I like to listen to the Muckrake podcast for analysis of recent events.

Even effects-forward pieces like Jurassic Park still hold up because everyone on the island is a memorable character and the plot is exciting! Though it's true that the constraints on effects might have caused that - the dinosaurs in that movie only had about 15 minutes of total screen-time, so they had to actually, y'know, write.

This post has a very pleasant and prosocial energy. Thanks for your enthusiasm! I agree, the topiary is great!

Reminder that even though All Cops Are Bastards, the chief executive oversees the executive branch and so every president is a cop regardless.

I have a VPN, so this could definitely work.

 

Do any of you have a plan in place for how to tune into the 2024 Paris Olympics? I've got a good Jellyfin ecosystem set up to watch my video files and listen to my music, but I haven't explored many ways to watch live sports content yet. What is the best way to tune in to the events at the Paris Olympics this summer? They're split across several TV channels. Smooth UX would be my priority - I'm willing to spend a little money if need be. So I was considering going for a Youtube TV free trial during the event, but is there a better method?

Given the history of the series, I find this to be pretty endearing. I have fond memories of playing the multi-disc Baldurs Gate 1 on PC as a child. It's kinda fun to see that today's gamers will have a similar experience with the same series nearly 30 years later.

The neutral redrawing of districts in my home state of Michigan has made a transformational difference for both local and national politics. I really hope Wisconsin can do the same.
