I'm very concerned Chael picked Volk to win after betting on him.

Taking an ice cold shower is an insane mood hack. I was feeling tired and generally low energy and now I feel like I could run through a wall.

I saw it in theaters and I thought it was pretty good, think I would've enjoyed it more if the mix wasn't awful and I actually could've heard the dialogue

I thought it was alright. I think you have to be into that type of stuff. Studying history and politics to really enjoy it. The scene him smoking  a cigarette naked in the chair was stupid

Big movie buff here. I was born in the early 90s and have been on an 80s/90s kick lately. Specifically, I've been on sort of a cult classic kick and recently watched Flash Gordon and Waterworld. I noticed a random nugget in each film that as I've pondered on them, I've realized might be some of the more bizarre symbolism I've noticed in film. 

In Waterworld, the alternate lingua franca that seafarers speak besides English is called "PortuGreek". That seems like a bizarre attempt by the writers to mesh 2 skilled seafaring cultures from antiquity together. For anyone unfamiliar with the plot of this movie, it's technically set in a hypothetical future where the polar ice caps have already melted. 

In Flash Gordon, the antagonist is named "Emperor Ming", which seems like a pretty obvious reference to Chinese culture. However, the sigil of Emperor Ming in the film is strangely similar to the symbol of the Jesuits. Additionally, Mings henchmen in the film use a symbol that looks nearly identical to the compass used in freemasonry. 

And for anyone that's curious, Waterworld is as terrible as everyone has always claimed it to be. For me, it's one of those movies that's so bad it's good, if that makes sense. Flash Gordon I had actually never seen but is without question the most 80s movie ever made.

I get that it might not be for everyone but Oppenheimer is in my top 10 movies of all time, ****s amazing. Then again I'm someone who knows quite a lot around the subject and particularly Oppenheimer's life prior to watching it so i suppose there's something of a barrier of entry when watching it. 

Still ADHD tiktok brains bruh lmao XD

You gotta see Spacehunter adventures  in the forbidden zone and Krull 80s The Guyver 90s very bad scifi but good fun.
Crazy how well cast these stinkers are and fun to see how little science or reasoning is involved.
Still better than most modern Scidramas for me.

I think you know that your film palate has expanded once you can acknowledge that a film is boring and also love it. I like kiarostami's quote regarding this:
"I prefer the films that put their audience to sleep in the theater … Some films have made me doze off in the theater, but the same films have made me stay up at night, wake up thinking about them in the morning, and keep on thinking about them for weeks. Those are the kind of films I like."
but if a film is boring and you also don't care for the visuals, score, etc. then yeah no real reason to stick with it

Have a small project I have this spring.

Currently have a modem/router combo.

I have to run a cat5 cable outdoors and connect a different router to another part of the building.  Roughly less than 100feet.

This is the cable I plan on buying.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01CI9MEYU/ref=ox_sc_act_image_2?smid=A3TCXIBA125BM2&psc=1

Also the router/modem is almost 10 years old and I have connectivity issues every now and then. So I want to buy another modem/router combo and a router that will be connected from the cat5 cable.

Does anyone have any recommendations on those equipment. I am not concerned too much about price. Really want something nice. Also, any concerns about that cat5 cable?

Greg I know this is up your alley of knowledge

I have an Asus RT-AC68U router. It's a couple of years old at this point but it's a good one imo. Made in Taiwan though if you care about that stuff, you have to choose between China Taiwan and the US for manufacturer location for the most part with routers. The two big countries on that list have been known to put backdoors on some routers which could make them more vulnerable to hacks. You'd have to do a lot of digging and some speculation to find out which models are affected though. Again if you care about that stuff.
