You've got be joking right? The most influential, most loved, most well regarded fantasy trilogy of all time is not a good story actually? I get that it wasn't your style for whatever reason but to call it bad storytelling is just asinine.

Workaround Steps:

  1. Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment

  2. Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory

  3. Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.

  4. Boot the host normally.

There is a fix people have found which requires manual booting into safe mode and removal of a file causing the BSODs. No clue if/how they are going to implement a fix remotely when the affected machines can't even boot.

Yep, stuck at the airport currently. All flights grounded. All major grocery store chains and banks also impacted. Bad day to be a crowdstrike employee!

Haha, I have no idea why it is so unheard of. Absolutely floored me the first time I saw it years ago and I've come back to it at various times in my life and gotten different things out of it each time. Such a gem of a film.

Haven't seen The Best of Youth but I'll put it on my list right next to Satantango 😉.

Hell yeah! Ritual by him is also wonderful.

Shoutout for mentioning Brick. Modern noir masterpiece I never see mentioned online. Great, eclectic list overall!

TLJ is in my top 3 stories in all of gaming but the puzzles/gameplay are pretty terrible. I'd still highly recommend grabbing it for a few bucks on GOG and playing it with a walkthrough - the story is absolutely worth it.

I liked dreamfall as well but the story wasn't as impactful to me. I actually backed chapters on kickstarter but never finished it. How are you enjoying it so far?

Very US centric take. I'd be curious to see how Dubai or Singapore stack up in terms of energy consumption per capita compared to large cold-climate cities. Everything is air conditioned and there is so much enclosed space because being outside sucks so bad.

This one is good but Hungry Cat Nonograms is the best mobile picross game imo. Thousands of puzzles, amazing controls, beautiful art. It has ads which can be removed with a single in-app purchase. Been playing for almost 8 years and they're still releasing weekly content.
