@jamey Oracle bought Java with Sun and proceeded to ruin what was a flourishing ecosystem of open tools by routinely destroying any trust in the company.

@annika Does the person have big anxiety? It's possibly a coping strategy when one wants to enjoy reading but needs to know that it's going to be OK. Ask me how I know.

@annika The broken promise to her daughter explains so much of Ridley's motivation. It's strange that the scene was cut from the theatrical release, I feel.

@annika Do you mean the scene about her daughter added in the Aliens directors cut?
I guess in Resurrection she also bore a queen.
I suspect that JDV wouldn't like Ripley, regardless.

It was right there.

@annika ✅ workshop

@aral Oh, yeah. The overflowing list of effects with no indication of which ones are basic utils. It's confusing when getting started. The folders you mentioned are 💪.

@annika What?! No way.

@annika FWIW, I'd be fine with permanently suspending mastodons social and world. Also threads.social, obs.

For the life of me I can't remember the name of the film in which one of the minor bad guys is running up stairs behind the good guys but he trips, falls, and accidentally shoots himself in the head.
Do you remember?

@annika I attended a similar showing when the final film was released. It was good fun though I took breaks for meals and short strolls. The films have a lot of drudgery walking. Just so much.

@annika oh no

Hello, friends. Here is a gentle reminder that we are halfway through February and for a lot of people that's when SAD sneaks up and knocks them into depression. Take care of each other and yourself. Keep an eye out for friends in need. Maybe save a life or two.
