Dean Cain can lick a sweaty nutsack. An embarrassment in the history of Superman casting.
Him and Kevin Sorbo can lick boots together while they swap stories about how they used to play strong guys on TV but now spend their time being weak-willed sheep IRL.

Am I the only one that thought Boyhood was overrated? Like the meta of the movie is unique and impressive, for sure. It’s an incredible idea to film a movie following the development of a kid into adulthood in real time, and the perseverance to make it is laudable. But… I found the movie that resulted felt like… well like someone who had an idea for a movie 11 years ago and kept changing the plan along the way without being able to change what’s already filmed. It felt messy and disjointed. Not like it is terrible, but I have no interest in watching it ever again. Certainly not in my to 30 movies of all time.
They did the math!
Man I would be so rich if I just didn’t have a moral compass
Save the bees!
Well, first I gotta ask, is any of this really necessary or worth it? You want to resolve some limitations with the standard MIDI format, but are those limitations worth this much trouble to fix? “Buy dont build” is an important principle for any developer to take to heart because we all want to just do it ourselves, dive into the challenge, fix the little gripes, etc. But sometimes good is good enough and there’s no reason to retread the same ground someone else has. If you absolutely need something standard MIDI format can’t give you or available editors dont meet your needs, then sure, build away. But otherwise, save yourself the trouble, put your focus on the more important aspect of your project and just use the standard format.
And dont fall for the sunk cost fallacy. You have already invested time into this, and that time is gone. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that you should sink in more time if the outcome is not going to justify the additional time cost. It is okay to just shelf it for now. You can always come back to it if you need to later as well.
“You can fucking try…” 🙃
Thanks for the recommendations
What do you mean? They just ask Jesus for forgiveness at the 11th hour and bing bang boom, eternity in heaven. The 'ol Christianity grift. Didn’t you know that’s how morality and cosmic justice works?
Its the min value of the input params, or Infinity.
And the reason it’s Infinity If there is no input, for better or worse, under the hood the method is assigning a variable, min, the highest value possible and then comparing it to each element in the list, reassigning it when it encounters an element lower than its value at the time. So it will obviously always be reassigned if there are any elements at all (if they’re less than Infinity, I guess). But if there are no elements, it’s never reassigned, and thus returns Infinity. It could have just signed min to the first element instead if Infinity, but that would lead to a runtime error when min was run without a function. If you’re not going to throw a runtime error though, it makes sense for min to return Infinity because, what other number could you return that couldn’t actually be the minimum
Narrator: “It wasn’t B.”
I had a manager once tell me during a casual conversation with complete sincerity that one day with advancements in compression algorithms we could get any file down to a single bit. I really didn’t know what to say to that level of absurdity. I just nodded.
The whole “don’t end sentences with a preposition” rule is not a real rule in English at all. Some pompous asshats like John Dryden claimed it should be a rule in the 17th century because that’s a rule in Latin, and then everyone just repeated the “rule” forever. But notice how English is not Latin and has entirely different grammatical rules? Weird huh? And notice how a phrase like, “That’s a policy I can agree with,” sounds way more natural and easily understood than, “That’s a policy with which I can agree.” Both are technically correct, but the former is generally preferred and much more common phrasing among native speakers despite the supposed rule against it. It’s up there with “i before e except after c”, “never use double negatives”, and “don’t split infinitives” for English rules that everyone has been told that aren’t actually rules at all and that we all break on the reg.
And the ReDead face huggers approaching as you are literally frozen in fear.
It’s been my favorite story driven game franchise for many years
And I hope you enjoy Part 2. I loved it almost as much as the original, but it does NOT pull any punches narratively speaking so just be prepared to be challenged. It was controversial when it came out for several reasons (some valid, some not)
No. Didn’t see that they were specifically advertising that as a feature. Well ok then. I gave them the benefit of the doubt, but they are clearly morons. Still not sure why it is covered in plastic wrap.
This is clearly a house still under construction/refurbishment. The floors look newly installed, there is loose wiring hanging from the ceiling for a new fan/lighting fixture, the frame on the biggest window isn’t painted yet, I think I still see scratch protection film on the sliding glass doors, and the tub is still covered in plastic. I highly doubt the intention is to leave it and install it there. Almost certainly, it is just sitting out of the way while they installed new flooring before they bring it in the to the bathroom for install. Someone else in the comments posted another photo where you can see it is sitting on cardboard too.
Edit: I actually opened the listing and saw the description and more photos. I stand corrected. Bafflingly, this was the final spot for that tub, it was intentional and they are advertising it like a cool feature. Smh. Still don’t know why it is covered in plastic wrap.
The quintessential symbol of heroism, of ‘The American Way’, Superman, was created during the rise of fascism and nazism by two Midwestern Jewish boys, one of whom had immigrated from Canada and whose parents were immigrants from Russia and The Netherlands. In the story introducing their character to the world, he saves a wrongly convicted woman from execution, stops a wife beater from killing his wife, and stops a slimy lobbyist and corrupt senator from roping the US into a war with Europe. i.e. it acknowledges that the justice system gets it wrong, that women can be abused and endangered by their husbands, and that congress has a huge corruption and bribery problem. Sounds pretty fucking woke to me. And a few years later had him literally punch Hitler. The idea that they didnt have anything to say with the character about prejudice, about immigrants adopting their new home and being adopted in turn, about politics, is fucking laughable… “too woke”. No, Dean, you’re too ignorant to think that he ever wasn’t “woke”.
