So they bought the rights to the film IP so they could use the pretty pictures and slap a successful name on it, then completely butchered and marvelized the story. Why do they keep doing this to great sci fi?

It's been a long time since I played and I was never professional, but I just powered through. The calluses build up relatively quickly if you keep with it daily. Sometimes I wouldn't even play, just form chords for as long as my fingers would let me to reinforce the calluses
You could also try lighter-action strings. I've had some that were very heavy and absolutely not worth the pain. But as the saying goes, "you've got to pay your dues to play the blues"
This comic is as incomprehensible as the motivation behind these ghost accounts
I started it a few days ago and I'm halfway through. It has been completely engaging and original the entire time
About to trade in my weather apps for tea leaves and goat entrails
Preach it, brother/sister
Oh yeah, no. That sounds kind of exactly the same. Guess I'll have to read up lol
I went like 10 minutes with no stimulation (phone, tv, music, internet) and has an idea for a story in which all life on earth descended from a lonely super organism that kept splitting itself into smaller and smaller pieces so it could have more life to interact with, and the story unfolds in the reverse of the process as life becomes untenable on the planet and the super organism recompiles itself one death at a time as told through the eyes of a handful of characters who begin to acquire foreign memories as people and animals die
How progressive!
Arguably the movie makes the point harder to see. The book is a lot more clear about it. Similar to A Clockwork Orange

Sounds like Francis Galtin's Ox
"The classic wisdom-of-the-crowds finding involves point estimation of a continuous quantity. At a 1906 country fair in Plymouth, 800 people participated in a contest to estimate the weight of a slaughtered and dressed ox. Statistician Francis Galton observed that the median guess, 1207 pounds, was accurate within 1% of the true weight of 1198 pounds.This has contributed to the insight in cognitive science that a crowd's individual judgments can be modeled as a probability distribution of responses with the median centered near the true value of the quantity to be estimated."
