    I've been sick this week and have watched a few

    today I watched The Boy and the Heron and really enjoyed it

    oh yeah, I'm 50+ without kids so I don't have any influence from little ones. But I do show them to my nieces and nephews, so they can be cool kids when they know about these things and their peers discover it

  • GOP representative blames swastika flag in his office on a ‘ruse’

    Jump

  • It wasn't me! It was the one armed liberal who snuck into my office in the middle of the night. How he lowered the rope and descended down from the skylight, I'll never know! But I'm keeping that and the other Nazi gear where it is .. it's evidence!

  • What was your craziest psychedelic experience?

    Jump

  • the first time I took LSD, I didn't really feel much but thought maybe my friends were pretty funny that night. So we decided to walk down the street to the convenience store and my buddy was like hey just take a 10 or 20 out, but don't look at it in front of the guy.... just give it to him and take the change . I'm like... ok, but why

    and then I looked at my bills and couldn't tell which was what and to make it even more interesting was the shit on the money was moving! It was like a fucking cartoon, like Fantasia come alive around me

    yeah that dude at the register had to know I was tripping balls

  • Should I get rid of my VHS collection

    Jump

  • yeah, I was mistaken about VHS reading tape data.

    thanks for the kind rebuke.

  • Should I get rid of my VHS collection

    Jump

  • the head of the vhs is using magnetic resonates to read the tape, that magnetic interaction is the same thing that tape has always used. it is the same

    edit: the real problem with VHS is the moving tape and how fragile the process is. the tape head can stick to the tape or the tape sticks to the wheels or the vhs cassette rollers sticking

    If Washington DC and Puerto Rico become states, how does Congress allocate them House seats?

    Jump

  • population determines House of Representative numbers and each state gets 2 Senators

  • Should I get rid of my VHS collection

    Jump

  • No. If they are meaningful to you, keep them. If you're worried about the data failure of them, just watch them once every 10 years and it should renew the magnetic stuff on them.

    I work in a place with a lot of old technology and the general consensus is that magnetic media needs to go through the motions every 10 years to stay healthy.

    but we have had success accessing 25+ year old media. so there's no scientific line about how long that stuff should survive.

    I do subscribe to the 10 year access rule because not all media was created equal.

  • Is Freddy Kruger merciful because he kills you in your sleep or because its a nightmare does that make it bad?

    Jump

  • when I was a boy... that scene when the guy is trying to run up the stairs and Freddy turns the stairs into muck and starts grabbing at him... that shit haunted me! I could not walk up stairs if the lights were turned off on the lower floor without freaking out

    I have had some some epic nightmares that woke me up screaming but once I wake up and think about them they are usually just stupid shit.

    Its the emotions that are overwhelmed and that is what they are eluding to with Freddy attacking you in your dreams. He makes the nightmare real to you and then tortures you and ultimately kills you... because he cant rape children anymore.

    fun fact, one of the worst nightmares I think I ever had went like this....

    a dream within a dream kinda thing... I woke up screaming that I saw a dead person in the mirror behind me and I screamed and woke myself up and went to the bathroom and when I looked in the mirror the dead guy was there again behind me.... I was screaming bloody murder at the top of my lungs and my wife woke me up and I was fucking whacked out... I wasn't sure I was awake or still dreaming... I went to the bathroom and washed my face and when I opened the door to leave, my wife was standing there. and it startled me and I just collapsed and cried for a few minutes. Once I told her what the dream was that had me screaming we both kinda laughed about it and went on with the day.

    The next day she woke me up and said I had to come and look at the TV... sadly it wasn't a nightmare but that day was 9/11/2001
