They also rather sparingly used the Ken Burns effect on a shot of a car with thugs all shot up towards the finale of Unleashed. 😛

Chrome tabs have memory usage now, there’s an explanation here. Get a feeling we’re moving towards the milestone of a dedicated Chrome memory stats summary page, as distinct from F12 memory which has specific memory…[Read more]

Haven’t seen bitter melon down here, could get it to grow against the wall of the house on a trellis, being an annual vine it will require a fair complement of water and nutrient to get it fruiting though. 🙂
Have the parts for the mixer come through yet? It can be heartbreaking to discard an old and trusty friend just because it’s gone in the…[Read more]

Neville Brand has certainly played many a villain, and Robert Englund, who can forget him? Got eyes on Sanitarium if and when the movie gets here. 🙂
Space Cowboys has not improved over time since the first viewing, in fact decidedly worse, so, despite the search for redeeming features and stellar cast, 5/10 at best.
In Road House, Ben Gazzara…[Read more]

A beautiful world indeed for a Hoochie Coochie Man!

Yes, thankfully, it just required coaxing out with gentle verbal and physical encouragement. 🙂
The tray on the A8 has two bays, one for micro SD and one for nano SIM. Came over with a mild turn of spook-a-loo after watching the video on how to convert a SIN to a nano SIM. These things are so small, you need HP Swiss tweezers and iris scissors as…[Read more]

Sounds great, a piccy of the kit and the up and coming work in progress workshop is very welcome!

Eaten Alive was pretty fun, even if the slasher wasn’t very good at the job description. He had to keep chasing his victims to get them. In most slashers, there’s not really a challenge until the end 😛

It also had a few familiar names!

And The Zero Boys was also a fun one, but a bit too much action flick for my tastes.

Yeah, I always get lost in the new settings setup when I get a new device. There’s always a lot more and some menus aren’t where they used to be 😛

Hopefully the SIM can be acquired with minimal fuss!

Finally got around to ordering the rest of the dissection tools 😛

In the “good old days”, such as they were, many trains had luggage compartments in the carriage, or an entire carriage for luggage, a caboose if you will. Different solutions are required today for the commuting cyclist of today, perhaps one or two carriages equipped with extra racks would do the job.

Interesting stuff on the radio today:

And related!

Thought I had posted it here but didn’t see it. Oh, well! The more the merrier!

And DEVO!

😀

That’s a real problem! We get slasher marathons from time to time OTA and Tubi has a dedicated category for them.

Yep, seen it. Thought it was really just a random combination of action scenes with a frivolous plot. Of course, my dad loved it. He just likes action in his movies, plot be damned. 😛

Saw this one yesterday and it…[Read more]

🙂 Jeepers, the “needle jumps” 50 secs in. Someone over there mentioned Lord of the Flies/Children of the Corn/Planet of the Apes, thus the moral of the story is: Fat wins the day? 😛
Yes, and newsflash read all about it, all those great films will never make it over on any of the umpteen fta channels over here. 🙁
Don’t recommend watching The One…[Read more]

Weird, Bergeron was a Frenchman, from a French family, with a motto on the fca in English. His father doesn’t have it, but Nicolas much earlier has it. She uploaded the image to the site with nary a historical reference, thus it has merrily propagated to other commercial heraldry sites like this with the usual beguiling authentic look.
Yeah the…[Read more]

Cool! Most video editing stuff is beyond me as I’ve never really messed with it 😛

The periodic name changes to xMM (First OBMM, then TESMM (or something), and then NMM) are rather problematic. The general name change was understandable but the latest one isn’t all that necessary. The issue is that other programs that rely on the current name…[Read more]

Need to share this one again:

It’s a classic! They show it on TCM periodically 😛

A quick reverse image search says that it’s similar to the tradition Stearns coat of arms and the one for this guy. There were a couple of others as well but those were the most similar 🙂

They didn’t give a timeframe, it was more of a call to action than anything. It mostly focused on how it would disrupt the ocean currents.

Over here, our buses have bike racks but they can only hold a couple of bikes. In other areas, people are starting to get folding bikes to more easily take with them but those can get heavy! 😛

Can be! A Google image search will reveal much, he might have based his mods on a real fca, you just have to find it. 😛
Posted a question over at Genealogy going way way back – you know, as Google search evolves to encompass more content, so do the the mysteries multiply. 😛

Interesting – the info on Wikipedia suggests a minimum time interval before melt as 1000 years, is it possible sooner?
Just a couple of posts back:

Toronto trains are trams on steroids

Over here, our commuter trains are trams on downers, and that’s on a good day!
And someone from Reddit said trackless trams are glorified buses. It matters little…[Read more]
