Yeah, I really liked the movie and it's hard to describe exactly why.

It's not an amazing story, or amazing characters, it's not exciting....but it has a certain vibe/mood to it that I liked.

I was also a bit fascinated by Japan, so that's part of it. Got to visit a couple of times in the years after seeing the movie and whenever I've been in a Tokyo hotel room it's reminded me of the film!

Yeah, that's on my to watch list.

Yes, they are less prevalent due to Reddit and other social media sucking up a lot of the users.

They are still around though. One Australian forum that I've been on for years which is still very active is Whirlpool. Started as a tech forum and expanded. It's very useful as source of info as it's been around over 20 years and a lot of questions have been asked and answered there.

I watched Amsterdam, a 2022 comedy/mystery set in the 1930s, starring Margot Robbie and Christian Bale and a big cast of others including Mike Myers, Rami Malek, Robert De Niro and Chris Rock.

It is loosely based on The Business Plot, an actual political conspiracy in the US in the 1930s. I'd never heard of this before.

It was an interesting and 'different than the usual' type of movie. A lot of the focus was on the witty dialogue between characters. Pretty nice movie visually too. Overall I enjoyed it and would give it about 7/10.

Got stuck in hospital for a few weeks recently and used the opportunity to finally learn Affinity.

I'm now really liking it. Takes a few tries to get into it though.

I particularly like it on the iPad with the Apple pencil. A bit less so on my windows laptop.

I thought Mass Effect had a great soundtrack that really fit the game perfectly. Moody in parts and rousing in others.

I wondered the same thing.

It's definitely the best one after Sync.

Connect is awesome. The fact that it is only a month old and that good is honestly mind blowing and it's totally free with no premium options or ads. I have really enjoyed using it up until now.

I'm a previous Sync for Reddit user though and I do love the app. The customisation options are insane. I can literally make it look and act exactly how I want, even down to things like specifying download locations for pictures, whether they go into subfolders by community, whether pictures show up as media files in your gallery or are hidden, the spacing between comment lines, etc.... It's also customisable by account if you have multiple accounts, so all of this can be different or the same for each account.

So once you spend some time setting it up, it almost feels like you've designed your own interface/app.

It's hard to beat.
