He's already said he's retiring about three times. Then finds something he likes the look of and he's back. I mean, if he says it after every film, he might eventually be right!

Is 16GB RAM "plenty?" I'm not so sure. It depends on what kind of development you're doing, what you're running locally, etc. My work laptop has 16 gigs hard capped, and I always wish I had more headroom. Obviously, budget matters, so that's a call for you to make, but 16 gigs is probably the smallest amount to call "enough" these days.

(Of course, it's also extremely easy to expand if you find you need more, so...)

I had no idea about that at all - very clever!

There really was so much expression in silent movies. This is awesome.

Oh, it's not even not-a-joke in the way I thought. 🤣 Don't mind me, I'll just turn and face the wall for a bit...

Edit: OK, that's a great gif!

I initially thought this was a gag on how people having their photo taken back the had to sit still for a long time...

But no, just jpg...

I love this film, have watched it numerous times.

The song For A Friend by The Communards that plays over the closing credits was written for Mark Ashton (played in the film by Ben Schnetzer), and it's a sad, poignant and beautiful song.

In Europe, there is no good reason to own this. It doesn't fit anywhere. There are other, better options in every single circumstance. Including pickup trucks that are designed for and fit our roads. These trucks are simply too big, they're a menace.

In the 30+ year old words of Bill Hicks:

They believe the bible is the exact word of God - Then they change the bible! Pretty presumptuous, huh? "I think what God meant to say..."

It's a really fun audiobook, if that's your thing!

Hopefully I've sorted it now!

I started the Irish flag that ended up running to intersect the Enterprise. I would never have had it erase the 1701, and tried to move the flag up!

Still, I did learn about this place on the back of it.... Happy to be aboard!
