  7. @hkrn At least he's saying the "energy" piece out loud for all to hear.

    "We will quickly lose even the social permission to take something like energy, which is a scarce resource, and use it to generate these tokens, if these tokens are not improving health outcomes, education outcomes, public sector efficiency, private sector competitiveness, across all sectors, small and large, right?"

    'Scarce resource,' used for unnecessary shit, that no one asked for, to make themselves even richer, burning through the Earth's future because humans aren't using their own God given energy. Instead, robbing the planet to cheat time in order to get ahead. Maybe it's time to pull the plug on equity extortion and stop calling it efficiency?

  28. Saw a mention of the movie #TheFinalCountdown on Reddit, and was reminded of one of the coolest shots in an aviation movie ever.

    Filming was done on the actual USS Nimitz, her aircraft were used for all the hero aircraft.

    So, an A7 Corsair calls in with an arrestor hook failure. This is a very bad thing, they can't stop properly in time without one. So the Captain orders the barrier raised and the flight deck prepped for a crash. Crew runs out, gets the barrier up, gets out of the way, Corsair comes in, slams into the barrier. Medical rushes out to get the pilot, everything done with textbook precision.

    This wasn't an effect, wasn't a stunt flight, wasn't any sort of fakery. The A7 that was landing had an actual arrestor hook failure and the barrier recovery was 100% real emergency response, that just happened to occur during filming so they kept the cameras rolling and worked it into the story.

    Navy probably OKd it because it showed the crew of the Nimitz could handle things going absolutely sideways, which is an inevitability in war.

  33. Well, I binged a bunch of covers of The Final Countdown, and there was quite a few! For those who don't know me, it is my favourite song that ever was and ever will be.
    That being said, most of the versions were pretty lame.
    I have included a cover which I believe captures the spirit of the song best, apart from Europe, of course.
    But I have a soft spot for Jonathan Young's voice, so I put that too 🫠

  37. Can David Guetta stop ruining old songs, please?

    I was already pissed off with "Blue" changing meaning of the song completely.

    But this? This is both unnecessary and a travesty. He's really taken the soul out of the song. It has ruined it in such an unbelievably gratuitous way.

    Parents of #Fedi: if you find your kid is playing this, please have the decency to introduce them to the original.
