Really? I found it to be extremely mid. It took at least an hour for the film to not feel like a trailer montage and find proper pacing. The writing didn't feel organic at all, and felt like actors reading historical quotes from a page at each other. Also, when Florence Pugh's character started riding Oppenheimer's dick while he said his famous Bhagavad Gita line, I burst out laughing in the theater and had a really hard time taking the rest of the movie seriously.

I think this movie will be forgotten in 3 years, if not sooner.

Lmao, no it isn't. At best, it's made for people who are lightly into space/science and also lightly into cinema, so please don't trot out the "you need a high IQ to enjoy this movie" stuff. If it were made for space nerds, two scientists selected for deep space flight wouldn't need to stop and explain what E=MC² is to one another.

That's kind of always been Nolan's schtick, though, and I guess it's working out for him because he's got the a huge, quite passionate fan base. I'll never understand the hype and find his movies quite mid as cinema, but eh.

Awesome, thank you for the recommendations and the heads up! I'll definitely have to try some. Lately all my socks have been springing holes, so I'm excited to try some more durable ones

Omg I would love a gift like that! What is this mythical brand of socks?

Just a heads up, books are a very personal gift to give. I've never had it work out. Not saying you don't know your family, but it's hard to guess exactly what types of books they like. Especially if the only goal is encouraging her to read, that book will prob end up not being touched or given away.

I've had family I know really well gift me many books over the years, since I was a kid who liked to read, and it was always something I would never be interested in.

Now a Barnes and Noble/Books a Million gift card? Those are always awesome! Even though I know it feels lame to give gift cards. That could encourage her to get into a bookstore to shop for exactly something that catches her interest, and maybe shows her a whole series or author she can come back for, even!

Anyways, I hope you and your family have a happy and smooth holiday!

I just realized, if there was ever a wildlife photography mode in that game, I would play the shit out of it. RP-ing as an 'extreme' wildlife photographer trying to shoot around blizzards and keeping your gear in working order would be a really cool way to shake up the gameplay. Would easily get another 200 hours of play out of me.

Similarly, nonogram/picross puzzles. I have one on my phone that's called Hungry Cat Nonogram that I really like. It mixes up the formula by introducing different colored pixels into each row and columns. It's hard to explain, but very fun. It's the only game I keep on my phone

That's nice do you, but this is a privacy community. I don't think it's weird to think it's weird that a robot that connects to wifi maps out my house. Don't like it, don't want it.

OK cool! Sorry for all the questions, I'm looking into getting one and would like it to be as dumb as possible haha. Thanks!

Like the most recent one, or did you buy it several years ago?

Would you mind sharing what model it is, if you know offhand?

Does it need wifi or an app?
