This year I would’ve loved to see A Real Pain but it was only showing at one theater near me and only for one showing that I couldn’t make. For original movies I actually had access to in theaters, last year I saw Dream Scenario, American Fiction, Polite Society, Theater Camp, Zone of Interest, Problemista and Poor Things. All great. I also watched Rotting in the Sun on Mubi’s app and it was just okay.

100%. I’m not buying into this bull shit “be outraged about this” campaign. Trump is a felon rapist and going into the WH again after a terrible first term and he’s stacking his admin with unqualified loyalists. I don’t care if Hunter was pardoned and no one else should either.

I picked kbin for no particular reason and then moved to lemmy. Kbin was a dumpster fire of spam and downtime. Seems to be permanently broken as of the last 2 months minimum

Because most people don’t exactly want a community-led social platform that respects you and empowers user freedom, even if some say they do.

Get off your high horse. I work for a software company, regularly participate in beta testing and am very tech literate. Mastodon was agitating to use when I signed up and not intuitive. The community I signed up in also deleted my account during a “whoopsie”. A terrible experience drove me off with no desire to go back for such a tiny and relatively stagnate user base on an unstable platform. If that was my experience, the average person will absolutely not like Mastodon.

Careful, don’t bring logic into this or offended white people might collectively ignore you entirely and keep complaining.

Hmm - I’ll have to research more on that. Thanks

Just a FYI, teflon products produced after the removal of PFOAs in 2013 are safe to use.

EDIT: Perhaps PTFE is also bad

Exactly - which would likely be a persistent necessary cookie on most websites.

Cookies are very small snippets of code that have a specific purpose. Making a one-size-fits-all cookie would make them complicated and much harder to track - which goes against the point of a cookie. Also, cookies are often independent of each other because they are from different providers/different tools. Having a one-size-fits-all cookie would also present a security hazard and make laws similar to GDPR about cookie tracking difficult to implement. An example of a tool that actually does use one cookie is Adobe’s Marketo. You can read some more about them here. https://termly.io/resources/articles/types-of-internet-cookies/

As someone who works in tech, I can confidently say that many people plainly do not understand what cookies do and why they exist. There are plenty of cookies that are good and useful, but third party advertising tracking cookies are the devil folks don’t like. Necessary, performance and functional cookies are all chill.
