I’ve noticed routers in recent years have default passwords like “wristrhino040” printed on the sticker on the bottom. I suspect we’ll see more of that.

And you might still miss some things the first time but it makes rewatches even better. I rarely feel the desire to rewatch shows, even good ones, Deadwood is the exception.

Hell even the set is amazing because the background extras took their roles so seriously, listening to the commentary tracks the lead actors noted that the background extras/actors developed their own routines and really made the camp come to life.

It had more of a living history museum or renaissance fair vibe than that of a stale set. Everyone invovled with the project had passion for their role no matter how small.

Right, I think he had a lot more in the tank that we never got to see.

For years I was upset that Deadwood never had a fourth season. When I learned more about Milch and listened to his recent memoir that came out in 2022 I was just glad those first 3 seasons made it to air.

Many people don’t survive all the drugs, family problems and a gambling addiction that he had going for him.

It would be cool to see the alternative universe where the other frat member becomes president or the one where Deadwood doesn’t get cancelled but this one could be a lot worse really.

BSG is a very different show but there might be some crossover between the fanbases. Deadwood is legacy HBO, the quality and depth of cast is on another level compared to what the scifi channel had at the time.

It’s also endlessly quotable, that’s one thing I miss about reddit is the small /r/Deadwood sub. You’ll see some general “cocksucka” quotes in the wild but that sub has multiple rewatches under their belt and uses the full range. I have to revist some posts there everytime I rewatch it.

Anyway, here’s one of my favorites from Wild Bill in S01E04: https://webm.red/view/cn5t.webm

Both shows are at the top but Deadwood’s dialogue has a deliberate rhythm to it that is unmatched. If you get on it’s wave length you’re in for a treat. I watch it at least once a year and never grow tired of it.

David Milch the creator details his thought process on the rhythm of the dialogue and the push back he got with use of obscenity here: https://youtu.be/F2qk7W8_KLE?si=LxeRNs2N_-kzKiGb&t=1196 (20:01) Once he’s done answering that question (around 29:00) i’d stop watching if you haven’t seen Deadwood as there are spoilers later in the talk.

Thank your ancestors for that. Couldn’t think up any new names on their way over so they resused a bunch.

All top 12 hour. Subscriptions? Never heard of her.

Having to find an ATM to be able to complete a transaction

Much like cash an ATM isn’t needed by a lot of people as they bank online and use cards. Crypto has all those options as well.

Point is here you either adapt or have to find a new job because old payment processors won’t let you sell your Giraffe bukkake art. It is what it is.

I didn’t “sell it for cash” I paid my VPS hosting bills with it. It’s simple for business to accept crypto these days, couple clicks and they’re set up.

If your business is making NSFW art than you better be willing to adapt.

What potato stays hot for 15 years?

Is it? The ATMs have been all over the place for half a decade at this point.

As for fees it cost me 3 cents to send a $50 Litecoin transaction a few days ago. If I did that with Bitcoin it would have cost me $8 in transaction fees so you’re right there.

Now days there’s a coin for every purpose.

• Bitcoin = gold bars

• Litecoin = mundane transactions

• Monero = digital cash

Crypto has been around for 15 years already. Time flys.

It’s an impressive FOSS project, scracthes the fast paced Quake itch but not a lot of people have that these days.

I use to play it’s predecessor Nexuiz for years, you might recognize a few maps as some were updated for Xonotic.

Shout out to the crew who played on the HOCTF server. Had well over a 1000 hours on there.

Like, why dont people who can just move?

Kind of a catch-22.

America is the best country in the world, if you’re rich. Once someones earning a lot and saved up move to New Zealand money the appeal isn’t as strong for most.

immediately go for northern europe

Oof. That’s akin to moving there in 1938. Bit of a risky proposition to say the least.

I wouldn’t move there now if allowed and I don’t even have illegally move to Mexico money.

The price is ridiculous for what they get. And it’s in Texas of all places.

You could find a nice older house in the midwest with land for under 100k.

Yeah you hear about bookies going out of business from bad lines all the time. /s

The house always wins. Haley is 20 to 1 just to win the nomination.

And polls are off but rarely outside the margin of error.

Trump is beating Biden in the polls and bookies have him as the favroite to win.

Unless some states that matter kick him off the ballot the US is headed for 2nd Trump presidency.

I’m just impressed you’ve maintained this quaint notion of how the world works at your age. You seem to have an honest belief in international law and humanity.

I have a belief system based in reality. One where winners dictate terms. No one from a nation with nukes will face the same fate as someone from an African or Balkan country.

I even drink beer and smoke shisha with one, even though it’s haram.

Funny how much better life starts to get the further one strays from religion. It’s almost like it’s holding us all back or something /s

Now, I could be wrong but you strike me as the sort who doesn’t put much weight behind international law.

I’m old enough to remember what happended in Rwanda. International laws may as well be printed on the back of a CVS receipt. It’s equally worthless.

Pretending “international law” or anything the UN says is worth mentioning is laughable at this point.

And I do agree the slow West Bank takeover over by Israel settlers is wrong. It needs to stop. However claims about Israel being on colonized land is bullshit rhetoric that doesn’t deserve respect.

your country’s history.

My point is it’s every countries history. No one exists on land orignally belonging to their tribe. Most land has been ‘stolen’ many times over.

At the end of the day my positions are this. Israel has a right to exist. Palestine never existed. Arabs lost every war ever fought. Losers don’t get to dictate terms.

Arabs refused every deal presented no matter how favorable throughout the decades. They want it all. They want to be free from the river to the sea AKA they want every Jew dead. They are always the one to initate attacks.

After Oct 7th Israel had the right to declare war and do the needful so to speak. Hamas will be eradicated. Gaza will suffer much more than they are now and theres not a hashtag in the world that will change whats coming. No international law will be enforced, no UN intervention.

Religion is a cancer on the world and the middle east is exhibit A as to why it belongs in the past. Forced to choose I’ll back Judism over Islam every time. Islam kills non believers like me and spawns death cults across the globe. It’s an abhorrent and barbaric religion that is incompatible with the modern world.

How many have they displaced?

Most respected the warning and moved to safer areas hence the lower civilian death toll. Would you rather they stay and die? Displacement isn’t always a bad thing.

How many hospitals have they destroyed?

You mean Hamas bases? As many as they need to.

Also, the fact that they’ve done 22,000 strikes sure doesn’t sound like a proportionate response.

The goal is to eliminate Hamas. Proportinality isn’t a thing here. This will take months and Israel will sweep up and down the entire Gaza strip as needed.

Having nukes that your enemies know you can’t use isn’t much of a deterrent.

I wouldn’t be so sure. Israel doesn’t acknowledge their nukes and plays by it’s own rules. A first strike option is on the table.

They’ve shown the world exactly how much Israel cares about Palestinians. The BDS movement will just get stronger and stronger the longer this goes on, to say nothing of the ‘less civil’ anti-Israel sentiment.

You sure about that? People are tiring of the protests now and turning on the protestors blocking traffic and invading areas of normal life.

colonies

Oh come the fuck on. Colony my ass, the Jews have been there for thousands of years. They have more claim to the area than you or I do from wherever we’re posting from. We are all colonizers compared to Israel.

My roots only go back on 150 years and I’m in fucking Wisconsin. If the Objibwa tribe mounted an attack on my people now they’d be eradicated and no one would balk. The moment passed for atacks, we are here now and not going anywhere.

It’s time Palestine accept that as well because if they can’t they’ll be living in refugee camps permanently.

Is the genocide in the room with you right now?

Come up with whatever hashtag you want nothings going to change.
