I was playing Spider-Man 2, where Kraven is a major character, when this movie came out and I wasn’t even aware of it. It is also now available on Netflix.

I don’t even know why we talk with other people in companies anymore. We can’t send emails because people don’t read them. So we are drowning in calls where we include the whole team where we talk about our weekends for 5 minutes at the start and spend half talking about what could have been a email. So on top we have bots that do these summaries so people can be sitting on calls only paying half attention to then not read the summaries anyway.

Portugal comes from “Portus Cale”. It was in the general area of the city of Porto. The word “Postus” and “Porto” mean port, as in a port for ships.

Yes, this is right. Saying arbitrarily “better” leaves a lot out.

I must admit that using the business integration for customer support has lead me to really good experiences. Especially not having to call, wait 20 minutes under a ring tone, and talking over a line with very low sound quality.

I wished Whatsapp wasn’t a thing so much. There are so many so much better apps. Signal is so much better and it would work fine for the vast majority of people.

Thanks

I remember the reaction at the time and so many people hated it. I didn’t dislike it, I was getting a bit into it.

Yeah, really baffling direction. I ended up trying a version on gnome 3 on a Debian distro when I had a new job. It ran very slowly. Super weird. It used to be super smooth.

Interesting. I think they might have been my problem, I was just trying to use it tradicionally. I wonder how it’s different nowadays.

This looks amazing and I need to have it in my life. Thank you so much for sharing

He really is more of an action movie character indeed. It works great in John Wick, and also did work well in The Matrix.

I also could never stand him. I think I just saw him in to many things basically being Jack Black or something.

There is actually one movie called The Holiday, it’s a RomCom from 2006 which I like very much, and I think he does a good job there.

Yeah, it’s been interesting seeing all the alternatives popping up. I think I’ve met a lot of people who really liked MATE.

I’ve mostly kept using XFCE. But before I had i3 only.

I don’t quite get why massive Gnome changes would imply a death of Desktop Linux. There are so many great alternatives to it. It’s been many years that Gnome has been considered bad by many, and that many have used alternatives. I just think it’s positive that Gnome continue to get worse, because like that more distros may default to better alternatives to begin with.

Any recommendations?

This is the most baffling feature ever. Why would anyone want to have titles translated? The video itself is not going to be translated! I guess it’s because of these auto subtitles that are simply not that reliable nor do they make for a good viwing experience if you really don’t know the language.

Even Youtube’s algorithm already doesn’t suggest videos from languages in which you don’t search in! My youtube shows me stuff only in the languages I usually google with.

And the ads with this ai voice… Damn they are weird.

OMG! This is exactly what I’m missing.

Thank you so much!

Oh yes definitely. We get way to much screen time. And I also feel the same when I sometimes don’t really want to think too much in the evening. I’ve come to not play certain games I deem a bit too much. Elden Ring comes to mind. I like souls like, and I did play Lies of P recently which I enjoyed. But Elden Ring looks way to long and might be a hard game.

I did not know this, and I love it! Thanks for sharing!!!

I watch youtube on a smart TV where I don’t have a way to skip ads. I know there are ways to do it, I just never implemented.

The experience with Youtube is getting so much worse. It used to be one ad at the start of the video. Then it was two. And now ads in the middle of the video. They are also so long! It completely breaks the narrative of the video and is so distracting.

All of this just makes me want to watch less Youtube, which is likely not a bad thing.
