I love U 235

Bite my shiny metal ass!

That fourth quote is legit quality.

After having seen it, there are some scenes where it is difficult to follow the dialog which I'm sure is intentional. I haven't seen Tenet but I think Oppenheimer is not as bad in this regard, in part because there's less exposition -- this is all based on real events in the real world and there aren't a lot of mechanics to have to explain, and also because the story isn't as plot-driven as many of Nolan's thrillers. No MacGuffins, no car chases, shootouts or real twists; it's more about the man, his relationships and how his career plays out. That said, for example there is a scene where he's talking to his wife outdoors, it's windy and they're not facing camera and the fact that I couldn't follow what they were saying did take me out... instead of being engaged in the conversation I was more aware I was sitting there watching Chris Nolan dialogue, waiting for it to be over.

Ah, ok. So if lemmy.world dies, but !somecommunity@lemmy.world was federated to 2 different other instances, those instances wouldn't be able to "talk to each other"? They'd just have snapshots that they could locally interact with, but never see anything else? So is the fate of the Lemmyverse a graveyard of communities from dead instances?

meaning you could read my reply on a community that basically no longer exists

oh really? does it actually work this way? if lemmy.world dies, can all its communities continue to live on as long as there are lemmy instances out there federated and subscribed?

I wonder about this as well -- because communities are tied to a specific home instance, that instance going down affects that community, potentially killing it. Something more akin to hashtags/tags/labels wouldn't be tied to an instance so they would be more robust, though you'd lose the moderation of a community and just have a firehose of posts/comments...

It’s called a single-point of failure in Engineering.

For that instance, yes. For the whole of Lemmy, no. Everything else keeps on chugging along.

I thought intercutting the bombing of Hiroshima with THAT sex scene was done as tastefully as it could have been.
