party software for a feature already installed on my OS.

I handle snapshots by using btrfs. Works great

Bagent looks good!

Top of screen at eye level? I’m not sure this scales well with large monitors.

Not able to watch tonight but I see KC is only up 10-0 at half. Their offense has only really clicked when they played my Bears

Something about buying and using a Google device doesn’t sit right with me but you may be right, this may be the best solution.

Alacritty for me

Prolly not exactly what you’re looking for but an option nonetheless: make jam. The sugar helps preserve, plus put it in jars and put the jar in the fridge, lasts a long time

His stats pre vs post injury are crazy. Will always love you rizzo.

I’m not going to argue that xmpp shouldn’t be the defacto Foss social/chat network based on merit, it definitely has merit. But in reality, it had its shot and it did not take off. Now, in 2023, Matrix is our best shot at an open, Foss, decentralized chat protocol taking off.

Any arguments that xmpp evangelists will try to come back at this statement with do not matter. I’m sorry, it is just a fact, the clock isn’t turning back. Matrix may not be perfect for everybody, but it’s pretty damn great, and it has the momentum right now. Let’s please not screw this up with the typical fragmentation the open source community regularly has.

Birds nest is amazing, one of the best for traditional wings. My favorite wing spot in Chicago is Crisp, though those aren’t your traditional buffalo wings. Try it anyway.

Used infinity for reddit for years. Tried all the Lemmy apps and liked many of them, but this immediately felt like home again. Thanks for all of the work

Found this recently and loving it. Only issue I have is it loads every episode of a podcast when you click on the podcast, so if you have a pod with 1000 episodes, you’re gonna be waiting a few seconds when you click on it. Makes it feel sluggish.

Antenna pod and other apps load the pod instantly with a handful of episodes and then load more if you scroll. That makes way more sense.
